Hi there. Great scenario and I just wanted to say that it worked perfectly fine for me and I was able to do it on two attempts as the first one was to make sure it all works and I have done a let’s play of this one which will come up sometime next year as I love this route and I didn’t have any major issues either. Thanks for the scenario. Please do more like this.
I too had the same errors that Benelena reported on loading the scenario. However I was still able to complete it and very enjoyable it was too. A bit of a challenge though as the distance markers did not count down from St Pancras to Luton Airport Parkway (stayed at 29.04 miles from departure to arrival) and then no distance or time at all from Luton Airport Parkway to Bedford North Junction.
Not sure if it is me, but there are a lot of static consists at various points in the scenario of all types (222’s, 360’s and 700’s) at various places along the route and not always in stations. For example, 222’s were stationary in stations heading southbound they would not normally stop at with taillights showing as I passed them. Green signals were present for them to proceed. From memory, there was one stationary at St Albans.
By no means a criticism. Just an observation and still an enjoyable scenario.
Hi, it is strange as I tested the scenario twice before publishing :/. Thanks for managing to get through it though despite of the problems.
Please accept my apologies for my previous comment. The great scenario comment was not for this one.
On loading the scenario there were quite a number of errors, making the scenario unplayable. Sorry.
Hi Benelena, That doesn’t sound good. What type of errors did you face when loading the scenario. I feel I never have any luck when it comes to publishing scenarios :/. It is always fine on my end as I test and play it before I send it off.

1B16 can’t find destination.
Maybe it is my installation Luin, as no one else is reporting problems.
Hi, that is odd that that has happened to you. I downloaded the zip and re-loaded it and nothing occurred. It may be your system I’m afraid, it has happened to me before sometimes just re-installing the file helps to fix the issue. 😊
Great scenario, Thank you.
