As Im looking to start Module 2 I had a look at the doc PJW has written which is an incredibly valuable source of information. However there was a section on aspect sequencing in there which correct me if Im wrong should have been in the module 3 stuff. Wish I had seen that before.
I have used all the past papers and belive they should include all layouts and exams from 97-2010
For those attempting control tables there seems to very little indepth literature available apart from the docs that PJW given freely through the forum and the OS Nock book. Unless you had access to NR rail standards it would be impossible to learn Interlocking Priciples and control tables from the IRSE DVD alone. Having seen the depth of knowledge PJW has imparted in Modules 2 if I was about to study module 3 I would have expected the same...but this is not the case. It is only through the forum can you expect to gain the knowledge if self-studying and again the majority of that is provided by PJW and Peter M. The IRSE books are little outdated too. But the onus is on the individual to go out and source other material ..... if module 3 was of the standard of module 2 plus the forum you'd be onto a winner. Im very thankful for all the help I have received and the forum is the most important facet for an individual on a self study program
