    Would like TVL to be extended the 12 extra miles to Bishops Auckland
    NTP to be extended to Manchester Airport via Piccadilly & Oxford road and to York via leeds 85 miles total instead of 43 miles also they could add class 150s 153s pacers and sprinters to the route and remove closed park an miles platting stations

    Yes for the Tees Valley one but the idea you have for NTP is quite frankly awful.

    For NTP I would like to see an extension to both Liverpool and york and have it include at least a class 25 but another 1st gen dmu would be nice too. The sprinters you say to include didn't exist when the route is set.

    A resounding yes to the first one, plus the Boulby branch.

    Liverpool would make sense for NTP but you would need a class 104 or even better a class 108 as there were no class 101's at the Manchester depots in 1983. Any seen in the area would have come from Chester or Leeds.

    The station at Manchester Airport didn't open until 1993, well after the period in which NTP is set.

    The first one makes sense second one will not because you are trying to do it in era 6 1991-2010 Huddersfield line is set in 1983 era 5. What you can do is an era 5 extension to York via Church Fenton from Leeds City. If you are looking for a Pacer train to fit the Class 141 belongs to NTP Huddersfield to Leeds runs 1983.

    Boulby and Bishop Auckland for TVL definitely.

    NTP a bit harder. As noted Manchester Airport Station did not exist at that time period. York or maybe Liverpool are the logical choice albeit not the most scenic stretches of railway. What would be nice is Leeds through to Scarborough but with DTG currently thinking micro routes, unlikely to happen.

    Would love to see it extended to Scarborough, it would be nice to be able to finish off some of the loco hauled services.

    This isn’t how TSW works. The routes do not change with changes to the real life route or with the whims of players. It was set when these stations were still there and that’s how it shall remain.
