    Not going to be much of a route on its own and even if added to the existing ECML (and bear in mind DTG rarely if ever extend existing routes) it’s just going to be more of the same with 25 minutes of relatively straight flat out fast running across flat terrain. To make any sense an ECML extension would have to go from Doncaster to Newcastle which is probably a bit too much to expect from a new/extended route.

    Agreed, and that is the missed opportunity on many routes by DTG...
