- Adding The Class 800 To The Great Western Express LineIt would be great to be able to drive these passenger trains on the Great Western Express line in Train Sim World. In real life, these trains are being rolled onto the Great Western Express line. It would be great to see this train as either a paid add-on or even better, a free add-on. Thanks
- Gwe Remaster: Appreciation And Discussion ThreadRepresenting First Great Western who, well, don't exist anymore. I still believe GWE excluded the FGW liveries in the release build because they wanted to distance themselves from the troubled life of the FGW brand; with GWR a "fresh start." Obviously, First can't do much about a blue train with pink doors, so long as their logo isn't there.
- Great Western Main Line (london Paddington - Swindon) | Gwe UpgradeIntroducing the GWML in its current modernized form with overhead wires, modernized Crossrail stations, and new rolling stock. Extended to Swindon the GWML features more than 70 miles of high-speed line to drive and explore. With a great option of commuter and intercity services, this route is packed and diverse, similar to SEHS or LBN.

The Class 165/1 was not around in 1989 as they were launched in 1992 with the Class 166 following in 1993. In 1989 you would have seen predominantly Class 117 and 121 DMUs on many services with a very small allocation of Class 101 and 104 units to make up numbers.
