    Hello. Modified route suggestion from my last one. A route dear to my own heart, one I've travelled many times in my childhood, the route that made me trainspotter freinds and got me into railways. The Hull-Doncaster line via Goole specifically (because I lived I Goole)
    I also believe that the Howden branch should be depicted to give those interested in semi HST running something.
    Era: 2016 Circo Abellio Northern ideally or if not Around 2018 Arriva Northern.

    Route details- around 60 miles of track depicted. Total running time is around the hour mark, Something TSW strives for, so that makes sense.

    Stations: 16, Doncaster, Kirk Sandall, Hatfield and Stainforth, Thorne North, Goole, Saltmarshe, Gilberdyke, Broomfleet, Brough, Ferriby, Hessle, Hull. (+ Selby, Wressle, Howden and Eastrington for the Selby branch)

    Trains:
    Class 158 Northern 220px-158842_Castleton_East_Junction.jpg
    Class 142 Pacer Northern 1002892.jpg
    Class 180 Hull trains

    DLC: Maybe 170 TPE?

    So Why this route? Aside from personal reasons I can just see this as a perfect TSW route. It offers the perfect run time and something for everyone. And the North East and Humberside need some love, I've been Crying out since TSW1 for it.
