    (NEW) BR Class 333 EMU (NT)

    The Class 333 makes its first appearance in TSW with this route, built between 2000 and 2003 by CAF and were recently refurbished in 2018 and 2020, These EMUs are unique in that they have this unique cab front, hence the nickname "Fishbowl"

    (Reused) BR Class 158 (NT)

    The Class 158 makes a return in this route this time in the northern livery, doing the semi fast Settle and Carlisle services on the route.


    WHY THIS ROUTE? (LAMP)

    Licencing:

    The Northern Licence returns for this route, and adds much loved and unique traction to the game with the use of the Class 333.

    Anticipation:

    The addition of Leeds, a lengthy and varied network route and the Class 333 makes this a much anticipated route.

    Mix:

    This route features a wide mix of services, due to the network nature of the route. Operate stopping commuter services with the class 333 or operate express services between Leeds and Skipton with the Class 158


    Prominence:

    The route features and runs through the suburbs and estates of Leeds, and showcases the dense countryside scenery of West Yorkshire.
