    on the ECML between Doncaster and Newcastle with so much great history and scenery along the way, with the calling points being Newcastle starting point then calling at Durham, Darlington, Northallerton, York, then Doncaster where the service continues down to London kings cross, LNER also stable the azuma at Doncaster hitachi depot or Newcastle Heaton depot so there is great potential to bring the trains into service with early morning duties, it takes around 1 hour 23 minutes to get to Newcastle from Doncaster it would be a great addition to TSW thank you for your time

    Too long as things stand. York to Newcastle alone is 80 miles without adding a bit more to Donnie.

    York to Newcastle is a more conservative length at around 60 miles, it would be nice to see this route remade similar to the original kuju route from the early days of Train Simulator. Bonus points for including a Deltic!

    Ditto on the Deltic. Perhaps we could get this route with steam locos like LNER's A3 and A4 Pacifics (Flying Scotsman and Mallard respectively) and/or an LNER Green Arrow.

    Good idea but try setting this up as like the TS 22 version which was broken down as Doncaster York & York-Newcastle Upon Tyne
