    If DTG get the performance improvements in the sim it would be great to see an extra layer on the GWE timetable with 180s

    These should be done in a pack with the Class 165 and perhaps the branch lines too. So many possibilities if this were to be done. Pretty please DTG.

    When they weren't breaking down, the 180's were actually quite useful traction particularly for routes (such as Cotswold Line off peak) where a 2+8 HST was a bit too much capacity.

    Come to think of it, Oxford to Worcester as suggested earlier in another thread, would be an ideal route to complement the traction.
    (See, I can like modernish stuff... :D ).

    I would certainly like to see this added to GWE and think it would make a great loco add on for the route.

    the special livery certainly would be good to find especially if it’s like the 395012 and 395025
