Is There Demand For An Uk Freight Focused Route?

Huh interesting I kinda predicted it

 

Although it has a big fast electric mainline in the middle, Preston-Crewe kind of provides this. There's so much industry it has a lot in common with TVL.

 

Robin Hood Line & Ld & Ecr / East Coast Rail


yes very much same i would like a lot more freight i would like nothing more than to go to a yard pick up my loco collect hoppers then get coal from different colleries and deliver to different power stations


Then return back to yard at end of shift

welbeck colliery to cottam power station
then
welbeck colliery to west burton powerstation
- Then Clipstone colliery to west burton
then Clipstone colliery to cottam power station
each run x9 as one job

 

day 1 thats mine

 

It's not a dedicated freight line, but potentially some routes could be getting "dynamic freight" to unused sidings...maybe...depending on how they implement it.
