    With all due respect nobody really pays much attention to these suggestions: You give a TINY TINY bit of info on routes and give a really undetailed rolling stock - I'd recommend instead of mass posting suggestions actually working on your suggestions with detail - Nobody gives much care if you make 10 suggestions a week - Quality is far superior to quantity when it comes to suggestions.

    the scarbrough spa express could also be part of the timetable. A jubilee could run the service between Scarbrough and the sidings just outside of York calling at York only. A class 37/47 (or two) could then couple and haul the railtour to Leeds before becoming AI operated.

    You have a good point. Only thing they need is the copyright from RTC for the name.

    I'm not suggesting that DTG call it Scarbrough Spa Express.. probably something like Scarbrough Steam Special

    It's on West Somerset and Northern Trans Pennine but not sure if it's the right version for this suggestion

    Station list is important, photos is important and you need way more detail

    I did Scarborough-Hull on here, for extra info on Seamer and Scarborough, I'd recommend going on my thread called Yorkshire Coast Line: Hull-Scarborough in Suggestions ;)

    I feel like this should be an extension of NTP with a new 1st gen DMU and at a push a 25, though extensions are a completely different topic of discussion so I will swerve clear of that one now! Considering that I think that even in the modern day with 68s and 802s it would still be a very good route. As usual a good and solid suggestion mate.

    Very good suggestion, this route connects my local station and have travelled on this route many times so will love it to be in tsw3 and since no one has put a station list in the thread here it is.
    Leeds
    (Neville hill depot)
    Crossgates
    Garforth
    East Garforth
    Micklefield
    Church Fenton
    Ulleskelf (no trains on this route will stop here)
    York
    Malton
    Seamer
    Scarborough
    upload_2022-12-9_22-17-44.png

    The tpe services will include direct Leeds-york services and Leeds-scarborough calling at York, Malton and Seamer.
    The northern services will include Leeds-york services calling at Church Fenton and another service to York calling at Crossgates, Garforth, East garforth, Micklefield (and the same westbound for each service).
