    I would like to suggest 2 trains and what routes they would suit first the class 800 for gwe because it is requested a lot and it would be a really good to be on tsw2 suggestion 2 Class 390 if a west coast game comes out it would fit very well thanks for reading this

    The Class 80x as a replacement for the HST on most UK mainlines would need long routes to justify their existence, not much point creating 7 or 9 car trains to run them for 20 minutes on a fast line
    Same with the 390 pendos. You'd need a substantial chunk of track to do them justice

    Indeed most of the high speed runs in TSW whether UK or Germany are pretty pointless. Get up to 125 MPH, cruise for 10 minutes then you're shutting off power to come to a stand. SEHS worst of all as you will literally get up to 140 MPH for about 2 minutes.

    Germany, the BR101 is a great loco but again HRR has about 5km where you can run it fast. By contrast in TSC Hamburg to Hannover even doing a semi fast service there is plenty of scope for reasonably sustained fast running with the 101.
