Planned engineering works time

[dquar]

Please i think that planned enginnerings works have a time duration too short. in 5/6 minutes how is possible to reach the track in possesion and make any type of works. In real life track interruption have a duration in hours and not in minutes ? ?

Thanks

depends where you are...

if a person needs to be in a the track to inspect something, the possession should be short. (you don't want to walk in tracks where up to 160 km/h is allowed).

this is not common in all countries though! I can remember from my start at the railways, that you just walked into the tracks. Who cares?

After a couple of deaths and surprises (near misses) those rules have been tightened.

For Bonn, those inspection works could be a bit longer, but see it as a quick inspection work, rather than full maintenance works.

If you want to do bigger track possessions, the scenario system allows much bigger ones. (and a lot more features)

Thanks for the reply but it is possible only to change the frequency of track possesion but not to make any possesion bigger because if i increase the chance i have more frequent track possesion but each track possesion is always not more longer 8/9 minutes

We surely can look into the duration. But I would like to make it flexible. so you can choose by yourself.
