Hi, and thank you for downloading this 75 minute scenario for the Just Trains Midland Main Line with Derby-Nottingham-Leicester, and Derwent Valley extensions.
To install, simply copy the enclosed ‘Content’ folder to your Railworks folder. This is a ‘Standard’ scenario and is named “[MJC] 1Z43 King’s Cross – Matlock ‘Victorian Christmas Blue Pullman’”

Summary
In an alternative 2020, drive Locomotive Services Ltd’s Blue Pullman HST set on a Sunday excursion to the Victorian Christmas festivities in Matlock. It’s even snowing for the occasion. You join this run approaching Syston, where you will join the Midland Main Line. It’s been a good run along the ECML to Grantham, but unfortunately shortly after Grantham the rear power car has shut down. Perfectly demonstrating the advantages of the HST concept, you are able to continue on one power car. EMR have kindly agreed to send a fitter from Etches Park to meet you at Derby.
