WCML Upgrade (2003) – 1H15 17:55 Euston – Manchester Piccadilly
10th January 2024UPDATED 11/1: I’ve updated the scenario to use the latest version of the 87 pack, which hopefully fixes the stuck horn. I also added the BH Reskins WCML South 390 reskin pack to the requirement list.
You’re in charge of the vintage BR Blue 87001 today. Your consist also contains an extra DVT needed at Longsight TMD. This Manchester service usually runs via Stafford and Crewe on its way to Manchester. This Sunday evening, OHLE work is under way between Stafford and Crewe as part of the WCML Modernisation Project. This is a temporary solution in the run up to the Project Rio services that will soon commence. Therefore, you will first be routed north at Colwich and stop at Stoke for passengers to Stafford. You will then head along the recently electrified single line between Kidsgrove and Crewe, where another driver will relieve you.

Nice scenario with great AI! Just had to tab the last signal before Crewe pt. 5.
Really enjoyed this scenario, ran perfectly, no problem with the horn. Thanks for sharing.
I’m having an issue with your scenario whenever i load it up for some reason the horn is on and i can’t turn off the horn at all, tried restarting the scenario and still doesn’t help, please can you fix this issue with the scenario, thank you for reading.
I have the same issue
Hi, just updated the scenario for the latest 87 version. Please let me know if this solves it. Thanks.
No still the same
Sorry, I cant figure out what the issue is. I dont get the horn, and ive updated the train, re-did the rolling start. My tip is to just turn off the rolling start in that case.
No still the same for me as well.
Switching off the “Rolling Start” in the editor solved the horn issue for me.
Scenario still ran to time until being held at a Red just before Crewe which does not clear unless you tab for clearance, by this time I am now running late and fail the scenario on arrival at Crewe Station.
dont know how to
Did you have the 390?
no change
yes
