Maybe it's a cool idea (for the future) to merge both Simvliet and Rijndam maps to create a rail connection (both regular railway and a HSL) between the cities, like the connection between Rotterdam and Breda?

Well, we do ofcourse want to be able to use this train to it's full potential
Merging Rijndam and Simvliet isn't an option at the moment, but we can add a section of HSL to the Rijndam rail network....
Including changeover between ATB-EG and ETCS (level 1) at both ends.
In cooperation with Senjer, who provided the masts for the overhead wires and new track foundations.

(Current status; building scenery around the new destination station. So for those who were wondering what is after Ypenburg.... )

Sjoerd I'm flabbergasted!

The Intercity terminus?

So does that mean this protection system is being overruled by the ETCS?

Will the new terminus of the T4 on Rijndam be anywhere near to Rijndam Zuid - for a better connection to Intercity and RR services to Yprenburg and further?

Wrong topic
You need to be here for that question: http://sim.bemined.nl/forum/viewtopic.p ... start=2270

But to answer it; no, the new T4 terminus is not close to a train station. Transfer between trams (on line T4) and trains will be at Rijndam Centraal.

Back in the day I was really looking forward into creating my own security system with lightsignals included (in other words; creating a customized ATB-system). Nowadays I'm not really into that much of fiction anymore, so it's now (which I'm currently working on) going to be the normal RET-ATB for the rapid transit and ZUB222c for the light rail.

I like the idea of having ATB blocks with posted signals at juctions only. That's how it is in the US on light and heavy rail transit systems.

I wonder how long this line will be

A new train line, where do you go?
