Hi Joethefish
Sorry for the delay in replying.
Many thanks for playing the scenario and for the very kind comments. Good point about the water stop at Dawlish, that gives a very good and plausible explanation.
Very pleased you enjoyed the scenario.
Best regards

Really enjoyed this scenario, thanks! The AI was great and made the area feel alive and busy. Nice to have some facts as well!

As for the stop at Dawlish, I was thinking while I was filling up water that it makes sense for the freight train to use the water tower and the troughs be left for the express trains that rarely stop, which one had just gone ahead so no blockage.

An acceptable excuse I think but the new crew could have picked up water at Newton Abbot and avoided any potential line blockage.

Hi Fairrosamund
Thx for the comments.
Ref the stop, as creators we try to get timings correct and so the stop at the swan worked for us.

So the story line could be that when the inbound crew to Newton Abbot used the trough, the fireman was too late picking up the chute so it is broken.
Hope that solves the mystery:steamhappy:
Happy Driving.

Thanks for producing this scenario,it has made a good addition to my personal collection of scenario's for this route.However I find it strange that the train stops at Dawlish to pick up water thus causing an avoidable blockage of the main line,when there is a water trough available just a few miles ahead?
