2S88 15:48 Manchester Piccadilly – Sheffield – “Chasing the clock”
31st March 2023Morning Driver. You have just clocked on at Manchester Piccadilly for the evening shift, and your first task of the day, is to take 2S88 – The 15:48 Hope Valley stopper through to Sheffield, on an wet Autumn Day in 2019. Its a tight timetable, with little slack to make up time. Add to that reports of slippery rails, and its going to be a real challenge to reach Sheffield for your scheduled arrival time of 17:04
Dependencies:
Those marked with a “*” are essential. Other requirements will not stop the scenario from running, however you may not get the full experience
*Just trains – Midland Mainline & Hope Valley extension
*AP Class 150/1 EP, and dependencies
AP Class 158 (Perkins EP) and dependancies
AP Class 43 VP EP and dependancies
AP Class 319 pack version 1, and dependancies
ATS Class 185
DTG West Coast Mainline South (For class 390 Avanti Pendolino)
Can you make it to Sheffield on time? Good Luck!

Good going – yes those 15 limits out of Manchester are easy to creep over
Pretty nice drive!
Edited the scenario to have the AP light drizzle and made it on time at Sheffield 🙂
Great, well done for making it on time, especially if you have all the requirements – I wonder if the weather change reduced wheel slip perhaps – best I have managed was 2 minutes late
Driver in the wrong end.
Thanks, not spotted that. If the scenario gets updated ill look to fix that!
Not a bad run tbf, 4 minutes late to beat lol
Glad you enjoyed the run
