[MJT] 1Y14 06:36 Birmingham New Street – London Euston
22nd August 2024In this scenario, you lead the 06:36 London Northwestern Railway service from Birmingham New Street to Euston on an otherwise lovely mid-August morning. For the first half of this journey, you are formed of 4 coaches as far as Northampton, before joining with another Class 350 set as 8 for the remainder of the trip up to London Euston. Arriving amidst the end of rush hour, expect things to get busy heading into the capital this morning.
Setting: August 2024
Total Duration: 135 mins (2h 15m)
Track Covered: Birmingham New Street – London Euston via Northampton
Traction: 350375 (+ 350232)
Originally planned to be 1 whole scenario, I decided to package it into 2 parts with a pause at Northampton. This was simply due to limitations with the amount of AI/consists that the WCML South route can handle before it dumps (the total for this entire run being well over 70!). I have also kept the yards around Wembley/Willesden devoid of rolling stock for the same reason.
Important Things to know:
-
Please don’t Tab any signals throughout this journey. An essential requirement, the AP Signal EP has been used several times throughout this scenario, and all signals should be functioning as intended.
-
That’s about it….

If a comment appears with this one about missing track routing ignore it it is pending because i added links with screnshots if admin can decline it would be helpful. Managed to get it working yippeeee i done a fresh install WCMLS and the ATS route and it worked dont know what happened just the usual TSC glitch we all love lol. Thank you for an excellent scenario
Interesting, not sure what it could be about – my best bet would that it’d be something to do with the static Tesco trains/locos at DIRFT, or the unassigned Class 350 parked at Northampton P1.
Regardless, I recommend double-checking you have ALL requirements installed and maybe redownloading the scenario. Following on with that, you can try load it up again by pressing F2 then save and continueand it should then work – hope this helps.
However if this causes any other issues, or doesn’t do anything for you at all then please let me know.
getting a broken consist error when loading up part 1 its not showing what service in the error pop up to narrow it down for you to fix sadly.

It loads up fine and i can press F2 however when i press the button on the panel for the brieffing it dumps the scenario which is a shame as saw this and my eyes lit up 😀
I think i have found the problem. Have you made this on a version without the northampton loop as when you load it up in the editor it is loading up in a non northampton loop version hence why trains are missing destinations etc. Here is a screenshot of the player train as you can see it is not able to do the drive. https://prnt.sc/K0JHj1cZtJdn
these trains in this screenshot are missing paths because it is routing them through parts of the route that have no track when you load this up in the northampton loop ATS WCMLS https://prnt.sc/gBvJvZBJbj4U
it seems to be loaded onto the non ATS northampton loop version of the route for some reason. Yes i have all requirements installed including the ATS northampton loop i checked it against one of the routes scenarios and it loaded fine.
hope this helps
