Announcement Information
************************

– To get the announcements , I recorded them off of YouTube so a big thank you too Fletcher Mathers Videos
and Poolecj 9143 for the great recordings as without these it would not be possible.

– This is the first time I have ever done any form of scripting/announcements in ts so its not perfect , if you have
any ways I can improve it then please let me know , if you want to contact me here is my email
:[email protected] , if its easier just leave a comment!

– I could not find a way to get the announcements to play the second you open the doors as it meant predicting exact arrival times (which is impossible) so instead I did it so when the doors close the announcements play which I find more reliable for everyone.

*Lastly this scenario has taken a long time to make and I have went through a ton of errors so its been a real test for me , if you do want to donate it is momentously appreciated no matter how big or small! Whatever you do I hope you enjoy this scenario and if you run into any issues please leave a comment! Thank you.

Scenario Information:

Description: With storm Dudley affecting all rail services in the UK, you are in charge of the 1520 (2T98) Glenrothes with Thornton to Edinburgh via Kirkcaldy ScotRail service. You will call at Glenrothes, Kirkcaldy, Kinghorn, Burntisland, Aberdour, Dalgety Bay, Inverkeithing, North Queensferry, Dalmeny, Edinburgh Gateway, Haymarket and Edinburgh Waverley. The majority of trains have either been delayed or cancelled so everything is chaos across the network so expect a very disruptive run. The terrible weather is also going to add another layer of challenge. This scenario also has announcements to add even more to the immersion. I have tried my best to make it as accurate as possible with a few extra bits of stock for variation. Based on the 1520 (2T98) service which departed on the date 16/02/22.
