    So I bought the WCML pack which included the 350. I do like it despite the technical issues that are fairly well known at this point. The issue is that the 350 sound seems to have replaced the 444/450 sound in the game files, which I already had from the GBRJ pack. Is there s way I can fix this? It's not the biggest deal, just slightly annoying when the DLC seems to have broken unrelated assets. Also weirdly enough this sound change doesn't affect the 360 at all, which out of all the trains easily has the furthest from reality sound in my opinion (though maybe it's just the only one I've experienced for long periods) and funnily enough sounds the most similar to the 350 out of the four!

    And that's before I remember that London Midland was already taken over by West Midlands Trains 2 years prior to Avanti West coast even existing.

    Also for some reason I can't get the 801 scenarios to show up even though the train itself is available in quick drive. I've already tried validating game files and directly copying the scenarios from the GBRJ files. Any ideas?

    Installing an add-on does not normally affect a different add-on.
    The files are in different folders and have different names
    Just because the 350 and 360 are of the same Desiro family in real life they have different files in the game

    Start by removing the GBRJ pack with the Steam Client,
    Click on Library - I assume GBRJ is part of Train Simulator -
    Right click on Train Simulator on the left then Properties > DLC
    You will now have a list of everything installed on your computer for the game
    Find GBRJ then untick the box next to it
    After 5 seconds or so re-tick the box and Steam will download a default copy

    The 801
    A scenario has a lot more information with it than go from a to b
    The scenario contains information about the route which has a unique Hex number.
    Copying a scenario from one route to another does not work without a bit of messing in the files

    If the reinstalling of the GBRJ pack does not solve the problem with the 444/450 sounds you need to raise a ticket with DTG

    Thanks for replying. I couldn't find GBRJ in the Train Sim menu, but I did find the DLC packs. I'm redownloading all of them except the legacy 444 that I had installed. Not sure why, thought it was replaced when I got the GBRJ bundle. I also uninstalled GBRJ as honestly I never used it once.
