This is not a dtg feature!!, merely a suggestion prompted by the Glossop scenario (yet?) Would you play a scored railfan mode?
I would also support a "bashing" mode similar to the Hellfire Rover* games but where you can actually travel on the trains, value the haulage thrash, mark off the loco/unit you have travelled on and the accrued mileage. * Railrover.co.uk Glossary of Bashers slang - railrover (miraheze.org) Freedom of Scotland - A Personal Account (railrover.co.uk)
I wonder if there is any mileage - realism in building your own trains from a job sheet, does that happen these days still?
