Included is the route for the entire network, and a representation timetable over 6 hours.

This simulation can be quite a challenge since in reality there are 2 signallers (+ a few more from the different PSB’s controlling the Chester, Ellesmere Port and Hunts Cross lines) both using ARS while you have none of that!
