In this run you will be taking charge of 1M13, the 12:40 Avanti West Coast Glasgow Central to London Euston express passenger service.
You will be driving a Class 390 Pendolino as far as Preston in this scenario, calling at Carlisle, Penrith North Lakes, Oxenholme Lake District, and Lancaster.
This run has been based on accurate times, stock and where possible unit numbers, as near as possible to the actual times of all services on 1st May 2020 verified against Real Time Trains.
Class 385 units have been substituted with Class 380 units, Class 397 units have been substituted with Class 350’s, Class 195 units have been substituted with Class 170’s. The consists for freight trains have been created based on guess work.
Due to being unable to achieve actual running times for the player train when testing none of the stops are timetabled, though the actual stopping times are detailed in the scenario description.

West Coast Mainline (WCML) North West & Scotland – Preston to Glasgow & Edinburgh Route

I also have this error as mentioned above with the milngavie service
Downloaded this scenario but it comes up with an error upon starting, it’s flagging up loads of issues regarding the AI ‘2C32 Milgavie to Motherwell’, and upon checking I’ve seen it’s routed via the Glasgow low-level line? But that’s not even part of the route… For reference, I downloaded the WCML North/OS merge from this site, is there any chance you made the scenario on an older version? If that’s the case I’d disclaim that its potentially incompatible with the new one. Also as a sidenote, having the scenario marker in Carlisle isn’t ideal, means upon the scenario loading you’re left with waiting for the scenery to load around you.
The Glasgow low level line which the Milngavie to Motherwell service runs on is evident between Glasgow Central and Rutherglen and beyond, with the that particular service scheduled so that it should be at Rutherglen when the player train passes on the main line, not had any other reports of issues with it and never encountered any issues when I tested myself so without further information regarding the nature of the issues am unable to advise.
The scenario was created on the current version of the route, given the fact there have been no other reports of issues I’m guessing it’s the classic story of Train Simulator behaving completely differently on different computers which it does a lot!
Is it the Class 318 Reskin pack rather than the 334 pack that you need from Suburban Glasgow?
Yes it is the 318 reskin pack, never realised I had made that error when I made up the scenario requirements!
