    Hello, I would like to suggest the Class 222 Meridian for Skyhook Games' new route Midland Mainline,
    It will give us all a break from the Rather Dreadful Glitches of the Class 43 and The Rather Enjoyable Class 158.
    It will be very nice (and also rare) If this DLC can by hard worked on and (Almost) bug free, Some info on this train can be found below:
    The British Rail Class 222 Meridian is a diesel-electric multiple-unit high-speed passenger train capable of 125 mph (200 km/h). Twenty-seven sets were built by Bombardier Transportation in Bruges, Belgium.

    The Class 222 is part of the Bombardier Voyager family, so it is very similar to the Class 220 Voyager and Class 221 Super Voyager trains used by CrossCountry and Avanti West Coast. In comparison, the Class 222s have a different interior and also have more components fitted under the floors to free up space within the body. Built for Midland Mainline and Hull Trains, today all are operated by East Midlands Trains and branded Meridians.

    All are equipped with a Cummins QSK19 diesel engine of 559 kW (750 hp) at 1,800 rpm. This powers a generator, which supplies current to motors driving two axles per coach. Approximately 1,350 miles (2,170 km) can be travelled between each refuelling.

    Class 222 have rheostatic braking using the motors in reverse to generate electricity which is dissipated as heat through resistors situated on the roof of each coach; this saves on brake pad wear.

    In common with the Class 220s, B5000 lightweight bogies are used - these are easily recognisable since the entire outer surface of the wheel is visible, with inboard axle bearings.

    The Class 222 are fitted with Dellner couplers, as on Class 220 Voyager and Class 221 Super Voyager trains, though these units cannot work together in service because the Class 222 electrical connections are incompatible with the Class 220 and Class 221 trains.

    All Class 222 units are maintained at the dedicated Derby Etches Park depot, just south of Derby railway station.

    The train itself:[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Hope to hear more on this soon, Good(ish) route skyhook its very enjoyable in my opinion and the Class 222 Will make it much better. Goodluck and Well Done.
    Kind regards, Benjamin.

    Great suggestion though this should come with a small extension to allow the class be pushed to its limits.

    I'm pretty sure not everyone thinks that way of the HST.
