    Introduction

    Hello my suggestion for today is for a route on the London underground from Battersea Park and Edgware I think this would be a fantastic addition because of dovetails excellent relationship with TfL and also because it introduces a new route with a new train, new stations and different scenery.

    Rolling Stock
    1995 stock

    The London Underground 1995 Stock is a type of rolling stock used on the Northern line of the London Underground. A total of 106 six-car trains were built, entering service between June 1998 and April 2001,[2] replacing the 1959 Stock, 1962 Stock and 1972 Stock. They are very similar to the 1996 Stock used on the Jubilee line. These trains are automatic but can be driven manually and don't see that being a problem stopping this from being in the game.

    Train information

    Formation:
    6 cars per train

    Constructed:
    1996–2000

    Capacity:
    662 (248 seats)

    Manufacturer:
    Alstom

    Maximum speed:
    62 mph

    Entered service:
    12th June 1998

    Route information

    -Battersea Power station

    -Nine Elms
    -Kennington
    -Waterloo
    -Embankment
    -Charing Cross
    -Lecister Square
    -Tottenham Court Road
    -Goodge Street
    -Warren Street
    -Euston
    - Mornington Cresent
    -Camden Town
    -Chalk Farm
    -Belsize Park
    -Hampstead
    -Golders Green
    -Brent Cross
    -Hendon Central
    -Colindale
    -Burnt Oak
    -Edgware

    Route length: 14 miles
    Route time: 50 minutes

    Conclusion
    This would be great to see in the game with a new train and a new route with new stations and new scenery
    And if possible dtg you could put a 1962 stock tube train to have a mix of new and old trains.and would like to thank josh for recommending me to do a suggestion for Northern line.

    Thanks for reading

    Excellent suggestion! Would love to see the Morden & High Barnet/Mill Hill East branches included too and this route set in the right era would have a lovely mix of traction

    I would love the Northern line. I would love the Charing Cross and Bank branch and I would not mind whether we would get Edgware or High Barnet. I know that people would rather have the Edgware branch as it offers more scenery but I would not mind. Obviously it would be best to have the entire line with all branches but I would assume that it would be unlikely as they focus on foreign routes. I will continue to support your posts

    And here is to the bright future of TfL routes being added to tsw because the new suffergate line being added is just the start

    How about the whole Northern line? The section you suggested is only 14 miles they can do much more.

    The whole northern line would be incredible. We would need it for the increased frequency aswell.
