Austral 5a HudsonHeaven

Austral 5a HudsonHeaven

This session is for Austral Bay v5a. You have the choice of crewing one of two Hudson 4-6-4 steam locomotives, either the Milwaukee Road F7 4-6-4 Hiawatha or the Victorian Railways R class. All the items of rolling stock needed by the session will be downloaded from the Download Station when the session is installed. You may see the Black Screen when loading this session. Take no notice and click through - I believe it may be caused by the crew used on the R class.
The challenge in this session to in maintain a high average speed hauling the 6:30 Express from Huff to Anderson while interacting with many AI trainz.
Sign on at Austral Bay Depot, climb up into the cab of the locomotive of choice, coal and water the locomotive at the coal stage by the river (when stationary between the yellow markers the tender will fill with coal and water), and proceed to Huff. Attach the passenger cars and proceed up South Pass, take the right diverge at the top of the Pass (and just after the tunnel) to Tinkers, and proceed through VanDenH and Sundermeyer to Anderson, stopping at all stations. Sign off at Anderson loco.
Class 1 railroad trainz will be running. You must give way to them - no exceptions.
You are authorised to travel at up to 80mph except in yard areas where normal limits apply.
You are authorised to stop when necessary for locomotive purposes.
Water for steam locomotives is available along the route at water towers and standpipes. Coal is available at selected locations.
