    Selfishly, because I grew up in Yalding and Maidstone, I’d love to see the Medway Valley Line where SEHS could meet London Commuter between Strood and Redhill via Tonbridge and Paddock Wood, perfect for route hopping. However I’d like to see the route done in the early 90s though. I believe ATS did part of the MVL for TSC.

    Got to be East Anglia as it doesn’t have a route which seems unfair. Is the Greater Anglia license a problem?

    I think it's difficult because of the upcoming re-nationalisation

    Not sure why they haven’t done the c2c given they did Barking, and the detail was incredible so would have had to have c2c support and it used their house colours.

    Probably licensing was an issue until recently, but having now moved into public ownership that obstacle has hopefully gone.

    East still winning. South East second.

    So the sweet spot would appear to be a part of the Eastern Region that's also in the South East corner of England.

    Any ideas?:D

    I'd love to see the Edinburgh to Helensburgh via Bathgate/Airdrie with the class 334. Also extensions to the Fife Circle up to Dundee and/or Perth.

    Voted Wales, but think it's essential to expand Scotland further, including South East and the entire central UK cross-area. We desperately need Northern, TPE etc. at this point!

    I'll take any region so long as...

    1: It has some milage.

    2: logical start and end points.

    3: Its not plagued with problems.

    4: It has interesting freight services.

    I would love to see the NE Scotland mainline from Aberdeen to Edinburgh, but i think that is asking a wee bit to much LOL, i think we have all the operators in game already apart from the Caledonian Sleeper service.

    definitely would be great to have either Great Eastern Mainline, with Elizabeth Line going through that lovely Stratford station we already have modelled, or C2C running through a filled out Barking with some of Liam's lovely looking D stock replica underground services :)
