Australian Railway Stations

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Been a few changes made to the Waypoint Signals.
Much thanks to Quast65 teaching me the code, I made a new set called Auz Fake Signals.
AUZ FAKE SIGNALS
============
These are Fake Signals.
They do not control trains.
They are platform tiles and can be part of other platforms. Trains will stop at these platforms if your train is set to stop all stations.
When a train moves on to the tile the signal will clear and when train passes the tile the signal will return to stop.
However if you use Path Signals ahead of these Fake Signals all fake signals will clear to green and return to red as your train pases them.
This diagram shows 3 lines. The far left using Path Signals and no fake signals. Next 2 show using both path signals and Fake Signals.
If you replace the Path Signals with Block Signals .. the Fake Signals will not clear until the train has entered the tile that Fake Signal is on.
I have not tested with Entry, Exit and Combo signals yet.
Intend to make several different types of these Fake Signals.
The signals on Gantries at the moment are not included with this set yet. I hope to add them when I get the others finished.
Would you like to test them and see what you think?

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Added the Signal Gantry Signals Waypoints and some signal boxes to the Fake Signals.
The small signal boxes with a signal you would often see to protect Level Crossings. 1st track using Block Signals .. the signal at signal box does not clear till train enters that tile.
2nd track using Path Signals, the signal will clear as soon as it passes the first Path Signal
and as can see by the 3rd track the signal returns to stop after all the train has passed it.
Here is the updated AuzFakeSignals with the WayPoints and Signal Boxes

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Update to Auz Fake Signals.
Added a few more Lower Quadrant Signals and also added some Upper Quadrant Signals.
Will see what shunting signals, point indicators and clearance posts I can do. Some will be Waypoints.
Here the latest version.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
I made up some Suburban Platforms.
these being Island Platforms: Booragul, Kotara, Warabrook, Hexham, and High Street.
and Single Sided Platforms: Cockle Creek, Sandgate and Taroo.
They are all unattended Stations. Do not have toilets or waiting rooms. Just a simple awning not much bigger then a bus shelter with just enough room for one seat and space for people to stand.
Most of them only have room for a 4 car DMU or EMU and some only enough room for a 2 car DMU.
I placed these with the Fake Signal set for now.
If like to try here the that file. Have not added any more Fake Signals since last issue.
You will find these platforms under "City Platforms Bitumen Surface".

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Completed a set of the modern style footbridges.
Intend to make some as Waypoints so can either use along as Waypoints or join the footbridges from the Single Sided Platforms and the island Platforms.
Here the updates file.
They have only be done for the City Bitumen platforms so far.Intend to make some as Waypoints so can either use along as Waypoints or join the footbridges from the Single Sided Platforms and the island Platforms.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Added a few more footbridge combinations to the Suburban Set.
The footbridges that cross railway lines where there is no platforms are Waypoints. It you want to only cross tracks with no platforms need to use to sets of waypoints as they only have the stairs one end.
There is a few more footbridges I intend to make for the island platforms .. At the moment at the top of stairs they go both directions .. intend to make some to go only one direction.
Anyway have a play and see what you think.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Had an outing today for a change .. was going to go train riding to Muswellbrook, but the service was replaced by buses, so I visited a few suburban stations to get some photos and see what I can add to the Suburban Stations I been doing past few days.
Discovered that the awnings I did on the Single Sided platforms are sloped the wrong way so will need to do them again.
And some of the stations I visited today has given me some more ideas.
I visited Fassifern, Awaba and Cockle Creek. The awnings at these locations are longer then other places I visited and I be able to get some ideas here for some non-track stations as well.
Last time I visited Awaba and Cockle Creek was back in the 1970s and all the original buildings and majority of the sidings been removed.
Awaba still has the old Jib Crane there, but goods platforms, sidings and sheds are all gone. Wanted to get photos of the Crane, but started to rain so I jumped on a train and started to make my way home. Hope to visit Awaba again soon and get photos of the old crane and see if I can make one for the game.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
That Bunnings up at Cockle Creek, plus the new roundabout and landscaping, has really transformed the area!
If I get a chance, I'll see if I can throw up a shot of Neath station. Obviously it's unused these days but I think it's cool that they've left the signs up.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
The last time I got off a train at Cockle Creek was at the old platforms when in the early 1970s they ran a steam excursion behind a Garrett from Newcastle and it terminated at the old platforms and used the old bridge to run around its train.Toffo wrote:That Bunnings up at Cockle Creek, plus the new roundabout and landscaping, has really transformed the area!If I get a chance, I'll see if I can throw up a shot of Neath station.

The old platforms at Cockle Creek and pylons to the old bridge across Cockle Creek are still there. Much of the old platforms is buried under dirt but can still see some of the brick work.
Been hunting for old photos of some of the smaller railway stations in the area but not easy to find some places. Usually when do find a photo of the smaller stations there is a train in the way blocking the view to the platforms and buildings.
Found some photos of railway stations at these 2 sites.
NSWrail.net at http://www.nswrail.net/
When There Were Stations at http://www.stationspast.net/
Railways and Railway Stations at https://www.flickr.com/photos/state-rec ... 064652134/
If you know of any other sites with NSW and other States that have photos of railway stations and infrastructure please let me know.

3. Dwarf Signals used at points (switchers).
4. This has a post with a blue sign and white writing. It is a Stopping Board to tell driver of long trains where to stop at short platforms. (These are found under Infrastructure as not sure where else to put them just yet).
Normally if you want a short platform, but have some long train stopping as well because long trains do not fit on the platform it suffers a loading-time-penalty. But by putting these Stopping Boards a head of the platforms this way you can still have the short platform but don't suffer from the loading-time-penalty.
I plan to change these suburban platforms I showing here by making the fences and lights non-track tiles .. this way they can be used with any platform set.
Other day when I went train riding and visiting suburban stations between Cardiff (Near Newcastle) and Awaba (towards Sydney) some had green fences, some had higher fences. So hope to make all these fence types available but will need to be non-track tiles.
You can have a play with what I done so far, but remember this set will change a lot with next issue.
These are from the AusFakeSignal set.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
This image showing new non-track tile fences. Two levels high and low fences. Was going to make green fences but they blend in to much with the grass so for now be just the white ones.
Need to make to sets one with the lights and one without.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
As well as the new fences idea also looking at changing the new footbridges so can be used with all platform designs.
They go on the end of platforms as I've seen in some stations in real.
They even work with the Dutch platforms and probably will work with other sets as well.
Still need to do other directions.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
I have one suggestion for the development of your project . You add more non-tracks tiles and tracks tiles in stations as in Dutch stations. I singled out the red line on the screenshots. You can try to do something similar, what do you have in Australia at stations. This really is not enough in Australian Railway Stations. It's all at your discretion. Although part has already been implemented. Just decided to show that even more will decorate the set of stations. In any case, it turns out great. I'm just playing with Australian Railway Stations. I am very happy with Australian Railway Stations, it looks very beautiful .GarryG wrote:As well as the new fences idea also looking at changing the new footbridges so can be used with all platform designs.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Thanks STD for your complements and suggestions.
I been visiting railway stations getting photos of platforms and footbridges, but I never thought of getting photos of Station Entrances like the Dutch Set. I don't normally exit the stations during my travels .. get off a train, take some photos of platforms and if any freight trains come along and get on next train and go to next station and do same till time to come home.
The stairs going to underground walkways is something I intend to make, but just haven't got to it yet.
In the Newcastle Suburban area there is only one station that has stairs to underground tunnels and that is East Maitland which I do have a photo of the stairs on the platform but not where it exits the station.
Hamilton has a small shop that sells Newspapers and snacks .. so something like this would look good.
Next time I go travelling I think some entrance photos to stations are in order.
I been working on the non-track tiles today with the new white fence design and this is where I am up to. Still need to make some with out the lights. Wish I thought of lights as non-track tiles before I release AuzStations Part 2, would have saved some space and made it a lot easier.
This file has these changes and those of the footbridge at end of platforms .. but these footbridges do not line up with Waypoint foot bridges. Hope to fix this in coming days.
Cheers

Being a retired OpenTTD developer does not mean I know what I am doing.
Re: Australian Railway Stations
I'm happy to help with ideas Thank you for the story about his trips to the railway station! And as for the pics. Waiting for something new. photo I like the view of the train stations themselves Beautiful You are doing a wonderful job .

Re: Australian Railway Stations
It winter here, doesn't snow where I am buy gets very cold .. some days to cold for me to be travelling and I find train stations are one of the coldest places.STD wrote:I'm happy to help with ideas
But we do get some nice days so hope in coming weeks see if I can make a few train journeys to different stations see what I can get ideas from with entrances there.
Looked at a few on Google Earth and most just have different entrances, car parking areas and a bus stop. They don't seen to have anything like Dutch Stations have such as gardens.
Railway stations here used to have lovely gardens and landscaping, but when they had staff reviews at those stations all staff there lost their jobs or were transferred to over stations and now those Stations are unattended and the gardens and landscaping is gone.

Re: Australian Railway Stations
Been train riding today and taking some photos at Awaba Railway Station.
Thought I share a few photos so you can see where I getting some of my designs.
The new awnings and shelter sheds based on this building at Awaba. The high and low fences based on these fences at Awaba and some other stations are like this too.
As can see this platform also has the ramps. Maybe they put the fences at the ramps so kids not ride their skateboards down the ramps). And this is a project I been wanting to make for a while .. a Jib Crane.
