English Teamwork 2 planning and discussion

[1993matias]

Phew, I'm glad I didn't clash with any of your changes!

If the golden letters and the moon are on the south side, the compartments will be on the north side - the coastal side. But considering the timings of night trains in Montspoor, I don't think all that many passengers will be enjoying the view at 5 am. It works great for me!

I will slowly be preparing the layout for the introduction of IC services by adding the required timing points, data at switches, speed limits, etc. This will take place over some time, so there will be several small updates released on the drive - probably without announcements. The trains themselves will not be added until everything is finished.

PS: If some of the IC trains were to contain auto-carriers to Cairndow, do you have a preference as to which side of the train they should be coupled to?

[1993matias]

There has been a minor update probably fixing a couple of dispatcher messages. Other than that a lot of preparation for IC lines in Montspoor has been done. They will hopefully be fully implemented before the end of September

Glück auf,
after some absence I’ve tried to build something new, and the new sub-version is available as New_EN-Teamwork-v59f.nt3 on the Drive. New are some harbour piers of Warstones and Hull.

Ferry M/V Dragonstone was launched and is busy shuttling between Warstones, Harrogate on the island of Dragonstone and Crab Town on the island of Claw Isle; alternating between the seaside termini. Note that the harbours are not yet finished, so passengers have to swim to the shore or otherwise organize last mile travel on their own.

Another two ships, M/V Driftmark Castle and M/V Driftwood Throne, were launched as well and are ferrying cars and passengers on the longer route to Hull on the larger island of Driftmark. Preparations for loading trains onto the ferries were seen as well. Note that these ships might look to the casual observer like a train—but that’s just an optical illusion!

Further construction was paused, as there were some urgent phone calls neccessitating attention:

A load of signal counter over- and underruns, then at 9:28:04 engine M / R1 # 1020 was blocked at a red signal, which apprently led to some missed departures down the line.

Oh no, that's not good! I can take a look on Wednesday at the earliest. My apologies for the inconvenience caused
