Legendary game dev scope creep happening: Looking at fixing up game's code, maybe do sounds (4 months) Improved train sound system (2 months) Write new signalling system with documentation to boot (Earlier this week) Write essentially "Dummies Guide to UK Railway Signalling" for the research (Today)

I don't mind this too much apart from the fact that's what they went with for the trains. It feels to me like a good one-off promotional thing rather than something for trains generally - also which will just be those running services for England. It doesn't feel serious.

Tomorrow the new blue, red & white GBR livery & brand will be launched. The new design will be displayed on digital displays at a number of major stations. The DfT says the livery will appear across already publicly owned train operators from spring 2026, with the roll-out being gradual. 📷DfT
