    Preston to Leeds would be nice. Blackpool to York would be even better

    I have always wanted to see the Chilton mainline extended to Stourbridge or Kidderminster

    Shrewsbury via Kidderminster would be good.

    Shrewsbury via Kidderminster - obviously not off the Chiltern line

    Going back a few years now, but at one point Chiltern did operate as far as Wrexham I believe!

    Chiltern did not but there was Wrexham & Shropshire which ran 67s & Mk3s as an open access operator.

    My friends and I are working on this, albeit only the Ramsgate to Dover section at first.

    I don't know about "Lines to Cleethorpes", but a quite nice third-party freeware route exists that includes Cleethorpes, (link) North Lincolnshire (link). It's not set in "ultra-modern times", but rather during an era when both steam and post-steam can run. Here are a few captures of the Line from a recent QD that started in Cleethorpes.

    Assuming you are using ReShade, the settings you are using actually make the Kuju track look decent. Impressive.
