    Not seen it mentioned before so I would say it's not likely from DTG. There may be a freeware version though

    Did you buy TS in the hope that a route that you wanted would be included? A look at routes available in the store before you bought TS would tell you that it is not.
    DTG announce new product releases only a few days before actual release.

    Not sure what you mean. What old package?

    EDIT. If you had referred to the route using its correct title, North Wales Coastal, and asked why is it not available then we could have explained in one sentence. You posts are not very clear, ARuscoe and I have had to guess at what you are asking.

    The North Wales Coastal was bundled with Train Simulator in one of the previous years, but DLC are NOT part of the game itself, and each year a new bundle is released, superseding the old one
    The NWC route is available on some 3rd party sites (who sell keys to the old bundle) so maybe look in that direction

    It also happens that the NWC route was branded with Virgin logos and since Virgin lost the route franchise they stopped DTG selling it directly so that 3rd party route is the only route available

    Regarding the suggestion of Shrewsbury to Aber, where is Aber? Just take it to Crewe, create a new branding that fits the route, and release all three as one DLC to breathe some life back into the area. Or go Crewe to Stafford and connect to the WCML. I prefer the former for the SWC connection.
