    This route would be a great addition to TSW 2. It's a route that connects the 2 giant cities in Scotland which is Glasgow and Edinburgh. This route has 9 stations, is heavy rail, owned by network rail and used by scotrail. The route starts from Glasgow Queen Street, and stops at Bishopbriggs, Lenzie, Croy, Falkirk High, Polmont, Linlinghow, Haymarket And ends at Edinburgh Waverley, or the opposite. There are services that do not stop at all stations. If this route took place today, it would use the class 385, which is a new rolling stock [​IMG] Unfortunately, that is the only rolling stock that is running today, but I think it would make a great addition to TSW 2

    Great suggestion. Do you know how long/complicated the route is as that's what makes the route doable or not. :)

    Depending on era the most complex area would be Edinburgh Waverley and the approach through Haymarket. If set n the classic era Eastfield Depot and Cowlairs would need to be included at the Glasgow end, but Queen Street has always been a compact station.
