I managed to find a copy of the "Capitalism Strategies and Secrets" book by Lawrence Russell and soon realised the scenarios were completely different to the Capitalism Plus scenarios.
So I've now managed to get a copy of Capitalism 1 and used the 1.10 patch (that came on a CDROM in the back of the strategy guide book) and can confirm the scenarios are much easier (and ramp up in difficulty more slowly).
The only scenario shared by Capitalism 1 and Capitalism Plus seems to be the very first "Entrepreneurial Spirit" scenario.
My only guess is that the Capitalism Plus scenarios were aimed at players who were already very competent at the game and were meant to be a challenge.
It's a pity neither GOG nor Steam have Capitalism 1 and its scenarios available to play.
