This suggestion is for the Spirit of Steam route Crewe to Liverpool Lime Street set in 1958. The British Rail Class 40 is a type of diesel...
I will attempt during the coming days to create threads for each class listed above and provide photos and details of their unique merits.
I would always advocate for the types no longer to be seen as it provides the opportunity to witness long gone operations. Obviously it is...
[MEDIA]
shredder you are absolutely correct that the OP is actually suggesting a full rebuild as opposed to a remaster. However, I am always happy to...
This was where the Preservation Crew made complete sense. For the life of me, I cannot understand why they were discarded with so many worthy...
Today I would like to suggest a raft of types to better fill existing UK routes. Each and every one of these classes are notable in their absence...
Hopefully DTG have at least considered the possibilities available and have plans in order to save on future dev time and resources.
[ATTACH] Class 403 5BEL in original guise.
And the SUBs.
With the recent launch of this restored set for testing, I would like to suggest that the team get in touch with the owner/operator with a view to...
With Class 153s coming, perhaps it would be wise to do a East Midlands Trains variant to add capacity to Midland Mainline?
I totally agree that Derby would have been more than reasonable and cannot understand why it was not done. If it is due to performance issues,...
There are several types to choose from but as has been the case for a long time now, locomotive dlc have been few and far between which is a...
History suggests that you are correct but still worth a try.
This is impractical as well as outside the scope of a remaster.
DTG Alex can we expect the February Roadmap next week?
As a small upgrade to Isle of Wight 2022, I would like to suggest the addition of Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth so that it be visible from Ryde...
This is a obvious choice for a dlc. Amazed that it hasn't already happened. 2025 needs to be the year for a whole flurry of locomotive dlcs to...
My choices are... Thames Valley branches to Greenford, Brentford, Colnbrook, Windsor, Marlow and Henley on Thames North Downs Line Reading to...
The pair of 77s were most likely captured at Reddish depot, their home base.
As another side note, if we were to get the complete route with Tinsley Marshalling Yard included, it would be awesome to have the unique trio of...
Absolutely correct, the Class 360/2 was the TfL unit during the represented GWE era as nothing for Crossrail was finalised at that point. I am...
ECW should have gone to Ore, perhaps even Ashford as well as have the Wivelsfield branch line from the start. The very same can be said for GWE...
Having it just a year or two earlier would allow inclusion of Class 77 Co-Co locomotives for passenger services. This route would be somewhat...
This route deserves and requires the SEHS treatment in order to add the much needed track mileage. A rebuild might be better than a remaster but I...
Absolutely outstanding suggestion. I second this 100%. As a caveat, it must have Class 76, 77 and 506 motive power as a bare minimum. A small...
Most interesting. This would certainly make the South side platforms at Reading seem more alive. My only additional hope is that we see more...
Where did this information come from shredder as I must have missed it. Great news if true as parts of Reading look decidedly deserted at present.
Perhaps they could simultaneously do the Class 44 and 46 peaks for more variety and little extra work. So much development time and money could be...
117s were the staple unit for the Thames Valley area, 101s being few and far between. As I have said multiple times, there are several missed...
Grand Central are another operator to use the Class 180s on services along the ECML and should be included as a part of this pack. Liveries are...
With GWE about to receive the much needed remaster with a vastly enhanced timetable, perhaps it is the right time to do a locomotive dlc pack for...
Well OldVern, I personally think that this idea would work perfectly for a massive variety of branches both past and present. I am surprised that...
Yes to all of the suggestions here.
Waterloo and City line added to list.
Definitely need to add the Camp Hill Line once opened. If not done within a rebuild/remaster, then perhaps as a Branch Line Mini Pack as I have...
Definitely needs to be a better implemented feature.
This is long overdue on the HST as is a modelled buffet counter. This applies to both GWE and MML versions. I really hope DTG and Skyhook go back...
I think we all are at this point.
Absolutely. This is a perfect example of a self contained route that would likely not be made as a regular route release for being too short but...
Totally agree, there are many bits to work out to make any of these feel connected but surely achievable. I can see no reason why this cannot be...
Oh yes. Throw in the 2PEP and 4PEP (class 446 and 445 respectively) for the 1970s era. Mind you, this area has had some fantastic stock over the...
Added
My vote is for anything from London Waterloo but especially the suburban lines and branches to Chessington South, Hampton Court, Shepperton,...
For this new year I would like to see if it is possible to drum up a little support for these suggestions and see if we can edge closer to...
The timescale would be somewhat reduced if each developer had a go at a few. Some of these examples are more difficult than others as there are no...
These Desiros would require a South Western route before they can be created and added as AI.
A couple of minor updates added to the list.
58s were not to be found regularly around Teesside. They were used further south in the Midlands and south east.
Separate names with a comma.
