I don’t think you need it but I have the Class 220/221/222 Sound Pack from Armstrong Powerhouse which is not available anymore.  You might need to swap out with the Voyager Advanced 2019 from Just Trains if anything is missing.

Notes:
The BMG/Precision Locomotive Developments Castle is a bit more challenging to drive than the Steam version,  but the timetable is relativley easy.  Be careful when going up steep grdients, as you do not want to start wheelslipping. For more information about how to get the best out of both the BMG/Precision Locomotive Develppments Castle and how to drive uphill, I suggest asking other people for advice or looking around and seeing what other people have done.  

I use RW Enhancer 2 but the scenario might work without it.

I am also unsure if you need the AP Sky and Weather Enhancement Pack V2 for RW Enhancer 2, I think that      you do not but it may be worth asking around if you are not sure.

The Vintage Trains Coaching Stock Reskin Pack from British Locomotive Studios has been updated to V1.2. But
these scenarios might use the pack BEFORE the update.

However, you could either see if they work, which they should if you have updated them (See below for details), or if they do not then try swapping them out with RW Tools or Locoswap.

This V1.2 update contains an optional patch for anyone who has updated to the latest version of the Armstrong Powerhouse Coaching Stock Packs to work with the new AP Tread Brake Update for the Mark 1 & Mark 2 coach packs from the 22nd November 2023, the patch enables our Vintage Trains coaching stock reskins to work with the new updated coaches and tread brake physics.

Since the Class 43 (MTU)/Mk3 Enhancement Pack from Armstrong Powerhouse is not currently available then you might have to find an alternative and swap them out with either RW Tools or Locoswap.

The scenario length is both of the scenarios combined.

Duration: Scenario Bristol Temple Meads to Tiverton Loop 66 Minutes/Difficulty: 2 Stars
