    it would be nice to see the WCML Euston-Birmingham newstreet/the Northampton loop aswell
    Trains 390 221 350 AC over head wires
    Fast and Express routes Local routes semi-fast and stopping services operators would depends on DTG getting the licences if possible

    I’m sorry, but the route probably won’t come for these reasons.

    1. Not a route reason thing, but you provided little detail.
    2. The route is too long and is about 115 miles, and the longest route in TSW3 is 89 miles, which is SEHS Extended.
    3. FirstGroup is not going to give us Avanti
    4. While we do have the license for WMT which runs WMR and LNWR, I already said this route would be too long.

    If we were to get the route, it would need to be split into two different ones. Rugby/Northampton to Birmingham NS and a Euston-Rugby/Northampton section. So yeah, not a reasonable route.

    There is a thread pinned at the top of the suggestions section which gives you a guide.

    They already have the Avanti license? It's in use in TSC.

    An Avanti license for TSC. Not for TSW. As far as I’m aware, you need a separate license for TSC and TSW.

    Funny that there is Avanti in the TSC version then!

    I think it is a reasonable route, it might be a little early for it for TSW but I don't think it is unreasonable to suggest it. If it comes eventually I certainly wouldn't want to see Rugby as an end point, it would be a very strange place to end the route, especially as a lot of services don't stop there.

    I think the longest route is actually Kassel to Wurzburg although it isn't that scenically challenging.
