AI -710 at Barking -395 passing Rainham DEPOTS -SHOEBURYNESS sidings -WEST HAM sidings FEATURES If this comes to TSW4 I'd hope to see a fully functional TMS so we could also change the destination so it could be done manually unlike the 375 in SEHS CONCLUSION If this route came to TSW4 people would be pleased as it would link up with the Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside line thanks for reading my suggestion.
I would love this. We need some form of Ai traffic at Barking for the Suffragette line. I love the Suffragette line by the way
Seems like everybody who wants this route is starting their own thread, rather than support the most recent one! Ditto.
