    Would include:
    Class 350 (London Northwestern/WMR)
    350370-350116-14-07-22-2_orig.jpg
    Class 390 (Avanti)
    45004.jpg
    Stations:
    Rugby
    Coventry
    Canley
    Tile Hill
    Berkswell
    Hampton-in-Arden
    Birmingham International
    Marston Green
    Lea Hall
    Stechford
    Birmingham New Street
    Smethwick Rolfe Street
    Smethwick Galton Bridge
    Sandwell and Dudley
    Dudley Port
    Tipton
    Coseley
    Wolverhampton
    This route is around 50 miles. I think this is a good route as it would have plenty of variety with operators and made up of mostly semi-fast services to Birmingham New Street and Fast services to Birmingham New Street and Wolverhampton, with some services continuing to Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Blackpool North.
    Layers:
    Class 323 (BCC), at Birmingham New Street for services to Bromsgrove, Redditch and Litchfield and at Wolverhampton for Walsall as AI. You would be able to drive this train from Birmingham International to Birmingham New street.

    Avanti services on the route would call at Rugby, Coventry, Birmingham International, and Birmingham New Street, with some continuing onto Wolverhampton, calling at Sandwell and Dudley and Wolverhampton.
    Meanwhile, London Northwestern Railway would stop at Rugby, Coventry, Canley, Tile Hill, Berkswell, Hampton-in-Arden, Birmingham International, and Birmingham New Street. Some services start at Birmingham New Street, and go to Liverpool (this would only go as far as Wolverhampton), and calls at Smethwick Galton Bridge and Wolverhampton.
    West Midlands railway (which could layer in from BCC if the Devs don't want to use the 350 for that service again), begin services at Birmingham International, and call at Marston Green, Lea Hall, Stechford and Birmingham New Street.

    DLCs for the route:
    Avanti west coast class 805 (would be able to drive to either Wolverhampton or Birmingham New Street)

    Avanti west coast class 221 (would provide the same services as the 805)
