    I would like to suggest that now we have both Clapham Junction and Reading featured in game, a route or two with SWR trains would be fantastic with layers added to both GWE and BML where applicable.
    The first possibility would be either the Portsmouth direct route from London Waterloo to Guildford or the Southampton route to Basingstoke. The other possibility is the route from Waterloo to Reading. With these routes we could have Class 158/8 & 159 DMUs, Class 444, 450 and 458 Desiro EMUs and possibly also the BREL built Class 455/7, /8 and /9 variants along with the later 456.
    This would certainly help to make certain locations look very much busier.

    Would love to see this route love the rolling stock love the London to coast and the possible layers at reading and Clapham junction would be very good for tsw because of the amount of oppertnites it makes
