Please take a moment to read the enclosed scenario guide, particularly regarding issues with two signals in the West Allerton area.

Summary
On a crisp late Summer evening in 1997, in the final months of Royal Mail operations to Liverpool Lime Street, take a class 325 unit from Stafford to its destination. 1S96 1600 Stonebridge Park to Glasgow Central has arrived at Stafford with 3 class 325s. The train divides here with only the front unit running to Glasgow. You have taken over the middle unit for the portion to Liverpool. Behind you, the third unit will be heading to Manchester. Do not depart until you are advised. Early next year, Royal Mail operations will transfer to the new Railnet terminals and these destinations will lose their mail trains.
