    Murchison 2 was a large route for Trainz featuring a mixture of narrow gauge logging and mining lines, and standard gauge main and branch lines. It was set in New Zealand using real map data but with a fictional track layout, during the steam/diesel transition era. It included a wide range of industries and features such as an operational rail ferry, river steamer, and even a helicopter route.

    It would be nice to see something similar in TSW. It wouldn't need to be a copy of Murchison, but the general idea of a fictional network in a real place, with a mixture of industries, operations, etc would be interesting.

    The most important aspects to include would be:
    - A network style route with multiple lines and different types (such as main lines, branch lines, narrow gauge lines)
    - Mixture of freight gameplay with various industries
    - Mixture of steam and diesel traction
    - Scenic landscapes
    - Some unique kind of transport such as a rail ferry or helicopter (it would probably be on a fixed path, not flyable)
