1F03 Cardiff to Portsmouth

About the Scenario

For those that don't know me, I grew up an enthusiast and then worked for BR until Privatisation and then forward with EWS until 2005.

My interests lie with the BR era from the introduction of BTC The Modernisation Plan upto the end of BR in 1995. In the 1980's Class 33's

worked various trains in Wales and along the South Coast of England. The scenario I have created is based on a modern 1F03 06:28 Cardiff

Central to Portsmouth Harbour, as far as Bristol Temple Meads with a Class 33 and 5 coaches replacing the modern day units.

Good morning Driver........ first things first, get in the cab, get yourself ready and head out to the loco shunt.

You may need to stop close on the dummy for the countdown to activate. Be warned, the track on 9 road is a little bumpy. Your are booked to follow a London bound HST so watch those signals.
