    A route suggestion i have is the West Anglia Mainline from London liverpool street via stratford and hackney downs to Stansted Airport and Cambridge North. The route would feature 28 stations and be set in the time prior to aventras and flirts taking over.


    As standard the trains the route would come with are:

    • Class 379 electrostar emu
    • Class 317 emu

    Possible layers:

    • Class 66 for freight services
    • Railtours

    The route would have 28 stations, here they are in order from South to North.


    London Liverpool Street

    Stratford - Lea Bridge / Hackney Downs

    Tottenham Hale

    Northumberland Park

    Meridian Water

    Ponders End

    Brimsdown

    Enfield Lock

    Waltham Cross

    Cheshunt

    Broxbourne

    Roydon

    Harlow Town

    Harlow Mill

    Sawbridgeworth

    Bishops Stortford

    Stansted Mountfitchet - Stansted Airport

    Elsenham

    Newport (Essex)

    Audley End

    Great Chesterford

    Whittlesford Parkway

    Shelford

    Cambridge

    Cambridge North


    The class 379 electrostar would be used for Stansted Airport services as how it was before the replacement by class 745s, and Class 317 emus would run services as far as Broxbourne on Hertford East services (more on that later) Bishops Stortford and Cambridge North. They would also operate shuttle services between Stratford and Meridian Water.


    A possible future route extension would be The Hertford East branch which has just 4 stations and is 5 miles long. It could be added as standard however i think it would be a good choice for DLC.


    The Branch line calls at:


    Hertford East

    Ware

    St Margarets

    Rye House

    Then joins the WAML at Broxbourne.


    Overall i think it would be a great route to drive especially with the stock that would come with the route and i think it would be extremely popular.
