Hey DTG I was wondering if you can build 1 more UK route on the West Coast Main Line between Brighton, Littlehampton, Bognor Regis, Portsmouth Harbour & Southampton Central set back in the 1980's - 1990's era using trains class 421, 423 & 442, with the class 421's & 423's doing all stops service to/from each of the 5 terminals & 442's doing the express services to/from each of the 5 terminals, I would really like this line & the trains to be developed, so I can enjoy more UK trains & I'm hoping there will be other players like myself who want the this particular line & trains.
I would like to see the arun line included along with the class 700 that goes from horsham to Peterbrough and the rest of the thameslink route as well and maybe a different underground route to and please let's have the 375 into London Victoria and to ramsgate and dover
Just an FYI, The West Coast Mainline (WCML) runs from London Euston to Glasgow Central, the route you're suggesting is the West Coastway.
Well it takes 45 minutes to travel from Brighton to Littlehampton, 55 minutes to travel from Brighton to Bognor Regis, 1hour & 23 minutes to travel from Brighton to Portsmouth Harbour & 1 hour & 50 minutes to travel from Brighton to Southampton Central. It would be are decent route & are long route too which is what I'm thriving for.
Agreed, people complain that the west Coastway is too similar to the east Coastway and BML, but in truth there’s many differences. East Coastway is a more relaxed countryside route, BML is constant hustle and bustle but the West Coastway is a journey constantly through urban areas but you aren’t constantly doing something
Agreed & with the West Coastway set back in the 1980's to 1990's era with class 421, 423 & 442 the route will come alive, I guarantee DTG will get are lot of players & buyers, that's only if they build the entire route.
Indeed, not to forget the WCW is also interesting thanks to the previous GWR services which could be included in the timetable, and not forgetting the peak-time Class 700 services from Thameslink to Littlehampton too. Finally, as a big fan of the 313, it would be nice to see it elsewhere other than ECW in TSW - especially considering they're now retired in reality.
