16th July 2025 0 By Matt Carroll

Hi, and thank you for downloading this 70 minute scenario for the Just Trains Midland Main Line with Hope Valley and Buxton & Peak Forest extensions.

To install, simply copy the enclosed ‘Content’ folder to your Railworks folder. This is a ‘Standard’ scenario and is named “[MJC] 2H06 1723 Manchester Piccadilly – Buxton”

**Please note that there is the possibility this scenario could ‘dump’ in the Longsight area. To attempt to mitigate against this, there is an additional (empty) scenario named “[MJC] Longsight Pre-Load”. It is suggested that you open this scenario first, have a brief ‘fly around’, then exit and immediately load the main scenario (without closing TSC).

Summary

On a cold early October evening, drive this peak time service to Buxton with NSE-liveried class 101 set L841. You will call at Stockport then all stations to Buxton. Year: 1994

Along with L835 and L840, this unit has recently transferred to Longsight after being displaced from the Reading to Gatwick line by new class 165 and 166 Turbos. Some passengers will be enjoying the declassified first class seats.
