    Bit of an odd question I know, but does anyone know of any routes beyond the three that have the Dawlish Seawall that feature seawalls?

    That depends what you mean by a sea wall. A sea wall next to a track? A sea wall made from masonary? Or something else?

    Cornish Main Line has artificial boulder and dune sea walls at Penzance.

    The Kyle Line has extensive but intermittent sea edge running, but that's natural or blasted rock face.

    This one, like the seawalls seen on the Riviera Line.

    North Wales Coastal has a variety of sea walls, none are as long as the Riviera, but has more variety of construction and setting.

    Also the West Highland Extension has 'sea walls' alongside freshwater Loch Eil.

    The japanese Hidaka Main Line also goes by the sea. Not really a proper seawall, but going pretty close alongside the sea.

    Yes it works fine with the AP enhancement, but then it would seeing as the AP packs are requirements for the Class 43 Revamp Pack to work!
