    Hello and welcome to my first Train Sim World 3 route suggestion. Today I'm suggesting the Wherry Lines

    The Route
    "The Wherry Lines are railway branch lines in the East of England, linking Norwich to Great Yarmouth and Lowestroft. There are 14 stations including the three termini.
    The lines pass through the Broads of Norfolk and Suffolk. Passenger services on the Wherry Lines are currently operated by Abellio Greater Anglia

    • BR Class 153
    • BR Class 156

    NOTE: I know that the 68s and 37s were withdrawn from the Wherry Lines in 2019 when GA starting operating the FLIRTS (Class 775) on the Wherry Lines.

    I support this suggestion, this is a line I frequently went on when I was little and with some of the trains which you have suggested, so you have my support this is a route we need for TSW3

    Think this has been suggested before.

    Personally think this would be a better candidate for the classic era, with Class 105 Cravens DMU's on the local trains, Class 31 and 47 on the through loco hauled passenger and freights then come Summer Saturdays, all sorts of varied motive power reaching the route on through trains from all over the UK.

    Excellent idea and for the train in the picture it is called a 755 Dual Mode Multiple unit because it can run on diesel and electric power.

    I think having the 37s and particularly the 68s would make this route and nice to have a route in an area of the country we haven't seen before.
