London Underground

Here’s an interesting guide to experiencing routes in OpenBVE , blending realism, nostalgia, and hidden details you might otherwise miss.

• Use Mark 2.4 routes – older .CSV routes (pre-2018) have inaccurate gradient data for the Northern Line’s steepest section (Hampstead → Belsize Park, 1-in-30).
• Train handling: Tube stock has regenerative braking only above ~25 mph. Below that, it switches to friction brakes – feel for the slight jerk in the sim.
• Signal sighting: LU signals are mounted on the left (unlike NR right-hand signals). In OpenBVE, set CockpitLookLeftRight = 20 in the config to quickly glance at them.
