SKGT006 - GEML London - Ipswich: London's calling

This is a fictional scenario taking you on the GEML from Ipswich to London Liverpool Street, using a masterfully crafted Class 90.
You'll be making a couple of stops on the way: Ipswich, Colchester, Chelmsford and Stratford.

The scenario focuses on recreating a feeling of rush hour hustle, with many trains on the line, particularly as you get closer to London. However, it doesn't attempt to make it true to life - the timetable is fictional and to keep the requirement list short you'll only encounter Class 90, Class 360 and Class 47 trains on the line (which is highly unrealistic).

If you prefer an uninterrupted run of green signals this is not a scenario for you, but if you don't mind the challenge of yellows and reds keeping you on your toes during the rush hour - it may be just the right one for you.

The AI traffic close to London is quite heavy - be aware of potential performance issues particularly if you're using an older PC.

Disclaimer: the game crashed twice with "Out of Memory" error when I was testing this scenario. Both times it was shortly after switching to the free camera (8 key). I suspect that the memory usage spikes when the game tries to quickly load additional scenery for the outside view causing the OOM error. I was able to complete the scenario with no issues by staying in the inside view (1 key) the whole journey.
