    This would be and extension to eastcoasway from Eastbourne to Ashford International.
    Class 377s running as far as ore
    Class 171s running from Eastbourne to Ashford.
    The part of the line from ore to Ashford is not electrified.
    The stations on the route are Eastbourne, Hampden Park, Pevensy and Westham, Pevensy Bay, Normans Bay, Cooden Beach, Collington, Bexhill, St Leonard's Warior Square, Hastings, Ore,
    Three Oaks, Doleham, Winchelsea, Rye, Appledore, Ham Street and Ashford.

    It would be cool if East Coastway was extended. I do enjoy the route but it's not a long route and it doesn't feel complete. It makes me wish it was longer

    I think this particular route would be better represented in TS2021 as the Marshlink line between Ashford and Eastbourne, where we have yet to see any of the Southern trains' coastal routes. Plus I'd rather see a completely new route in TSW than extending an existing route at the moment, as there aren't enough varieties of routes to drive to warrant making extensions yet (in my opinion at least).
