    Now I do understand that there is a Eurostar Reskin available for the DB ICE 407, but its not a proper class 374, it doesn't even have TVM430 installed. So we can all agree that its not a Class 374, While on the other hand, I think we all would prefer a Class 373. I understand that licensing may be an issue, but if that's the case, release it in GNER and let the community reskin it into Eurostar like they did with the class 390. I also know that we don't exactly have a proper route for the Eurostars but we do have London to Faversham High Speed and plus the LGV routes in France. Anyway, about the Desiro City Fleet, the Class 700 has been in service for nearly 2 years now and the Class 707 has been in service for about 1 and 1/2 years, while the 717 is just entering service. Lets face it, a lot of people want the Desiro City Fleet so why cant we get it? If its another licensing issue then release it without any logos and let the community add it by reskining it! And the Aventras, well you know what im going to say... please dovetail :(

    If you had a Class 374 with TVM430 you have only got a very short route, London to Ebbsfleet to run the train - 20 mins and run over.

    The Class 373 is being made by Atlantic High Speed - work was progressing before Christmas but not heard anything since.
    Facebook is where they post info.

    I'm not Voting because you are asking for one vote for 7 different types of train
    People might want some but not all.

    There is a Desiro City Pack on ATS, but it is not that great, though someone at ATS is apparently working on a revised one

    I've seen one model builder release a WIP photo of a Class 707, so there is one on the way. Hopefully it will bring a SE London or SW London Network add-on.
    I've seen photos of an Aventra as an early WIP but that was about two years ago. I agree, with Stadler Flirts coming to TS soon, it would be good to have a totally up-to-date GEML with 345s and 720s. There's an updated GEML WIP and an NSE era one on the horizon.

    Update: I have a solution for your Class 373 problem. A guy name AHS Railworks is currently developing the Ashford - Lille route that is hopefully getting released soon. Although, the stand-alone 373 will be coming out soon as the page is already up and is almost due for release.

    I'll put my vote in for new stock, especially the Aventras for things like North London Line.
