    So this is something odd that i only found not long ago.
    How come we and the route itself can only spawn 387210 to 387227 but not 387201 to 387209 on London Commuter?
    Did DTG forget to add them into the route? Or is there another reason why 201-209 for some reason didnt make it into the game? Does anybody know why and is there some mod i can download to get those units?

    Random guess that in the time period of BML, those 387s weren't operated by Gatwick Express.

    I would assume these are the units which spent time with GWR and GN.

    BML is set in 2018.
    A quick google suggests 201 is a Great Northern unit.

    387201/2/3 were transferred to GWR on 20th July 2021, a week after 204/5/6. I posted a picture of one of them at Slough in the photos thread. I think they all went to Great Northern by the end of the year.
    207/8/9 went to Great Northern around the same time as the transfer to GWR, but I think they all went back to Gatwick Express after 201-6 went to Great Northern.

    Joethefish as the creator of the London Commuter timetable, is it possible for you to provide some insight into this as well?

    Yeah the timetable is from 2018 and basically should be making full use of the units they had at the time.

    Not my best photos but here is an example of them with Great Northern - note the operated by GX markings - at Peterborough in May 2022:
