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.
- If you decide to set the session clock to a different starting time then follow the instructions shown in the Orders section
- 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 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 Peterborough. 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 Trainz Driver Mode

- At the completion of the inspection run return the car to the Peterborough Loco Depot or to a Loco Depot at the selected destination
