    Hull to Manchester Piccadilly.

    I request this because we can now have longer routes and we can have a modern Leeds - Manchester area. This includes the following stock:

    Class 185/1 Transpennie Express
    Class 158/7/8/9 Northern Railway
    Hull Trains Class 802/3 (Playable till Selby)
    Class 150/2 Northern Railway
    Class 170/4 Northern Railway/Plain Scotrail
    Class 802 Transpennie Express Nova 1
    Class 68 Transpennie Express Nova 3
    And Many more that I can list.

    This route is about 79 Miles long with Journeys been around 2hrs and 4 Minutes long. This can also include the Train Depot Neville Hill. Can't add Pics as it won't allow me. and some trains run Hull - Man Vic.

    Personally I would extend the already brilliant NTP route to Scarborough to give us the full (nearly) transpennine experience as it was in 83 with another loco or dmu (maybe a 25, 56 or 110 of the top of my head) to add to the already strong line up we have in game currently. I am not against modern routes and I do think it needs to be acknowledged that the north didn't disappear when the mines closed but I also think this would be a missed opportunity to reignite one of TSW's greatest sparks.

    To break it down you have 43 miles NTP Present day via Standege Tunnel and 36 miles Hull to Leeds city. If you have present-day NTP with 1983 version the 1983 Standege Tunnel route layers 101 45 47 DLC Heavy Freight 40 & 08 Gronk to present day
