With a route length of 60 miles, this route is also centered around Shrewsbury, featuring the northern section of the Welsh Marches Line from Shrewsbury as well as the line from Wolverhampton to Shrewsbury plus Ironbridge Power Station, which had another 7 years of use ahead of it when this route is set. Proposed Rolling Stock Class 60 in EWS livery Whilst the Class 66s were the most common traction on Ironbridge workings, the Class 60s did occasionally appear and this seems like a good excuse to get the loco into the game as part of this DLC. 38 members of the class were eventually repainted into EWS colours, with most of these now sat rotting away at Toton. Class 67 in Wrexham & Shropshire livery + Mk3s + DVT Wrexham and Shropshire ran services between Wrexham General and London Marylebone, and on this route they would call at Shrewsbury, Wellington, Telford Central, Cosford and Wolverhampton. These services were generally formed of a Class 67 on the London end of the set, followed by 3 Mk3s in BR Blue InterCity livery and a DVT in the Wrexham and Shropshire livery. This consist would provide 10 services to the timetable as well as the opportunity for the DVT to be retroactively added to routes such as the JT WCML routes. Class 158 in Arriva Trains Wales (ex Alphaline) livery Arriva Trains Wales inherited 24 of these 2car units and they were primarily used on Cambrian line services to Birmingham International as well as some Welsh Marches services, making them appear all over this route. The units are capable of 90mph. Class 170/5 'Turbostar' in London Midland livery London Midland had a fleet of 23 Class 170s, with 17 of these being the 2car 170/5s. These units have previously featured in the Cross City Turbostar DLC from Rivet Games, with some minor exterior and cab tweaks being needed to retrograde the 170 from West Midlands Railway to London Midland.
