1L60 10:05 Arbroath To Edinburgh Waverley
7th May 2019This scenario will take approximately 98 minutes to complete.
On a clear afternoon you will be taking charge of 1L60 a 4 car Class 158 forming the 10:05 Arbroath to Edinburgh Waverley service.
In this run you will be commencing the journey at Dundee, where you will depart at 10:30, calling at Leuchars, Cupar, Ladybank, Markinch, Kirkcaldy, Inverkeithing, South Gyle, and Haymarket before terminating at Edinburgh Waverley.
Due to a major signalling failure earlier in the day there is an ongoing bug with the signals between Haymarket and Waverley causing a number of services to bottleneck, and as such creating some significant delays.
You will be held by the signaller at Haymarket for around 10 minutes whilst you wait for the route to clear, meaning it will not be possible for you to reach Edinburgh Waverley at your scheduled arrival time of 11:55.
This run has been based on accurate train times from the Scotrail timetable (9 Dec 2018 – 18 May 2019) and verified against Realtime Trains.
Due to the age of the route what should be a stop at Edinburgh Gateway (not featured in the TS route) has been substituted with a stop at South Gyle. Due to the lack of OHLE a number of Class 385, and 334 services have been substituted with Class 170 DMU’s, and some Class 385 services have been substituted with Class 380’s due to there not being a current 385 in TS.

Very nice. Was not held at Heymarket at all though, just saying.
The wonders of Train Simulator, every time I tested it I was held at Haymarket for around 10 minutes, just goes to show how differently it behaves on different systems! Either way glad you enjoyed it.
