    1. Thomas' time trial " Thomas is timed to cross the island with the jet engine and the player must drive Thomas without derailing him to the end of the line, and get a very fast time."

    2. The Little Western DLC " you get the whole little western with Duck, Oliver, Donald and Douglas and new stories like when they all first arrived, maybe a thing with Douglas saving Oliver from scrap if possible. And close shave, ect."

    3. Living Tunnels " Henry has been naughty and is stuck in the tunnel, you play as Edward and take his train back to knapford. Gordon bursts his safety valve and Henry pulls the express."

    4. "Music for scenarios from free people like S.A. music, or Luke Pickman, or Headmaster Hastings or, Mike O Donnell, ect."

    5. Toby " 2 or 3 stories about Toby and how he puts an awful constable in his place, teaches the trucks not to mess with him, and Percy's Ghost."

    If they do a Little Western DLC, I hope they'll include Isabel and Dulcie for Oliver and not just Toad.

    Play as a locomotive instead of being the driver….. But obviously still have a crew that helps control the engine.

    Can you spawn rolling stock (coaches/ wagons) by themselves? It would be a great feature. And having the ability to have save points in explore mode would make it even better to allow for your own free mode of sorts.

    Maybe these exist but I haven't seen it in any streams of the game thus far.

    It could be nice to give Explore Mode a feature to set engines we're not currently using on service runs of our choice or even light loco, like say in the future we want to ride along the Little Western in Percy passing random characters like Duck or Henry. This also factors into if we feel like playing a passenger and hopping aboard the Express, I think we're able to sit in the carriages.

    Aside from that, a few more random non-playable characters in the background. We have Bertie, it would be nice to see Terence, Trevor, Harold, fill it out with new things to spot on our travels.

    There is a seemingly finished Harold model in the game files...

    Might be an oddball take here but, for photo mode or filming, since we have a way to change expressions, being able to spawn characters like Topham or maybe certain assets besides trains could be fun. Topham alone would be perfect for people's scene remakes without having to edit humans into the scene.

    If we get empty flatbeds, allow engines to be placed on them. At least the smaller engines like from Skarloey, Culdee Fell and Arlesdale should fit nicely. Gives us the opportunity to recreate something like Donald (or Douglas, whoever it was) taking Culdee to and from the works.

    1. NPC road traffic and people. Overall map feels pretty silent and lonely.
    2. Of course more trains.
    3. Possibility to create own timetables for AI trains and observe them from station.
    4. Passenger satisfaction bar depending on braking, being on time.
    5. Load cargo mechanisms from infrastructure like in Transport fever 2 or Eurotruck simulator 2. For example logs from Henry's forest, goods from harbor, clay from china clay.
