What is in this Pack?
29 scenarios Variety of Freeware DLC rolling stock re-skins
What DLC / Freeware Packs are needed? Ideally you will have all the DLC shown in the table below. However, the only essential item is the route WCML-N but almost all the scenarios will require some or all of the DLC listed below. Payware DLC West Coast Main Line North Add-On (WCML-N) Class 156 Addon Class 66 Diesel Locomotive RailWorks Add-on Class 67 Addon (RSC version) Class 390 Electric Multiple Unit RailWorks Add-on

Why did we use DLC at all? Many people have spent money on items of rolling stock that they enjoy driving and we wanted to add realism to the scenario pack. Rather than just allow any DLC to be used by the scenario authors a restricted list of “approved” DLC was created to allow realism without preventing the majority from enjoying this pack.
Do I need all the DLC? No! When you install this pack you will be warned if you do not have all the items of rolling stock that may have been used by the scenario authors. You may ignore the warning and still install the pack although of course you will only be able to use scenarios which you have the stock for. However, even If you have none of the DLC there are some scenarios in this pack which only use freeware rolling stock. There really is something for everyone to enjoy. The only item of DLC you need is the WCML-N route.
How do I know what DLC / Rolling Stock is required for each scenario? In the scenario selection screen the description for each scenario details the stock required allowing you to check if you have what is needed for each scenario before you try to play them.
What if I have the Just Trains Class 67 Pack? Just Trains have created a Class 67 as well as RSC. This pack uses the RSC Class 67 because the Mk3 Sleepers that come with the RSC version are ideal for the WCML-N. Those scenarios where the player train is the RSC Class 67 have also got an identical Just Trains version. This allows you to play the scenario with either version of the 67. The class 67 used is clearly indicated in the scenario name and description.
Do I have the latest pack installed? Every time you install any download which is part of the UKTS Freeware Pack project it will automatically check to see if a more up-to-date version is available and warn you if you are trying to install an obsolete pack. A small utility called “UKTrainSim Freeware Pack Updater” is also installed with every pack. This utility will allow you to check quickly and easily if updates for any of your packs are available. It also lists packs that you do not have with straightforward links to click and download them

1Z02 The MYSTEX by 1S811985
Background Information MYSTEX was one of a number of acronyms used by BR to describe various special passenger train workings: ADEX was an advertised day excursion; FOOTEX and RUGEX were for sporting event related trains; MYSTEX was an advertised mystery day excursion, where the passengers would not know their destination until they arrived; CRANKEX was used, a little cruelly perhaps, to describe railway enthusiast specials. Such special workings were a common feature of the UK railway scene at the time, and were seen as a way to put spare capacity, both of staff and rolling stock, to profitable use. Also a feature of the railway at the time would be the regular use of additional and relief workings to augment capacity on scheduled services. It was usual practice for carriage depots to maintain two, three or more spare sets of coaching stock, mostly of MK1corridor variety, in anticipation of such workings. Alas, such spare capacity, and the ethos of public service that it facilitated, went out of fashion as the UK's railway went down the road toward privatisation. I think we're the poorer for it. The summer Saturday MYSTEX's that ran out of Glasgow Central in the early 1990’s were a god-send to a small band of young enthusiasts looking for a cheap way to get south of the border for a day’s trainspotting. Almost all of the trains headed down the WCML, the majority bound for various popular day trip destinations on the north Wales coast but some would venture to the likes of Shrewsbury and Coventry. Very occasionally an ECML destination such as York or Durham was involved and this rarity was chosen for the scenario in order to have the train diesel powered and to justify the stop at Carstairs on the premise of a locomotive change. Though not routine on the lines involved in the scenario it was not uncommon for some passenger trains to exceed the length of platforms in the UK during the period depicted. Standing instructions

V1.1.3
Working together to make great community content were provided to the train and station staff within the BR rule books to cover situations when the train would be longer than the platform. These instructions could then be further expanded upon in special instructions issued for individual workings. In the case of train depicted in the scenario, station staff at Glasgow Central and Motherwell would likely be instructed to restrict access by passengers to the rear of the train, with the front portion intended for passengers boarding at Uddingston, Bellshill and Wishaw. The guard meanwhile would be under instruction to lock/unlock the doors on the relevant portions as required. On the return journey, staff at Durham would be under similar instruction. I doubt such practices would be permissible today and indeed, from a modern perspective, it might be asked if such operating practices endangered passengers? Well yes, potentially they did. As indeed would other features of the train depicted, such as passenger operated slam doors without any form of central locking under the control of the crew, or droplight and sliding windows that could be flung fully open. I guess that thirty years ago there was a different attitude toward risk, of all kinds, on the part of wider society. We may be safer today but I can’t help but think we've lost a little something along the way. The MYSTEX is an attempt on my part to recapture something of that lost age; when non-boilered freight loco's, filthy from their weeks work, would be coupled up to antiquated rakes of otherwise idle compartment stock and put to use providing the public with a cheap and cheerful day out while putting a few much needed pounds into BR's coffers. Great days, at least so long as you took your own sandwiches! Single Part Scenario Author: 1S811985 Duration: 1hour Difficulty: Medium (2)

Loopy Lanark by AndyM77
Background Information Set in the early 2000s, the brand new Pendolino order is taking over from the old Class 86 / 87 hauled stock. It's a summer’s evening and you're in charge of a 2000 ScotRail liveried Class 156 DMU. You're taking your 156 from Lanark on a round trip back to Lanark. You'll be stopping at Lanark, Carluke, Wishaw, Holytown, Motherwell, Shieldmuir, Carluke and Lanark. The scenario starts at 21:05, and you don't need to worry about picking up passengers until 21:05:34 so plenty of time to set your lights up on the unit, check the radio, brakes and turn the instrument lights on, etc.. The evening freight traffic is slowly starting to pick up at this time of night but is not likely to have a major impact on your timekeeping. Known bugs / issues: If you exceed the maximum 75MPH limit for the class 156 unit and happen to go over a sharp bump / tight radius bend too fast you're very likely to induce the “Jelly Cab” issue with a subsequent loss of controls as the wobble becomes more pronounced. This has only been experienced whilst driving like a lunatic (i.e well over the speed limit), and therefore you need to drive this as a 'real' driver, keeping an eye on the unit’s speed at all times. By doing so I have not come across the “Jelly Cab” whilst testing the scenario.

Steam Beat Over Beattock by Mervyn61
Single Part Scenario Author: Mervyn61 Duration: 1hour 40mins Difficulty: Very Hard (4)
Season: Autumn Weather: Stormy, Showers Player Engine: Steam: Black 5 4-6-0 BR Black
Description: A newly restored Black 5 is hauling an enthusiasts' railtour from Leeds to Edinburgh via the Settle and Carlisle line. It has made it as far as Carlisle and you now need to drive it north over Beattock to Carstairs Junction and on towards Edinburgh. Briefing: Drive the Black 5 north from Carlisle, stopping at Lockerbie for a photocall. You then have the long hard climb up Beattock to the summit before continuing to Carstairs Junction and on towards Edinburgh. You have a heavy train but put up a spirited performance and try not to disappoint the steam enthusiasts on board! As an added complication, not all the water expected at Carlisle was available so you are leaving with only a partially full tender. With care, it should get you to Edinburgh though!
