Interesting!  :)
But what does APT stand for, and what is its purpose?

And it's great to see you back on the forums as well as BVEStation!  ;)

IIRC, APT stands for Advanced Passenger Train, it is a high-speed British Rail train

It's looking good! Keep it coming!  :)
Although, there are some areas where the train sways in the direction that it is turning and I want to ask: is it a glitch? (I am fully aware that this is still a WIP.)

At the moment mater its all driver opperated. so that was my fault. i was filming it from the front and left was right and right was left from that prospective. so basically user error. im currently working on making a beacon to place into routes, but that will be a while as yet.
