Hello, this is one ‘standard’ scenario for the lovely ‘West Coast Mainline Midlands & Northwest’ route available from ATS.
Length: Approximately 60 minutes.

>Installation:
To install, simply extract the .zip file using whichever software you have and copy the ‘Content’ folder to your RailWorks install “usually” found here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks

>Scenario Guide:
You begin this scenario at Stoke-on-Trent where you have just arrived with the rather unusual sight of a Cross Country HST running vice Voyager on a Manchester Piccadilly diagram. Due to signalling problems around Cheltenham and with several units being stuck, control opted to use this spare HST to cover a Manchester diagram which you now have the pleasure of driving on the return leg. You will be calling at Stafford, Wolverhampton and Birmingham New Street where you will be relieved. A detailed manual with links to everything you need is included with the download:
