The 68s are alright but I still feel their sense of power isn't as great as the peaks or whistlers.
The highly speculative on this forum reckon the 30th could be the day however that is based on no official info.
Personally the best thing about NTP is it's era as it makes you feel the scale of the hills and has a better sense of power.
It is possible to keep on time. Maybe you need to adjust your driving style slightly.
A 25 and a 123/124 would be excellent!!
The pack wouldn't necessarily need all the trains to be of the same traction though. A better dlc for mml would be a meridian. GWE is set 2015 so...
Are any of these even in traffic yet? GWE is not the right era for them.
Brilliant suggestion mate. This is a lovely route and one I love taking in real life as it gives me a nice change from my usual high speed action....
Nice to see you with another suggestion mate! I think it would be a nice change from SE 3rd rail routes so could be interesting to have in game.
To be fair to my mrs everything about our lives is to do with the railway: our house backs on to the ECML, I've worked on the railway for longer...
Fair dos.
Really this would need to be ECML London-Peterborough and add the GN services in.
Not really a suggestion I can back in any way. Would be an incredibly dull dlc no matter the era.
Only if that's what the wife did after my latest purchases at the start of the month. Instead I had a broom thrown at me and given a list of jobs...
This past week I have been playing a mixture of West Cornwall, NTP, Brum and Edinburgh-Glasgow without any issues on the s series well apart from...
Where have you seen this mate?
Wholeheartedly agree mate. The MUs don't give me the same sense of enjoyment or power as the locos do. Ideally I would like to see a 70s BR blue...
Very good suggestion mate. I made a suggestion for the route in my preferred era of the 80s but the route would still be a gooden even if done...
Who says it's a minority? I most definitely would like to see some longer routes as I find the short and slow stop start stuff incredibly dull.
Good suggestion mate, especially with the push pull sets which became icons of the line. We need a route in the east.
Mmm yes good idea the prices are a bit barmy for these sorts of things. It's quite a nice line and a shame it's a good 4 hour drive from where I...
Ha don't worry. I've already seen that and managed to convince the wife that we should go to Swanage for the weekend. Obviously when we go there...
If there has to be another scottish route I think it has got to be backdated after two modern ones.
There's got to be a peak rail tour for the MML as they are synonymous with it.
Route: Great Western Express Loco: BR Class 45 [ATTACH]
Route: West Cornwall Local Locos: BR Class 45 and BR Class 08 [ATTACH]
I have got to be totally honest and fair here and although I don't want to see more one unit modern commuter routes BCC is a very good route and...
Now you say it that does sound good as we would also be able to give the 45s a good run with their cross country services on that section too!
Sorry I hadn't seen it when I started typing that out so I've now gone and typed pretty much the same thing out on there!!
As I said it is a brilliant suggestion and has good potential as a TSW intercity route. Also as I said, if having it modern, it would probably be...
2019 would be perfect if you want it modern though personally I would go late 70s/early 80s to have Deltics and Valentas. In 2019 Azumas were...
It's like I'm a mind reader!! I very much look forward to it as it's my home stretch of the line.
That would be due to the route using continuous welded rail which is used in real life so apart from points you won't get the 'clickety, clack' sound.
I think that ECML Peterborough to York would be a good fit for an intercity route (modern or backdated) as although it is 112 miles there are only...
A lot of miles, a lot of stations, a lot of stock so a small chance of being made. However if it were to be made I would prefer it to backdated a...
Oh that's interesting, I wonder what's going on there then.
That's strange I've had no issues with it and have done a few runs in each direction since the update.
Nottingham to Rugby would avoid the woodhead and still be a good 50miles or so.
Being from Lincolnshire I've always been an LNER/ER 'fan' so would love to see these locos in game (especially the V2s!) and from what I have been...
Route: West Somerset Railway Locos: BR Class 43 and BR Class 66 [ATTACH]
I can see where the point is coming from because everyone is in a different situation with the cost of living crisis but it must still be...
Oh yes should have made that slightly clearer really and we would need the the headcode boxes added as well.
The Peak is the BR class 45 which was previously included in NTP.
I too would be more than happy to pay for a diesel loco pack to release along side the route but unless this happens or by some miracle they do...
Well that's a debate for another day! Personally my preference is blue with the centre headcode box though! ;)
Midland mainline got my vote as it's a route I have used a few times in real life and I look forward to getting back in a HST with a VP185: never...
The thing which grates me with AI timetables is that you end up having to arrive or depart at random seconds within the minute whereas in really...
Honestly though as I have said give the Peak a headcode box and I would be fine to ignore things like that which although not ideal is much better...
I must agree with you here Vern mate it does seem that it could be quite a disappointing route really. I know I've said it already but I genuinely...
It would be very disappointing not to have the green diesels on the route in 63: they weren't a rare occurrence.
