Marston Vale? You might just be in luck and no it's not me doing ittheorganist wrote:Personally I am looking forward to it. I will be running NSE 117's on it.
I would also like to see the Bedford to Bletchley line added to the MML another hang out for first generation DMU's at the end of their life.

Yeah, just like those guys at TfL do their own thing..."Services are set to begin once again in February 2017, and with further evening and weekend works, the GOBLIN will be fully electrified by the end of the year, ready for a fleet of brand new 4-car Class 710 ‘Aventra’ EMUs to take over from the Class 172s in 2018."roballen555 wrote:How can it be "An extension" when this is a separate line,no OHL,no third rail,thats why the 172 ( Diesel ) runs the line,,at Gospel Oak there are buffers,end of the line,so this is an "Extra" bit of the Overground,,maybe they are putting the NLL and this together so it looks better,,its not an "Extension",you cant run the 378's on this route,Surrey Quays to Highbury and Islington would be an extension,and would have made more sense to extend the SLL,,but DTG do their own thing lol.
Sounds very interesting.bongoboy wrote:Marston Vale? You might just be in luck and no it's not me doing ittheorganist wrote:Personally I am looking forward to it. I will be running NSE 117's on it.

It doesn't directly create a link between the two. You'll have to reverse at Barking to go onto the Goblin.trevb wrote:Looking forward to this route.
Isn't there a link between the GEML and GOBLIN to the north of Woodgrange Park?
Yes, we have 68s, mk3s and DVTs, 170s as 168s, 165s and 220s for other traffic, just need to see if chucking a gangway child object on the front can work for an LM unit (I know it isn't that simple) - I too am hoping for kind mapping for a Chiltern colours scheme on the 172.skoda wrote:That 172 will look nice in Chiltern Railways livery (if the mapping supports it) and fill another gap in units to use on the Just Trains Marylebone to Snow Hill route . Just needs a LM class 172 to complete .

You're all to quick to do sums.....

Our route is based on the route pre-electrification but a certain staff member has advised us that he’ll be publishing the electrified version on Steam Workshop for everyone. Currently, there are no plans to do the Class 710 but that doesn’t mean we won’t look at them at a later date.
