Thank you for downloading this route.

This has been an ongoing project spanning almost 6 years all at the hand of Morgan Roberts.

Correct signalling to match track layout for 2018+
Route scenery set upto the current date in 2025

Additional Comments

Notes for scenario creators:

You may need to use markers to ensure trains are pathed correctly.
Markers have been already placed in areas where pathig issues were common.
It is advised to set the seasons to either Summer or Autumn for the route to look its best, due to
Spring and Winter removing a lot of the vegetation, making the route look bare in places.

I would like to thank everyone in the Train Sim community who has shown
interest in this project throughout its development. I would also like to thank
the team at ‘On Track Simulation’ for assistance with releasing the route, and
to ‘Train Sim Community’ for hosting the route on their website. I would also
like to credit OTS for allowing their common library, and Cynx/4AS for allowing
their Signage Pack, to be included with the route.

If you come across any errors with the route or would like to leave feedback,
please do so via the ‘North Wales Coast Revamped’ Facebook page. I will
have very limited time to dedicate to Train Sim going forward, therefore
ongoing support cannot be guaranteed.

Any freeware third party updates or fixes to the route, as well as scenarios, are
more than welcome to be uploaded for others to download.

Thanks

You require the North Wales Coast Line: Crewe - Holyhead route from Steam, not the original NWC Crewe to Llandudno route.

That did the trick. Thanks :)

I'm having issues with AP track not applying to the route?
I've attempted to clean uninstall the route multiple times with reinstalling the track?

AP track appears in the origianl NWC, however not this one

ChiefJack 8 Mar 2025

I've had no issues with the Track EP here. If the AP track is showing for your on the TfW version of NWC from Steam, there's no reason why it shouldn't be showing for you on this route.

StephenB 7 Mar 2025

Lovely piece of work, thanks. I have a bit of track missing on the way into Chester from signal CR116, but that could be because I'd forgotten to reinstall the AP Track EP. The vegitation is also overly lush (and impinging on the track) in some places, but that could be due to the Veg EP, which it wasn't designed for. So far, no issues with the Signal EP.

ChiefJack 8 Mar 2025

Thanks. The missing track into Chester is scenario specific and is an issue caused by the last minute asset swap from the discontinued NWC to the newer TfW version that's still on sale. It has been fixed for an upcoming update. The vegetation is perfectly fine without the Veg EP, so that's the cause of your issue there.

StephenB 8 Mar 2025

Thanks again. I think if there was one thing that is a testament to how good this is, as someone who doesn't know the area, is the fact that nothing leaps out at you. The quality is so consistent and everything just feels right. Morgan has done a lovely job.

ChiefJack 8 Mar 2025

Morgan really has done a sterling job with this as you say!

ChiefJack 30 Mar 2025

Is your scenery density set to the highest it can be in the TS settings menu?

Paul 31 Mar 2025

BKNT 13 Apr 2025

Hey. I am having an issue where a signal gantry just after Chester North JN and some of the signals between Flint and Prestatyn are missing?

ChiefJack 23 Apr 2025

Do you have the latest version of the JT CL installed?

Giuliano65 27 Apr 2025

Hi .
I have just installed North Wales Coast Revamped V1.1.
I will start by saying that I have also installed AP Vegetation EP pack and Signal EP Pack. I have currently "run" the 1D12 09:08 Birmingam Int. to Holyhead scenario and I have not encountered any problems and I must say that it has been a really nice run.
Congratulations on your work.
