Central Line for BVE4 and OpenBVE
West Ruislip - Liverpool Street - Ealing Broadway

Latest News & Updates

The First release is now available: West Ruislip Depot - Perivale

This Central Line version will start from West Ruislip and terminate at White City, possibly extending to Liverpool Street in the near future then returning to the other western terminus of Ealing Broadway.
The photographs used in the route are all taken from the appropriate stations meaning each station will be unique and different. The route will use the 1992TS by Dan Lewis and Dan Floyd, which is now released here at BRT. The route is written by Daniel Floyd. 

All versions, will consist of the following features:

• Accurate gradients using London Underground gradient and curvature diagrams
• Working railgaps
• 95% photo-real texture rate
• Accurate object dimensions, hand measured for extra detail to give the best perception of size and perspective
• Custom made signals, unique to the Central Line
• Not only LU station coverage, but Chiltern and First Great Western line and station coverage
• Auto announcements when arriving and at stations
• Accurate station lengths and distances using highly detailed plans
• Minimal loading times 
• Real Life "Chime up" and "Chime down" Coded manual sounds
• Full OpenBVE compatibility
  

The Central Line is a deep-level tube line, using the London Underground 1992 tube stock. The line has three main depots, at Ruislip, Hainault and White City, with Ruislip in the north west of the LU network, White City in the centre and Hainault in the North East. 
The Central London Railway was opened 1891, and ran between Shepherd's Bush in the west and Bank in the east. The line has been extended several times since, and now has an entire length of 46 miles. 

This BVE4 version will run from West Ruislip in the suburbs of north west London, to White City in the west of the city. The route will also feature the reverse run from White City to the national rail interchange of Ealing Broadway, where passengers can change for the Great Western Mainline to Reading and the South West. The route will feature photographic texturing at every station, making each station a near-exact representation of the real thing. The trackside scenery will also be photographic to give a real feel of the line. The line is operated by the 1992TS, which is an ATO train. The Central Line operates an ATO service throughout, however this BVE4 representation may not incorporate such features. 

Progress

Version 1 is now complete to Perivale. The route will now continue onto Marble Arch where the train can use the reversers.

Brand new screenshots of the Central Line have been uploaded, taken in early August 2009.
