The West Highland Line in Scotland The West Highland Line runs from Glasgow Queen Street to Oban & Mallaig. Between Glasgow Queen Street to Mallaig is 99 miles. Glasgow Queen Street to Oban is 61 miles. Oban & Mallaig trains split/merge at Crianlarich. Some trains just go to Oban and don’t split or merge. This route would use the class 156 The class 156 was built between 1987 and 1989 by Metro-Cammell. They were refurbished between 2017 and 2019. The class 153 The class 153 was built between 1987 and 1988 by Hunslet-Barclay. They started service on ScotRail on 19/07/21
It could also have Caledonian Sleeper. Using the class 92 with mk5’s The class 92 was built between 1993 and 1996 by ABB. Mk5’s were built between 2016 and 2018 by CAF. The class 73 and mk5’s The class 73/0 was built in 1962 by British Railways. The class 73/1 was built between 1965 and 1967 by English Electric.
Indeed. More traffic, particularly freight. Make the core loco a Class 27 with maybe a Class 37 layered in to represent the transition era. ISTR a Class 20 was based at the Fort at one point for pilot and local trip workings.
Good idea, would like the WHL in game, but like Matt and Vern have said, it would be better backdated into BR Blue days, well any Northern Scottish route could or should be backdated to provide variety in eras as Scotland has two modern day routes and no backdated routes as of yet
