Description
Notes - While this route is final - I will probably add more to it in the future, and re-upload it, replacing this one, but that won't be for a while, this route is as intended however a 1 station route for train spotting.

Basically I got bored a while back, and decided to make a station using two asset packs, in this case Portsmouth Direct and WCML Trent Valley. Although to be honest I'm expecting it to be ripped apart quality wise. (it was mostly complete before, in the past day, I extended the tracks with portals for AI and adjusted the wires at the platform, and put in 3 blank stations - just for the Quick Drive (even though a bit useless for this route)

Updates - see this list - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/changelog/1814077725

Notes - Main Station is Called "Havant" (made use of the signs from the routes), and is one of two stations that has scenery, the second is called Esher which also has scenery. There is one other station, but only there for a quick drive to appear.... (quick drive is needed for this route to be on workshop)

Notes 2: The signal types were used on purpose - because they weren't really used in the original route aside from 3 or 4 signals.

Havant is located at Clapham Junction (using the drop down - if you make a free roam scenario, you'd have to make a free roam, then use the drop down location list in game, I used this area because it was more flat). If you have SWML: Southampton to Bournemouth - There will be AI in the 3rd rail sections of the route. (in the pointless quickdrive)

The main station : (Located at Clapham Junction area on the map)
Platforms 1-2: 3rd Rail only through platforms.
Platforms 3-4: Overhead electric platforms with through fast lines.
Platforms 5-6: 3rd Rail terminal platforms.

Requirements
Portsmouth Direct: Waterloo to Portsmouth
WCML: Trent Valley
TS Academy - although don't think i've used it

Optional Requirements
Portsmouth Direct (Waterloo) Platform Texture replacement - https://www.gamefront.com/games/train-simulator-2018/file/portsmouth-direct-waterloo-swml-platform-textures-1

Well, I meant a "Clapham Junction" effect, not the junction itself. At any rate, I finally got the AP version of the railfan activity up and running and very nice it was indeed. Your route looks very authentic: typical and very much an "everyday" affair, as if it could have been plucked out of any number of locations.

I had neither the old and retired North Wales Coast nor the also retired DTG 390. But I substituted the 390 found in the WCML South route and as modified by the wonderful skins found on the Alan Thomson Sim site, and used my JT Voyager Advanced for the Voyager consists. My goal was to keep the consists as true to the ones you originally posted, and, all in all, I think it mimicked your original consists almost one for one. I had a different Virgin livery for each one of the 390 consists thanks to that marvelous livery pack.

So many thanks for the fun I've had!

Clapham Junction isn't actually in the route :) (it's just a station located there, not based on it) and there are two, well one)

Are there any scenarios available for this railfan route? I've driven over the route in QD mode but subscribed because I wanted to see the chaos of Clapham Junction!

If you pick a location from the drop down list - pick Clapham Junction (sort of mentioned in the description :) (probably not that clear though to be fair ) -

"Havant is located at Clapham Junction (using the drop down - if you make a free roam scenario, you'd have to make a free roam, then use the drop down location list in game, I used this area because it was more flat). If you have SWML: Southampton to Bournemouth - There will be AI in the 3rd rail sections of the route. (in the pointless quickdrive)"

Why do I get spawned in the middle of nowhere. Where do I need to spawn at

* Will press final tomorrow (just in case)

Update - Extended track in two directions for more AI to be used. As this route was only ever intended to be a Train Spotting Station (as in one :) - but got a second one thrown in)

Fixed minor issues, set to be the final version (for now) - possibly will come back and update it (will involve deleting the route and reuploading with the same route number)

Not sure if there are any one workshop, but this station was only ever intended to be a train spotting route with 1 station (well two) rather than a full route :).

Stations included - a station called "Havant" - (not based on Havant) - but used that name because of the assets - and another one called "Esher" a fictional 3rd rail station.
