Why C2C Should Be Added to Train Sim World C2C would be a fantastic addition to Train Sim World because it offers a unique London commuter experience that isn’t currently represented enough in the game. The route from London Fenchurch Street to Shoeburyness has a great mix of environments. Players could experience the busy London terminal, urban areas through East London, industrial surroundings, coastal scenery around Southend, and the quieter sections towards Shoeburyness. It would give players a route that feels very different from many existing TSW lines. C2C would also bring some excellent rolling stock possibilities. The Class 357 Electrostar would be the obvious headline train, with its distinctive four-car design and C2C livery. The route could also feature realistic stopping and express services, allowing players to experience the different ways C2C operates. Another major reason is the variety of gameplay. Players could drive busy peak-time commuter services, stopping at stations such as West Ham, Barking, Upminster, Basildon, Southend Central and Shoeburyness. There could also be scenarios involving disrupted services, engineering work, rush-hour traffic and trains terminating at different stations. C2C would also appeal to railway fans because Fenchurch Street is a distinctive London terminus that would make an excellent starting point for a TSW route. Seeing the station recreated in detail, followed by the journey through East London and Essex, would make the experience feel authentic. Overall, C2C would add a different style of British railway operation to Train Sim World. With the Class 357, Fenchurch Street, the Essex countryside, Southend and the busy commuter timetable, it has everything needed to make a brilliant TSW route.
