"I'm not A doctor, i am THE doctor! The definite article you might say!" Just posting my favorite quote on Classic Who!

I don't know how many are... The existing tunnels go in a one-way loop so i guess it could be hard for trains to go those way's. Still, it would have been present after the new tunnel was in service.

Queens Street is a street next to Earlestown Station.

Sorry, Just answering your questions: Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am from Merseyside! No, sorry, I have no stats. Also, I'm probably going to make a Liverpool - Brighton/Penzance route!

This post will be updated regularly. This post is from a few other posts from other threads that has been put into one thread, which makes this post. THIS IS NOT A SPAM! New services, lines, and TOC's (except existing ones) listed in this thread are ENTIRELY FICTIONAL. Any info that is entirely...

NOTE: This post has already been posted on a similar thread. THIS IS NOT A SPAM! My ideas: Part 2 Okay, Let's start with the new stations/lines: Liverpool Central Line: Connect's Liverpool Lime Street with James Street Station using a 1.3 km tunnel. The line is Privately owned by Liverpool...

My ideas: Part 2 Okay, Let's start with the new stations/lines: Liverpool Central Line: Connect's Liverpool Lime Street with James Street Station using a 1.3 km tunnel. The line is Privately owned by Liverpool Tōzai Rapid Railway Business (strange name but that's all I could think of), which...

Not to mention that the class 185s have already served that line. Also, the class 158s on the Liverpool - Nottingham routes don't have any first class so they can just modify the interior to make all the seats standard class.

Hey, how do I change my name? Just asking in case I need to.

Ooh! What routes can they go on?

I'm not a driver but I'll take a guess and say that they have REALLY good acceleration and deceleration which means that they have fast responding times.

If EMR had the chance to order Mark 5a unit's then at least they would be built in time for a suitable production line, right? Also, the new franchise for the Liverpool to Nottingham services could be TPE, so I'm sure they could fit in a few Mark 5a unit's + Class 68s. Feel free to correct me if...

They also could make some use on some Scotrail or Northern services.

I'm actually REALLY unsure what to name it. I don't know wether to listen to you and rename it to Earlestown or keep the name I have for that station. I'll come back to you when I've made a decision.

I actually just found out that Earlestown is in St Helens and not Liverpool. Sorry! I kinda get confused of where Liverpool end's so that's probably why i accidentally named it that way. I'll rename the station to 'St. Helens Queen street Interchange' shortly!

Both of you have a point! I can also see the introduction of them going to the Liverpool to Nottingham services. I also didn't know that they had a large future with TPE but I remember that 15 of them could go on the Liverpool to Nottingham services!

Replacing the class 170 engines with Diesel-Electric versions for better acceleration! (Class 270 anyone?)

So, as we've heard, TransPennine Express plans to keep 22 class 185's in service. But where will the rest of the 29 go? To be honest, I don't know where they should go but cascading them to another company is my preferred idea. So, where do you think the rest of them should go?

Maybe I went a bit over the top by renaming it but I guess renaming it wouldn't hurt, right? Well, I guess everyone has their opinion!

Ordering class 68/93s by Stadler and mark 5a's by CAF would be a sensible idea, but there will only be 10 class 93s to lease so I guess they could order a few more? Class 170/185s could also be another good idea, and maybe the Hitachi AT300's could also fit with the service despite already being...
