LU East London Line - BVE2 & BVE4


Issued on 21st July 2005, Two weeks after the London Transport atrocities.

We dedicate the new 'A' stock train and this version of the 'East London Line' to those whose lives were lost in the London Transport bombings on the morning of Thursday 7th July 2005. Also to the Emergency Services and London Underground staff, who bravely took part in the evacuation and rescue operations.

This is an authentic BVE route written by Richard Gellman. Updated July 2005 by Steve Green with realistic signalling and gradients, also support for BVE4. It covers the Southbound line between Shorditch and New Cross Gate. We also unveil a brand new 'A' stock train with new sounds and photorealistic cab for use on the route.

Route Overview

The routes feature the peak service from Shoreditch and an off-peak working starting from Whitechapel. Night versions of the route are also included. The BVE4 version also contains a rainy day varient.

All gradients, distances, positions of curves, pointwork, stations and signalling is modelled accurately. Signalling is, however very slightly simplified slightly owing to limitations of BVE.

Signalling


Please see the >LU Signalling< page for details on how the underground signals work.

Important notes on running and installing : Please read this carefully, I shall say this only once!

The route features realistic London Underground Ltd signalling. To make the signalling work, you need some special LU signals :-

BVE 2.6.x :

After installation, go your main BVE folder, you'll see a subfolder called "LU_Northern_Signals"
Run the signal install batch file
contained within before running the routes.
The other batch file in the folder will revert the signal types back to your existing ones when you are finished.


BVE 4.x :

LU signal installation is automatic. You need to do nothing.
