1B85 13:54 Newark North Gate-London Kings Cross (2017)

27th March 2026 0 By Cactus732

In 2017 VTEC operated a 2-hourly “stopping” service between London and Newark North Gate calling at all of their stations. These services were operated by a mixture of HSTs and Mk4 sets being propelled by both Class 90 and 91 locomotives. Included in this package are 4 variations of the 13:54 service, operated by each of the 4 potential stock combinations, with the same AI, weather and season variations as my other uploads in this series.

If you don’t use the AP Sky/weather enhancement, the intended weather variations will not be experienced. 

Also included are 2 preload freeroams for Kings Cross and Newark, I was able to run this scenario without using them but they definitely run at their smoothest by loading at Kings Cross and flying to Newark. This is not a 1 size fits all solution, I expect that you would know what works best for your system/installation.
