    Hello everyone, today i would like to talk about this suggestion if the London Overground East London Line with the class 318/1 EMU.London Overground is a primarily surface rail transport network serving the greater London area. London Overground covers Greater London and the County of Hertfordshire, it is a suburban rail network (many of the lines share traffic with freight services), although transit frequencies tend to be bring closer to those of the Tube frequencies.The East London line is part of the London Overground, running north to south through the East, Docklands and South areas of London. It was previously a line of the London Underground. The current London Overground service is 16 trains per hour in each direction. Northbound trains terminate at Highbury & Islington or Dalston Junction (8tph each). Southbound trains terminate at West Croydon, Crystal Palace, New Cross and Clapham Junction (4tph each). OVERGROUND train line operates on everyday. Regular schedule hours: 5:39 AM - 11:54 PM

    A Friday and Saturday night service was introduced between Dalston Junction and New Cross Gate (not stopping at Whitechapel)
    The line is operated by class 378 with 5 cars. The British Rail Class 378 Capitalstar is an electric multiple-unit passenger train specifically designed for the London Overground network. It is part of Bombardier Transportation's Electrostar family. A total of 57 five-car trains have been built - most of which were originally built as three- or four-car units. The Class 378 Capitalstar is a dual-voltage electric multiple-unit train (EMU), designed to be supplied via either the 750 V DC third rail or the 25 kV 50 Hz AC overhead lines.[6] It is a customised version of Bombardier's
    The line's redevelopment work required the creation of several new stations, so the line now serves the following stations:

    Highbury & Islington Underground no-text.svg
    Canonbury
    Dalston Junction
    Haggerston
    Hoxton

    Yeah I like the route, but:
    Make your suggestion a bit more clear/simple and proofread;
    Don’t use other people’s content without special mention, especially when they are on these forums.

    Personally I prefer the ELR when it was part of LT/LUL and operated by the A60 stock as part of the Metropolitan Line. That could be a good project for a smaller, budget, route.

    Excellent idea and your route links with BML at New Cross Gate therefore it can be sold as Rush Hour East London and Brighton Lines.

    I kind of would prefer the North London, West London and Goblin Lines over the East London Line, simply because A) The old Train Simulator route was exactly that, B) It links with BML at Clapham Junction and BKL at Harrow and Wealdstone, and C) It's a bit more of a network than the East London Line, especially if that doesn't include the South London Line.

    Yes I understand, I suggested the East London Line for a change and it has the most stations and class 378. But I will be offering the South, North and West London Lines soon it's planned. Thank you for your point of view

    Hello guys. In this video you will find London Brighton with class 377 EMU connecting with the East London Line. It could be related with Rush Hour London Commuter.
    Thank you for watching. Thank you driverwoods#1787 for letting me know ;)

    No part of the LO ELL matches up with the in game BML, except Clapham Junction and Battersea Park, but these would not be driveable as the route beyond these stations doesn’t exist.

    People keep asking for ECW and BML to be joined up, and they only link at Brighton, so I wouldn't think it a push for people to ask for some AI or non-drivable from Battersea etc
