SAR Changes Log

Changes Between Version 1.0 and Version 2.0

Most of the changes made to the maps, industries, switches and track marks between the two versions are due to more up to date historical information becoming available. I recently gained access to a vast online archive of historical photographs and documents covering all Australian railways. As a result I discovered some significant discrepancies between the contents of that archive and the original published track diagrams on which the Peterborough Division route was based. A common example: The original track diagram showed no passenger facilities or grain silos at a location. This was contradicted by archived photographs and documents for that location. An uncommon example: At one location the photographic archives indicated that the original published track diagram had been flipped vertically. This was confirmed by checking that location with Google Earth. The changes made are:-

 Scenarios 
 Original V1.0 Scenarios: 

Most of these have been updated to take advantage of the changes that have been made to many of the location in the route. Where changes have been made and an updated V2.0 version has been created, a link has been provided to the original V1.0 version. Most of the scenarios have been provided with a sample timetable for one or several trains that could be run.

 New V2.0 Scenarios: 

The new V2.0 scenarios make use of additional rolling stock that has been added to the SAR Peterborough Division Base Session V2.0 and the additional trackage from Woolshed Flats to Hawker. Most have also been provided with a sample timetable for one or several trains that could be run.
