@Sir Haigh, upgrade a bit of rail connected to the station, the station should change to 3rd rail

How do you have third rail at stations?

killakanz, is it okay if a make a track rules mod that has your 3rd rail?

Is there any chance of you adding TPWS grids [small and large]. Small for overspeed and large train stop. Thanks.

@ adamski2016 It never does. There's always a gap, same at points.

The 3rd rail doesn't connect over road crossings

you have to connect electric to the train shed or you train will not come out it will say cant find electric.

mine is saying no path electric eventhough i can see the 3rd rail on the whole route?

Nice. Have not tried it out yet, and not sure if this is a feature of them -but would it be ingenious to make AWS ramps waypoint markers too?

I cannot remove this mod from my savegame after activating it. The game just crashes and gives me an error message saying that it couldn't load some files due to them being missing, but I am not using anything in the mod in my savegame, so this shouldn't be a problem. Any help please?

When does it unlock?

Finally... A 3rd rail track for the UK... Will look much better on the Southern and South Coast maps of Britain.

Would it be possible to add longer versions of the 3rd rail?

@chrisnaan My patreon supporters get that info ;)

What other projects have you got that we may expect?
killakanz  [author] 9 Apr, 2018 @ 1:32am 
@seal In distress 04 yes, it's a caternary mod. It adds a new track in the railway building menu that has the third rail if catenary is on.
I've also added it as a placeable asset because the catenary system tends to leave large gaps around junction switches.

Is the third rail functional?
killakanz  [author] 5 Apr, 2018 @ 2:29am 
@europe.au I'm afraid it does do the stair thing. There isn't anything we can do about that until the devs implement a better system for props conforming to crack curvature and gradient.
JeffFromTheIRS 5 Apr, 2018 @ 1:23am 
Does the third rail confrom to slopes? Or will does it have that stair effect that the other third rail track on the WS have?

Awesome! Thank you!

Oh, didn't see this coming! Really was missing AWS :)
killakanz  [author] 3 Apr, 2018 @ 3:32am 
My tests have shown some unusual behaviour in the game... I can't really change this.
The game seems to try to switch to the last catenary type used.
So usually, if you put the station down first with catenary on, and then connect this third rail track to every platform, the station switches to using 3rd rail.
If you mix the track types, it confuses the station and you may not get the result you want, so keep things simple...

So will stations still have pantagraphs??? or will they have 3rd rail?
BC-Rail_SimTV 3 Apr, 2018 @ 12:43am 
WONDERFUL!!!!,that's what I have been looking for!
Big Dave 2 Apr, 2018 @ 3:21pm 
thank you very much Killa!
kido 2 Apr, 2018 @ 2:13pm 
YES! MANY THANKS!

@MarkyT oh... I didn't know this... Thought they were all yellow. I'll add it to the list of things to include in the next update...
MarkyT 2 Apr, 2018 @ 1:39pm 
AWS ramps for use in 3rd rail territory should be painted green, not yellow. They have stronger magnets inside. I suggest you also add TPWS grids as well. Very nice mod thanks.
