Cracking scenario – thanks!
Unfortunately, the scenario feels very empty. A little more traffic or decoration on the sidings would not have hurt.
Thanks for downloading, i’m sorry to hear that. For the traffic I used some timetable based on that year (although I only have a few), two months later the passenger line was closed from Hadfield, so there was only passenger services from Manchester to Hadfield (as far as I know, I can also be wrong ) so I just added those. Maybe I could have added more static consists, but I didn’t want to add too much either … Above all I just wanted to do a different service for the Woodhead route in which there are not many scenarios.
Very nice scenario, Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
