It’s the height of morning rush hour and you form 1F07, the 07:27 from Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour on its first leg as far as Bristol. You start your shift on the sidelines outside Cardiff Central on an ECS run-around, awaiting the road into the station. 165131 and 166213 are your traction for this busy service, calling at Newport, Severn Tunnel Junction and Filton Abbey Wood before a crew change at Temple Meads where the train divides.

NOTES:

+ You will only need to TAB one signal in this scenario (NT1368 at Newport). Obey all other signals.
