    I'm not going to make this suggestion long or short; The new class 730's have recently entered service in the West Midlands and London where they operate on the Cross-City Line and WCML being operated by LNR. This new train has joined the growing Aventra family, and from myself.. I am a massive fan of all the Aventras. Now what I'm trying to actually suggest is adding the 730/0 into the already existing Birmingham Cross-City Line as a new loco DLC. The Class 730/0 is a 3 car-unit train that has a maximum of 90mph that opens the opportunity to withdraw the 323's from service in real life. With the new 730/0 being added to the BCCL will be the start of introducing Aventras in game. Here are some pictures of the 730/0.

    As you can see here, a beautiful interior, nice and good looking cab and a brand new train that will be a great addition to the game. In conclusion this would be a great addition as it literally runs the route the 323 does and it adds new fleet to the very very deserted BCCL which I think deserves more trains like this especially ones you can drive and not AI.

    Would this run alongside the existing 323?

    Big 385 vibes from this train. Would be very cool to see all the same.

    This is a good suggestion but because this train is so new I wouldn't expect it to come to TSW for a long time tbh

    Yeah I was thinking that but all we can do is hope for more rolling stock.

    First of all It's not a loco.

    Second of all why are we aiming for the trains which have just come out in service? Like where is the Class 350s? Class 450s? Class 378s? Why Class 710s, 720s and 730s.

    First off, I know it’s not a loco I just said it in the suggestion bc I’m categorising trains whether it be a locomotive or not and second why another Electrostar like the 378 and with the 350 and 450 they deserve their own route rather than adding onto an existing one, and I suggested this before knowing an Aventra was coming but I’m happy one is coming since they’re good. But I suggested the 730 since it literally runs on an entire route already in the game that needs more trains.

    As said already the 730 has replaced all 323 stock on WMR BCC line. The 323's, some have gone into storage, and others moved Up North.

    Why are under every class 730 thread repeating the same thing?

    To Regenerate interest, most posts are 10 months old concerning 730. Plus the Class 730 has entered service on WMR Cross City.
