    Hi team,
    I love the West Cornwall Local. But the lack of an organic exiting point or a maintenance facility makes operations feel incomplete.

    Many people invest heavily in these routes and we want to see them reach their full potential.

    I have these specific suggestions to improve realism and gameplay:

    1).Extend the route via Par to Plymouth:

    The current end point at St Austell ignores the critical next stop at Par, which serves as an important junction. Expanding the remaining 44 miles to Plymouth would allow players to call at all 10 missing intermediate stations:

    Par, Lostwithiel, Bodmin Parkway, Liskeard, Menhieniot, St Germans, Saltash, St Budeaux Ferry Road, Keynsham, and Plymouth.

    2).Add crucial maintenance and freight yards:

    This extension would solve the lack of infrastructure by adding Laira TMD
    (Traction Maintenance Depot) just outside Plymouth for train storage and servicing. It would also introduce Par Harbor tracks, Truro Yard, and Fowey China Clay Docks for authentic freight operations.

    Thank you for considering these improvements for the Cornwall Local line!

    WCL doesn't need a remaster. It needs an overhaul

    But I do agree, that route does need a lot of love and if it wasn't for the Seacow & Turbot wagons showing up a lot in Just Trains' routes, I would un-install the route

    Totally agree. I never play it because it’s so bad.

    It needs throwing in the bin and starting over from scratch, with a developer who knows what they are doing! :)
