Installment 8 in a multipart chronological depiction of an Autumn morning stopping passenger QuickDrive on Golden Age Developments' freeware West of England Mainline, phase 2, which extends tracks further eastward to Yeovil Town. Our journey begins there, stopping at all stations until the drive terminates at Exeter. Our train is powered by Caledonia Works' rendering of the LSWR 415/0415 class 4-4-2T steam locomotive, commonly known as the Adams Radial Tank. It is seen in Adams Brown livery, pulling six LSWR coaches. The loco proves insufficient for the task, though we finish the run by means I'll divulge at the appropriate time.

British Railways 7F 2-8-0 '53805' starts in the railway yards of Granfield located on the fictional Granfield Branch Line in the United Kingdom during a lovely Summers morning in 1958. The train is tasked with assembly a train of mixed freight for the markets in Setterfield and so the train picks up the first set of freight wagons from Granfield and departs westwards 8 miles for the railway yards at Setterfield picking up further freight wagons at Thenhill and Inchcombe along the way.

Ages ago I downloaded the MJW Class 60 Revamp pack, purely for a reskin or 2 that was need for some scenarios, and never really thought of using it much as a player train. Have just spent the last couple of days giving it a go with a selection of liveries and tank wagons in tow and must say I am somewhat impressed.

British Railways Thompson Class B1 '61164' departs westbound from Penistone, England with 4 British Railways Mark 1 Coaches operating one of the special Christmas services traveling 28 miles to Manchester London Road (now Manchester Piccadilly) stopping 8 times in between at Crowden, Hadfield, Dinting, Godley Junction (now Godley East), Guide Bridge, Fairfield for Droylsden (now just Fairfield) and Ashburys For Belle Vue (now just Ashburys) on the Woodhead Line during a cold Winters morning of 1955.

Installment 2 in a chronological pictorial depiction of a stopping passenger service heritage rail-tour QuickDrive on AP's Wherry Lines - Norwich to Greater Yarmouth & Lowestoft, a somewhat recent purchase. To it is added AP's route enhancement pack, acquired during AP's most recent sale (as of Jul 2024). With enhancement in place, this is the most consistently visually appealing route in my possession. So pleasing that I drove and extensively captured images of four passenger runs in rapid succession. This series showcases the first of those runs, from Norwich to Lowestoft. Motive power is Caledonia Works' "Single-Wheeler" GER P43 4-2-2 tendered steam loco, another recent acquisition, seen in its super-heated coal-burning variant. The train is, admittedly, not ideally suited for stopping passenger duty; the P43 primarily an express locomotive, the train overlong for the route's often small station platforms. (Coach count is reduced for the remaining three runs.) This is an out-and-about installment between station stops. We see an aspect of AP's route enhancement pack I find quite visually beneficial; almost all visible landscape anywhere near the railway and not otherwise hidden by trees, structures, and so on is covered by enough grass to look convincingly realistic: RWE2 (gimped), AP S&W2+Clouds+Veggies+RouteEnhancementPack TO BE CONTINUED . . .

The train completed the 104 kilometre run in just 45 minutes and I would find the results of this test being that the speed limits should stay as they are to provide maximum passenger comfort!

Don't you just love it when you re-visit a loco you haven't driven for a while and had forgotten just how good they can be?

Down the slide... it's 1990 and a peak hour NSE Thameslink service descends the recently-built 1:29 gradient from Blackfriars into St Pauls Thameslink. Originally the line did not descend but climbed slightly across viaducts, through the site of Ludgate Hill station (roughly where the front of the train is) and across a junction into Holborn Viaduct terminus. For the first two years of operation, Thameslink services passed over Ludgate Hill (street) and then down through Snow Hill tunnel to Farringdon, but the new line passes beneath Ludgate Hill, hence the slightly bonkers incline. (For those interested in the area, this cab ride video may be of interest as it shows the arrangements at the point of Thameslink reopening but prior to the Blackfriars-Farringdon rebuilding.) )
