This is a scenario for the MaxTracks Leeds North West route.

After a track circuit failure around the Doncaster area, you join the evening GNER service to Skipton running around 15 minutes late here at Leeds. Your train is formed of power cars 43008 and 43115, with 43008 having been freshly overhauled recently, and you’re tasked with doing your best down the Aire Valley to try and claw back some of the lost time where possible. To add to the mix, a pair of traction motors had to be isolated on 43115 earlier this afternoon, so performance won’t quite be at full strength, careful handling and good timekeeping will be key as you work the service forward under the circumstances.
