Zwolle-Groningen SPR (9051) Lelystad Centrum to Leeuwarden at 15:24 Some good stuff for a 16 minute run! Spoiler: Just Run It! You catch up to the 15:21 freight out of Zwolle I love the way ATB works, especially the way it clears restrictions before you get to the next signal. I am really enjoying this route and can only imagine how much fun it would be to have a Dutch route with the traffic density of DRA or FFA.

1D14 on ECML route with azuma (801/2). Approximately 39 miles or so from Doncaster you start chasing double yellows. Lots of slowing down then going back to line speed. And given the speed you travel at on such a route if you aren't careful you may get the TPWS trip you.
Are you able to find 5Z56 ECS Preston Parcel Sidings to Blackpool North at 16:31? For the life of me i cant find this and its driving me crazy
Yep thats it! Thank you! Its one of the few DLC i do not have. I had no idea different DLC layered in new timetable timings!
Another cracking Mildmay line freight service to recommend in the Class 66: 11.49 EWR from Bow East Flhh (Olympics) to Wembley Receptions 1-7 Spoiler You are pulling a heavy aggregates manifest to Camden Road. There are sporadic adverse signals but the real fun comes when you are stopped at a red 1.3 miles from Camden Road on a steep gradient for a heavy freight load which requires quite a powerful hill start to get going. You then pass two other freight services being held at reds (including one of ones that is held for 45 minutes) so it's a busy time of day for freight in North London
Another one for Mildmay Line 2Y64 at 11.57 in the Class 378 Stratford to Clapham Junction Spoiler Heavy traffic including the midday freight services mean you have several adverse signals to deal with including at least 2 reds outside stations - some SPAD potential
Had a good weekend on Mildmay. 2N63 Stratford to Richmond in Class 378 at 11.51 has you running behind the EWR freight I mentioned yesterday for part of the way between Highbury and Islington and Camden Road. Looking back, the 11.49 freight and 2Y64 are pretty close to being GOAT runs, but I know these things are a matter of taste so I'll leave that up to JustWentSouth to decide!
I don't have Mildmay, but your recommended runs are tempting me ... Also, even for routes that I have, I don't get around to all the recommended runs. So, I shouldn't be the only GOAT keeper! I will leave it to you. I think the general rule of thumb is that a GOAT should be in the top 3% or so of the recommended runs. For TSW1-5, we have 24 GOATs out of over 700 total recommended runs. Thanks for your entries. I appreciate that they have all the information I need for the spreadsheets and I look forward to running them!
MBTA Commuter P589 at 07:28 from Boston South to Ashland with the HSP46. Depart Boston 30-45 seconds late and you'll have a 5 way meet just south of the station. Lots of AI along the way. Can also continue this as P590 after switching ends at Ashland and head back inbound.
If you mean "lots of signaling challenges," I would agree, because NYT's signals are totally borked: FUBAR in the old GI acronym.
2p34 on preston to carlisle. Get held at a red outside of Lancaster. Get delayed by about one minute or so waiting on 101 service. Approximately 3 minutes late.
I think it is because at least it's not just letting you be released from red. And plenty of double yellows to chase
WCML Preston - Carlisle: haven't played this in a while but I'm on annual leave and decided to give the 87 a spin. Glad I did too - ran 1S89 which is a lovely evening run north with plenty of AI traffic (just after 20:00 out of Preston). Set it to June and got a lovely sunset over Morecambe Bay as well. Only stops at Lancaster then fast to Carlisle, had to remember my neutral sections!
New Koln-Aachen timetable: IC 1927 to Berlin. Just another LZB auto-run, right? WRONG. You will be engaged (and stressed) from start to finish- just shows what traffic can do. Keep your fingers supple, boys. (Can run with either BR 101)
