Now I'm interested!!

ECML York to Peterborough (1970s/early 80s), the East Lincolnshire Line (early 50s) and the SWML Exeter to Plymouth and Paignton (1970s/early to...

225 miles with four pieces of rolling stock seems very unlikely. The best ways to see TPE in game is ECML York to Newcastle or WCML Carlisle to...

Northern Trans-Pennine is for sure the route I enjoy the most. Absolutely brilliant route.

It does seem like an incredibly strange decision. This is going to be sale buy (if at all) for me unless we get the extension to Derby (I promise...

Very much so. As I have said these were more common than the Jubilees in '63.

I don't think the meridians tilt, no.

Route: Scotrail Express Unit: BR Class 385 [ATTACH]

Route: South Eastern High Speed Unit: BR Class 395 [ATTACH]

It is rather astonishing some of the things they come up with! I think the stupidest one I've come across was someone knocking on my door claiming...

Brilliant news, looking forward to this one even more now! Couldn't agree more, any route with a Valenta would be a definitive buy no matter...

Same here, it is a unit which will hopefully have good usage in the future as well on other routes.

Any section of the ECML in the 70s would be perfect. I would obviously prefer it to have my home stretch from Peterborough to Grantham (York) but...

Good to know that the 158s being done well and does make me more confident about this release. I know this thread is on the 158 and I think it...

Passionate? Hard-working? Committed? Matt is a good lad and, if you look, spent time on his Saturday evening at 11 O'Clock to type out that reply...

100%. Any of these would be perfect in game but especially to Skeggie as that line just has a very relaxed slower pace of life feel to it and it...

Yes I know, I never said they needed to be bright (though I will admit my wording wasn't great) but the headlights act as that 'little torch' at...

Very much agree: the East has seen nothing which is barmy when you consider the lines here. Also I think the next SR route needs to be backdated...

They also need to light up lineside signs and the sorts as well so we can see them at night.

When I saw the give back to community bit I thought ah ok this may be alright. But then it was my idea of hell being suggested: more Electrostars...

Good suggestion mate and I would be genuinely surprised if this idea is floating around somewhere already.

For me they do light up the track immediately in front of the train but I wouldn't expect them to be too bright anyway.

Very much, as I use the 156s now and then but as I've never really taken an interest in DMUs never realised they had the same engines as the 150/2s.

Decent price then. I have the Bachmann V2 which is an absolute gem to run. I don't blame you mate: there's nothing better than a good old impulse...

Yes hopefully Skyhook will be able to deliver on the timetable as this does seem like a golden opportunity to make a very close to full timetable...

At least there are going to be two different pieces of rolling stock though.

Very nice mate. Is the A4 Bachmann?

If that worked mate there would be another BR blue route on the way!

Very much agree. I don't know the 150/2s very well but I do know that they don't sound like the tumble drier in the kitchen on a continuous loop!

What we don't know though is when the April roadmap is: for all we know it may have been pushed back to the end of April. ;);)

I reckon London St Pancras with both the above and below ground platforms to Bedford sounds reasonable enough.

I feel like they are gearing up for a MML south as all that will be needed will be the 222s as this and the HST from skyhook MML will be able to...

For the British locos it would be the Jubilees as the oldest and the 385s as the newest.

No issue mate.Yes I do.

I have WCL and it was a route done by Rivet Games not DTG so if DTG do it it should be fine. If the route just came with the 170s it would be fine...

The class 170 isn't a Sprinter.

Potentially but it's not like the rest of the line is empty though. When I said I got paid I meant I work on the trains of a company which run...

Very much agree.

I don't venture north of Newcastle often but it is astonishing how beautiful it is when I do.

York to Newcastle isn't a dull section as you have some very scenic parts as you get towards Newcastle and even closer to York the scenery is...

Tell me about it, I have to cover the stretch from Kings X to Peterborough more than once a day and I genuinely look forward to getting to...

My three would be: The ECML from Peterborough to York (obviously the beautiful Lincolnshire landscape would be the highlight!). The line from...

Very good suggestion mate and would be a gooden to see in game as it is like you say very scenic. The turbostars would also be lovely to see...

Before I start I thought I should just say that I am not ill! In real life railway terms I love the 80xs and these days genuinely rather having...

No problem it is a subject I need to know a lot about! To answer your question the bimodal capability is essentially what make the 800s 800s if...

I agree and this is why I wouldn't want to see this suggestion: I would rather the time went into a proper intercity route than commuter ones.

I see what you mean but I have driven a deltic before and it was bloomin brilliant. It would be 25 miles in heaven. The good thing about the ECML...

Only because they haven't given backdated routes a chance. We haven't see a BR Diesel route from DTG since TSW2020. Even so there are other...

I have got to agree that Northern Trans-Pennine (my favourite) , Tees Valley Line and South Eastern High Speed are all worth the money. I am not...

As has been said/shown above I don't think you'll be fitting a deltic engine under a 80x! Also I think this was said but just in case it wasn't...
