(LT 5.1) Part 2 6S78 1810 Severn Tunnel Junction – Mossend. Maindee Jnc to Hereford
18th September 2021In the early 1980’s class 40’s were regular visitors to South East Wales working down the Welsh Marches from Crewe. One service where they returned north on was the S78 1810 Severn Tunnel Junction – Mossend.
Over three scenarios class 40, 40085 will work from Severn Tunnel Junction stabling point, collecting the freight consist from the down yard, over the steep banks between South Wales and Hereford, then onto Shrewsbury.
In this scenario drive the leg from Maindee Junction to Hereford where there is a scheduled crew change at the north end of the station. The steep banks on this journey will prove quite an endurance for the class 40 so expect quite a slow run at times.

There seems to be a problem – I can’t get the train to move at all and the ammeter stays stubbornly at 0.
Thank you for the scenarios, I really enjoyed them, the traction, the era, love the BR Blue scenarios.
Hi JPM, thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed them. I’m planning to release another four or so BR blue era scenarios in the next couple of weeks, they’ll feature AP’s class 37 and class 50 locos to drive.
