Looks like it will go into my queue for regression to Steam days "Steaming over the Southern Pennines"

Great news - look forward both to the actual route and the possible backdated version!

Very interesting. I like the look of that.

Does it state which period this is set in at all, modern times, or, 1980-ish?????

The images above give the clue - modern I would think. Possibly the western part of the TransPennineRoute by Jim Nobbins and team (which included Tom Harrison). The Harrogate Loop was the eastern part, and that is modern

The Picture at Greenfield shows the station name board but with the Northern Logo removed so after the Franchise Change in 2016.

Easier to research as it's there today and a lot of the stock is available for use.

It looks great, but I've just bought DTG's 80s version so I don't think I'll be in a rush to get this.

I'd much rather like an old Healey Mills yard and MPD for my Class 40s, Peter, modern era takes away too many freight train possibilities for me personally.
Thanks for the info. anyway.

This route has nothing to do with me.
