    The Current plan we all know, but what about this;
    Historical (Reworked)
    This pack would see trains that actually ran along this line be added, instead of a 101 that hardly ever did such a thing, and would change things like station signage etc (only when you are playing the BR era) for a more BR era feel, adds a new livery to the HST, in IC125 livery, and keeps the timetable idea.

    Modern Pack:
    Extends OHLE to Reading, and the Depots.
    Adds the Class 800, Class 387 & Class 345, adds TfL Rail Services between London & Reading.

    DTG won't make any changes and they certainly won't be electrifying gwe fully despite the fact that we haven't gotten gwr licensed content in 4 years which is a shame

    Yeah, it's a shame, cause they have the assets. They just can't be bothered to do anything with them. I get they are focusing on other things but surely electrifying a line can't take that long

    Some changes would have to be made to a modern gwe route such as Getting Rid of Old Oak Common Depot etc. I do wish we got more gwr licensed content or maybe an electrified route but dtg don't want to do that.

    That’s a shame. Since this has been proposed quite a few times

    I wouldn't see the harm if they electrified the route but oh well. It has indeed been proposed several times and we haven't gotten any gwe licensed content for a while. Could they do it, yes but they won't so it is what it is

    Yep. And with livery designer it gives them a better reason not to do it. They just have to give us a different route with the 345 and 800 and we’d be set

    Option 1 you have have as ‘the current idea’. It isn’t an idea, it’s what we are getting.
