What routes would count as "Northern" in this context? Is this a geographical reference, or an actual train line with liveries, like Cross Country or Midland? (To be clear I'm agreeing with you, this is directed at the original poster)
I made a thread a long while back about a diesel legends northern pack with the 195, 150/1 & 156. Feel like it would be nice to have a northern rail route with new northern rail stock in the game as the 323 is repetitive and it bores me out. id like to see a 195 definitely with its ZF Ecolife transmission and acceleration!
Leeds to York would do for a 195. A 156 would be at home around the Carlisle area. 150/1s probably Sheffield.

Pretty sure the OP means the rail operator of that name. In theory you could do a pacer/sprinter timetable for NTP, and maybe one for TVL too? But a suggestion that's more guessing game than solid suggestions isn't going to get anywhere.
Yeah, I'd need to see what trains in what livery for what routes to make it a serious proposal. trainfanuk#8324 Is the goal to make it sort of like the XC 170 pack?
I think that there is no chance that a pack would be made that contained 4 totally new types of traction. Most routes don't come with any new traction, some have one, some have one plus another at a cost and very rarely there's two.
The 150/2 we already have, albeit needing a few cosmetic changes into its Northern counterpart. So technically only three new trains needed. Although saying that, the 150/1 is also similar to the /2, the main difference being no gangway door at either end. So that means only really two new trains needed.
It would still take quite a bit of modelling to make a 150/1, you have the interior detail, the different cab layout, all of which would require new scripting which takes up a lot of time. 156, 195 and 319 adds up to more than 2 new classes of traction. Hence why I think this idea is highly unlikely. It would cost at least £50 for all the work needed. Building routes is currently quicker than making traction, that's why we rarely see more than 1 new type of traction with a standard route release.
Yea the 150/1 cabs are noticeably different to the /2. Main difference from what I’ve seen is the gangway and the back fuse panel. I work on 150’s at my depot and we get a good bunch.

Because some areas of Britain have unique traction and nearly all releases are only based in the very modern era (last 5 years) or are around the middle of the WCML area in the North West, sometimes both. And yes, I'm one of those who got unhinged in August.
