Overview No doubt this has been mentioned before, but id love to see an extension to the GWR Express route. Journey times between Paddington and Bristol temple meads can take as little as 1hr 28 mins and within this provides more opportunities to integrate exciting rolling stock and variety in the route. Routes Apart of this, the introduction of Didcot, Swindon and Chippenham & Bath Spa to Bristol would provide so many unique opportunities. One of those being with a moderation to the LNER 800 unit to make users to switch to diesel at Swindon as so they run through to Temple Meads. Already in use class 66, 158, 387 & 166 all run these routes and could be operated so far in their commuter schedules to call at intermediate stations like between Paddington and Reading This would also of course include the famous Brunel Box tunnel which is 1.8miles long. Rolling Stock With the rollout of the LNER 800 route, the main design is there for the Hitachi units to modify them and develop the 802 series with altered interiors and liveries. 158 from the EMR route could be introduced 166s from the current GWR Express route are also used within these areas on the network. This is a very scenic route in person and if modelled correctly could be stunning! It may seem like a lot, but a majority of the stock exists for them to focus on the route linking yet another major hub station in Bristol along with already Manchester, Birmingham in the game etc
You've explained a brand new route, not extension since gwe is built in a diesel era so the electric trains wouldn't work if it was simply extended
