Beattock

Area centred on Beattock loops and extends from MC751 and MC750 near Wamphray North to MC701 and MC704.
In 1980 there was a loco siding at Beattock where the bankers awaited their next turn to shove a train up to Summit.
To facilitate that there are two era specific locations

Burnhouse

Another relatively compact area to the North of Mossend. Relatively few timetable locations linked.
The Mossend North location includes reversing behind Signals M(Y)306, M(B)302, M(B)296 and M(B)298 with the correct signal selected by adjusting the stopping point – see table for distances.

Carmyle

Fringes with Glasgow Central and stretching to M123/M124. The 1980 era includes the branches to Clydebridge and to Newton via Westburn. The Westburn line works automatically either sending trains into the sidings at Westburn, or continuing through to Newton UGL. The line occupied light illuminates when the through line is occupied and clears if the train enters the sidings at Westburn. Trains from Wesburn sidings will phone panel 1 for permission to enter.

In late 1990 the passenger service was restarted.

Carstairs

Area bounded by signals MC402 and MC403 to the North and MC460, MC459 to the south and the boundary with Edinburgh.

Carstairs station used to be a hive of activity with the Edinburgh portions of the Glasgow to Birmingham etc trains joining and dividing mostly hourly, now very few trains even stop but the Lowland sleeper still joins and divides. The joining move was for the Edinburgh portion to normally arrive first, halt in either platform then move off to the UPL. The Glasgow train would arrive (normally P2) and then the portion set-back to join up. The Edinburgh loco then entered the up sidings (either way) awaiting the next northbound train to arrive (normally to P1). In anticipation of arrival the loco would move off to Signal MC428 then drop down to the rear of the train.

Ravenstruther (pronounced Renstrie) coal terminal opened around 1990.

Fauldhouse

Located at Fauldhouse the area extends from the Edinburgh fringe to Cleland stations. The Benhar sidings area has changed over the eras with Polkemmet Colliery in the 1980s era. Sim version 4.3.0 extends the Sim to Midcalder Jn and includes the stations of Livingston South and West Calder, in that order from entry.

Gartsherrie

Gartsherrie was the last area to be subsumed into Motherwell box and in the 1980 era was still a mechanical box with semaphore signals. Trains entering from Garnqueen will populate the Approaching TD berth before the train enters. This will allow you sufficient warning to lower and clear Heatherbell crossing and not delay the train. The single line to Gartcosh is controlled by a slot for Down trains; Up trains will enter without permission. The slot is required is you wish to shunt a train behind MG930/GS9. Trains entering from Coatbridge FLT will phone for permission to exit FLT. Trains booked to reverse at Gartsherrie Spur may use either the Spur itself or reverse behind MG930 on the Gartcosh Single.

Haughhead

In 1980 and 1990 this area was called Ross Junction . The main feature of the area is the Larkhall branch reopened in 2005.
The branch is has an auto-working function generally used during the off-peak service. The default platform is 2 but 1 will be selected if 2 is unavailable.

Hamilton

Hamilton area extends from Blantyre to the single line through Barncluith tunnel. In an earlier time there was a DMU depot where the Hamilton Sidings are near Hamilton West.
Due to current Sim limitations the cross-over to the single line is a split single TC. Signal M226 will not clear unless points 55 are Normal or a route is set from M228, or M226 is in auto mode. Various controls and 120sec timeouts apply to when you can set a route from M228.

Lanark Jn

Lanark Junction Relay room covers quite a small area between just South of the Junction (M573) to M566/M567 to the North and the line to Lanark. As well as the station at Lanark there is a level crossing at Cleghorn, just North of the Junction, that is now a CCTV controlled crossing but was previously an AHB. In the 1980s era there was a yard at Lanark accessed via one of two Ground frames. The Lanark line has an auto-working facility for platform 1.

Mossend South

This area covers the Mossend South, West and East Junctions. There are a number of era differences in 1980: Ravenscraig and Clydesdale steelworks and an additional down goods line to Mossend Yard; at Holytown there’s also the Fullwood sidings. At Mossend West there are Ground Frames in 1980 and 1990 eras but in 2000 the points are controlled, though there are no signalled routes over them.

Due to limited clearances, up and down train shouldn't be signalled simultaneously between Mossend East and South Junctions.

Mossend Yard

The area extends from the North Junction MY325/MY323/MY311/MY317 through the up and down reception lines. The main difference between eras is the additional down reception lines (3&4) in 2000 and the Goods line from the South Junction (1980).

2000: access to the reception lines 3 & 4 require slots to be granted by the Yard. The slot is not required for MY319 (coal siding) to 4 and MY310&MY319 can have the opposite routes simultaneously set.

Track Circuit 2127 has a POL for MY325/MY323/MY321 and 2124 has a POL for MY315. Note that if you set a forward route then cancel it the POL does not reset – this is a Sim limitation but is primarily cosmetic.

All eras: Trains entering the Down yard from Down Reception 1&2 are controlled by signals MY311 and MY309: these are fixed Reds with a PL controlled by Mossend Yard Control. For Sim purposes the user must left click on the relevant signal in lieu of the controller. After a random period of time (up to 10 mins) the signal will clear. After the train has entered the controller may or may not remember to restore the signal switch. If he forgets then you can phone and request the reset.

A similar arrangement applies to Signal M307 except there you have to set the route in before awaiting the controller to clear the signal. If only the front portion of a train on the Down Goods is proceeding past M307 into the Down yard, it will be necessary to phone the controller once the front portion has proceeded, to request that the signal switch is restored and allow a second route to be set.

Other restrictions: Routes from signals MY350/MY352 can’t be called if points 112 are Reverse; Points 99 can’t reverse unless Points 112 are Normal and Down Goods is occupied for at least 60 seconds or the Down Goods is unoccupied.

Routes from MY299/MY297/MY295 can’t be called if points 103 are reverse and routes from MY316/MY318/MY322 to MY340/MY358 can’t be set of points 94 are Reverse. There appears to be no restrictions on the points reversing after a route has been set.

Motherwell North

Motherwell North area extends from the middle of the platforms down past Braidhurst to signals M372/M366 on the Coatbridge lines and down the main to M381/M382. Area includes Logans Rd level crossing and several Ground Frames as well as Weighs Carriage siding, the operations of each is covered in the relevant sections. Long stopping trains at platform 2 (e.g. East Coast trains) are supposed to stop beyond Signal M399: occupying TC343. The operation is explained in Motherwell South (below) and currently there is a specific Platform 2 location that takes the train to the correct stopping points.

Points 177 and 179 have optional "via" buttons to select the non-preferred route across them.

Motherwell South

Quite a complex area starting mid platforms at Motherwell and covering the Hamilton lines towards Haughhead/Ross Junction and the WCML through Shieldmuir to signals M483/484.
The 1980s layout has the Shieldmuir yards and sidings and some of the connections with the Ravenscraig steelworks. In later eras we have the Royal Mail Terminal.

In 2000 era there is an overlength test at T459 for long trains (over 228m) approaching Platform 2. This was primarily for the East Coast trains that have a stop point beyond the platform end on TC343, these trains are not allowed to proceed past M423 unless M399 is OFF. Currently I’ve created a special Platform 2 timetable location. I hope that in later releases it will be possible to use the common Motherwell location. The reason is covered in the section on ARS.

When signalling trains towards Wishaw Oil terminal you should use the triangle as the route “exit” point and not the Shunt signal.

Newton

Centred on Newton station the area fringes on Cathcart and Glasgow Central boxes on the down and then up to Uddingston at Sigs M178/M179 and towards Blantyre Sigs M179/M202.
The 1980 era includes the branch to Carmyle via Westburn. The Westburn line works automatically either sending trains into the sidings at Westburn, or continuing through to Carmyle. The line occupied light illuminates when the through line is occupied and clears if the train enters the sidings at Westburn. Trains from Wesburn sidings will phone panel 1 for permission to enter.
In 1990 era the connection with the Main lines was singled and the loops abolished.
Terminating trains from Cathcart tended to stand over behind M155 in the 1980 era but a dedicated siding was made available in later eras when the track was rationalised.

Signal M147 is permanently collard now and this is included in the 2000 launch package.

Ross Junction

Ross Junction exists in the 1980 & 1990 eras and became Haughhead Junction in the 2000 era.
In 1980 there was a coup (rubbish tip - pronounced cowp) accessed by a Ground frame. At the time the location was on Panel 4 but the area is coded as Panel 1 (Haughhead Junction) so all phonecalls and reports will come through as Panel 1. This due to current Sim limitations. Once the necessary coding is available this will be revised.

Whifflet

Area covers the Whifflet , Coatbridge area between Whifflet South Junction and Coatbridge FLT and along the Carmyle line to signals 262/261.

The 1980 layout includes the Imperial Works branch and some additional signalling in the Langloan area. Many of the heavy steelworks trains halted there on the Up line towards Whifflet North Junction to take on a banker up towards Mossend. There is a TRTS button at M278 to alert the box once the banker is attached.
Trains accessing Coatbridge FLT require a slot from all signals as do trains heading for Yoker IECC at Sunnyside Junction. Coatbridge station in the UP line is actually in the overlap of Signal M254/M252 which made the ARS coding difficult. Terminating trains will require one or other onward route coded in the timetable.

In late 1990 the passenger service was restarted on the Carmyle line to Wishaw.
