    About
    The Eastern Suburbs & Illawarra Line (numbered T4, coloured azure blue) is a commuter railway line in the eastern and southern suburbs of Sydney and is a part of the Sydney Trains network. The line was constructed in the 1880s to Wollongong to take advantage of agricultural and mining potentials in the Illawarra area. In March 1926, it became the first railway in New South Wales to run electric train services.

    Excellent idea overall you are missing another train set the NSW V Set EMU as standard
    DLC
    NSW A B & D set because you have NSW Long Distance EMU trains running direct to Port Kembala/Kiama on this route

    V-sets haven't run on the South Coast intercity line for more than 10 years now, same with the S-set (on the T4), and the D-sets still aren't in operation yet. A/B-sets don't run on T4 at all either, so they'd only be AI/non-player services on the shared track segments coming out of Central. Unless the OP nails down what time period they want this route set in, most if not all of those proposed DLCs are irrelevant

    EDIT: Just saw that the OP said 2012 in the title, which would mean the last of the S-sets servicing T4 would still have been active (the V-sets were withdrawn from the South Coast services at the start of that year though). B-sets didn't exist then either, so you'd only have AI A-set services on the Main Suburban trunk out of Central)

    Thanks for the information about 2012 patterns on the Eastern Suburbs/South Coast lines
