    Hi again DTG its me again, I was wondering if you could add more local lines to Glasgow Cathcart Circle, example The Paisley Canal line, The East Kilbride Line etc, the list goes on & if you do add some 6 car class 314's to the lines that only have 1 train per hour.

    Can you explain what you want in detail. I and possibly many people here have no idea what you are talking about. We don't know the length, stations, rolling stock or what the timetable is like

    I can't give anymore detail than what is already there.

    Then go do your own research to explain it better for those who don't know the route. Clearly you know the lines by even mentioning them. It is your job to sell the route which you are failing to do

    I'm not failing at anything, do your own research, I have already done mine, hence why I put this post up.

    Your suggestion is like a professor telling the students to figure out something up themselves because he is too lazy to teach it. Your suggestion is pointless if you want people to look it up because you are too lazy to write it. If you have the time to write this thread, you have time to go on wikipedia or some website, read through it and write the details in your suggestion. It is not hard. Anyone can do it. Look at all the suggestions that actually have content in them with why they want it, a map, the trains that run, history, stations, timetable. So stop making excuses to not do it.

    Here is an example of a good suggestion below.

    Hello nathan#1878,

    you are welcome to make suggestions of routes and features you'd like to see, but please keep a civil tone with other members of this forum.

    Played this for the first time in a long time yesterday and it is a decent little route. Would be nice to get more traffic at Central though, probably better from a new route than an addition to the current one, as it’s fairly self contained.

    What would be nice is maybe a new loco DLC. I could be wrong as the route is not local to me but I think the 320’s operated on this route around the same kind of time as the 314s, so would add some variation and interest.

    1. it's Cathcart Circle, a self-contained route. Nothing else is part of it.
    2. Payed extensions do not happen. Skyhook gave us a huge insight as to why not.
    3. You do need to provide more detail. In a suggestion, it's your job to try and "sell" it to other people. Otherwise, it's a less-than-helpful way of getting people to show support for it - which is the entire point. Not just "hey DTG, I want this"

    Hi me again, personally I think that any more scottish routes should discover different parts of Scotland and a different era would be nice too.

    yeah so far all scottish routes have been somewhat modern so maybe a SPT route because I love the bright orange or perhaps and National Express one because that livery was so pretty but kind of reminds me of toothpaste packaging

    I was thinking a bit earlier but yes I suppose they would do the job.

    Not like this is an exclusive club with strict rules of how to post, but you want people to feel your passion for an idea and the best way is to follow the informal guideline. It's not a great way to start, getting defensive with other members, still thrashing after getting slapped on the wrist several times, maybe check yer ego and take note of what rennekton said about building a suggestion.

    Good idea! Maybe get some 380s and 320s and we'll be good to go!

    Yes it deffinatetly gets my vote ,any extension sounds good. I like this route so it would be great . 6 car units and class, 318 ,320 and 380 possibly added too even better .
