I've yet to figure out the signals myself. Is nice they modeled it in such detail (I'm impressed, doesn't happen often), but a bit more detail/clarity in some documentation would be nice.

Much to my surprise, the years had advanced in my departure, by about five in fact, so I was rather lucrative, the loans were all paid off, and the locomotives upgraded from Cramptons to Johnson Goods class as the Cramptons were now getting rather unreliable.
A new locomotive is now on the scene, the '2-2-0 Edwardian', aka the Midland Railway 1000 class:

1913....something ominous appears in the skies...

Doom...crawls across the landscape...

The KLM Lucifer and The slow Zeppelin of Doom take to the sky.

Bonus points if you get the real names of these men and what they did. :yep:

I do have one request though, if a person has to leave the game early, can we not continue the game without them, as I think it is a little unfair. After all, they cannot respond to new vehicle offers, they cannot replace old vehicles and they cannot expand. Yes, they will gain money, but if their fleet becomes ancient and unreliable then eventually they will begin to dip and perhaps even lose money. Furthermore, if one of their vehicles is destroyed, they cannot replace it.

:03: Interesting but pointless fact, the flower stall that Buster Edwards ran under Waterloo station until his suicide in '94 is still there with BUSTER written on the side.

BTW Hunter you sod, I should have twigged what you were up to with so many buses and trams...the old 'improve reputation with thousands of bus services' trick. No wonder you shot up the chart. :damn:
