Taking over at Llandudno Junction you’re in charge of Network Rail’s NMT HST for a run down to Crewe. Unusually this is on a Saturday owing to an operational incident at Bangor earlier in the week, so there will be a bit of interesting weekend traffic (charters and engineering trains) and perhaps even a TSR. Keep an eye on the signals as you head towards England, especially those semaphores!

Very nice scenario, thanks !
I played it on the newly released unbranded version, had the exact opposite of what you mention in the briefing, i.e. yellow distant signal with clear AWS ! Also had to tab two home signals in the first half of the run. No big deal !
