    I would also give at least an honorable mention to Eurostar :D ... if that one doesnt pop up from time to time despite many saying it isnt likely, then I dont know what :D

    I can only speak for Germany because i‘m not into british stuff but for us I think I can clearly name 3 trains that would be an absolute banger and would sell numbers like the ICE 4 will do.

    1. Siemens Desiro HC BR 462/1462/2462/3462 or 4462

    2. IC2 with 146.5 and 147.5 with new Dostos

    3. ICE 3 NEO BR 408

    Personally for me it’s both era and stock.

    Network SouthEast has been long overlooked both either on DC or AC routes.

    As for multiple unit stock, anything really that isn’t quiet and computer heavy. We really need and believe a lot of people want Mk1,2 or 3 derived units for either DC or AC routes, something with a bit of character that pushes immersion to a new level.

    Freight wise, probably a Class 50 or a Deltic I’d imagine being high up there on the list.

    But I’ll continue to make the argument for some decent sectorisation in the game. We have a couple of nice 80s Intercity routes in game. Let’s get some toothpaste liveries and units on the go!!!

    I do wonder what it would be after that. Maybe some C2C route? Or maybe GEML? I really have no clue.

    Personally I've had enough of ICE (for now)
    I would prefer a BR 120 or an Expert 103 or something regional and diesel: BR 648

    I'd also love to see a non-German expert loco.

    I'd pay serious money for something like an expert GP38-2 or SD40-2 along with a selection of rolling stock (similar to what they did with the BR145

    A modern mainline freight loco would be sweet as well, but the Geeps/SD40-2 are just so versatile- you could drive them appropriately on almost all the US routes

    I reckon the top ten most requested UK locos are;
    1 - Cl. 91
    2 - Cl. 55
    3 - Cl. 56
    4 - Cl. 50
    5 - Cl. 68
    With a special mention for the Class 25 in case OldVern is waiting outside school for me.

    I assume DTG have a stats geek who collates this stuff. If not, I'm good with spreadsheets and make a decent cuppa. I'm currently being held hostage in the insurance industry, please rescue me.

    why not a GP40-2 expert, then? since it’s a loco not included in the more recent TSW titles, I think it would be an interesting addition
    just like what was done with the DB BR 145
