Since TSW3 has shown that longer routes are possible, why not have something Irish for a change with beautiful scenery and a variety of rolling stock? This route, if including the Bangor line, would be around 42 miles long. I myself am from NI and as someone who aspires to be a driver in the future this route would have me and anybody else in my shoes jumping for joy! Here are in-cab videos of these routes from the offical TOC:

(Note that there are also services from Portadown – Bangor and vise versa)
Rolling stock would include the CAF Class 3000 and 4000 series DMUs (images below), featuring modern UK cab features and safety systems aswell as following standard UK signalling. The track guage here is 5ft 3in which would make this the first broad guage UK route for TSW.
Class 3000 DMU:

In my opinion, this sim needs something Irish, and more Scottish aswell! Both countries feature awesome scenery, a variety of services and really immersive driving experiences. 😁
