    I would like it if DTG does more diversion freight as either AI Layer or playable and more RHTT Services on the Carthcart Line if possible

    Good idea! Underrated and underused map with lots of missing potential. 1 freight service dosen't really do justice when compared to other routes.

    The Cathcart Timetable is quite prototypical, especially on the Central section, only lacking at peak times.
    So to add diversion freight would be fairly disruptive, I would imagine. Especially on the central section around the circle.
    Also, there's no end point for them. Freight rarely (extremely rarely, at that) goes to Glasgow Central and it's not entirely common on the WCML section between Newton and Rutherglen, aiming towards the Argyle Line.

    It would be good, if just for the sake of populating the route, to have a few occasional AI services at Newton on the WCML Tracks, and on the Freight-only line that crosses the Cathcart Circle and WCML just south of the River Clyde at Glasgow Central.
