Signs, Meaning?

[wncol2004]

Ok. I figured out most of the signs along a route stand for. Speed, Grade but some signs I really can't figure out, Can't find anything on line, Square signs with triangles on them????

Any web links anyone has to reference their meaning would be of great help.

Thanks.

The circle with a number is the recommended max speed. Going over this might cause a derailment.
square with either / or \ and a +/- number is the grade
square with /\ means next speed limit will be higher
square with \/ means next speed limit will be lower

basically, the grade will be the same, but the track portion might have more dangerous turns (\/), or be straighter (/\)

The triangles mean the next speed limit has a difference of at least 20kph.

There was a booklet in game talking about the basics of railroad in the valley, but somehow it was removed and no replacement is added yet.

Well, Well, Guess I should have read the whole manual. My bad. I just hopped in and GO! lol. I remember in an older version of DRV the manual was mentioned. Just didn't go looking for it. I just went and...frequently derailed. Guess if I see a sign for lower speed ahead I will start braking early and maybe avoid some derailments. :)

The new full manual is the replacement. What's missing is that the new tutorial doesn't refer to it yet, so most players aren't aware of its existence, but that will be fixed soon.

Thanks. Really appreciate your help.

The ingame leavlets were really great atmosphere and much nicer to read than the manual which is now in the main menue hidden away.

I prefer the manual in the menu, but I would very much like pictures added to the new manual. The old booklets were nice because they actually illustrated the lessons to you, such as showing example signage and explaining the icons.
