Thorton Parklands - Nowadays a shadow of its former self, only two of the original 6 platforms remain in service. Originally got the inspiration from a real life station, before artistic license happened. I'll leave you to figure out where it was based off of...

At a guess, Broad Street station, but there's plenty of other stations, that have seen better days, that could qualify.

Alloa Goods ECC

Heh! Not like anything I ever recall in Alloa. I grew up 2 miles from there. Closest thing I can think of would be United Glass. Great shot as ever.

The route is by Justin Foulger viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2412 and is called Alloa Lane ECC .
Which is an altered version of Alloa Goods by Andreww and where I've got confused with the names
I've now amended the entry on here

Thanks. Must take a look and see if I find it familiar at all.

Holborn Viaduct Station?

I wouldn't say it was Broad Street due to the lack of overall roof.

Waverton station on the Eastrail blue line, haven't screenshotted it for a looong time

Very impressive, Innis. Is the route fictional or factual? It doesn't matter which really; I'm just being nosey.

Holborn Viaduct Station?

I wouldn't say it was Broad Street due to the lack of overall roof.

Indeed. It was origianlly based on Holborn Viaduct (with a slightly different set of surviving platforms), but differs quite a bit now due to the required trackwork.


Anyway, a couple more here - Two of Dartham Transport's brand new Class 317 replacements, the Class 474/5, seen here on a driver training service at Grange Grove:



Bit of a naughty viewpoint...


Someones drone captures a shot of the station, surrounded by the undergrowth:

Hi Dave. Entirely fictional (as far as I know) and I certainly can't claim credit. It's actually the Midshire Mainline route which I've been messing about with.

It's actually the Midshire Mainline route which I've been messing about with.

Is that the legendary v5? I don't recognise the lorry and portaloo, and I'm sure there were more trees around that wee depot. I hope I've not slept through a release! Still one of my favourite routes by a long shot.
