Now we have the Class 700 RLU and we have East Midlands I think it would be great to get my Hometown of Bedford on the game Bedford to St Pancras international with the Class 700 FLU we have all the required Trains to make the route it is just building the route and going from there, I absolutely love the 700 it has got to be the best train out there on modern traction, maybe slot in a class 222 for East Midlands trains if possible, get a bit of proper midland mainline in there get some good speed out of the class 700, I remember as a kid being on the platform at St Pancras international lower level watching the thameslink coming through the tunnel and hearing that loud scritching sound it was great, would love to see midland mainline St Pancras to Bedford.
There is speculation MML could be the next big release for the summer or TSW4 but just that at present…
Great suggestion mate, having the VP 185 HST and 700 used again would be great. The 222 would be a great piece of new rolling stock.
We got the MML route just around 3 months ago so I doubt that we will see any Midland content for a while unless it's a 222.
The Bedford to London Blackfriars would provide another route to run the very popular EMT HST, an AC route for Thameslink which has 250% more services running on the MML south than on the ECML , this route has currently all the licenses, Locos ,or suitable substitute to make it feel complete. It comes down to amount of resources available, The distance of the route, amount of stations, amount of services that the route would provide, and how much time it would take to make the route. In my opinion it fits the criteria that they always mention to make a route. I guess we will find out soon enough. We might think is going to be A or B but they might come out with C.
