Route Description =
An MSTS Route on two CDs coming complete with a number of activities and the relevant stock to run those activities.
“This route is the EuropeanBahn version of the former LMS mainline from London’s Euston station to Birmingham New Street. It is set in the late 1990’s to current era utilising mostly Inter City liveried trains (more recent operator liveries have been uploaded to UKTS).

The route comes with the necessary rolling stock to operate the 10 included activities. If you are ever after more activities for this route UKTS is always a great source.

To extend this route EuropeanBahn released an add-on called “Cross City” running from Redditch to Lichfield via Birmingham New Street. This add-on includes more rolling stock and activities as well as route miles to the existing route.

A special rolling stock pack was created for this route (as well as for use on other routes) called the Mainline stock and Activities collection.”
