Several of the railway games for the PC allow users to create their own scenarios. I have created the following:
SimSig
SimSig Scottish Sims. For the simulations themselves, see the SimSig site
1993 Passenger Timetable for the Central Scotland simulation.
With only the passenger trains to deal with this is a useful single player timetable, introducing the user to the area and how SimSig has implemented the semaphore signalling in the area

To install, unzip into the Central Scotland directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\SimSig\cscot

1993 Timetable for the Edinburgh simulation.
Full freight and passenger timetable for 1993, compatible with the Central Scotland timetable above for chained multiplayer games. See documentation in the download for more details.
Download for Edinburgh 1993.

Timetable for the Waterloo simulation, using the timetable of 17 January 2004. This was an interesting day for diversions with most of the 8 track route from Waterloo closed.
All up services are concentrated on the up Windsor line, those from Wimbledon ran via East Putney, whilst main line services from beyond Woking ran via Staines.
Download for Waterloo 17-1-2004.
To install, unzip into the Waterloo directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\SimSig\Waterloo
Timetable for the North London simulation
A partly ficticious timetable based around 1991. Several of the interesting services which have run on the North London over the years have been added to the
real 1991 passenger and 1994 freight timetables. This is for the NLL simulation version 2.102.
Download for North London 1991.
To install, unzip into the NLL directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\SimSig\NLL

Additional timetables for Euston and Exeter fully explained on this page.
Railroad Tycoon
The area used is north of Glasgow and Edinburgh, it is possible to create all the routes that existed to reasonable accuracy and gradients.
Of note is the use of two zones as traffic sources called 'England via Carlisle' and 'England via Newcastle'.
The terrain was created from the data in Microsoft World Atlas as explained in the file RT2maps.doc and then locally edited to suit.
There are two scenarios in each file, one aimed at following the life of the Highland Railway expanding from Inverness, and the second for operating as any of the other 4 Scottish railways.
Win conditions are based upon timely expansion and connecting to cities whilst remaining solvent.
Installation:
Unzip the the zip-file into the map directory in Railroad Tycoon2, e.g.
C:\Program Files\Railroad Tycoon II\maps
or
C:\Program Files\Railroad Tycoon II - TSC\maps
Download for RT2 and for RT2-SC. Both are 650kb zip files.
