    After a few runs on the Southeastern High-Speed route, I felt like the route doesn't feel too alive on the route's high-speed portion, especially at London St. Pancras station. If Eurostar service was added to the route, it would make the route feel more alive. I also propose an extension to Ashford Intl. to further justify my proposal for Eurostar services on the route since the only Eurostar stop on the preexisting route aside from St. Pancras is Ebbsfleet Intl.

    For the poll. I'd like Eurostar from London to Marseille, running along LGV. But I'd also take Eurostar on this as well.

    I have a feeling that licensing is a big issue with this company though.

    ABSOLUTELY YES! I have been dying for this ever since the release of SEHS. I also posted a similar thread, which can found here.
    I also said this on my other thread, but I would really only want the Eurostar in TSW 2 if you could drive it from St. Pancras to Ashford. What I mainly want is the SEHS extension.

    In real life the journey from London to Marseille is an average 6 hours 57 minutes. But I WOULD STILL LOVE to see the 373 Eurostar, with the 374.

    Yeah, I would like the 373 Eurostar to Ashford extension for Southeastern High Speed. Especially, the 374, but I prefer the 373 more. Still, excellent idea.

    DTG would have to extend this route to Ashford since most Eurostar trains skip Ebbsfleet. Only problem is that lots of trains also skip Ashford. You would be able to get some playable Eurostar services, but definitely not all of them. I definitely do want to see this though as we would get the entire HS1 line, and would allow for even more playable services. One thing that wasn't mentioned in this forum post is that Southeastern has a depot at Ashford. Stock moves are relatively common for Southeastern trains, so this would allow for some really interesting gameplay.

    But I think It should also have the southern route Brighton to Ashford International And add the Class 465/0 377/1 375/6 And 376/0 Trains

    Ja ich bin devinitiv dafür, da dies bisher meine Lieblingsstrecke ist im Brittischen Raum. Wenn die Möglichkeit besteht wäre die Strecke mit Eurostar auf jedenfall baufähig.;)
