    I believe the Wherry Lines from Norwich to Great Yamouth and Lowestoft would be a great addition to the game. The route is fairly short but with the additional line to Lowestoft PLUS to be able to drive limited services calling at Berney Arms would be a perfect fit, allows for extra re-playability and more to do! I would include for passenger stock, The STADLER Class 755's of course! Modern day setting! Layers include AI EMT regional services to Liverpool Lime Street (Not quite modern day as it is not EMR but close enough) and maybe, just maybe; AI Greater Anglia Intercity services to London Liverpool St. AI services to Stansted Airport and more AI GA regional services too. I love this part of Britain's Railways and I would love it if this route was included in the game, thanks.

    I'd personally prefer this route set in between 2010 and 2019 with loco hauled push-pull trains with a DRS DBSO, and either, 47, 37 or 68 alongside a class 156 from greater anglia, the 755s aren't as interesting to me.

    You could also do with attaching images in your future threads just for some advice, images of motive power or interesting locations on your route choice

    There was a person working on the Wherry Lines in the PC editor who then stopped due to having the belief someone was working on them officially. That was a while ago now, though

    Or the 1970’s which would allow Class 105 Cravens DMU’s in addition to the 101’s. Summer Saturdays would see all sorts of motive power arriving on seasonal dated services and excursions to rival Blackpool branches.

    And any attempt at the Wherry Lines should also include the Sheringham branch which is fairly scenic for that part of the world and would round out the value and operational interest.
