Austral 4a Steam 1

Austral 4a Steam 1

This session is for Austral Bay v4a. It uses default Trainz rolling stock, apart from the ATSF ore hoppers and the Victorian Railways S class steam locomotive. These items of rolling stock are on the Download Station and will be installed automatically when the session is downloaded. The session should take about three or so hours to complete.
The main purpose of the session is to provide instruction to engineers for driving a steam locomotive in Cab Mode. Driving a steam locomotive in Cab Mode is a challenge and you will be spending much more time reacting to gauges and adjusting the controls than looking at the scenery.
A detailed readme file describing the correct driving technique is included in the folder containing the session. You will also find the readme in a post of mine in the Auran Trainz Forums.
You inspect your locomotive while your fireman attends the fire. The Dispatchers orders are the same as yesterday:
Attach and load ore hoppers with iron ore.
Proceed to Basin Harbor, stop to check train and check for train orders.
Take break.
Proceed to Petersburgh and Anderson.
Stop at Anderson to check train and check for train orders.
Proceed east to VanDenH.
Unload hoppers at Steel Mill and leave hoppers in VanDenH yard.
Proceed to loco and sign off.
Class 1 railroad trains will be running at 10 minute intervals.
You are authorised to travel at up to 50mph except in yard areas where normal limits apply.
You are authorised to stop when necessary for locomotive purposes.
A helper will be available at Anderson Bank.
There is no helper for Sundermeyer Bank. You are authorised to climb this bank unassisted with this load only if you are not checked by signals after departing Sundermeyer.
Ends.
