[Semi-Fast] Early Commuter

(Jul - 2022). Nicely done. Ran well with no problems. All timings were fine.
Would have been better still with some freight AI's running.

Cleared the Cache and Verified Integrity. The driver is back in the front cab. No passengers though. Strangely enough the AI trains(Class 365) do have passengers. Doesn't worry me a lot. :)

No problem at all. Even the Class 801 in my sim with no passengers and no driver in the front cab. No idea what's going on. Keep up the good work!

Well spotted! I didn't even realize the driver wasn't bi-directional for the 365 (the timetable is on the leading car though), I'll ensure this doesn't happen in future scenarios. I do however see passengers when I run it, so not sure what's going on there.

Thanks for the kind words :)

I have 3 more Early Commuter scenarios planned running from Kings Cross to Peterborough (starting around 0730, so after the current 3). I'll ensure the 365's are facing the right way.

Love this route! Well done route builders. Love the Safe scenerios. Just one question. Apparently the Class 365 comes without passengers which is no major disaster as most of the passengers looks like zombies :) However I am missing a driver in the front car. Is it driven from the back?

Thanks! I really do appreciate hearing from those who take the time to try it out. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'll leave this as is so I can continue working on finishing up the scenario for the 0505 Leeds to London Kings Cross (Class 801, usually a Class 91) that overtakes us at St. Neots. Most of the same AI is being used just at a later point, some have been removed or parked.

Really enjoyed this. Had no problem arriving at any of the stations and arrived into Kings Cross at 07:50:22 so arrrived slightly early. Good amount of traffic on the tracks. No need to change anything as far as I'm concerned. Good job, well done.

I just took another look at it, and I could change the scenario to use actual platforms at Stevenage (P2), Finsbury Park (P2) and Kings Cross (P6). It makes little difference to the times other than being sat at Finsbury a little longer, and getting in to P6 @ 07:51:10.

If people would like that I'll gladly update it :)

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed it.

The timetable up until Stevenage is based on the real 0632 to Kings Cross. However, for Finsbury Park (both Stevenage and Finsbury moved from P2 to P1) and Kings Cross (moved from P6 to P8 for AI adjustments). I allowed more time for this hence arriving at London slightly later than 0750 which the real 0632 does.

I just re-ran it and almost always got to each station early (each train has 35 seconds minimum at a station).

Anywhere in particular you're running late?

Not a bad run into Kings Cross.However the timetable is a bit unrealistic because it is near impossible for a train to arrive,pick up passengers and depart all at the same time!
