If it were unable to be licensed in the modern day, then as a 1990's era route with a NSE liveried Class 315 and 321 would be fun. We already have...
Does the Class 158 run regularly down to Paignton? The Riviera Line would be a fantastic route to have in TSW.
Which is probably why we need more routes where more full services can be completed, regardless of route length.
However I rather we didn't see development time that could be spent making several shorter routes put together to make one long route with...
It usually takes more than three months to build a DLC so they can't exactly announce new stuff more frequently than they can build it.
Give it more time. Obviously the big three countries will get the most content, but I suspect every now and then another French route will drop...
About half the fleet is still with SWR until the Class 701 fleet is fully up and running. Instead the Class 456 fleet is off-lease sooner.
Hopefully to compensate we'll get another shorter modern UK route announced soon like Cathcart Circle or East Coastway, something that shouldn't...
I would like to think any subsequent steam locomotives would take less time to develop now that DTG have built the tech for it. The route building...
To be fair, Rivet should have set the route in an era where potential layers would be more appropriate. DTG only added the NTP layers as a last...
Likely too big a project to produce in one go sadly. Maybe as far as Colchester but not all the way to Norwich. (There's also all the metro...
As long as the train types most associated with the route are included or provided as an expansion then it's generally fine. Where it's not...
Thanks, I didn't know that.
The GWR Class 165 fleet has quite a few differences compared to the Class 166; -No aircon which means every set of windows has an opening hopper...
It would likely require the addition of the Class 165, since there's not enough of the Class 166 to cover the full timetable. Any modern GWE...
Totally agree, even with its minor problems the 168/170/171 EP is massively better than the default equivalent.
If it cannot be set in modern times, then Norwich to Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft in the early 80's would be an interesting alternative; layers...
Abandon approach control on Bakerloo, given it's a base route where more novices are likely to play it, situations where the player ends up with...
North + West London Lines would be best, with a LO Class 378 and Freightliner Class 66 on container trains. Both of these could then layer onto...
DTG should instead add these FGW liveries to Creator's Club as free extra official content. The Night Sleeper would be good but would only add a...
Possibly, but the exterior sounds are spot on to me, just the cab view engine whine is a little off (and quite annoying to listen to!).
The pack is great apart from it having unopenable windows and the diesel sounds can be a bit irritable when under power for long periods of time...
I would pay for a route merge only if it were to include new track and services, such as this. The trouble extending to Hastings is that you're...
Even then it would require a total rebuild of the Class 313 to make it up to spec for LO operations for a short drive between Queen's Park and...
Ideally routes should be picked based partly on where other locos/vehicles can layer on without needing to duplicate them. This should exclude...
The Class 168/170/171 EP is quite good, lots of reskins too appropriate for many different routes.
Queen's Park to Elephant and Castle is alright (if you don't mind the tunnels that is) but north towards Harrow & Wealdstone the biggest problem...
You're better off doing the full route down to Dover Priory via Ashford Intl. It would be like SEHS only longer, even then it would be nearly 80...
Yeah total route length is now around 115 miles :mad: (better ditch this suggestion...) In fairness though, I did suggest this route primarily...
Thanks. I'll use that in the future then.
I would love to see this route also, but for some people it might appear too similar to Northern Trans-Pennine, particularly if set in the BR Blue...
I couldn't find an exact length anywhere so I resorted to a (bad) estimation using the scale on the map, which probably undercompensated for all...
Thanks. I'm not exactly sure what operated on the line in BR days, would some of the existing stock from e.g. NTP be appropriate for layers?
Description The West Wales Lines are a network of rural diesel routes located in the South West corner of Wales. Branching off from the South...
Thanks. Personally I prefer shorter routes with multiple lines than longer A to B style routes, as there's more variety like you say.
If this were ever made I'd like to see a Class 33/2 included as well, these being the narrow body version of the loco for use on this particular...
A Class 421/423 in BR Blue Grey with a Class 33 in BR Blue hauling Mk1/Mk2 coaches would work I guess, with layers for the Class 31 and Class 47....
I suggested something similar earlier in the week, though I would include a longer stretch of the GWML as including a Class 800 for a 10 minute...
Description This modern 3rd rail commuter route runs between the south coast cities of Southampton and Portsmouth, including the lines to Havant...
Ok so plenty of gronk action then, thanks again.
The Class 171 doesn't run to Brighton anymore (as far as I'm aware) so would only go as far as Eastbourne from Ashford, not being useful except as...
Again that likely wouldn't be possible as you're using two locos in place of one, even with compatible couplings/MU codes. I don't know how...
Could always throw in a Class 08 for good measure, although I believe most trains here don't require shunters (the loco itself runs around a fixed...
If a HST were able to substitute for a Class 800 in the layering system then I'm all for that. Even as a loco DLC the Class 800 would be a welcome...
Thanks. HAA, JUA and TEA wagons were the predominant type seen I guess. This route seems to be offering up more potential than I originally thought!
Bristol Westbury Swindon Network Description This modern diesel commuter route would cover the western segment of the Great Western Main Line...
Those short heavy freight trips to Scunthorpe sound like good fun, it would be great to be able to do 'complete' freight runs on a UK route in...
Same here. UK freight is somewhat underrepresented, especially with newer diesels like the Class 56, 58 and 60. Would love a Class 153 also!
Thanks anyway. It's somewhat difficult to judge the busyness of freight in the timetable when such information is hard to find.
It would be best featured as part of an Eastbourne to Ashford route, with the Class 171 and layers for the ECW 377 and SEHS 375/395, then merged...
