    So far I'm not really impressed with TSW5 the Mikton Keynes line is, I would imagine driving on the moon, no other trains running, very little road traffic and yet TSW2 there are numerous traffic running on lines

    I don't think any off the new routes are as busy as they should be

    I thought the lioness line around Watford to Euston had a decent amount of traffic not sure why there techically are only timetables activity rather than scenario or the logic one put Lioness and Suffroget line under the Grouping of London Overground , Similar if they bring over some of the other JT TSc reworked for TSW LU routes and with Bakerloo have it as London Underground.

    The Watford DC line is the worst offender for the timetable. Though I certainly think there are multiple LNW runs missing too.

    This route should of gone to Birmingham imo cutting it short at Milton Keynes was an odd choice if Just Trains can do Preston to Carlisle which is 90 miles long DTG could of easily had this go to Birmingham

    Milton Keynes did seem an odd choice to finish the route i agree Birmingham would have been better or if you want it longer maybe go up to crewe

    Thing is the Preston to Carlisle section is mostly countryside; London - Birmingham is mostly urban and suburban.

    Let's not forget they were building 3 different routes at once.

    The route length is one of the main issues for me. Just doesn't give the 390 enough miles to really stretch it's legs. Reminds me of GWE and the TGV's route , 5 games in and we still have these short routes with high speed trains on them.

    Preston-Carlisle will have 6 stations (7 with Morecambe), Euston-MK has 28.

    San Bernardino was never gonna be a super busy route, busier than Antalope but half the route is single running through the backs of peoples houses. And you’re forgetting we still don’t have every time of train that would be running in and out of Frankfurt, that traffic will be built up with the more trains we get.
