    Hello I’m suggesting the Glasgow subway for you guys today the Glasgow subway is the 3rd oldest subway in the world behind London and Budapest the Glasgow subway has a grand total of 15 stations let’s go through them!
    But first here is the map! 2D853459-119B-4AAD-AC8D-D2A5027C43E0.png The stations clockwise are
    Patrick
    Kelvinhall
    Hillhead
    (RIVER KELVIN)
    Kelvinbridge
    St George’s cross
    Cowcaddens
    Buchanan street

    Bridge street
    West street
    Sheilds road
    kinning park
    Cessnock
    Ibrox

    ROLLING STOCK
    the Glasgow subway currently use are its 2nd gen 99C4EFEC-7F1A-485D-880C-4E20F8E8E65C.jpeg
    The stock was built by metro-cammel and used to be 2 cars long both motor cars but then middle cars were built to increase capacity the stock can run in
    MOTOR-TRAILER-MOTOR
    Or
    MOTOR-MOTOR-MOTOR

    SPEICAL LIVERIES
    There is currently 3 special livery’s these being
    Net zero green swoosh livery 1263B695-BA9B-40D7-8DC9-1F5AA10FA90B.jpeg COP26 livery DD63A731-BAAA-4295-A14B-5FCF5FC1A339.jpeg And 120 years livery 391A7B79-E1E4-4339-AAE1-A3B4315E1F7C.jpeg

    THE FUTURE
    The subway is investing 8 million pounds for new trains platform screen doors and overall better services
    The new trains will have open walkthrough coaches will be able to operate driverless and will be faster when these are introduced they will make the Glasgow subway fully automatic as they are already half automatic because of the use of ATP

    MY THOUGHTS
    The Glasgow subway would be a really good route to have in tsw3 and is very unique hopefully you can take this into account DTG but that’s all from me thanks for reading and I’ll see you next time! Goodbye! TSW Nathan meee

    I would love to see this. If it's the stock I'm thinking of, I once got stuck in that train for a while when it broke down. Brings back memories. I would love to see it. You've got my vote!

    I have very fond memories of the subway from the excitement it had in winter and just how cool of a system it is!

    I would like to drive the 2nd gen stock tbh. Especially if they included special liveries, aswell.

    You know what I think would be amusing? If they included the original cable-hauled version from 1896. I can almost hear the anti-ATO crowd spinning up to a frothing pitch, lol. "I'm not paying to sit here and be hauled around a circle!".

    I would love to have this in my TSW 3 collection and I think they should include the Victorian rolling stock as well as the newer one.
