    I have already made an in depth suggestion for this route using the LAMP breakdown but if this route was to be added to TSW4, I would love a 2024 version of it.

    Route: Rugby to London Euston

    Length: 76 miles

    Stations on route: Rugby, Milton Keynes Central, Bletchley, Leighton Buzzard, Cheddington, Tring, Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead, Apsley, Kings Langley, Watford Junction, Bushey, Harrow and Wealdstone, Wembley Central, London Euston

    ROLLING STOCK:
    Class 730

    Class 350
    upload_2023-11-30_20-28-49.jpeg

    Class 805
    upload_2023-11-30_20-28-14.jpeg

    Class 390

    Services, LAMP breakdown, Mastery rewards etc is all on my previous in depth suggestion but the point of this is just to include the class 730 and 805.

    Definitely a route what would need 2 of these trains at least, missing a lot if it only included one.

    I would say to favour the 350 and 390.

    Great suggestion, I would include the Class 350 and Class 390 as standard and then include the Class 730 and Class 805 later down the line as either two separate DLCs or in a DLC bundle as all they would do is layer into the services worked by the Class 350 and Class 390 anyway (for the most part) :)

    Personally...

    I think the 350 are ugly trains, and so is anything with Avanti livery.

    I'd like to see WCML South with earlier stock:

    Class 312 EMU
    Class 87/90 with mk3 carriages

    Trainline isn’t accurate at all

    I didn't say it was accurate, just stating what I found.

    Yes, and then we can have AC Intermodal freight stuff too. It’s a no brainer for me.

    Good suggestion - I would like to see DTG include both 9 and 11 car 390 options and not do what they did with Thameslink by only having RLUs.

    Would definitely like this part of the route, but also need to be realistic and assume it will only include 1 new loco- the obvious choice would be a 390

    I would quite like this route as it would compliment the Bakerloo line.
