Points to consider before playing:
• In the game settings under Gameplay check Allow all Coupling checkbox.
• At the beginning of the scenario, you might need to TAB the exit signal of Exeter TMD to access the mainline.
• Once you are ready to reverse into the Down Main at Exeter St. Thomas, make sure the “Automatic” points are correctly set. If not do it manually by clicking the junction box. You must ensure that you are headed into Exeter St. Thomas platform 1.
• There is no drawbar modeled for this HST so when the hatch opens you can proceed with coupling.
• Your speed will be monitored against 45 mph. If you exceed this value 5 times the scenario will fail. More details in the scenario pop ups.

I couldn’t get the road into St Thomas P1 to rescue the HST? It said junction was locked by the failed train
Do you have JT’s common library? this scenario uses its AI signal marker. Without that, it will not let you into St. Thomas P1.
I should think so as I’ve got most of their routes
I had the same problem. I just edited the scenario and moved the HST so that it was placed just before the signal at EXT. Restarted the scenario and the points cleared.
Did the points get cleared automatically or you had to click on the junction box? after you placed the HST before the signal at St. Thomas.
The points changed automatically.
Interesting. It did not change in my case so I used the AI signal marker which made it go away. Also, the players below did not face this issue. I will check on my end. Thanks.
Very interesting scenario! Could have benefited from the Signal EP to avoid having to tab but apart from that it’s brilliant!
Thanks. Yes, I could have implemented the Signal EP my bad.
Nice scenario and good to have the class 50 to drive. Ran perfectly fine and loved the scripting. Only bug i had personally and i think this is a sim limitation is when you have coupled up to the hst and driving if you look outside when you press 1 to get back in the cab it is placing you in the HST cab and your having to move the camera back to the 50 cab.
Thank you for playing Ross glad you liked it. Yes its a bug on the sim side. Can you please tell me if you got the speed check alert on the right top corner? this would happen if you cross 45mph.
i keep my speed below 45 at all times. MY friend who played it at the same time as me though got the non complete and end of scenario for going over it slightly once. I will get him to comment if it helps he will be able to tell you more as he was the one whom saw it on his screen.
