I really wish DTG consider a GNER route one day, specifically because of the class 373. I know Eurostar seem to be unnecessarily stingy with their licenses, and apparently Thalys is close to the same with IZY, but apparently GNER doesn't exist anymore, which should help with licensing, and the White Rose is absolutely lovely, easily my favorite train of all time, tbh I'd rather they just add the TGV TMST as a standalone loco since Eurostar don't own the actual locomotive, but if trains must have a specific route I hope this becomes a thing one day, even in TS 2021 or beyond. Edit: probably should have put this in suggestions
I would love to see GNER in the game, however: That's not true. Someone still owns the copyright for the name, logo and brand (probably whoever owns Sea Containers), it's more a challenge of finding out who. The trouble is Sea Containers Ltd filed for bankruptcy in 2006 and ceased trading soon after. The company and copyright still exists.
So basically getting a license from them could be just as difficult? There go my hopes I guess. Also sry I'm American and have only gone across the pond once, so I don't have much knowledge on British regional rail, but that is good to know
Unfortunately that's the case - if anything it's more difficult since the owner of the copyright is not clear (from a skim read of the Wikipedia page). I do agree, though - I'd love to see GNER in this game, perhaps more than any other operator, past or present (Northern Spirit a close contender).
