Have Pacers ever ran on the route?
I hope so!
I'm much more excited for the route now, although some will likely be disappointed. A HST is all but guaranteed now, and I'd be surprised if a...
Glad that there's light at the end of the tunnel for the 313. And Cathcart really has been coming along well by the sounds of it. Interesting...
Here's a summary of my thoughts on the routes: Brighton Mainline: While I'm certainly disappointed it's another Electrostar route in South East...
That's true. I'd like to say they'll be fixed for the route but I highly doubt it.
I know the 387s are newer and have some external differences, but will there be any other differences between them and the 377s? Do they have...
I am still looking forward to the route. In fact I've quite warmed to playing it. I just wish there was a little more variety, hopefully we'll see...
That's just suburban EMUs as well. I think I and some others want modern diesel traction as well.
I'm fairly certain Rivet's Penzance- Truro will be set in that period, according to the code it won't be any more recent than 1990.
My dream routes are: King's Cross to Peterborough with Class 91s, Azumas and 700s (HSTs would probably be re used although you specified no re...
If I remember correctly don't Gatwick Express also run some services through to Brighton? I'm assuming they only stop at Gatwick- how long do...
Well either with proper optimisation (something DTG are bad at) or they simply won't. I have Munich to Augsberg on PS4 and I still have fun with it.
I wouldn't describe it as really big. In terms of time it takes to traverse I'd say it's around on par with SEHS (around an hour). Although that's...
Could 455s be DLC? They're the only other train on the route I can think of apart from 700s. I know they stick to suburban London though so I'm...
That's true, I have seen it requested a number of times. I myself have often been driving the 377 on ECW and thought to myself "this is fun but...
I mean I'll definitely still play it and more than likely enjoy it, it's a great route after all... But man I wish there was more variety in this...
You'll have to excuse me, as I'm a bit out of the loop here, but it seems that Rush Hour has leaked and Victoria to Brighton will be one of the...
Surely 1955 would mean the vast majority of trains would be steam though? I can't see them doing anything before the mid 60s at least.
At this point I'm just desperate for some type of Sprinter to be in the game. I grew up with them and have very fond memories of them. I'm...
I had a dream last night that Class 155s in regional railways livery were included in the route, along with an upgraded version of the Peaks. I...
I'd still love it if DTG did an upgraded version of GWE with 800s and 387s. If they put up the wires on the line then it'd be good to go. Although...
Again, I really wouldn't want this to be the route 800s debut on honestly. It seems like a waste of potential. They're much better suited to...
You make a lot of good points, it's just that to me a lot of the modern routes like Bakerloo and IOW don't feel modern. There isn't anything there...
I think the point is that even though there are technically more modern routes, in a sense there aren't. Isle of Wight seems to be set a few...
Yeah that's a point. That's why (if it was modern) I'm not so keen on having a Class 802 on the route. Seems like a waste. You can't reach the...
You're probably right. It'd be a genuine immersion breaker for me but I doubt the average buyer will care that much.
If they did bring a HST over do you think they could get away with the MTU engine sounds? I doubt they'd go to the trouble of getting the sounds...
As it stands I'll probably get it day one anyway. At the end of the day it's still a route I'm familiar with and interested in, but it won't be a...
No, I mean that it's been multiple decades since they've run in service, whereas the 332s were only withdrawn last year. People aren't feeling...
Couldn't agree more.
I take issue with that. I grew up with 332s running into Paddington so personally I was quite sad to see them go. The difference between them and...
We have modern trains here! Honest!! I completely agree about the time period being needlessly vague. 50s to 90s is a very wide time period. It...
If there's gonna be a first generation DMU (which judging by the period there probably will be) then I'm 80% sure they'll just re use the 101....
I actually wouldn't mind it being set in the late 80s. Especially if we got a HST in intercity swallow livery and the 150s being presentes as...
Here are my hopes for the route in terms of trains (as you know I'm hoping it's set around present day) Class 150 DMU- An iconic DMU that would...
Ummm did you forget the bit to Truro?
It seems that some people will be upset with the period either way. It's just a matter of which option makes less people unhappy.
I'm praying this isn't another BR Blue era route, it's just not my speed. I don't want Modern British routes to all be in South East England.
The 101 is fun but two (technically three) routes is plenty imo. I still find it unbelieveable that the 101 is in that many routes while the...
Oooo definitely. I could imagine they'd able to spruce up the existing 47 for that.
I'm 90% sure the 166s stay in the Bristol area. They moved there so that 150s and 158s could move to Devon and Cornwall, so having 166s would be...
Oh... Well that's disappointing. I'll still probably play it but that kind of era isn't as much my thing. I was hoping we'd finally get a modern...
