Thought I would share what I have found in this amazing SEHS timetable created by Joe and James. I have all the DLC UK/German so your mileage may vary depending on what DLC you have. We know from the SEHS Deep-dive article that some services are seasonal. So see below my first surprise:- Spoiler: The Big Reveal I arrived into St Pancras around 11:20 on the 1J25 Margate to St Pancras Service and was amazed to see this Rail-Tour. I was not paying attention to month when I picked the service so don't know what month it was (Aug-Oct) Maybe but I know the time for sure as I have not done many 395 runs so knew which service it was. I spawned in every month ast St Pancras and could not find it so maybe some randomness is going on. Happy Hunting
Second surprise: Spoiler: Surprise 2 Appears Oct/Nov 10:05 and 11:20 (Seems static does not move but spawns in/out depending on time)
Following are AI Services: - Spoiler: AI Services St Pancras 12:20 (Any Month June Pictured) Ashford International 12:40 (Any Month June Pictured) Ashford International 07:10 (Any Month June Pictured) Ashford International 18:40 (Any Month June Pictured)
I also spotted This: In September I think Spoiler: Spoiler HST near St Pan 11:00ish September also I think. This was defiantly September around 10:30 Spoiler: Spoiler Class 377 and 375. Near Ashford
Nice one Joe, clearly you kept that one as a surprise. If you want to know about whether the ICE runs on this route, or whether it just sits at St Pancras all day, all I will say is this... ...if you ever get the chance, go and do the follow two services down below: The second part of the Charity Javelin Railtour (5Z12/1Z12 starting at 4:01) Service 1J72 from St Pancras to Ramsgate starting at 22:35 Make sure the month is set to either October or November and the rest... will play out before you're own eyes.
Well that was a lovely surprise, thanks. I have to agree... after playing... you should play and see for yourself.
I think the point is not the act of passing it, but knowing that you picked the right time and month to spawn it in. Sort of like the trainbow - yes, all it does is pass you, but its scarcity is what makes it cool! Also no one was told that this would happen - and it is a nice surprise to find that it does!
I’m gonna do this very service and then return to free roam when I see this rail tour and then give you some more info on it!
