Is there a simple map anywhere that shows current progress across the whole length of the TRU? Whats energised/active? What else is done? Whats coming next? Apologies if this a duplicate request or the location of said map is obvious.

Manchester, Blackpool, Great Orme, Paris, Munich, Amsterdam, Milan, Bern, Lisbon

Just looked through the last dozen or so shots on this thread and I am amazed at how good the latest Train Sim Offerings are these days - that 'is it a real photo' question is getting harder and harder to answer. So so much better than the original MSTS of 20 years ago which I worked with...

someone was suggesting that Marple Station was close enough to Romiley Station that their respective communities could be served by the other one

Romiley is a long way from Marple and there is the added inconvenience of the deep gorge containing the River Goyt between them bridged by the viaduct and famous aqueduct - it is also the ONLY convergence point of the two lines into Manchester so provides the interchange between the Piccadilly -...

thanks - thanks - makes sense, otherwise it would be no better than paired up voyagers (or even the old APT) with their need for two sets of train crew

which one is it? A or B? Or somewhere else?

I have a simple question about Class 755's - I notice they have a power pack carriage in the middle - does this form a barrier between the two halves of the train for passengers? Or is there a corridor through them?

Placement does look a bit odd...

5km (or 3 miles in real money) - hardly worth it... stick to buses

thank you for unpicking that shocking diagram!

Culdn't see any public transport after 8pm on a Saturday, sorry and no sunday service on the E5 :-(

Woodhead. And the associated CLC route from Godley to Glazebrook - forming a big chunk of a complete end-to-end route from Liverpool AND Manchester to Sheffield

tripping on the step at the entry to Epsom General banging our head we end up in A&E and are not discharged until 9.45AM Monday morning, at which time we then board the 10:00 Quality Line E5 service and get off at Watersedge, Hogsmill Way at 10:20

and when that Royal Assent is finally granted is it spades in the ground time? (fingers crossed)

That should get there next year

I live in Romiley and saw the Rail Replacement Buses last weekend

would love to see that line reopened - sadly even less likely than Woodhead

All change now it would seem - this may be possibly because the A555 road scheme has finally cleared its last approval hurdle - this road WAS a higher priority for Stockport previously

these kind of efforts should be reserved for Computer Simulations IMHO - the 40 odd miles of the my 2003 MSTS Woodhead Route were more than enough for me to put together - and of course a physical model would need to include the correct inclines... tricky
