What Next London Route What You Like To See

I know it was outwith the OP (possibly) but for a purely “London” route, you can’t really ignore the Tube.

Now various suggestions and time periods have popped up over the years but something like the Northern or Central Line in its entirety (and preferably pre ATO and modern stock) would give a quintessential “ London” experience. Even just the H&C and Circle Line similar to World of Subways could hit the spot.

 

I’d love to see the Metropolitan line come to TSW at some point. I can imagine if Johannes at Incredible Trains teamed up with Just Trains to make it happen, that would be amazing.

Another notable mention is for Hammersmith & City line as it would nicely connect with Suffragette, Bakerloo and GWE remaster.

 

Metropolitan and Elizabeth line would be great.

 

Commonly known as the M25

 

I'd prefer not to have the Elizabeth Line as it's a clockface, all stations timetable. Yes there are two branches at the eastern end (there's also two on the Western end but we will never have Heathrow in the game) but there's no variation in the stopping pattern and the pretty much the same services during each hour of the day, tailing off a little in the evenings. Plus it's ATO in the core and the tunnels are single bore, both pretty boring driving conditions.

Far better to have a fuller Great Eastern line and a remastered GWR (which is coming of course). A route hop from Liverpool Street to Paddington would more than make up for the 20 minutes of sitting looking at tunnels and pressing the door open/close button.

 

Just out of interest London alone has nearly double the population of the entirety of Scotland.

 

No that’s the London Orbital Car Park.

 

First choice is pretty much any set route but I would love a little branch line or two or the Hounslow loop! With Hampton court would be the best lol,

2nd choice would be the the entire c2c network apart from Liverpool Street unless the Devs want to go the extra mile

 

Waterloo to Guildford and beyond.

 

I'd love to see the Thameslink routes, ideally set circa 2015 to 2017 so we can have both class 700s and class 319s. London Blackfriars, orpington, Sevenoaks and more.

 

If we were including Underground lines then I'm going with the metropolitan. With the options on the poll my first choice is definitely the Chiltern Mainline, runs alongside the Underground for a bit, then you get variety of stock and interesting service patterns. My second choice would be the c2c network. This is one I would love to see in the game. My third choice would be the GEML, we would have a variety of stock plus we would have a section of the Elizabeth Line/ TfL rail depending on the time period.

 

We have had the Class 465 and Class 700 for a long time now but we still don't have a decent route for them with full mileage.
I would be happy to get the Chatham or North Kent line.
But in general for London I would be happy with any choice. All the routes are of great interest: Peterborough, Bedford, Chiltren, Ipswich, Woking, Reading, Southend, Sevenoaks, the Tube lines.
