20th December 2023 3 By mattyjt02

Setting: 30th August 2023
Total Duration: 280 minutes (4h 40mins)
Track Covered: Edinburgh Waverley – London Kings Cross via the ECML
Traction: 801207

Overview:
This evening you have been booked onto the 4 o’clock LNER Azuma service from Edinburgh Waverley to Kings Cross. It’s the Monday following the August Bank Holiday and is a busy period as many look to head back home in time for work and school to start back up again. It should be a nice and smooth run towards the capital this evening, so ensure that we remain on schedule. Once we arrive in London you will then be relieved for the day, and a colleague will be back a short while later to take the empty train to Bounds Green.

Important Info:
1.
SPAD Tabbing – You should only need to do this 3 times on 2 separate occasions throughout the entire journey. The first time you will need to do this will be when you cross the bridge just north of the approach to Doncaster, as well as when you leave Platform 1. The second time will be on the approach to Peterborough; this signal is supposed to remain red initially whilst you await for 2K23 from Lincoln to clear a path, but sometimes the signal does not change. You are reminded about these 3 signals in the scenario anyway.
2.
Due to the current absence of the highly anticipated FLIRT in TSC, I have used the GA 170 instead. However, this scenario will eventually be updated when it’s released.
3.
Sometimes, in Part 2 (Newcastle – York), 4E04 – which runs in front of us on the Up Fast and is supposed to hold us up as we approach York – will remain stationary at its origin point at Northallerton, making it impossible to complete the scenario. I don’t know what causes this bug or what can prevent it – however, one way to alleviate this is to either restart that scenario entirely – or go into the editor from the main menu.
