I have also contacted Translink & Irish Rail to check if they would be ok with being featured in the simulator.

TheGamerboi213 It's not a bad suggestion, the route length seems about right. I've added it to our suggestion database. Thanks.

[TheGamerboi213]

No problem 👍

AmScot01324_Rivet Hi. I have came up with another possible idea for the Belfast - Dundalk route. I was thinking additionally if the route was on TSW 3, There could be some DLCs. These could be: additionally adding the railway line to Bangor for the 3000 class and 4000 class, and including the commuter livery 29000. Also, it’s worth noting that the trains from Belfast would start out of York Road Depot. Another DLC idea could be the Refurbished 3000 Class DMU with new logos.

Here is a photo of the Commuter livery on the IE 29000 Class

I like the look of that! I updated your suggestion to include this livery.

You're very welcome! We love suggestions, interesting to see all the areas/trains folks think are missing in game.
