I have just uploaded a session that uses the BR 9F steam locomotive on the Riverside Railroad.
You might like to consider the session if:
a) You like this locomotive; and
b) You would like to try the challenge of driving this locomotive in Cab Mode over a reasonable distance.
The session will take about 2h30 to complete.
All the items of rolling stock needed by the session will be downloaded from the Download Station when the session is installed. However, make sure that all the dependencies needed by the double chimney 9F locomotive are installed, including all the dependencies needed by the cab and the skin for the loco crew, kuid 44090:57003, that Download Helper or CMP might not capture.

Charlie and Eddie, Control here.
Water and coal your 9F, then couple onto the bolsters next to Conoco.
Load the bolsters with coil at Hymill-Write and proceed to Lys.
On the approach to Lys unload and leave the bolsters at the overhead crane at Fingers Foundry.
On the lower level at Lys fill the hoppers with coal at the gantry and return with the hoppers to Diaspar. Unload four of the hoppers at Alan's Multifunctional and leave all the hoppers in the northern Transfer Yard.
Return to loco and sign off.
You must always give way to mainline trainz.
You are authorised to travel at up to 50mph except in yard areas where normal limits apply.
You are authorised to stop when necessary for locomotive purposes.

For those unfamiliar with driving a steam locomotive in Cab Mode detailed instructions can be found in the readme in the folder containing the session and here:

Note that the coal and water capacity of the tender have be modified; one of the challenges in this session is to arrive at the destinations with water remaining in the tender. Be aware that causing the safety valves to pop, which occurs at 250psi, will waste a lot of water from the boiler. Some driving and firing skills are required for this session.
Another challenge is the AI trainz that you will encounter on the return journey as you try to maintain a reasonable average speed.
Maps are also included in the folder containing the session.
