Ultimate Track Map
- By
A track diagram of your Create railway, opened with M: tracks, stations, signals with their colours, level crossings and trains. Click for departure boards, train schedules and signal info.
UTM, the Ultimate Track Map, draws your whole Create railway as a track diagram, the way a signal box shows it: tracks, stations, signals with their colours, level crossings and trains. Press M to open it.
What it shows
- Tracks in grey. A block with a train in it turns red.
- Stations as white squares with their names. The platforms of one station are drawn together.
- Signals in the colour they show now, with a different symbol for each kind of head: lamp, dwarf, distant, semaphore and semaphore distant. A short stem shows which way the signal governs.
- Trains as blue bars with their names.
- Level crossings as an X.
Click for details
- Station: its name and platform, which train is there, and the next trains with where they go. It works as a departure board.
- Signal: its kind, colour, direction and number. Players with permission can write a signal number and hold a signal at red from the map.
- Crossing: whether it is running.
- Train: its name, speed, number of carriages and schedule.
Layers and the problem list
- Speeds colours the track by its speed limit.
- Power draws the overhead wire, so you can see where a train has power.
- Reserved route shows the blocks that trains have reserved ahead.
- Problems lists a derailed train, a train without power, a train that has waited long at a signal, a signal held at red and a stuck crossing. Click one to see where it is.
Controls
Scroll to zoom, drag to move, R to fit the whole railway on the screen, click for details, M or Esc to close. The key can be changed in the controls under UTM.
Station names: name the platforms of a station with a common first part, and set the platform prefixes in the settings (the default is Platform, PF).
