    I've just played this scenario, and although I was able to complete it without issue, it doesn't make any sense. Unless I am missing something, the entire scenario seems a bit pointless with no sign of the three-point-turn from the title.

    As part of the scenario you drive from Piccadilly to Glossop, expecting to be diverted due to cows on the line at Dinting. Unfortunately, since the cows are on the Woodhead side of the station rather than the Glossop side, it plays out exactly the same as any of the Piccadilly to Hadfield (Part 1) timetable services.

    I can only assume they have put the cows on the wrong side, as if they were blocking the Glossop Line then you would be forced to go on the Woodhead side, travel via Hadfield, and then change ends before travelling travel to Glossop.

    I thought the point of scenarios was to do something out of the ordinary that doesn't occur in timetable mode. Am I missing the point of this one?

    Stop milking the situation… :)

    This was supposed to be the cream of scenarios.

    We had better butter up DTG to fix it.

    Will now get my coat…
