    Brilliant suggestion! Just a note,
    There is also some sidings at Ayr that alot of the trains use as well as the depot.

    And Shields Depot from Cathcart Circle is right on this line cause between Cardonald and Glasgow Central the line joins up with that stretch of track on the cathcart circle.

    Really good suggestion!
    Also a class 156 could come as DLC or an extension for this route going to Kilmarnock or Girvan/Stranraer. It could come as just a train dlc though as it does operate between Troon and Ayr.

    Lots of good scenario potential here!
    Great suggestion!
    This is my local route and I'd love to see it replicated in the game! :)
    (Just note that the services don't take no more than an hour usually. Often less)
