Hi, and thank you for downloading this 45 minute scenario for the fantastic ATS Chat Moss route.
To install, simply copy the enclosed ‘Content’ folder to your Railworks folder. This is a ‘Standard’ scenario and is named “[MJC] 1M89 1645 Cardiff Ctl – Manchester Oxford Rd / 5V92 20+15 ECS to Crewe“.

Summary
Wales and West maintain a rake of mark 2 coaches to increase capacity on busy routes. Mostly used on the Cardiff to Bristol and Weymouth routes, on Friday evenings it replaces the usual class 158 unit on the busy 1645 Cardiff to Manchester. In order to return the set to Cardiff and avoid a run-round, the train terminates at Manchester Oxford Road and then runs empty to Crewe to form a 2138 Fridays-only service to Cardiff. Drive the final part of the journey to Manchester and then the ECS as far as Warrington. Year: 1999
