Train Simulator Classic | WCML Trent Valley | Northampton - Crewe | Class 350 | Part 1

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Train Sim Classic!
Today we're going to be driving the first of two parts of this 2U21, a service which runs from Northampton to Crewe. The scenario is around 1 hour in length and sees us operate an all stops service up the West Coast Mainline Trent Valley route.
We're using the wonderful Armstrong Powerhouse enhanced Class 350 for this task which is an absolute joy to drive. Hopefully there'll be a fair amount of traffic for us to see on our morning voyage!

Hi Joe I believe 350s are all 110 compatible. That max 100 is because its the resin of 450

Hi Joe, great video. Enjoy watching your Transport Fever and bus videos too. Canals do go up and down hills, that's why they hove locks!

[@Alanw80]

Brilliant video Joe. I get to Nuneaton alot as I travel down from Edinburgh to visit the other half as he lives in Nuneaton. When I've been in the station its always busy

[@damianc.0.681]

vlog????

[@JoeDobsongaming]

It really does strike me as a busy corridor that WCML Trent Valley. I've been playing Stafford on Simsig and there's so many trains it's unreal! :D

[@damianc.0.681]

@@JoeDobsongaming yeah it is fairly busy I mainly go to cheddington to trainspot. It’s really busy and if you go down the platform you can go onto the fast line platforms at 125mph. Trent valley is mainly busy on the Avanti lines as the super fast services from London direct to crewe or sometimes direct to Warrington or Preston go through that section of track.

[@Raygun-xb2st]

Gotta love a 350! Yeah the Staffordshire sim is great for variety, it's not impossible to run it solo either!

[@HamishG199]

Great video Joe as always I really enjoyed it one of the best (which was hard to pick) you stop at my local station Nuneaton in this video. It is very detailed but, when you stop at the 4 and 5 car stop at Nuneaton 13:07 you actually stopped at the 8 in real life and 14:10 and the houses in the distance don’t exist. At 15:38 it’s for work trains and was a siding. And also only one train stops at Polesworth as I have a Desk top Departure board I always rush to see that one Great video Joe I really enjoyed it

[@imranarriva.yorkshirefento1838]

[@JoeDobsongaming]

[@True_NOON]

10:55 well , i think they wearent wrong in putting joe as a guard Same as with the new 7X0s , the yellow board introduced in the 50s is just one of those things ingrained so deeply , feels wierd when its missing , i guess its there with the gangway but beneath the windows like the 377s , idk its missing like on ghe 717s

[@transportlegendshorts]

Hello Joe, you did not keep your promise on finishing/completing the Edinburgh Waverley - London Euston stream from Birmingham to London, you said on the last ECML streams from Preston - BirminghamNS or int’l you would do before jan 1st [well before Xmas;Christmas atleast]

[@damianc.0.681]

[@davidcurtis6698]

[@JoeDobsongaming]
