    Is there an easy way to take any timetabled service and change the Loco (ie. Keep all the same timetable events, AI etc. but use a different train)?

    As far as I am aware, no.

    Removing a train from the timetable means it's gone for good.
    Maybe a mod? But nothing official

    Currently only possible with mods. Like mods that replace the Dostos with N Wagens, or a certain locomotive with another one in the timrtable.

    Matt has said on another thread that he thinks it should be possible to make it so that locos/units/stock can be swapped out in this way, and that he’ll have a look at it - so no promises made, but fingers crossed it may be possible one day.

    Oh I hope so, I really can't stand the 101. The 150/2 and the 142 will take over for the NTP/TVL lines!

    …and I’ll be doing the opposite, replacing the 150 and various other newer units with the 101. Everyone gets to drive what they want. :)

    I mean, that's already doable!
    The 101 can sub in for the 150 from either TVP or DLoTGW packs :)

    True, but I’d like to be able to do it on other routes, such as Cross City (which I could do with a mod on TSW3, but can’t yet do on TSW4).

    I don’t think so. As far as I know God Mode enables driving of certain trains on certain routes, but does not allow you to drive a different train on a timetable in Timetable Mode. I may be wrong though - hopefully someone can correct me!
