SAR Scenario Depot Fuel Run

Revision as of 08:51, 30 April 2021

	3 Gladstone to Wilmington Local Freight
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session

A twice weekly (if required) freight service from Gladstone to Wilmington dropping wagons at locations as required.

The Historical Bit

By the 1960s the Gladstone-Wilmington Line was in decline. Freight services largely ran on demand and passenger services usually consisted of a passenger car attached to a freight service. All its passenger services were permanently cancelled in 1969.

When the Port Pirie-Broken Hill Line was converted to standard gauge in 1969-70 the Wilmington Line became isolated from the rest of the narrow gauge network.

The line had no signals and none of its locations were manned. Normally only one train was given authority to use the line at any one time.

The line was eventually closed in 1990.

Duration:

3 hours

Loco:

SAR T 257 on Gladstone Yard 2

Other Unrostered Locos:

SAR T 210 at Gladstone Loco Depot

Consist:

Attached to SAR T 257. 4 MTW wagons, 5 QLX wagons, 4 WHE covered wagons, 1 DB Guard Van. Each wagon has its destination as part of its name e.g. QLX Wirrabara 2 indicating it is the 2nd QLX wagon for Wirrabara.

Each location in the layout has a detailed set of track diagrams that provide a variety of information. The Getting Started guide below gives a summary of the information that is available.

To display the data click any Line Index graphic, or go to the bottom of the page for all the session links (all links will open in this window).

Getting Started:

The first step is to pause the session by pressing the P key.
Next locate your loco. Either:-
1. Open the Finder Tool (press Ctrl F ) and type, in the Name field, the name of the loco. For example SAR T 257 (or just T 257 should be enough). Click the tick icon, OR
2. Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and select the loco from there - click the drivers Eye icon to jump to the loco.
Take a few moments to get your bearings. Use the (this link will open in this window) and click on Gladstone to load its location details and track plans. In each location details page:-
- the tab gives an overall summary of each location with a "potted" history (where available).
- the tab reveals the invisible Track Marks for Drive To commands.
- the tab lists all active industries and their commodities.
- the tab describes the names, locations and settings of all junction switches as well as some switch sets you may want to use.
Each location details page has direct links to the adjacent locations so you can explore along the route.
When you are ready to start, reload the Peterborough Base Session page (click the Scenarios button on your current location page) and select this Scenario again or just use the Back button on your browser - whichever is quicker.
Switch back to TRS19 Driver and press the P key to start the session.

Tutorial:

A tutorial on using these scenarios is provided in the link on the left. The link will open in this window

Tasks:

Take the train onto the Wilmington Line.
Deliver wagons according to their destination names. WHE covered wagons are delivered to Grain Silos . MTW flat wagons are delivered to the Yard Goods Cranes . QLX wagons are delivered to the Goods Sheds .

Turn the loco on the WYE at Wilmington.
Coal and water the loco at the Wilmington Loco Coal & Water Stage.

Driving Notes:

The Wilmington Line is not signalled. Normally only one train is allowed on the line at any one time.
You have been issued with an authority ticket for the Wilmington Line.
The approaches to all locations are protected by invisible signals to prevent the AI Half Speed Slowdown Problem when approaching a signal at stop.
Trackmarks and industries have been provided for AI Drive To Trackmark, Drive via Trackmark and Drive to Industry commands. Click for details.
Manual (no AI) driving is possible. As a visual driving aid, a Caution warning sign has been placed at the location of the Main Approach Dn and Main Approach Up trackmarks. Click for details.
