    Manchester Vic & Picc - Preston

    Why?

    This route is extremely full of stations but still lengthy enough to get express runs in on fast services.
    I suggest this route because its services vary and the traction selection can be quite cool so I’m suggesting in late 2021.

    Manchester Victoria - Salford Crescent Stations:

    Manchester Victoria (Route Hop available to NTP)
    Salford Central
    Salford Crescent

    Manchester Piccadilly - Salford Crescent Stations:

    Manchester Piccadilly (Route Hop available to MAC & Glossop Line)
    Manchester Oxford Road
    Deansgate
    Salford Crescent

    Main Stretch

    Salford Crescent
    Clifton
    Kearsley
    Farnworth
    Moses Gate
    Bolton
    Lostock
    Horwich Parkway
    Blackrod
    Adlington (Lancs)
    Chorley
    Buckshaw Parkway
    Leyland
    Preston (Route Hop available to BPB, WCMLOS & WCML P-C)

    I forgot to state the layers: AWC Class 390, NT Class 323, EMT Class 158 & If I was to add a 3rd train to this route dlc it would be: Class 397 or Class 185.
