…and that’s it for this scenario. My other creations can be found here.
Anyway, enjoy! 🙂
An excellent scenario thank you
Very nice run! Thanks for sharing.
Be aware that the pathing approaching Chesterfield is a bit dodgy with a fair bit of wrong direction running. Maybe platform 2 isn’t the right one for this working?
Thanks Frankoi. This service was booked to run via the bi-di lines at Chesterfield before reversing in Plat 2 🙂
A very enjoyable scenario, Thank you.
Thanks!
