    I think this line would be a nice edition to the English routes as this is the line that will have the Elizabeth line running down to shenfield. It normally takes 40mins from Liverpool st to shenfield and 1 hour to Southend Victoria. This trains and from 5-10 couches and there are 4 types of train on these lines, they are the class 315 , 321 , 345 and 720s. As this is my local line I would really like it if it was added to the game

    Go back to the 70’s and 80’s when you had class 302, 305, 308, 309 emu’s, class 31, 37 and 47 locos. Passenger, postal and news paper trains out of Liverpool Street as well as the empty coaching stock from Thornton’s Field, Ilford, Gidea Park and Shenfield. And that’s without the freight work from Temple Mills and Stratford Freightliner Terminal, then you’ve always got dmu’s for Woolwich to Camden, Romford to Upminster and lastly Wickford to Southminster.

    I’d prefer it to be a modern route to post tribute to the 321’s and 315’s

    This used to be my line and if DTG ever add it, I hope they make sure every train is at least 20 minutes late for the purposes of realism. I often used to get the bus to Southend Central and take the C2C rather than use it.
