Great Western Mainline Electrified

Description
This is the default Railworks Great Western Mainline electrified from Paddington to Didcot Parkway.

I have used the default Overhead Lines and Gantries included with the DLC to keep requirements to a minimum so it is usable by anyone with the route, so it is not pretty.

This is also in no way meant to be realistic, I have just made it so we can drive electric trains on the route.

Please leave any suggestions in the comments.

To do:
Missing Gantries at Ladbroke Grove Jn.
Paddington Platform 12 Electrification.
Electrification from Reading to Didcot Parkway.
North Pole Depot & Reading Carriage Sidings Electrification.
Reading Depot speed limits.
More Scenarios.
Possible extension of the route from Reading to Newbury (unlikely).

Scenarios:
Paddington to Hayes & Harlington (Career)

hi I've downloaded the maps and the links for the needed files don't work and when i lode into the map all can weight
Thomas  [author] 24 Mar, 2022 @ 3:43am 
No worries, glad you've got it working!
jovojc 22 Mar, 2022 @ 1:24pm 
I have just found out, it comes up as a separate route in the map selector. Thanks for the response!
Thomas  [author] 22 Mar, 2022 @ 12:10pm 
I'm not sure then. I've not touched this project for over 3 years but there's no reason it shouldn't work
jovojc 21 Mar, 2022 @ 1:19pm 
The power lines are not showing in my game. I have both requirements...?

I've done the APT from Paddington to Didcot, with a stop at Reading, in under 40mins, thanks to the APT's top speed of 155mph and it's extreme tilting mechanism
Thomas  [author] 23 Feb, 2022 @ 9:46am 
I'm glad that you enjoy it :)
MikuHatGaming2023 23 Feb, 2022 @ 7:10am 
This is now my most used route, I love making up fantasy rail services ranked by how many stations the train stops at, as well as running the APT as fast as possible from Paddington to Didcot. I do wish you add more quick drive origin places like Didcot, Oxford and Reading, maybe even Old Oak Common, Reading Yard and Didcot Yard

Here is a list of all the workshop scenarios for the route.

Unfortunately I cannot allow you to re-upload my route. As you will be replacing the OHLE you might as well start from fresh as you'd be replacing it all anyway. Also, the scenario is literally just a 10-minute job
