    Based mainly around the Eastmidlands of Nottinghamshire a very well know area for coal mining + we have great country side & farmland & what better way to share that with our fellow train enthusiasts than to hope that Dove tail gaming gets to work on this fantastic project.


    More routes is always good,, I just really want someone to make the routes from my area Eastmidlands Nottinghamshire because of the beautiful scenery here & the great rail history in the area also we have a 5 track main line running through Chesterfield station & Double track running through Mansfield & shirebrook That then joins into the main coal line that goes past Welbeck Colliery junction & under peafield bridge it would be good to be able to understand how the trains run better in the local area with the vast amount of countryside & bridges from Victorian times .



    I spoke to a chappi a few years ago working for freightliner out side Welbeck colliery,,, He had came up from immingham ,, was going to Cottam power station then returning back to Welbeck Colliery then going back to immingham for the end of shift .



    Track Maintenance
    Tampers
    Rail grinders
    HST Measurement Train
    MPV Track cleaner
    Track replacement / repair

    Would be good if when say reach level 100 you can maintain the rail world..

    Network Rail movement & Ballast loading unloading ..

    Eastmidlands Trains

    Mansfield central Trains

    XCountry Trains

    Location & routes
    Cottam power station
    Welbeck colliery Operated from 1912

    Clipstone colliery Biggest head stocks in Europe at over 200 feet tall

    Thorsby colliery
    Cemex
    Buxton aggregate


    Robin Hood line
    Nottinghamshire
    Derbyshire
    Chesterfield
    ShireBrook Station / signal box
    Mansfield
    Woodhouse
    Warsop
    Warsop vale
    Meden vale
    Peafield bridge
    Lincoln

    Southampton Dock
    Toton yard
    Doncaster / Doncaster yard
    Barrow hill
    Fox low junction
    Tapton Junction
    Mansfield junction
    Welbeck colliery junction



    More freight & longer freight journeys & longer & shorter rakes of wagons ,, For example sometimes two trains will come into W.H Davis bringing just one item of unusual freight. Would be good to be able to load & unload & complete a whole job realistically

    I just thought it was would be a great edition to the game & if we can operate them & do some repairs bonus even if the repair is fictional at this stage but the tamper appears to be doing it’s job happy days,

    Yes. I agree. Even if the Tamping operations didn’t work, it still accounts for going to site and doing Driver Training. At Lewes there used to be a Tamper sometimes parked in that old Bay Platform next to platform 1, or the Wall siding next to Platform 5. They also sometimes do driver training down to Seaford and Eastbourne from Lewes Platform 1 and then return to Brighton to go back towards Three Bridges.

    Sounds interesting although I’m not familiar with that area,, I believe if memory serves correct Network rail has there own training line in there Derby depot & I pretty sure there’s a bigger one at Melton Mowbray


    There’s always Tampers at Chesterfield station as wall as track maintenance machinery seen some very cool vehicles there ,,, Godda be there at the right time to see the good stuff very late & very early

    Its a shame all the coal industry ended in 2015 with thorsby colliery closing the robin hood line with high marham track up to thorsby colliery would be good Screenshot_20200907-170742_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20200907-170724_Chrome.jpg

    Yeah it sure is a shame that all the Collierys closed ,, I definitely think our are would be a nice touch to the game with the open countryside & very little housing & the rivers & open fields as you head down towards Welbeck Colliery,,, And the Cliffs at Shirebrook that start at the signal box,,,

    Definitely a great are for passenger & freight services

    Robin Hood line isn’t closed it’s still a very active line,, What line is the one that splits off at shirebrook signal box to the right & joins at the cabins at Warsop vale & runs up past Welbeck Colliery junction under peafield bridge & up towards clipstone Colliery.

    Wish the freight jobs where longer there either small or there ain’t many of them & the freight don’t pass through other areas

    Wouldn’t it be better if all locations were joined & you could be able to see different passenger service on your journeys & know what area you was in

    Passenger services I feel there’s far too many of the same area route & there all the same with no variety or freight traffic & hardly any reds if any at all ,, wouldn’t it be better to see different trains at the bigger stations where some services terminate & If you’ve done one route you could simply just jump on a different train to next area..

    We need mod hub same as giants have for farming simulator 19 so people can make & share there fleet of trains & wagons,, Ideally this would be under the same category as tools where the senario creator is & livery editor but would have its own title & section,

    Each item can have its own section

    Hi Jack I found your information on the Robin Hood line route if you can add your information here that would be great so we can get as much information as possible in one place ..
    Class 56 load haul was running down to Welbeck Colliery before GBRF & Freightliner before GBRf Sometimes you would get a rare rail freight class 58 these were around the times the load haul was about a lot & then they suddenly vanished & EWS 66 was king of the line Freightliner was pretty quickly joined though..

    Twin Ews class 37 where regularly up & down the mainline under Pea field bridge.. on Pea field road Warsop


    Class 37 mainline was also regular
