Notes: Gravesend Clutter isn't finished (Had to focus on quick drive)
Some quick drives may not work 

  • Quick Drive from Victoria / St Pancras to Faversham / Sheerness (with AI on 3rd rail sections)
  • Replaced All London to Faversham track with Chatham Mainline track texture
  • Replaced all roads to include new cars
  • Replaced all "Kuju" platform lofts to newer texture (where possible)
  • Replaced Whistle Signs with Track Linked ones
  • Fixed various platform lofts that were broken
  • Fixed AWS Ramp issues at Sheerness / Sittingbourne "Triange"
  • Replaced all Pylons with wired versions
  • Retained Old Rochester Intact, as well as old Rainham and Gravesend
  • Added missing bridge at Queenborough + Adjusted surrounding scenery
  • Added pylons to sheerness branch area
  • New Gravesend (as much as i can - still has old footbridge)
  • New Rochester (as in Chatham Mainline)
  • 2016 signalling between Rochester / Strood and Sittingbourne 
  • Removed sidings from Queenborough Area (as no longer there )
  • Added lots of Grass / Weeds to disused siding
  • Removed P1 at Battersea Park and Extended P3 (although a bit pointless for this route)
  • 1.2 Fixed Floating Buffers at Sheerness (and replaced a couple of Cars)
  • 1.2 Added OSS at Sheerness on Sea platforms
  • 1.2 Fixed Floating 3rd Rail between Rochester and Sole Street
  • 1.2 Floating 3rd Rail at Newington (I think?)

  • 1.3 Added Second Barrier to Gillingham Crossing
  • 1.3 Removed second - 6 Car Stop sign at Gravesend
  • 1.3 Fixed 3rd Rail Issues East of Gravesend
  • 1.3 Fixed AI at Faversham on Quickdrive (Southbound) heading into wrong portal
  • 1.3 Fixed Directionality Issue at Gravesend P2
  • 1.3 Added Consts Spawn Point at Rainham P0 (60% chance of seeing something - Southbound) 

    Also noted - Quick Drive routing issues where it was crossing over to the track many times from St Pancras - but could reproduce this. (Changing points were mentioned - but you can't change points in quick drive - unless manual )


Bug Fixing
Both Routes

  • Improved Beckenham Junction area (Waitrose) - not the best but removed horrible warehouse and replaced with another warehouse - hopefully better. 
  • Added Portal After Ebbsfleet area. 
  • Fixed Quick Drive issue into Victoria
  • Fixed Red Light Issue Exiting Victoria to Faversham
  • Removed AI heading into Faversham on Quickdrive (Northbound)
  • Added more carriage sidings AI to quickdrives (where possible)
  • Removed Two AWS ramps for speed changes on crossovers
  • Fixed strange issue with Points around Sheerness
  • Added Church to Chatham Area near station
  • Fixed strange tunnel issue North of Dagenham Area
  • Other minor fixes that I've forgotten about (I only wrong this list near the end)



Notes - Can't add Southern or other rolling stock to AI because of how it is set up - if i add the route to the Southern / FCC stock it will appear everywhere), the Javelin is similar in that it would also appear in the wrong places. 

2016 - 

  • Finished Gravesend area (can't fix the footbridge unfortunately)
  • Levelled Terrain north of Rochester
