This is a good scenario, however I have some points of feedback, which I hope you don’t mind. The drivers of the following services are facing the opposite direction of travel: 5Q96, 1H05, 1E16, 1P46, 1N94, 1S26, 1H10, 1R48, 1S27, 1D24, 1P50, 1T50 and 1D25. The service 2V16 has no set destination, and its pantographs are down. 2F20 is on a northbound service with its destination displaying “Moorgate”. Services by Grand Central do not have their destinations set. The service 1E26 seems to be running at 75% (93 mph) of line speed from Peterborough to Kings Cross without any reason to do so, and this causes some annoyance due to constant single yellow and reds if trying to make up lost time as the description mentions. The last point of feedback is placement is statics, especially Class 66s and JNAs. The placement of these seems excessive, and the scenario would do perfectly fine without half of them both. Besides this, it is a great scenario, and it is good that you’re using the window destinations for the LNER services. Good job!
First of all thanks for the feedback, just get some little feedback for your feedback, whist I know it’s an issue that drivers are in wrong cab, as far as I’m aware, there are no ways of telling the driver of AI services to be at a certain end of the train, which is an issue with mainly the LNER services, so I think it’s more important that the trains are the correct way round rather then just the driver at the wrong end, altho if you do know a way to solve this feel free to share. 2V16 and 2F20 are my bad, I will update it tomorrow to fix this. 1E26 is slower to make the scenario more interesting e.g. so you don’t just have green signals all the way which I think is more boring, plus avoids long stop outside kings cross, plus the service arrives at kings cross at the same time it did on the day the service ran. Finally static are massively turned down from what the real service would see, plus I’ve tried to place it at the front so it’s not all stacked at the back. Please feel free to give some feedback to my feedback on your feedback. Thanks.
The 125 and 225 sets for LNER have two types of consists each. The 125 sets have northbound and southbound ones, whilst the 225 sets have Class 91 leading and DVT leading ones. If you have a service going southbound before going northbound again, select the northbound or Class 91 leading consists, however place the driver icon on the southbound facing empty cab. The train will then have the correct direction and driver placement when being passed going northbound. Hope this helps! Once again, great scenario!
