York would be a really good train route and I would have the 220 doing services to York and use Class 170 from fife circle line
why is the thread titled york to doncaster? That's 20 minutes of field and 0 intermediate stations. And why the 170? No 170s run between the two, much less a scotrail one. (minus that one i did see leave up that way from doncaster works the other week)
Ok why? I mean, I would love to see York in TSW but not like this but more like: - York - Scarborough & Hull - York - Newcastle-Upon-Tyne (including the Bishop Auckland Branch) - Sheffield - York via Leeds This suggestion would more likely happen as an extension of current ECML route then it's own route
The section of ECML we have is moderately interesting to drive, but Doncaster to York is just about the most boring stretch of railway in the UK. Even Peterborough to Ely would be more interesting.
York - Newcastle then? And Newcastle - Edinburgh, the final stretch of ECML, in another DLC. And perhaps even going north into Scotland, by Dundee, direction Aberdeen and further?
I wouldn't object to it, if it was an extension of the current ECML. Newcastle to York or Edinburgh to Newcastle would be a better suggestion for a standalone route.
