In 2010 while First Great Western were suffering from extensive stock shortages while waiting for cascaded units, two loco-hauled sets were hired in. Today you’re in charge of the top and tailed Virgin Trains Class 57/3s between Bristol and Weston-super-Mare before running empty coaching stock to Taunton to form the next eastbound service. The poor weather has been causing havoc this morning and there are a lot of delayed services around which in turn will likely delay you – keep an eye on those signals!

This scenario was going well until I got to Western Milton when I hade a Ai collision 1v44 ran into a class 158 I was not pleased with this Ai collision please could you have a look at fixing this scenario many thanks John Cannon
I’ve just uploaded an update to the scenario which should hopefully fix the issues you were having. Thanks for letting me know.
A Very nice scenario, in my opinion spoiled by the adverse signals at the beginning causing the timings to both Nailsea and Yatton being far too tight, resulting in a X at both, and consequently “Scenario Incomplete”. Enjoyable nevertheless. Thank you.
Thanks for your feedback, and glad you enjoyed it overall. I added the delayed service in front of the player train to add a bit of further interest into what otherwise would have been a plain run A to B without any adverse signals.
