———————————————————–

Well well well… it’s finally here! Not in its entirety, but certainly the bulk of the
fantastic work. Enough to tucker you out driving 385s. Or 365s (woop woop) or
380s (upgrade when?).

With the recent arrival of the much anticipated ATS Class 385 Upgrade, we have decided to release Network ScotEast in 2 parts.
Part 1 (THIS), will cover all electrified areas of the route, so from Edinburgh to Glasgow (via both Falkirk High and Falkirk Grahamston), and Glasgow to Alloa and Dunblane.

This will enable you guys in the wonderful TS Community to enjoy and create a plethora of scenarios to use with the excellent 385 upgrade.

The unelectrified areas (Fife Circle, Longannet branch, and up to Ladybank and Leven) will form Part 2, which is yet to be completed. When Part 2 is complete, it will release as a FULL route which can go over the top of Part 1 and form the entire Network as originally intended.

More information can be found in the Manual. Please ensure you read it in it’s entireity.

INSTALLATION:

Copy the Assets and Content folders into your main Railworks directory. If you are asked to overwrite anything then select YES.

Then navigate to your Assets folder and run the ‘NSE Lampposts.bat‘ batch file.

–

SCENARIOS:

This route comes with two basic scenarios:

1R80 1515 Glasgow Queen Street – Edinburgh
2P41 1338 Edinburgh – Dunblane

These scenarios are only basic scenarios and don’t have extensive AI traffic, as they are intended as just ‘something to drive’ scenarios, and do not have announcements included. The only AI in these scenarios are strictly Class 385 operations.
This leaves a wide open space for the wonderful Train Sim Community to create more fun and extensive scenarios.

You must have the ATS Class 385 Upgrade to use these scenarios.
