A very quick forum search suggests at least these people... https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/more-trains-in-glasgow.41150/ https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/loco-addons-for-cathcart-circle.41119/ https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/class-380-for-cathcart-circle-line.36021/ https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/desiro-380-cathcart-circle.41351/ https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/class-380-desiro-for-cathcart-circle-line.43569/ https://forums.dovetailgames.com/th...rt-circle-called-the-glazgow-train-pack.42009
Class 318, 320 and 380 would provide much more variety to the route which seems a little lacking with only one class operating.
Even if they don't run along the entirety of the route, they would provide some AI services at Glasgow Central
Here's my mandatory case against loco DLCs for Cathcart. Cathcart comes with the loco that (in either 2014/2017 - the two dates thrown around as Cathcart's setting) the Class 314 is by far the predominant loco on the line. Second is probably the 318/380. The 320 - don't bother at all The 318's "main" route is the Argyle Line, which interchanges with the Circle at Glasgow and Newton, whilst the 380 is found often on North Berwick, Inverclyde, Ayrshire, Paisley Canal, Edinburgh - Glasgow via Carstairs and such services, interchanges at Glasgow Central. Whilst Cathcart needs a tad more variety at Glasgow, 90+% of any DLC would be layers - provided the timetable remains realistic. That's just half of the case against it. Secondly, let's take a step back from Cathcart for a second. It's no news that Scottish routes are still something in demand, and, this has an opportunity. Germany, in-game, has a substitution/layer system across most routes. The UK has a limited version in Railtours and Freight - with BML being a standout, with many layers of all types, including diverts and passenger services. Scotland/ScotRail, provided it's potential and demand is tapped into, could take the German model. With the Electrified routes around Glasgow and Edinburgh layering, with the Diesel lines adding on as well. As I said previously, I think the 318/320 (2/3 of the requested for GCC) are far better on an Argyle Line route, and the 380 on Ayrshire or Inverclyde (with the 314 alongside). The 385 just won't work. ---- And to awnser the second part of the question. Yes- we need more Scotland - Native Scot
