Victoria Line for BVE4 and OpenBVE
Walthamstow Central - Brixton

Latest News & Updates

This Victoria Line version will start from Walthamstow Central and finish at Brixton.
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 1967TS and 2009TS by James Galbraith. This version is an update to Sacha's version available here for BVE2. Thank you to Sacha for the co-operation in the update of this project.

The route is written by Daniel Floyd.

All versions, will consist of the following features:

• Working railgaps
• 95% photo-real texture rate
• Accurate object dimensions, hand measured for extra detail to give the best perception of size and perspective
• Auto announcements when at stations
• Accurate station lengths and distances using highly detailed plans
• Minimal loading times 
• Both Manual and ATO versions available
• Full OpenBVE/ BVE4 compatibility (Some OpenBVE features may not be available in the BVE4 version)
  

The Victoria Line is a deep-level tube line, using the London Underground 1967 tube stock, soon to be updated with the 2009TS. The line has one main depot at Northumberland Park (Off Seven Sisters). The entire passenger carrying line is Underground. The depot at Northumberland Park is the only track to be overground.
 
Since the late 1960s, the Victoria Line has been ATO, however, this version will contain a Manual version in BVE4 and OpenBVE. And an ATO version in OpenBVE. The Victoria Line covers 16 stations most of which interchange with other London Underground lines and National Rail, Pimlico is the exception. The Victoria Line is relatively busy at most times of the day, these versions however, portray a 'rush hour' environment, hence all platforms at relavent stations will be very busy. 

Please do not run the ATO route file in manual mode as the ATO route file will stop the train at headway posts (see below for explanation). Headway posts do not have a visual signal aspect, therefore you are likely to pass a signal at danger.

In the Manual version, the commands which require the train to stop at headway boards in ATO have been removed, meaning that it will only be necessary to stop at signals which are remaining at danger. 

Headway boards:

These act similarly on the Central line as block marker boards. When the train is in ATO, it will read these boards as if it were a signal to tell it if the next section/ block is occupied. The OpenBVE version has a couple of occasions where it will stop at a Headway boards and signals automatically, this should explain why the train slows down at intervals during the route. (depending if the train is on-time)

Progress

All stations and track are complete as far as Pimlico. The route will be released in conjunction with the release of the 1967TS (See below).

Brand new screenshots of the Victoria Line have been uploaded, taken in early March 2010.
