- Hello and welcome back to another episode of Train Sim Classic!
Today we're going to be driving the Class 387 on a scenario made by Magic Toad. This scenario will see us drive a 90 minute journey from London Kings Cross to Cambridge on the Alan Thomson Sim Kings Cross to Kings Lynn route.
Part 1 involves us driving this 8 car Class 387 Electrostar unit from London Kings Cross, as far as Welwyn Garden City. The scenario is set in the early 2020s so there's plenty of modern stock to be witnessed. We're a semi fast service so will be calling at a few stations en route.

Thanks Joe, keep the great TS videos going.
Ooft I've just recorded part 2! Keep an eye out for it Saturday :)
Its nice to see my local line, I live in King's Lynn so seeing this really is pretty cool. I do hope this is made in a modern train sim world game
New joe video!!! Must watch within 6 hours of upload
No fighting with others to get to the front of the queue! I hope I didn't disappoint :D
Great video Joe 🔥
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video, Joe. Just subbed and always love seeing TSC! Your route knowledge really makes the commentary tops. BZ!
Thanks TachiTekmo! To be honest I'm just blagging it mostly haha, the london area really isn't my strong point but I do try :D
I’ve been watching you for a while and keep up the brilliant work 😊
Thanks for your kind message @A_CZcamsr_Thatisfunny! I'll try keep it up :D
Joe yet again another brilliant video i just wanna say, im only joking on by the way, but the voice crack at 1:22 is absolutely amazing😂😂
Got couple quick shorts in the cab with my uncle last year in the 387 gatwick livery
Nice train Joe
Thanks Will :D It's a great drive! :D
@@JoeDobsongamingthats great
Do a video on the new Class 317 pack and you could do a run from Peterborough to Kings Cross with it.
It's typical isn't it, I had no idea it was coming out and I'd already recorded this haha. I was thinking of livestreaming but I might not get the chance :(
Funnily enough, right as u set this for premiere, I was in Kings Cross abt to head up to Donny and there was an issue with this route where the overhead equipment broke and trains were getting diverted via St Pancras 😅 (This is Tuesday evening)
I wish my pc could look like that 😄
is there a route update i missed, just tried this scenario and the start signal for me is the driver side
How did you get this route
Could you do a run to kings lynn at some point from kgx i believe there a route that goes the hole way
That's the route we're currently on @tjwillow20! It's just this service goes as far as Cambridge. Maybe we could do it on a livestream sometime :D
@@JoeDobsongaminghow did this man post a comment a day ago when the video just came out 2hr ago for me? 😂

Joe! Could you do a video/stream on tsw3 Harlem line or Amtrak Acela? Thanks!
That sounds distinctly American!! I know very little but I can check it out!
@@JoeDobsongaming Sounds Great!
Could you do more tpe stock vids.
I'll have to add it to the to do list (which is about as long as this 8 car 387!) :D
I live near King’s Cross St Pancras 😊
Oh heck! Always busy near your house then? :D
@@JoeDobsongaming yes on the Victoria line train
@@JoeDobsongaming and on the javelin train
@@JoeDobsongaming and also Euston is sooooooo busy near my house
@@JoeDobsongaming yes
The depot on the left after Harringay with the LNER sets is Ferme Park, the sets go on there for fueling (well no more) washing and storage then they move onto Bounds Green Depot after that
With regards to running fast there isnt usually any scope in the timetable to do so and get back in slow for Potters Bar it is an option for the signaller to get around the stopping Moorgate - WGC service should it be late but the newest timetable has the Cambridge service stopping at Ally Pally now so running on the fast is now out the window
I bet not long after they became electric they still diagrammed some EMUs to go for fuelling, we were asked this when we did the 333 course at Northern... "Where do they put the fuel on these".... It stumped us all and we all felt very stupid when we realised they were taking the mick haha :D
I live at hatfield. The place is very different these days.
Oh how's it different? Is it more built up than Train Simulator portrays?
@@JoeDobsongaming the station was refurbished 5 years ago and there is a massive multi story car park right next to the station. The nearby roads are now unregognisable to how they are depicted in ts because the ecml south add on is so old I was in primary school when it came out.
Oh wow, I guess the old Hertfordshire OMSI map will also be massively out of date then?@@danielward7935
@@JoeDobsongaming I've seen that map it is indeed outdated.
great video by the way baldock is pronouced ball dock
Thanks for the info! It's correctly pronounced in part 2 :)
@@JoeDobsongaming alright no worries ps im excited for part 2

Absolutely no worries at all my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed it 😁
