[CB] The Metro Marauder Scenario Pack
26th May 2022Changelog – 31/05/22 –
> Patched Scenario 1 (hopefully have), fixed a crawling issue with 1K15/18 at Epsom.
It is worth noting Scenario 5 is a massive hit or miss due to how botched the DTG Dispatcher is, give it a Restart (via the Pause Menu) and if the second signal is green you are clear for the rest of the scenario, if not, let me know below and I’ll work on an alternative option
The Metro Marauder Railtour is to commemorate the 39 years of service that 455/8s have performed with GTR Southern Railway. It was hosted on 14th May, 2022 by Branch Line Society alongside Network SouthEast Railway Society with sale stands. The Railtour featured 2 x Class 455/8 throughout, the charity tour formed a number of unusual routes for the class and included a circa 1 hour comfort and refreshment break in Brighton before returning to the capitol. The traction for the entire journey was 455835 + 841 and had two drivers in both end cabs to assist in the journey.
Entailed in this Scenario Pack is 7 scenarios covering all 6 journeys that 835+841 took part in on the 10 hour journey along the Southern region of the UK totalling to just over 5 hours and 30 minutes of scenario gameplay. The services are:
> 1Z55 09:02 London Victoria – Billinshurst Signal T1430
> 1Z56 10:25 Billinshurst Signal T1430 – Brighton
> 1Z57 12:55 Brighton – London Charing Cross
> 1Z58 15:31 London Charing Cross – London Blackfriars (Delayed)
> 1Z59 16:42 London Blackfriars – Sevenoaks (Delayed)
> 1Z60 17:38 Sevenoaks – London Victoria (Delayed)

I finally got round to completing this. Thanks for all the effort and input into this! lots of time spent I can imagine. Thanks!
My pleasure 🙂
I rode the actual tour so I’m very keen to try out on TS. Thanks for making this.
Hope it is up to near enough realistic! 95% of AI was how it was thanks to help 🙂
I am coming across an issue with scenario 1z59 starting at Blackfriars. The scenario starts fine, you can load passengers, the doors close and you can depart having firstly pressed tab to pass the red signal at the end of the platform.
However, when the doors close and the message to tab the first signal at the end of the platform appears, it advises you not to pass the second signal unless it is green. This signal for me starts at amber and then changes to red as you approach and never actually changes to green and you can sit at the signal for at least 20 minutes and a 700 comes on the same track and crashes head on in to you. Is this a known issue with this scenario?
Please read the first paragraph on the scenario ascertaining to this scenario,
“It is worth noting Scenario 5 is a massive hit or miss due to how botched the DTG Dispatcher is, give it a Restart (via the Pause Menu) and if the second signal is green you are clear for the rest of the scenario, if not, let me know below and I’ll work on an alternative option”
Apologies I missed that. The tip worked and I have been able to complete the scenario. Thanks for your help.
No worries.
Got it working. Just attempted Keymer Junction to London Bridge section and player train derailed at Annerley. Otherwise looking good.
Apologies to hear that, did you proceed before or after the 171 pairing at Norwood Junction.
1Z58 and 1Z60 are not shown on the scenario selection, and 1Z57 (Part 1) crashes my Train sim before it loads so badly that I have to restart my PC.
1Z58 can be found if you select “South London and Thameslink” (Steam Workshop link provided in the .pdf readme) on the Routes category.
1Z60 can be found in “Chatham Mainline to Dover” (or whatever it was called).
As for your issue with 1Z57 I can only recommend you turn down your settings, it’s a short set scenario at Brighton so there is no other indication to leading to a crash.
Alright, thank you.
Hi mate, great first scenarios up to 1Z58, as soon as I get to the corner approaching Clapham Junction and just after Wandsworth Common, I get an error message saying 1L43 and 1H41 had derailed. Help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Please reinstall as this was patched last night. Many thanks.
The unit isn’t showing for me, even as a thumbnail on the scenario selection. I have all the class 455 variations and enhancement packs installed. When scenario loads, it fails, modified, broken consists. Any ideas?
I’m not sure why the consist has done this, seen many people install this just fine, try giving the assets a reinstall (thumbnail didn’t seem to want to work for people). Other than that I’m a bit clueless sorry.
