January, although avoid any precipitation or wetness (or whatever they call it!) and certainly no dynamic weather!
Birmingham Crewe Modern Timetable (i.e. the one that comes with the 805) Class 323 RR 1Z23 This is a nice railtour run. I played it in May and it was quite enjovable, including the stopover in Stafford (provided that you have many UK DLCs installed).
Don't believe it's been mentioned, but 4M51 is a good contender. It's a freight run on Shap. Run in journey mode for best results. Spoiler you get stopped at Upperby by a Class 47 freight on the uphill gradient and after a slow start eventually catch up to it near Oxenholme, then its yellow signals all the way to Preston. You don't really reach full speed until Shap Summit.
Class 805 service on WCML: South, 1A38: Chester to London Euston it happens to pass THREE class 66 services along the way, one of which is routed to MK via the fast lines causing a wee bit of a traffic jam for those poor pendos (there are two held right behind it). Really nice run into Euston
Started both of these runs, didn't finish. As usual, DTG haven't bothered playing their own game - first run (Talent 2) ruined by dark signals as though the train was running under LZB; second ruined by the 411 not properly displaying PZB monitoring/restrictive modes on the MFD. I'm so sick of these little things ruining this game. There's no point reporting the bugs either because DTG have not a single shred of pride and don't fix bugs like this.
Interesting run indeed. Thank you. Spoiler: Something I have noticed When starting the service on PS5, the train at first will not take power. The electric mode does not seem to be properly set up for any reason.
Same on PC, though easy to fix. I thought at first it might be a random fault, though if there was an announcement, I missed it.
