Good country branchlines?

[alexl102]

Can anyone recommend good British branch line routes? I've got Ashburton - Windrush but I'd like one or two more if there are any good ones.

Cheers!

I don't have an FCT, so am not really able to download any routes, but from the looks of it, Paul's 'Much Murkle' route seems to be a country-themed route.

Search author Robert3a0 on Dls you will find interesting themes.

My Tristyn & District - GWR has a lot of rural branch line mileage, and Rosworth Vale - LNER is predominantly open country running, although has limited branch workings per se. I note that you have TANE-Std which means that both those route could show a few missing assets, but I don't believe it is anything that cannot be worked around! Regards. Colin.

Hi Colin,

I forgot to specify in my original post but I'm still using Trainz Mac 2 (equivalent to TS12), so T:ANE routes are no good to me. However, I have just downloaded the original Tristyn for TS12 and am very fond of it, so thank you!

You dont need to have FCT to download routes the only thing you need is more patience.

ISTR there's a Fairford Branch on the DLS, albeit when I looked at it didn't seem 100% geographically accurate and had some eye watering gradients which never existed on the prototype.

For the benefit of those not familiar with this route it became something of a railway modellers' cliché in the 60's and 70's, being the quintessential GWR branch line. So there is probably justification for someone else to have a go at bringing it to life in Trainz!

On the subject of GWR branches, there is also a rather excellent rendition of the Lambourn Valley Railway which I believe is on the DLS.

You could give the Lambourn Valley Railway a try V03 kuid 129486:1801507:1 I have now got TS12 but I cant seem to get it run on but had better luck with TS2009 only wish it was set up to run on TS12...Paul
