    This is an absolute must. Given that the 91 & InterCity 225 are essentially the electric counterpart to the HST, it seems a bit odd that their primary stomping ground in TSW4 won't feature them from the get-go!

    Should've been added in the core release if I'm honest but good suggestion anyway :)

    If they had this, instead of the [Removed - Alex: Inappropriate Language], I would ignore what I said and buy tsw 4.
    In all honesty, I'm pretty sure the 91 has been requested way more than the Hitachi's

    Excellent suggestion. The Class 91 should definitely be added to the ECML as a future add on.

    This was the first thing I was thinking of as soon as this route was announced! Would love this to be included and deffo a first day buy from me. Also I would love the special liveries to be included on 91110, 91111 and 91119.

    Would be a great DLC. I’d take this hands down. Not personally an Eastern kind of guy, but I worked at Hornsey for a stint before moving back to working at Brighton, just as the 91s were fading out. So waiting on the platform for my train home south through the core and having a 91 roll through Plat 1 next to a 700 was an incredible feeling. Powerful loco and the Mk4s are also rather nice to look at :)

    How about also a scenario with the 91 trying to get it to 140mph (maybe with the flashing green aspect signal as well)?

    I 100% agree, this should come into TSW4 it'll make the ECML even better. But I agree with pessitheghost it should've been part of the core since I'm surprised they didn't at least make it up to York. A big missed opportunity if you ask me!

    The Class 802 has been requested quite a bit for GWE in the past, though in my opinion, I think it'd only make sense to make the GWR 802s if a version of the GWML was made in the present day - so, in addition to the 165 & 166s, which still operate on the line, but primarily on the non-electrified branches), there would be the Electrostars and Elizabeth Line trains too - after the upgrades to the main part of the line were finished.

    The Class 800s have definitely been requested more than the 91.
    That said the 91 should still be added in as a Loco DLC.

    This locomotive has a blunt end which means speed is reduced to 110 mph 180 kmh from the design Speed of 140 mph 225 kmh regular service 125 mph 200 kmh

    Would love to have the 225s as they are nostalgic pieces of rolling stock which are still quite a common site on the line. Great pieces of rolling stock.
    On this section of line down stoke bank.

    Beyond their capability isn't it?

    Isn't their design speed supposed to be 140mph?

    yeah, the 162mph 91110 reached was a national speed record and it was on a downhill gradient

    The Class 91 Realy should be added. It’s basically an electric version of the class 43.
    Maybe they will add it on as a loco pack (Like the class 700 pack).
    But I will vote yes

    Maybe one of the loco packs is the intercity 225

    Doesn't need to be a dedicated loco DLC. Could also be part of a route DLC.

    Would be a shame to have the ECMl (it's home route) without it.

    yeah, its a bit criminal that DTG finally gave us the ECML but don't include an ECML Icon. This could have been fine alongside the 801. In terms of ECML Icons, we do have 60103 coming to TSW as well but that is exclusive to Deluxe and Special editions which is also is a bit silly IMHO
