I do have the Intercity Executive class 87 also have downloaded all of the Virgin reskins but i do not know why this is happening?. Thank you for your help.

Hello snapper50,

This scenario only works with the Intercity Executive class 87 downloaded from the steam store (plus virgin re-skin). The scenario does not work with the WCML over Shap class 87. If this was not the problem, and you have all requested dlc, then I can't detect the problem for you, I 'm sorry. Glad you're enjoying the series! Perhaps I will make another 'Branson' Series, as soon as I obtained the new Rugby to Stafford Line.

Can you please help with porblem when loaded i have this
Scenario Failed to Load.
Consist Builder - Can`t load rail vehicle - Class 87 Virgin
I have the Class 87 and the Mark 3a coaches also have the virgin reskin`s have followed Instructions of how to install reskins. I have tryed reloading the reskin and this scenario but stil got the same problem (Scenario Failed to Load) can you please tall me how can i get over this problem it wourd be Appreciated. Thank you.

It does not matter how many times you try you will always fail this scenario. You are driving a class 87 (top speed 110mph) not an HST, voyager or Pendelino and always you will arrive at Glasgow Central at least 10 to 15minutes late. Getting slowed down by 2 frieght trains before looping them and getting diverted at Motherwell does not help.

Thanks very much so far for your feedback Rockdoc! About the time table, I will look into creating more passing-points to keep the train on schedule. Also I was thinking about a version without the need of a class 57, maybe I will add this one later to the workshop. I hope you will enjoy the next episodes as well, and I am thinkin of creating some others, maybe on the GWML or ECML or Bristol to Exeter.

I was a just a shade disappointed with this episode. The building blocks were every bit as good as before and the storyline flows just as well but I ended up 6 minutes late at Glasgow because I didn't run at maximum north of Lockerbie. The ETAs tended to suggest I could run at a slower speed than was actually required. I would have liked at least one timetabled intermediate passing-point to help keep to the schedule.

A niggle: the player's 87 needs turning round or the game thinks you're travelling in reverse and TAB becomes Ctrl+TAB.

I don't own the curent 57 but I do have the original Oovee/Steam version so I substituted that using the invaluable RW_Tools. The FEAs can be directly subbed by those from the freightliner Class 66 v2 pack but they will be unloaded by default. Overall, another good effot.

Still crashes.. Got the HSTs though.

Thank you, i shall install them and see if the scenarios work.

there is you problem then; please install also these reskins and your scenario will work (

I have both the 86 and 87 and those Virign MK3s. No hsts installed.

@Remix (UK) Did you install all the required re-skins? Did you clear the cache? pleas give me more info; otherwise I cant help you.

@Martinrobinson1981 If you have any route suggestions for a next one in the series, Virgin ran on a lot of different UK routes, so I can make scenarios for about 60% of all UK routes downloadable at steam. About the 87: i bought this one during the summer sale for a bargain, and it improves the realism of the Virgin area a lot...

Love these Branson Virgin Scenarios. Unfortunatly don't own Freightliner 57 And 87. Shame really, Pt 1 & Pt 2 were really enjoyable.

Why did this and the 86 scenario crash for me? These don't work.

Sould I make another "when Branson ruled the world"- scenario? and on what route would it be?
