    It'll layer onto WCMLS, Thames Branches and Midland Mainline.

    Ooooh... that's not good.
    This won't be a 66 replacement at all then.

    He's forgotten about three other routes, WCMLTVL, B2C and MILDMAY. It's not as sparce as the 90. It also comes with a brand new timetable for the MML

    Not sure it has a particular home route but WCML TVL has the most services for it I believe

    I sure hope so. The Class 90 thing was very disheartening. I intend to get it, but also don't want to be disappointed.
    Anyway, I still have my Class 47 if all else fails.
    Can't get tired of that! ;-)

    Is this accurate from the Class 70 TSW Fandom page?
    Routes
    Layer Routes
    Wasn't Thames Valley supposed to be on there too? Or did they mean Trent Valley?
    Do we know the extent of some of these? For example some are just MOW and stock moves I think, many at night.
    How much of it is actual regular freight moves when you can see something?

    I have heard a lot of freight does move at night in the UK, but it doesn't make for seeing much of a route that way for playability.

    from what we’ve seen it’s pretty much a guarantee it will be. i wouldn’t be surprised if it costs £20 and that’ll be a fair price for what’s included

    Is it going to be an expert level loco rather than the rubbish produced by ATS?

    You mean you're not a fan of the sticker being a safety device? Lol.

    it’s not an expert loco by name but it seems pretty close. like the 843, it’s not branded as being the best of the best, but it’ll go far beyond the functionality we’d expect from a normal loco

    Well the Thames Valley hasn't officially released as of yet, so assumingly they've not confirmed it until release.

    This locomotive will appear on the Thames Valley Line. Johannes, the add‑on creator, has already confirmed this. It was mentioned during one of the recent livestreams.

    It's also there in the TVB layers list with some engineering jobs to offer additional confirmation if needed

    My point was that's probably why TSW fandom hasn't added it to their route layers list.

    the home route for the class 70 will be midland mainline (which is obvious, since it will be the route featuring scenarios for it; as for the rest, it's just timetables/layers)
