    Originally supposed to be for a route request extending the Fife Circle line in TS2021 but this gives you an idea what the route is like.
    Would be quite interesting to get the Forth and Tay rail bridges into TSW. Very scenic and quite busy too.
    Edit: Definitely a top contender for another Scottish route along with Edinburgh to Glasgow via Falkirk, North Clyde Line and West Highland Line Extension.

    Excellent idea this is actually a classic train simulator 21 route featuring the Forth Bridge. Introduces TS21 trains that that needs to come in to train simulator world they are Class 68, 800 73, 158 & 170. Of these trains class 73 can layer onto Brighton Main Line since it's a Diesel 750v DC Third rail Top Contact locomotive. While Class 800 can use Livery Editor feature from LNER paint onto GWR paint for Great Western Mainline London Paddington reading route. That's how community members do Class 395 into GWR Paint.

    the Classes 68 & 73 are potential DLCs so they wouldn't be guaranteed should this route be made.

    Wouldn’t mind having the route in the game but i would like to see the E+G line first before having Edinburgh to Dundee.

    The Class 68 is no longer in the Scotrail fleet due to it being Sub-Leased from DRS.
