Introduction
BHBP merges The Railways of Devon and Cornwall (RDC) and South Western Expressways to Reading (SWER).
RDC and SWE-R are two well established TS routes. RDC started with, develops and vastly extends DTG’s ‘Riviera Line’. SWE-R started with and significantly extends and develops Just Trains’ ‘South Western Expressways’.
The combined new BHBP route has well over 300 miles of main, secondary and branch lines across southern and south west England:
Required routes and assets
RDC and SWER used assets from a significant number of different sources, so BHBP’s required assets list is quite long. There’s no way around this for now, but the combined route offers hundreds of miles of main, secondary and branch line track, allowing lengthy, varied and totally immersive true to life scenarios.
BHBP just won’t work at all without your having: Train Simulator 2020 DTG – The Riviera Line DTG – The Riviera Line in the 50s Just Trains – South Western Expressways
It may work – but only just in some cases – without you having the routes and assets shown below. BUT there will be big gaps in the scenery and you’d have a poor user experience.
