This is a modest attempt to create a part of the Whelley Loop train line near Wigan, using the build editor in Train Simulator. To include a bit of history the period depicted is very loose between early 20th century and late 60's

This is great. Thanks for posting. I've lived in the area all my life and now live close to what's left of the Pemberton loop line, The Central line, Spring Branch and Whelley loop lines, in and around Amberswood area. It took me a while to work out the routes of these lines, as so much has totally gone and been landscaped. When you overlay that old Map onto Google Earth its amazing how much has changed. But you can still make out the routes even today.

I've explored much of this, there's a few relics hidden along the line, also, minor parts of the stations too, but not much!

A lot of effort to bring that complex area to life. Well done.

Are these maps available for download at all? I've explored these lines quite a bit as they are now and it's nice to see what these lines may have looked like back in the day.
