I do hope you enjoy this scenario.
Really enjoyed this scenario Matt. Gorgeous run. Thank you.
Thank you so much James, glad you enjoyed it!
I really enjoyed this scenario keep up the good work
Very nice run! I´m hoping for the return journey as a scenario. Would be quite fitting.
I missed some Class 421 CXU (Connex unbranded) repaints, probably off some AP Extra Stock?
Thank you Schwarzwaldbahner! Yes the return run will be made. The CXU repaints are extra stock from the AP class 205. Kind regards, Matt.
i’ve been trying to load it but its not finding 421 CXL livery… do you know where to find it?
nevermind, found it in the 205 extra stock pack
As James and ‘Cactus’ say, the unit is running empty and does not have a guard on board. The guard is at Guildford where the train enters passenger service.
This one is identified as ‘driver only’, because some empty stock moves do convey the guard, because they are travelling from their depot in order to work a passenger service. But in this case there is a depot at Guildford and the guard will be based at that depot. Hope that make sense.
I don’t think slammers can run DOO.
if the units not in service, i dont think they would run with a guard. all doors would be locked, so no reason to have one. that makes the service DOO
I was wondering the same thing, but that makes sense thanks for the explanation.
