Customer Reviews

Utterly boring with no detail at all. Nothing here to attract a train simmer
I got this for Christmas 2007 with high hopes. But unfortunately it turned out to be a nasty surprise. The level of detail is so low that I wonder if the developers have ever visited the line.

The Class 365 is really horrible because the starting sound is the same as the GNER's Class 91. There are only 10 activities to play, and three of them feature the East coast mainline only and no part of the Hertford loop, and another two of them are only boring Empty Coaching stock workings. There is only one activity that I find fun, that is the King's cross to stevenage express run with a Class 91.

None of the activities start or finish at Hertford North and there isn't a bridge at the northern end of Hertford North station plus there are extra sidings which do not exist.

Steer clear from this unless you really want the line itself. East coast express parts 1 and 2 are much more realistic. Really give this one a miss.

Not Impressed
Not one of the better parts of the ECML, I get the impression that this release has been rushed with very little concern for accuracy.

More then one of the activities involves the east coast mainline only and no part of the Hertford Loop.

No activities start or finish at Hertford North and there are extra sidings in silly places at Hertford North which do not exist at the real station plus the bridge at the North end of the station is missing.

Hertford Loop
In this series are The Hertford Loop and the Moorgate Branch. Also The Emirates Stadium has been added. The fleet in this series are Class 313s and 365s both in Network South East livery. It's an excellent game and is well worth buying!!!
