March 1952

Description

Covering the usual 6 am to 10 pm period, this is set in 1952 before the arrival of any BR standard locos or diesels in the area. Both weekday and Saturday schedules are provided; effectively this gives you two very different simulations. All services are steam-hauled, and they include a number of excursions and reliefs at higher difficulty levels. Freights serve the yards, including the large Whitemoor Up and Down hump yards, where many trains terminate or originate. As in other recent simulation, more detailed freight shunting is included where appropriate, and your area includes the wayside stations of Wimblington, Manea and Stonea on the St Ives and Ely lines. Bonus points are available for allocation of locos from the correct depot and of the correct type, and for correct placement of incoming freight.
