All righty, let's use our massive knowledge of the UK and the UKRS2 to create a text-based, forum-based train sim
Date: 1920
Goals: Construct the East and West coast main lines
No money restrictions.
Be realistic.
I'll start
Hello everyone, and welcome to London Kings Cross station for the first service on the London and Peterborough Railway. After purchasing a trio of 2-6-0 Moguls, we've started the following service
London Kings Cross
Finsbury Park
Stevenage
Cambridge
Peterborough
Each train pulls six Clerestory carriages and a Siphon mail car. Our service is making a small loss, but that could soon change.

I don't mean to be rude, but there's this game called OpenTTD where you can actually build trains and rails and things and re-enact this?

[planefun]

I know, but I suck at multiplayer. Just a way to bring people together!

[Opan]

Yes as did I when I first played OTTD online. But if you watch a game or two in one of the more popular servers (luukland etc.) you can learn some things from other players. Or just look around in the screenshot thread, there's plenty of stuff there.

[planefun]

Sure. Why don't you give this a go, matey!

[Badger]

Think I'd rather just play the real game!
Oh and Cambridge isn't really between Stevenage and P'boro, something of a 60-mile diversion that!

[planefun]

Oops. Make that a branch line.
