[mjt] 1S26 23:50 London Euston – Glasgow Central (Full Journey)

2nd January 2024 10 By mattyjt02

The festive period is fast approaching, and tonight you will be leading the 23:50 Caledonian Sleeper service 1-Sierra-26 on a full run from London Euston to Glasgow Central, in a 5-part scenario. Usually, you would only take this train as far as Preston where your colleague would take over for the remainder of this service towards Scotland, but he has been unable to make it tonight due to illness. Consequently, you will need to complete the entire journey down to Glasgow by yourself!

Routes covered:
Part 1 – WCML South
Part 2 – WCML Trent Valley
Part 3 – WCML Midlands and Northwest (ATS)
Part 4a/4b – WCML Northwest and Scotland (ATS)

Setting: 19th-20th December 2023
Total Duration: 390 mins (excluding breaks at Preston and Carstairs)
Track Covered: London Euston – Glasgow Central via WCML
Traction: 92023

HOW TO INSTALL:
1) Download and extract the provided zip file, where you will find 5 separate folders corresponding to each part of the scenario (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4a, 4b)
2) Within these separate folders, navigate to their individual ‘Content’ folders. Drag these ‘Content’ folders into your railworks folder, and the scenario should be installed!
3) Find these scenarios under ‘Standard’ scenarios, by typing “[mjt] 1S26” in the search bar.

NOTES/POTENTIAL ISSUES:
– SPAD – There are only 2 occasions where you will need to TAB a red signal. You are also reminded of this in-game. These occur at:
(1) Pt3 – Stafford Platform 5, and sometimes at the very start of that scenario at Stafford South Junction
(2) Pt3 – Crewe Down Fast
– Due to the current lack of Class 195 and 331 in TSC, these are instead represented by the MJW Northern Class 170 and AP 319, respectively. Regardless, these units are stationary and unmarked in this scenario, so they won’t affect experience.
– Sometimes the Class 92 keyboard controls stop working. This has nothing to do with the scenario itself but is a bug with the actual sound pack instead. If this occurs, simply reinstall the AP Class 92 Sound Pack along with the Class 92 reskins and it should then work fine!

Wishing you all a Happy 2024! Enjoy!
