What's your Main Line Route & where would it terminate?

[hexagon789]

As this is entirely fantastical, then I propose a replacement Anglo-Scottish route from London which would run through Leicester, Manchester, Keswick then over a bridge, up through Dumfries and into Glasgow.

Much more convenient than all that running via Carlisle, Preston and Crewe nonsense!

St Helens is rough as hell, unlikely making that would do any favours. Let's leave it at earlestown hey

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.

My ideas: Part 2

Okay, Let's start with the new stations/lines:

1. 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 is a half-British/half-Japanese company.
2. Liverpool Metro Oliver-North Line(Take a good guess why it's named that ): Serves the existing Canada Dock Line which includes a new line between Bank Hall and Edge Lane via Bramley-Moore and Lime Street (A bit like the 2017 version of Kayla Bibby's Sergeant Pepper Line, but covers a bit more of the docks and uses a bit of the Liverpool Overhead Railway). The previous stations before the original passenger services are present with a few new stations at County Road, Kirkdale and Bank hall. There will be several Junctions along the line which lead to existing lines including the existing junction near Wavertree Technology Park.
3. Liverpool Metro NorthEast Line: Another Subway line Between Liverpool Lime Street and Tower Hill via Norris Green. An alternative route for the 14A bus route as it runs along the same route.

Here's the routes!

1. New Brighton/Chester - John Lennon Airport (All stops. Via Central Line.)
2. Chester - Hooton - Birkenhead Central - James Street - Liverpool Lime Street - St Helens Queen Street - Manchester Piccadily - Sheffield - Meadowhall/Rotherham Central (Alternating) - Doncaster - Scunthorpe - Barnetby (Limited Service) - Grimsby Town - Cleethorpes

Oh god, I feel like putting all of these ideas into one thread!

Seeing as this is fictional...

Whitehaven – Workington – Cockermouth – Keswick – Threlkeld – Penrith – Appleby – Kirkby Stephen – Settle – Skipton – Keighley – Shipley – Leeds – Garforth – York

My nearest route is the bury line Metrolink, But the nearest heavy rail is the Bolton line. So I would run a service from Bolton via Radcliffe into Manchester Victoria bays-or send it on to Wigan.

This route runs a little far out, especially between Orpington and Surbiton. Move it a bit further in like this and it would be much more well used:
