    Whilst these lines aren't particularly lengthy, 15 miles total when combined, they used some of the oldest BR freight wagons operated by BR at that time, these being BR 16t Mineral wagons as well as Presflo cement wagons.

    Proposed Rolling Stock
    • Class 25 in BR Blue livery[​IMG]
    Operated freight along the branches.
    • Class 08 in BR Blue livery[​IMG]
    Did shunting moves in the yard at Rugby.
    • BR 16t Mineral Wagons (weathered grey[​IMG]
    Occasionally used on freight along the line as well as being shunted around in Rugby Yard
    • BR Presflo wagons[​IMG]
    Most commonly used on freight along the branch.

    yes.. I would like more shorter routes/shunting routes in the game as I find long distance driving quite boring after around 10-20 mins

    I really want this route to be added. Also, it can have layers from NTP, TVL and WCL for more locos and freight wagons, that include PCA's from TVL.

    I'm fairly certain none of the locos and wagons from any of those routes ever ran along this line so it wouldn't make much sense to include them.

    Yes. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to add Rugby to Northampton then put in the spur on the old Bedford line to the MOD ammo base at Piddington (Yardley Chase).
