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 Location Index graphic, or go to the bottom of the page for all the session links (all links will open in this window).
Getting Started:
  1. Open the session SAR Northern Division Free Roam Session V2 into Trainz Driver. To do this:
    • From the Driver/Surveyor loading screen select the route SAR Northern Division (Narrow Gauge) Route v2
    • Then select VIEW SESSIONS
    • Then select the session SAR Northern Division Free Roam Session V2
    • Click DRIVE SESSION
  2. If you have already closed the opening message window then pause the session by pressing the  P  key.
  3. If you decide to set the session clock to a different starting time then follow the instructions shown in the Orders section
  4. 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 Wolseley or Railcar, then click the tick icon, OR
    • Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find either:-
    • the loco name (Wolseley Railcar) OR
    • the driver icon (named Rail Car) - this is a non-animated icon
    then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco.
  5. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Peterborough Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Peterborough. In each location details page:-
    • the Tab HM White.png tab gives an overall summary of each location with a "potted" history (where available).
    • the Tab TM Grey.png tab reveals the invisible TM Track Marks for Drive To commands.
    • the Tab IN Grey.png tab lists all active industries and their commodities.
    • the Tab SW Grey.png tab describes the names, locations and settings of all junction switches as well as some switch sets you may want to use.
  6. Each location details page has direct links to the adjacent locations so you can explore along the route.

Orders:
  1. Drive to car out of the  Loco Depot  shed and into the yard
  2. Select a destination for the inspection trip

    • pick a destination where there is a turntable or a turning  WYE  because driving in reverse is a real pain in the neck. See the destination list at the top of this page
    • if you will be heading west (towards Gladstone or on the Quorn line) then turn the car first
  3. At the completion of the inspection run return the car to the Peterborough  Loco Depot  or to a  Loco Depot  at the selected destination
