BML and Sussex Station Pack

Description
This pack offers a grand total of 69 stations to get you started on building the BML and Sussex areas in NIMBY Rails. Speed limits are accurate with acceptable signal placement using data from the Sectional Appendix and Open Rail Map. Can you make the Brighton Mainline bearable or will you strangle your monitor trying to thread the Thameslink rush hour services? Only one way to find out...

Due to overlap with the Wessex and SWML region, some stations from that pack have also been included out of convenience, such as around London and the West Coastway areas.

You require MissCatTrap's UK Platforms and Tracks, as well as the Invisible Tracks addon for Battersea Park and P2 at Portsmouth Harbour.

This pack includes the following station blueprints:
Barnham
Battersea Park
Bedhampton
Bognor Regis
Burgess Hill
Caterham

ADDITONAL NOTES:
- The Brighton Mainline technically offers bi-directional running between Balcombe and Preston Park-ish. Due to NIMBY Rails limitations, attempting to recreate this is HIGHLY discouraged.
- P3 at Brighton is usable by both West Coastway and BML services, however this is not possible to have both the full platform and it's shortened WC length in NIMBY Rails. As a compromise, it's set to it's WC length of 143m (6 cars maximum.)
- East Croydon's platform layout can pose problems for Gatwick Express trains in NIMBY Rails, as trains cannot be re-directed onto other platforms unless they are stopping at a station. I don't have much advice for now other than "tread with caution."
- London Bridge's signalling needs to be adjusted for what is best to do due to the bi-directional tracks, which can cause collisions if not correctly sorted.
- OSM data around Redhill was a bit borked so I had to do some slight guesswork. Apologies if the junction is a bit wrong.
- Gatwick's speed limits were questionable on the Sectional Appendix, so I adjusted them according to a cab ride. Apologies for any inaccuracies.
- The Croydon Tramlink is NOT included on the Croydon and Mitcham blueprints.

Thanks and have fun!

Could be me, but i'm missing a lot of stations. The most complex ones are included, but Red Hill for example is not in the list

I'm currently updating the Euston pack I did to be expanded with a bunch of WCML, North West and North Wales stations. In fact, I did an update for it today :)

hey i was wondering got any more planned:) like gwr or others?

It's ok! I don't think those mods count as a blueprints, that's why. POIs and Demand Curves are categorised differently would be my guess.

Hey there, this is a bit of a random question, but I wonder how you've added the Blueprints tag onto your mod? I can't figure out how to tag my demand curves and POIs through steamcmd so I'm wondering if there's a trick I might be missing.

Sorry for dropping in randomly like this!
