JT have just released london marylebone to birmingham snow hill

[DanBob210]

So I saw, looks like their best route yet to me, although £25 is too steep for any route to me personally. However, I await a sale, as sale in a few months, as the route looks beautiful. The downside for me is the overuse of the kuju 166s (reskins included), I mean at least their correct here (I'm looking at you SECML and Newcastle to Edinburgh), but their still dreadful. I guess at least I can swap them out for 170s, which are drivable.

Would love to hear a review from an owner, now off to Youtube to look for any videos on it yet :)

Having watched the JT video for the route, One thing I can't work out is where are they getting the S Stock for the underground from ?, Can't see it listed in the class 20 pack.

There are reskins for the 170 pack into various 168 subclasses and the Chiltern 172's which are most useful for this route.

i've got the route and its nicely made but the scenarios for it seems like it was an after thought to me with the couple i have played so far

[DanBob210]

The S stock is included with the route. To be honest skitz, JT's scenarios are always a bit 'interesting', they always seem a bit rushed and half-hearted to me.

The amount of times I've seen the 166 I'm surprised that AP haven't made a sound pack of it yet.

Yes, I've seen some of GamingRacerHD's video (who now has a mic!). Looks like a lovely route to me, alough not the smoothest running of them all! The detail in the stations is almost unrivalled though, stunning!

JT have a sale on now

As a new route it is not in the sale. There is very little in the sale anyway.

Dont bother with it unless you like driving through a tunnel of trees most of the route. I found it so boring I've uninstalled it. From b'ham snow-hill I suffered this greenout as far as Lemington Spa (just past it) then decided I'd had enough.

It's worth a try but I cant say I personally could drive a scenario on it more than once.

[LeadCatcher]

Well just watched a cab-ride from Birmingham Snow Hill and the route was pretty much flanked by trees - so sounds as if the developers pretty well matched real life from what I saw on the video

[zarker99]

I'd take an interesting fantasy route over a boring realistic one anyday.

To each their own -- not a fan of fantasy routes myself.
