Which short(ish) routes would you like to see for MSTS?

The MSTS 1 Route Editor can be a beast to use, but it's capable of some amazing results, here you can talk with the wizards that are building some of the fantastic routes available and learn how to make your own.

Another one I'd like to see is the route from Bath Queen Square to Mangotsfield in the 1940's. Can't beat a bit of the Midland smack in the middle of the GWR.

Hi Everyone

I'm thinking of doing the Lymington Branch next after the Foxfield, again in 50's, and modern condition. What do you think?

Yep, nice little route Chris, go for it. Need to have a funky custom model for the pier though...:)

Hi Martin

I'll have to badger some modeller into doing the pier and a ferry for me :D

I'm doing the Bath to Mangotsfield midland line already it will be within my S&D 1964-65 Route, can't say when it going to be ready I've only got Bath to Weston & Bath to radstock but the route looks real pretty so far lot of models still to make. making radstock station now.

perhaps another route that would be nice to see is the camerton Line, where the film `Titfield Thunder Bolt' was made. Its only about 10 miles long and mostly rural with single track nearly all the way, so would be easy to do.

Cardiff Central-Rhymney. Never travelled on the line. But it would be a great little route to blast those Class 37's along!

Hi

Change of Plan:

As 3DTS are doing the Lymington, my next release (same time as the Foxfield release perhaps) will be the Lyme Regis branch. I'm busy practising field techniques.
