Cote D'azur

I am suggesting 54km of the Marseille-Ventimiglia line from Cannes on the French Riviera to Ventimiglia in Italy. This route would be good because:

· It is a length DTG can work with
· The scenery is beautiful
· It passes through three countries!
· It has EMU and Loco hauled passenger services plus some freight
· It provides additional layered services for the TGV Duplex

I'd love a French route using KVB!

 

I have some great holiday memories from Cannes. Would love to see this route, and more French/new country content.

 

I also thought the KVB would add an interesting element to this route

 

I think it's just overall a satisfying system

 

This really looks like an interesting suggestion. I'm upvoting this one. Would love to see more pictures of the route and the scenery we could expect.

 

I like your suggestion and I propose The Z26500 and Z23500 for a add-ons

 

I would buy this in an instant without even thinking about it.
