    In this suggestion, I am suggesting the WCML Scotland part from Carlisle to Glasgow Central & Edinburgh Waverley with the Shotts Line included too set in the Avanti West Coast time period.

    Included operators should be Avanti West Coast and ScotRail (returning for the third time).

    Cambuslang
    Newton (AI only?)
    Uddingston

    Shieldmuir
    Wishaw
    Carluke
    Lanark (branches off from Carluke)

    Edinburgh Branch:
    Edinburgh Waverley
    Haymarket
    Slateford
    Kingsknowe
    Wester Hailes
    Curriehill
    Kirknewton

    Livingston South
    West Calder
    Addiewell
    Breich
    Fauldhouse
    Shotts
    Hartwood
    Cleland
    Carfin

    Carstairs

    Rolling Stock:

    Included stock:
    Class 390 AWC
    Class 318 SCR
    Class 320 SCR
    Class 385 SCR
    All stock will feature AP sounds.

    Layers (requires other DLCs)

    Class 66 + FKA Wagons (GWE)
    Class 66 + JNA / MFA Wagons (SEHS)
    Railtour (TBC)

    Potential Loco DLC
    Class 397 TPE
    Class 88 DRS
    Class 92 + Mark 5 CDN

    What's your take on this route?

    I've got fond memories of the WCML North add-on for TSC, running from Glasgow to Carlisle. Especially if it's set in the era with Intercity Swallow liveries. Would love to see that.

    I would love to see the class 88 as one of the main trains. Either that or the TPE Class 397.
    It would be great to also see the scotrail class 380 added instead of the class 385, this route would be perfect for it.

    The 380 is best suited for something like the Glasgow to Ayr route but the 380 could sub the rolling stock I chose for this suggestion. The Glasgow to Edinburgh via Shotts primarily uses 385/0s while the Lanark service uses 318s and 320s primarily from what I know. Besides the 385 for this suggestion would be having a major sound update with audio from the AP IET soundest with the doors and horn sounds remaining.

    Excellent idea overall and if I were you make it as the following
    Standard Trains
    390 Avanti West Coast
    318 & 320 Scotrail
    Class 92 locomotive for Caledonian Sleeper trains and freight
    Layered in
    Class 385/0 385/1 from Glasgow Queen Street to Edinburgh Waverly via Falkirk High
    Possibly 314 GCC
    Huddersfield Line NTP or Derwent Valley Line 1963 Railtours
    SEHS RHTT DLC Class 66 with working panel
    DLC
    Class 88 90 Mail Train 325
    397
    Retro Class 370 APT Class 86 & 87 locomotives

    Good suggestion, a good and interesting route, also includes the class 390 that can fill in a lot of those empty stations as AI.

    I chose the 385 as an included train because of the Shotts Line which primarily uses them. And the Class 92 Caledonian Sleeper is best as a loco dlc because of other WCML potential routes.

    OK then and are you saying remake the class 385 so that we can compare DTG version with Rivet Version? Best example of this is the Tees Valley Line Class 37/5 DTG made over the Rivet Games Cornish Main Line 37/5
