Introduction

Hunts Cross combines three signalboxes- Hunts Cross, Warrington Central and Glazebrook East Jn- to give you control of most of the former CLC route from Liverpool to Manchester, as well as the southern end of the Merseyrail's 'Northern Line'. Traffic is a mix of stopping and express passenger traffic, with a frequent electric service crossing from the Liverpool Central line to platform 3 at Hunt's Cross.

You'll need to be quick to notice trains entering the area out of sequence- you get one chance to loop a stopping service at Glazebrook or Hunts Cross, otherwise the express is stuck behind it until Manchester or Liverpool South Parkway. For added interest, the lever frames at Warrington and Glazebrook have been simulated, as well as Absolute Block working between those two boxes.

Hunts Cross is a payware simulation- to play beyond a short demo period requires the purchase of a license from the Products area .
