1Z44 17.30 Bury Bolton Street – London St. Pancras (2013)

21st October 2022 6 By Matt Carroll

Hi, and thank you for downloading this 120 minute scenario for the Just Trains Midland Main Line with Hope Valley, Erewash Valley, and Derby-Nottingham-Leicester extensions.
To install, simply copy the enclosed ‘Content’ folder to your Railworks folder. This is a ‘Standard’ scenario and is named “[MJC] 1Z44 1730 Bury Bolton Street – St. Pancras”

***Please note that there is the possibility this scenario could ‘dump’ when loading. To attempt to mitigate against this, there is an additional scenario named “[MJC] 1Z44 pre-load”. It is suggested that you open this scenario first, drive the class 47 to Stockport (around 5 minutes), then exit and immediately load the main scenario (without closing TSC) ***

Summary
You are driving part of a return charter working that has visited the East Lancs Railway using and EMT HST set. Joining the run just outside Stockport, you will be driving to Leicester via the Hope and Erewash Valleys. You have a route conductor with you who will need to be dropped off at Stockport, where you will then pick up another route conductor as far as Chesterfield. Once they have been dropped off you are on your own through to Leicester where you will be relieved. Year: 2013.
On the Hope Valley section of the route you are not permitted to run at ‘SP’ line speeds and must observe the standard speeds. Therefore maximum speed on the Hope Valley section is 70mph.
