Having taken over at Rugby, this afternoon you form part of Freightliner’s 4L67 intermodal service from Trafford Park to Felixstowe, hauled by a pair of 90s (011 and 049). Today’s shift sees you go as far as Wembley, where your colleague will be waiting for you by the relief lines opposite the McVitie’s factory for the next leg of the journey along the Mildmay Line and towards East Anglia. Things look to be running as normal on the WCML this afternoon, although do expect some hold-up from local services on the slow lines as you head further south. You are due to make just the one pathing stop on the way down for about half an hour just outside Northampton. Remember to stick to a maximum speed of 75 mph, where applicable.

Setting: 20th August 2024

Total Duration: 135 minutes

Track Covered: Rugby – Willesden Up&Down Goods Loop

Traction: 90011 + 90049

Important Things to Know:

• Due to the high volume of AI in this scenario, it is recommended that you Clear the Cache and restart Train Simulator before loading it up. For similar reasons, I have excluded London Overground services on the Watford DC lines and kept DIRFT, Northampton, and Wembley/Willesden Yards devoid of rolling stock to avoid further dumps
• If you would rather not wait ~30 minutes at the red signal outside of Northampton, then I suggest you enable ASYNC keys to the fastest setting to reduce this wait to around 5-10 minutes depending on how quickly you fast-forward.

How to Install:

1. Download and extract the provided .zip file.

Enjoy!
