I’d love to see the class 166 on the GWR route updated with useable windows and destination boards. Whenever I’m driving in the cab I can barely hear the engine and it’s quite boring to drive without the sound. I also think that the 337 should be added to the GWR with pantographs (obviously) and the route completely electrified, the route has so much potential but it needs more work.
If it ever was to be re done I think they would have to re do it from scratch due tot he amount of new trackwork, signalling and other infrastructure that has been added since the pre GWR Electrification days. Alas as much as I would love to see that done as well as the 332's 800's 387's and 345's running, as well as expanded freight I cant really see it happening. Hentis
I'd love to see it backdated to the 1970s. The class 52 could finally get a chance to shine and the class 42 Warships and the class 35 Hymeks could make an appearance. Or the 1980s when the HST had a proper noisy engine, the Paxman Valenta. Much more potential back in those days for parcels and freight traffic as well.
