    BVE: Southeastern line

    Sweet only one critism is about the curve, can you use switch? as that gives you an option to create smooth curves.

    On the whole thumbs up

    Looks nice ! Same remark as Central trains, the smooth curves would be a very good thing. (Using Switch or Luigi's Curve10.xls).

    Good luck for that project !

      The station is definitely Maidstone! Well done!

      I have looked in the 'search box' with no results, but wasn't someone having a go at the Maidstone West to Strood line? I remember a couple of screenshots?

        Just a small question... Why are the 3rd rails red?

            Yes, I know it should not be that colour.
            It seems to look better like that. Also I believe that Steve Green's Southern V1 had 3rd rails that were that colour.

            Thanks for all the positive comments. It's my first real attempt on building a route. I have not tried using the smooth curve utility. I have just been using the old method so far.

            I have not heard of anyone doing the Strood line, but my line passes over it here. I'm hoping to go up to Otford, maybe even Victoria.

              No it wasn't. I think it was grey/silver, like the original LU tracks' 4th rail.

                For smooth curves, I use the SWITCH utility. make sure you select the option that turns the angle to the inside.

                    I forgot to mention that I will put the route on the database but am not able to at present as I'm on holiday.

                            I have been working on a Kent line. It is the line from Bearsted-Maidstone East.

                            These are my screenshots of Maidstone East and Bearsted. Some objects are from other people's work. I hope they don't mind me showing these screenshots.
