    The route would be about 41.41 miles (66.64 km) in length. The operators along this line are mainly northern with LNER doing some services as well. There are 19 stations. Getting a licence for this I would imagine would not be to hard DTG already has an LNER licence and Northern is also operated under the same group as part of the Department for Transport (DfT)

    There is also the Keighley & Worth Valley railway that could be included this would add 5 miles (8 km)
    and add 5 additional stations. They only run historic equipment and some of the equipment they do have we also have in-game.

    This is a great route with plenty of variety and a highly requested one too. It'd be a day 1 purchase for many Id imagine.

    Great suggestion, I'd love this! There's a nice mix of old and new, big and small stations. The Class 333 is well-loved and unique, and plenty of layering is possible. Plus I'm a huge fan of network add-ons.

    The question is, would it be best to have it set in the present day or maybe a few years ago? Quite a few stations on these lines are being renovated at the moment. Off the top of my head, several platforms are getting extensions, a new bridge at Menston, and Forster Square now has a Platform 0.
