    Now for me these lines are really close to home so I would love to see them added to Train Sim World 2. This DLC would include the Lowerstoft Line along with the Felixstowe branch line. The trains I would like to see in this route are Class 755’s as they are the latest trains on the line along with the trains they replaced either the Class 153 or 156 along with the Class 170. Another reason I would like to see this line on Train Sim World 2 is because of Wickham Market (Campsea Ashe) station as it has been renovated to look how it used to look when the line was first built. These pics are not mine but I think this would be a great addition to Train Sim World 2

    Would love to see this! As well as the port of Felixstowe for all the freight lovers (albeit short, if London to Ipswich becomes a reality you could run freight from the port to Stratford/North London line)

    Ah ok thank you for telling me that I’ll bear that in mind if there are any other Greater Anglia lines that I wish to submit

    Welcome. Just remember some will berate you if you don't include tons of info on a route you want, and others won't read it anyway so it's up to you how much work you want to put in

    I just hope I’ve put in enough info (although I’m not sure how the submissions work)

    How this entire forum works is we (the public) come on here and write posts, comment on posts and sometimes get heated on posts, DTG read everything but don't necessarily comment on it and hopefully at some point might actually make something we ask for (though they do their own thing for the most part, I've never seen a post asking for Teesside set in the 80s but they made it and it's not too bad to be fair)

    This is why I say put effort in YOU want to, because although we (the public) might read, agree and enjoy your post, it may come to nought and that's the way it goes for the most part

    Ok thank you for explaining but tbh I’d be happy with any Greater Anglia Service it’s just the East Suffolk lines are the ones I want the most

    Personally, I think a Greater Anglia route is really needed in this game. The GEML from Norwich to Liverpool Street with the 90s and 745s would be amazing but its too long for DTG

    Colchester - Sudbury : 17 miles
    Colchester - Clacton : 19.5 miles
    Thorpe le Soken - Walton : 5 miles (includes reverse at Clacton Town each way)

    Include the depot at Colchester...

    Harwich branch is around 11 m
    Also there is a depot at Clacton, bigger than the one at Colchester

    RTT says 19 miles 9 chains from Colchester, that's what I was referring to

    I think we can all agree that these would all be awesome to have in Train Sim World 2
