    I feel like the class 73 would be a great addition to the freight fleet, the south coast routes could benefit to this as these are used on NR trains and RHTT across routes like the ECW, SEH, and even the riviera line.

    They are bi-mode so that can include a nice experience for players to switch modes.

    Let me know what you think of this,

    Could also be a sleeper train, the Caledonian sleeper uses a few I think, there’s one in Aberdeen anyways.

    in a sense this could make both freight and passenger fans happy, we get another new freight loco. And they get sleeper couches

    All for it.

    Up until the 88s were introduced around 8 years ago, the 73s were unique.

    Tsw definitely needs a 73. Still see them often in my area running measurement trains and rhtt this time of year.
