Looking superb as always! You always inspire me to create my own network but I always just end up with a station and nothing else
What spline are you using the for the platform extension?

Is it possible if I can edit the Watley Junction route, extend it, and rename it? I'm thinking of having it use LBSCR South London EMU stock and catenary.
Well done so far!

The original Watley Junction is not my route, you'd have to ask Meyshollop for permission to edit it.

What I meant to say is that your version of Watley Junction looks fantastic. However, I think I'll just work on a brand new LBSCR South London Overhead route from the ground up.

A little bit more progress:
Made some changes to
Watley - the station has been reduced from 4 to 3 platforms. Considering the end goal was for most services to run through to
Poppy Lane, having 3 bay platforms seemed excessive. So platforms 1 and 2 are now disusedand overgrown, and the Poppy Lane branch has been double tracked, resulting in a new platform 5:
The Poppy Lane section has now been electrified! Finally the entire route is covered by OHLE, with the exception of the temporary DMU depot. The first electric train to run the full route was the 10:09
Lightwood -
Poppy Lane service, formed of unit 478528:
Picking up at
Deepfields:
Leaving
Lower Watley:
Sitting at
Poppy Lane after terminating:
The train then returned back towards
Watley:
Since the complete timetable is not yet in effect, 478528 had to terminate at
Watley on its return journey:

Hi guys, after a long time tinkering, I believe this route is almost ready for release. Huge thanks to Meyshollop for allowing me to modify his original Watley Junction route!
I just have to do a bit of tidying up, making sure there aren't any non-DLS assets still lurking about, and finish tearing my hair out trying to get the AI to behave consistently for the automatic session. For some reason it works perfectly* on one PC, but on the other the trains end up clumped at one end of the route getting in each other's way...
%$*£!!!
* I say perfectly, that is of course perfectly for the Trainz AI. Meaning it generally leaves a station +/- about a minute or so of the timetable, but that's mainly because the "wait until minute" command should actually be called "wait until some random time somewhat close to the minute you asked for"

Okay guys and gals, I think I'm now at the point where this route is ready for release.
Before I do though, I'd appreciate it if a few people could test out both the route and accompanying automatic session, just to check there aren't any stray dependencies or glaring bugs/things I've forgotten.
If you'd be interested in helping me out, send me a PM!

No not yet, I haven't managed to get it finished off yet. It's definitely on my list of things to do though!
