    Hi! I this is my first ever suggestion on the forums and ill try my best to accurately explain here.

    The route im suggesting is a 1980-90s era route (hopefully made by Just Trains); WCML North between Carlisle to glasgow with a possible extension split to Edinburgh, or can only do one branch, that is fine :) Seeing as we have a route on TSC already, it would be perfect. The route is 100ish Miles long with a bunch of station in between. Stations after Carlisle are:
    Carlisle
    Lockerbie
    carluke
    Wishaw
    Shieldmuir
    Motherwell
    Uddingston
    Cambuslang
    Glasgow

    Pros:
    -Inetrcity license obtained already
    -Accurate rolling stock obtained, only needs a few liveries.We have the MK2s, MK3s, MK1s the class 47, class 87, and class 86, class 08, all are needed is the class 90 and mk3 dvt which would make the perfect era route
    - gives opportunities for players to experience more fun and enjoyment with said route, and would sell really well.

    Cons:
    -It would be a VTWC route, but a problem would be to get the license
    -The route is almost over 100 miles long so it could be quite stresful
    -good amount of stations need to be modeled, as for Locos the only thing that need be modeled is the 90 and mk3 dvt, as we have the mk3 coaches in the game
    -I do belive some other licenses need to be obtained along the route but im sure thats all.

    This is my first suggestion so i hope it ages well, this isnt the best explanation but im sure it will make others happy.

    Cheers
    Centi;)

    NOTE I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT HOW LONG THE ROUTE IS I TRIED DOING MY RESEARCH WELL AND IT FAILED :sob:

    Just Trains have already said that they don't want to/can't do Carlisle to Glasgow
