UK Liverpool Lime Street 1986 UK

Lots of action at this busy terminus on two main routes, with frequent local services and most main-line services loco-hauled. Make sure that each service gets the right engine - electric to Euston and the south, or the appropriate diesel for Trans-Pennine, North Wales or the north.
This simulation is set a Lime Street Station in Liverpool. Lime Street is a terminus of the former LMS, previously LNWR, main line from Crewe and London Euston, which also carries traffic from the south and southwest via Birmingham or Kensington; other routes go to St. Helens and Wigan, for Preston and the north, and to Warrington, Manchester and the east. A connection off the Crewe route also gives access to Chester and the North Wales coast.
The station is seen on a busy Saturday in the summer of 1986. You have to direct all the trains in and out, selecting platforms to avoid delays and minimise congestion; you also have to allocate appropriate motive power to each loco-hauled service. You will have to plan how to use the available platforms to avoid conflicts between arrivals and departures, and adjustments will be needed when arrivals are running late.
