A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session

Loco coal stages and fuel-oil points need to be refilled regularly. This service delivers coal to the loco coal stages at Jamestown and Peterborough, and bunker c oil (for the SAR 400 class Garrett locos) to the loco (main) depot at Peterborough.

Era:	1920s to 1969
Duration:	2 hours
Loco:	SAR T 258 on Gladstone Goods Loop See for a full list of locos.
Consist:	Attached to SAR T 258 5 CCC Gondola wagons loaded with coal 3 Tank Fuel wagons loaded with bunker c oil 1 Guard Van
The wagons have been placed in the order of their destinations with Peterborough at the front (loco) end and Jamestown at the rear (guard van) end. Each wagon has its destination as part of its name e.g. Tank Peterborough indicating its destination is Peterborough.

Each location in the layout has a detailed set of track diagrams that provide a variety of useful information

The Getting Started guide below gives a summary of what is available.

To display this information click any

Getting Started:

If you have already closed the opening message window then the first step is to pause the session by pressing the P key.
Next locate your loco. Either:-
- Open the Finder Tool (press Ctrl F ) and type, in the Name field, the name of the loco, in this case SAR T 258 (or just T 258 should be enough). Click the tick icon, OR
- Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find the loco name (SAR T 258) then click the drivers Eye icon to take control of the loco
Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Gladstone. 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.
