    Experience This Lovely 25 mile line from Glasgow to Wemyss Bay is a stunning scenic route, and with a terminus of a station on the water, like Ryde pier head

    [SET IN 2010]



    The locos:

    The British Rail Class 314 alternating current (AC) electric multiple units (EMU) were built by British Rail Engineering Limited, Holgate Road carriage works in 1979.

    The British Rail Class 334 is a suburban electric multiple unit passenger train built by Alstom in Birmingham. They are part of the Juniper family of trains along with Class 458 on South West Trains And The Class 460 on Gatwick Express

    Wemyss Bay is a station really near on the water, if not on it, a very scenic station with a very odd station design

    Excellent idea and there is an easy way of the route getting class 314s is having Cathcart Circle finished first then this one so that class 314 Mark 3 shell comes as a layer to this route.

    This is my local line, I have a few things to say
    1. The map you have shown is incredibly old
    2. The Wemyss Bay line is part of the Inverclyde Line, and is just a branch off the 'mainline' to Gourock, which you should probably just include anyway
    3. Wemyss Bay station is on the Land, however is inter-connected to Wemyss Bay Ferry Terminal, which stretches out.

    The 334 needs an appearance in a train simulator game
