    Nowhere near enough information in this suggestion. Some people may not know where the LUL District Line runs from and to. I can state that termini include Richmond, Ealing Broadway, Wimbledon, Edgware Road, Kensington Olympia and Upminster. Furthermore, S Stock is the current type on all lines but prior to this it was a mix of C and D Stock dependent upon line. C stock used to operate the Wimbledon to Edgware Road Line with D stock on Richmond and Ealing Broadway services.

    Plenty of District Line suggestions in the recent-ish past on here, with much more detail. Suggest the OP searches for those and adds to one of them.

    The Class 484 is nothing like the original D78 and sure it’s fine for something small e.g. the GWE remaster but in an actual full route I highly doubt it would be added. It’s like if they reskinned the class 377 in GX Livery to be a 387 in London Commuter. I mean there is a different seating layout, motor sounds, pis display at the front. Especially in a loco suggestion for a train to supposedly run on the full route. So either make the proper D stock or make the S7

    Any version of the District Line that were to be made would surely get the freshly built original D stock rather than a rehashed 484. This would surely then supercede the fake D stock on GWE and perhaps be layered in in its place. Not building an original D stock would have everyone up in arms and would clearly be a lazy approach to take. Remember however, the C and D Stock would not necessarily be the types chosen as the route is now entirely S Stock. It all depends on the year chosen for any such route project. The 484 is simply a place holder in GWE remastered as is the 72 stock which will also likely be updated if we ever get a 93 stock with appropriate route.
