Mogwizard 26 Oct 2010 23:49:34 [Report] So that is what that building is with the MK1's, sorry Larch we were both talking about the same place. Did not know it was a restaurant, thanks for the info. If memory serves me well, there is a reastaurant/hotel on the coast up by Sunderland, it has pullman coaches tha form the restaurant. Mogwizard 25 Oct 2010 19:55:26 [Report] I have run this scenario quite a few times and welcome the feedback, that was the first thing I noted on my very first run, with the new driver interface you cannot see far enough ahead to slow down from 200 mph to 60, so the trick is to observe trackside clutter at a point where you can safely reduce speed in time. That was one of the reasons I created this sceanrio. To get folk to run the scenario more than once and then formulate an opinion as to the safest max speed and to hopefully mark the time for completion. ( Just to give you a hint) There is a well known buiding that has some unusual outbuildings not associated with that side of the fence, that is maybe the best place to start reducing speed. Thanks once again for your comments and I hope you continue to enjoy openiong up the throttle. larch 25 Oct 2010 19:17:44 [Report] It was great to be able really to open up on a UK route, but UK 125mph signal stopping distances mean that the checks at Northallerton and just before York just can't be done in time to avoid a SPAD! So I suggest dropping your speed to 125 by the time you get to Northallerton and the restaurant with the Mk1 carriages 5 miles from York will help you to enjoy this scenario.
