    Already out there in third party, and actually a very very good route. The line goes from Birmingham New Street to Euston including the Northampton line and the Weedon line so you can run non stoppers as well as the locals and regionals
    The current version of it has quite a few requirements, but with the LU and DC lines in the south that's going to be fairly normal. A proper freight run over the length of the line is about 2½ hours

    I agree, it's one of my favourite routes actually and the trackside detail is excellent. The requirements list is hefty (I was missing Edinburgh-Glasgow initially) but for the price of buying that E-G route I got this one as well. The scenario scope is fairly broad as well as you say. When they merge the whole WCML into one over there (assuming they're able to with the EULA's) it's going to take some beating in terms of long drives.

    WCML South is superb. It includes The Bakerloo Line too!

    Watford Junction to Milton Keynes is a brilliant route in BVE.
