Tsw2 New Route Suggestions

Gatwick to Bognor Regis and Southampton to Bournemouth

Any thoughts?

 

More information please.
Which era and rolling stock?
Key points and stations en route?

 

That’s the west Coastway , so I think it would be better to make the WCW then link it to the BML and ecw

 

No it isn't, it the Arun Valley Line + Three Bridges - Gatwick and Ardunel - Bognor Regis (probably would include Littlehampton as well).

It's a different route

 

Depends which way you go from Gatwick from , continuing down the BML towards hove , or down the Arun valley

 

Chiltern Mainline London Marylebone to Birmingham, but I fear it would be too long and DTG don't do long routes in TSW 2.

 

If it went past Hove it would just be Brighton - Bognor Regis (a strange end point in that case). No point duplicating a large part of the BML.

 

Bognor Regis is actually on a branch off the wcw , so it wouldn’t be a strange end point

 

I know that, bit it's a strange place to cut the WCW off. It makes more sense to go to Portsmouth, no?

Or even better, Southampton with GWR involved.

 

It does make sense , but that depends on how difficult it is to develop

 

I was thinking the 80's using Intercity coaches etc!

 

So Intercity GatEx and NSE?
