The East Coast Mainline is an arterial high speed mainline that runs parallel to the A1 road located on the eastern side of england. It runs between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh with branches to Aberdeen , Inverness, Leeds, Bradford, Hull, Skipton, Lincoln, Glasgow and Harrogate. Spanning about 393 miles, this is the second longest mainline in the uk. It has a maximum speed of 200km/hr (125mph) and is electrified with 25KV OHLE. Today i will be picking the section between peterborough and leeds. At about 100 miles, it is on the longer section when it comes to routes, but should be implantable due to a small amount of stations and loads of farmland around the area. STATIONs to be included Peterborough Grantham Newark North Gate Retford Doncaster Bentley Adwick South Elmsall Fitzwilliam Sandal and Agbrigg Wakefield Westgate Outwood and Leeds At about 10 stations and 100 miles this would make it accurate enough for train sim world 3. TRAINS TO BE USED LNER Class 800/801: The Class 800/801 is a type of high-speed electric multiple unit (EMU) trains designed and built by Hitachi for the British train operating company, London North Eastern Railway (LNER). These trains are part of the Intercity Express Programme (IEP) which was introduced by the UK government with the aim of modernizing and improving intercity rail services in the country. The Class 800/801 trains are equipped with advanced features, including high-speed capabilities, comfortable and spacious interiors, Wi-Fi connectivity, power outlets for passengers, and CCTV for security purposes. These trains are capable of reaching speeds of up to 140 mph (225 km/h) and offer fast and convenient travel for passengers traveling on LNER's intercity routes. Intercity 225, Class 91: The Class 91 is a high-speed electric locomotive used in the UK. It was built in 1989 and was used to pull passenger trains on the East Coast Main Line. It is capable of reaching speeds of 140 mph and has features such as a tilting mechanism and a streamlined design to improve performance. Although it has been a reliable part of the UK rail network for many years, it is gradually being phased out as more advanced trains are introduced.
