1st February 2022Hello, this is one ‘standard’ scenario for the lovely ‘Cumbrian Coast’ route available from OTS.

>Scenario Guide:
You begin this scenario having just arrived at Millom on 68017 working Northern’s 2C32 05:15 departure from Carlisle, you will oversee this service for the remainder of the journey to Preston calling at all stations on route. You are running a little behind schedule currently due to the late ECS from Kingmoor but hopefully will arrive in Preston in plenty time for the sets return working. No issues have been reported so far and a good run is hoped for. As you are running outside your booked path, ensure you watch out for signals especially around Carnforth, enjoy. A detailed manual with links to everything you need is included with the download:

That’s it for this one, I really hope you enjoy the drive. Please do feel free to leave feedback, questions, or any issues you may have via the download page on the website or via the ATS Facebook Group and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Look forward to hearing your comments as always. *Please do note, the DBSO is at the opposite end of the train to how these sets actually operated in real life, this is to avoid having an excessively, unrealistic, large gap between the loco and DBSO when at the front of the train as found during testing. This doesn’t detract from the scenario in any way.

Take care, enjoy,

An excellent scenario thank you
Wonderful drive, great time of day and super AI. my only issue was I couldn’t get my tail lights on rear loco, but other than that, enjoyed it, many thanks for creating it.
choo-choo, thanks very much for your comment and taking the time to leave feedback, really appreciate it. Delighted you enjoyed the drive and found the AI good too. I had that issue myself, I was using the ‘trail’ version from the Enhancement Pack as in real life they were switched on and supplied ETS but didn’t power the train and that was the most accurate way of doing it. Hope it didn’t detract from it too much for you. Thanks again.
Cheers,
John.
