AP Class 318 scenarios with Announcements
21st December 2023With kind permission from Richard to release these, this download contains versions of the 2V45/2C52 and 2V66 scenarios that come with the superb AP Class 318 EMU pack to add the real life PIS announcements voiced by Fletcher Mathers.
Other than adding the announcements (and having to delete AI consist 2L19 16:33 Larkhall to Dalmuir from the 2V66 scenario as this was constantly breaking the scenario despite several attempts to fix it) these scenarios were originally created by Richard Armstrong and I take no credit for creating them.
Installation is the usual drag and drop the inlcuded Content folder into your Railworks folder and overwrite when prompted process. I have fully tested both scenarios and been able to complete them both but nevertheless I can’t take responsibility if anything goes awry as a result of installing these announcements.
Enjoy!
Sounds okay, would be better using older announcements instead of the Class 380 ones
Could you elaborate on this please? The 318s and 380s use the same bank of announcement audio files that were part of the original recording of ScotRail announcements back in the mid 2000s. The scripts and spacing differ slightly between 318s and 380s as well as the 380s using the inflicted recordings of station names but none of the annoucements are ‘older’ than the other
How do the Announcemens work with this Train – Please?
What you have done here is just incredible THANK YOU just played one of these modified scenarios and it completly adds to the immersion thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed Ross, you’re very welcome!
Thank you for doing this and so quick! These announcements add to the immersion and being from Scotland it’s sounds very normal😂 look forward to seeing your future updates and releases.
Thanks for the kind words Bryan, really appreciate it. Hopefully into the new year I’ll be able to get some updates to older stuff out if all goes to plan!
Be nice if you put the route name somewhere prominent please..
I don’t know my Scotland from my elbow 🙁
They are scenarios on the Suburban Glasgow Northwest Helensburgh to Airdrie route. These scenarios are two of the ones included with the AP Class 318 pack, I have only added the announcements to them. Therefore for all scenario requirements and information you can refer to the Class 318 product page on the Armstrong Powerhouse website. I hope this helps.
Just wanted to say, that this is incredible! Thank you so much for making this. It really adds to the immersion! I really hope things like these can be made in the coming future!
Thank you for the kind words Bertie. I have plenty more in the pipeline in terms of updating scenarios with announcements, although I don’t quite know myself when I’ll get everything done. However I am looking forward to making some sort of a return to releasing TS content after a couple of years away from making stuff.
Fantastic, I hope all goes well for you.
Also quick suggestion if you dont mind, Mabye you could possibly do some South Western Railway related ones? Thanks
Thank you for the request but sadly I only do Scotland related content, I have zero interest in anything down south nor do I have much knowledge of operations etc or announcements.
ah right thats okay!
