[JT] Midland Main Line: Hope Valley

Eine interessante Strecke. Auch, dass Just Trains hier wieder die Möglichkeit schafft, diese an das bestehende Strecken-Netzwerk der Midland Main Line anzuschließen, macht die ganze Sache nicht gerade unattraktiver…

Ich bin gespannt auf weitere Bilder aus der Entwicklung.

Es gibt Neuigkeiten bzgl. der Hope Valley Extension

Here's a quick development update on the Midland Main Line: Hope Valley.

You'll find below a new selection of in development screenshots showing the latest progress on the route. These feature a cement train on the section between Bamford and Chinley as well as a group of images showing 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' on a railtour navigating the steep climb to Cowburn Tunnel before racing through Edale and onwards through Hope towards Grindleford.

Hope you like the shots, aim is to bring more news and new shots prior to the New Year.

Here's our first Development Update on the Midland main Line Hope Valley Line for 2022.

The route is progressing nicely and the scenery has been heavily expanded across the core of the Hope Valley between New Mills Junction and Dore & Totley.

Work between New Mills Junction and Hazel Grove is close to completion too and we'll show more from that section later when we are in a better position to share images with you all.

The images you see here feature several areas such as Grindleford, Hope Earles Cement Works & Sidings, Chinley, Hathersage and more.

We do 'hope' you enjoy these latest shots.

Here's the latest update on the Midland Main Line: Hope Valley Line. This entry features some new areas of the route that have yet to be revealed, areas such as New Mills Central Station, New Mills South Junction Signal Box, Buxworth, Chapel Milton Viaduct, Hazel Grove Chord and Reddish North Station.

You'll also notice the final shot in this batch is a very early WIP shot depicting Manchester Piccadilly station, more from the station as it progresses. Hope you like the new bulky buffer models that have also been created for the terminating platforms. There's still a fair amount of work to go into the model such as the concourse area which we will show off soon. We hope for now this image gives you a taste of what's to come!

As usual all areas featured are still under Work In Progress and are subject to change.

We're glad to be able to bring you our next Development Update as progress on the route speeds up.

Below you'll see a selection of shots showing off Manchester Piccadilly Station with various views of the model and all new clutter. This task has been solely in the hands of our in-house asset developer Callum.

The content shown is as usual WIP, with surrounding scenery still to be completed and OHLE not yet placed in the area. We hope you enjoy this first look at what will be a very important focal point of the upcoming route. Enjoy the pics!

This update brings you some shots of areas we've yet to feature including a number of new stations and bridges along the route. The route crosses several rivers, the River Goyt and River Tame to name a few and there are a number of viaducts and aqueducts which allow the railway to cross or pass under these waterways.

The stations on show are: Marple, Hazel Grove, Woodsmoor and Davenport. And that's not all, also included are some first-look Work In Progress shots of Stockport Station. The model itself is pretty much finished and and just requires clutter to be added. This station will be a very busy one and you'll most certainly find yourself calling there when running various scenarios.

We're not too far from completion of the main route but there will be further updates to follow pretty soon. Hope you enjoy these latest shots!

As we reach the latter stages of the development of this part of the Midland Main Line we thought we'd share a few new screenshots.

These images show the continuation of work around Edgeley and Stockport station, along with a couple of screenshots at Heaton Norris Junction and Heaton Chapel station, all images depict work in progress areas of the Hope Valley Route.

Enjoy the shots.

Here's the latest development update for the Midland Main Line: Hope Valley Line.

The route is progressing nicely as we get closer to Manchester Piccadilly, with just a couple of miles of the route to be developed. This area however is very detailed and involved. These latest shots focus on locations at Levenshulme, Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris. We hope you'll agree, it's starting to look absolutely stunning.

Enjoy these latest shots.

As we draw closer to completion of the route, we have just a couple more dev entries to bring you before release.

So we come to the end of the line (No pun intended). We're extremely excited to be bringing you the final update for the Hope Valley Extension ahead of release. It's taken a while but we're sure everyone will agree it's been worth the wait! This selection of images offers an in depth look at two of the final areas from the route - Longsight Traction Maintenance Depot and Manchester Piccadilly Station.

Manchester Piccadilly is the principal railway station situated in the heart of Manchester's City Centre. It opened originally as Store Street in 1842 but was then renamed a few years later to London Road. Eventually in 1960 the station was re-named to its current name, Manchester Piccadilly. This station boasts 14 platforms and a grand glass station canopy towering over 12 of these and the two other platforms, 13 and 14 and the through lines where services continue to destinations such as Liverpool,Scotland the Lake District to the North and Manchester Airport, London and towards Sheffield and beyond to the South and East.

Longsight Depot was erected in 1842 by the Manchester and Birmingham Railway. This facility consisted of workshops and sheds for carriages and locos. Also located here was a 12-road roundhouse which today sadly does not exist. Various train operators can be seen working out of this depot such as Northern, Avanti West Coast, Cross Country and Trans Pennine Express. This depot is a hive of activity all times.

We do hope you like these final images and to all of you who go on to purchase this extensive part of the Midland Main Line we wish you all many hours of enjoyment!

Hier kann man schon einen Blick ins Manual werfen: https://dxhb0it26is40.cloudfro…lley_Extension_manual.pdf

Anhand dessen, ist wohl mit einer baldigen Veröffentlichung der Erweiterung zu rechnen...

Ich dachte, daß die Strecke bis Sheffield ginge. Aber der Bhf von Sheffield taucht im "Handbuch" gar nicht auf..

Bhf von Sheffield taucht im "Handbuch" gar nicht auf

Doch. Auf Seite 6

Ja, in der Karte schon, aber nicht in der folgenden Übersicht der Stationen. Da ist die erste Station Dore & Totley.

Könnte vielleicht daran liegen, dass es das Extension Handbuch war. Betonung liegt auf könnte, weiß es leider nicht genau. Aber Sheffield da nicht mit rein zu nehmen wäre absolut blöd und hätte JT auch nicht gemacht.

Donnerstag laut JT Livestream. Tolle Strecke!

Es gibt noch ein paar letzte Bilder, bevor die Strecke morgen veröffentlicht wird:
