Scenario run-through
This scenario should last around 155 minutes. You have been following a delayed Cambridge service around the Hertford Loop and are now waiting for it to clear the platform at Stevenage. Once you get the signal you may proceed, calling at York, Darlington, and Newcastle where you will be relieved. Set NL65 is running with an LNER power car at the London end at the moment. There are some signalling issues at Peterborough which will see you routed through a platform line. There is also a defective signal between Doncaster and York which has a note included.
I do hope you enjoy this scenario.
Sadly, I couldn’t give this one a run because it dumped every time during the loading phase 🙁
That’s a shame Chris. There are around 50 AI trains in this, plus limited static.

You mentioned above this two enhancement packs, but it seems to me, that they do not exist there, from where did you have this information ?
I am also searching the AP files for the Fuller Class 185, where can I find them ?
Hi,
The two enhancement packs are called ‘Class 43 / Mark 3 coach (MTU)’ and ‘Class 43 / Mark 3 coach (VP185)’ on the Armstrong Powerhouse site.
The class 185 by Fuller Simulation used to have a separate download that utilised elements of the AP class 175, but this has now been made the standard download and can be found here : https://fuller-sim.weebly.com/rolling-stock.html
