What a fantastic way to show off this full route, putting this on my list to not only get the extension but also to get the loco's to run on it also. Thanks again for a great video.
Yes, the class 86 use to run on the Great Eastern main line in Anglia Railways/ONE services days of the 1990s/early-mid 2000s, so did the 170 modern units for a period of time which later used the London-Lowestoft services, again for a short period.
@@PTGRail where do you find he reskin for the class 90 to get the actual branding 'Greater Anglia'as I bought the class 90 on steam and I have the livery but not brand name
Great video, the crossovers north of Stowmarket are called cow green and the so called industrial tanks are actually Tivetshall Maltings. I was a patrolman for many years on this route. Look forward to another video
A great video, thank you, I lived in Norwich in the 80s and 90s and travelled on this line many many times. It is interesting that the configuration of locomotive at the 'Up' (and first class) end, first introduced with the Class 86/DBSO combination in the late 80s, has been retained with the Class 90/Class 82 combination while the ECML has always had the locomotive at the 'Down' (and standard class) end with the Class 91/Class 82 combination.
Someone’s probably replied about the close neutral sections but I want to add my two cents Basically due to the amount of diverging routes out of Liverpool Street these sections need their own power and the substations around the London area are divided for each section. On the suburban lines power is fed between Liverpool Street and hackney downs before going to another supply and bow junction is split up between gas factory junction (another neutral section would be at the other end on the LTS) and then around manor park the neutral section is for the link to barking via woodgrange park where the power comes from the LTS substations. That’s the basic explanation of how there are more neutral sections around the London area
Great Video, about the Neutral Sections, as Adam said it is probably because this was the first section of UK railways to be fully upgraded to 25Kv from 1500v DC as it was originally this is Liverpool Street to Shenfield and Southend so this was based on the DC layout,which being DC ,Direct Current had to have short sections with frequent Substations, the Fenchurch Street to Shoeburyness had the same history and upgrade.....after this the next Electrification project was the West Coast line initially from Euston to Crewe which of course was built from scratch and was able to have long sections and wider spaced substations
The girder bridge you mention I believe carries the London Overground from as far as say Highbury & Islington, Willesden Junction, Clapham Junction and Richmond. Also to New Cross and West Croydon.
I’ve never managed to drive this route without it crashing before, it was awesome to be able to drive this entire journey in one go! Before 64-bit came along, I couldn’t even get as far as Shenfield before getting a crash dump, even after turning the settings down.
Awesome video! So professional and well-done and informative, you produce the very best!! Please keep it up! If you haven’t done so already, then please could you do a route learning from London Waterloo to Portsmouth Harbour in a class 444?!
Been on this route as I said previously in 2015 and also 2005. Yes, 115 miles between London Liverpool Street and Norwich. The midway point is around the Manningtree/Ipswich area.
i assume the neutral sections are close together because it used to be a 6.25 kV/1,500Volt DC line, before being converted to 25kV AC. Don't know if that's the actual reasoning though.
It's a shame that the Norwich extension is no longer available as the route just feels unfinshed ending in ipswitch. Thanks for doing this run , I realy enjoyed it.
Yes, you are right as well. I think that is the former Bishopsgate station, just outside Liverpool Street station. An incident took place around the area some years back and passengers had to walk on the tracks to Liverpool Street.
Great video Pete! I do believe there are decorated versions of the Southend and Southminster branches. I've seen Alan Thomson drive on them. A potential idea for the future maybe...
Heard the comment about wanting to see all the branches in Train Simulator. Look up the Crouch Valley Line on UKTS. It started with the southern branch to Southminister (version 1, out about 2009 or 2010), then extanded to include the branch to Southend Victoria (2011), and the latest and presumably final version is from January of 2014 including the ENTIRE GEML as far as Ipswich. i do not know whether he actually connected his route to it, but given he also has the Braintree extension and even added the Sudbury extension (with one of the scenarios there, a ghost train I believe), he might have done the entire route on his own at the same time as DTG did. Therefore, it's its own route, and I'm shocked it's not well known. ATS even has a track patch for it, hence my learning of it. The Crouch Valley Line. Check it out if you're interested. The branch just before Ipswich is not explored, unfortunately, and I do not believe he went past Ipswich.
Welcome aboard on this Greater Anglia service to London Liverpool Street calling at Diss, Stowmarket, Needham Market, Ipswich, Manningtree, Colchester, Marks Tey, Kelvedon, Witham, Hatfield Peverel, Chelmsford, Ingatestone, Shenfield, Romford, Seven Kings, Stratford and London Liverpool Street. The next station is Diss.
I can tell u that Witham has been done very realistically There is bridge before the platform and over it Even the vending machine on the right is in the correct place As well as the line of housing on the left and the factory thing on the right behind the car park
321s can be formed of 4, 8, or 12 coaches. I wasn’t sure which services were supposed to be which length, so chose randomly. As it’s during the morning rush hour, I figured that you’d be unlikely to see any 4 coach formations so went with 8 and 12, with 8 being the most common length I’ve seen when travelling on the GEML.
After a new install. I installed this from the steam workshop, but it still asking for other things I can’t find. I’m new to rail sims, I’m trying to get it working for my son. I travelled this service this evening on my way home. Thanks
How did you get the AGA Class 90/DVT set? Also I might as well add that the Full GEML route seen here does NOT come up on the steam workshop anymore, I'm not certain if it`s having a revamp or it is permentely gone. Any Suggestions?
I use miles on British and American routes as that’s what’s used in real life. I use kilometers on German and other routes in this game because that’s what they use in real life. :)
Most don’t, but this one does. I used the real timetable in the creation of this scenario. See here: www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/L81022/2018/12/06/advanced
Norwich services don't normally stop at Witham, but this one does. Train 1P04, the 06:25 service from Liverpool Street to Norwich is scheduled to stop at Witham at 07:08. See here: www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/L71013/2019/09/26/advanced
Hello, PTG and all: First of all, nice and long awaited video, especially the full GEML, a very interesting line. Second, I've been long trying to look for that Class 90 link, where can and did you get it for free or did you use payware to access the Greater Anglia Class 90? Thank you and keep up the good work.
Thanks for your comment! I’m glad that you enjoyed this video. The Class 90 is the version available from the Steam store, and the resin comes with the Wherry Lines route.
What a fantastic way to show off this full route, putting this on my list to not only get the extension but also to get the loco's to run on it also. Thanks again for a great video.
Extension????
The lower frame rate is also lifelike for the London to Norwich service
Hi
Hello, are you on Grindr?
@@DEFarnes I am lol ;)
Like to see this back in the 70s / early 80s with a 47 , old signalling etc
The girder overbridge at 9:37 carries the East London line with Shoreditch High Street station just to the left of the bridge itself.

The reason is that Greater Anglia's TMD for the 90s is at Norwich Crown Point, so it's easier to facilitate loco changes.
nice jops
The "jerk" when pulling away is quite common with the class 90s

As someone who misses these sets on the line in real life I had to go back and view this, excellent video :)
Superb to see a good drive on my commuter line. Hopefully there will be a GA Stadler Flirt in TS one day.

I had the same thought I think it was one the first, if not the first, lines to receive overhead electrification (but not all the way to Norwich).
It's a shame that the Norwich extension is no longer available as the route just feels unfinshed ending in ipswitch.
Thanks for doing this run , I realy enjoyed it.

nice to see a train going through diss and gissing towards norwich
Can you do a dusk time journey return from London Liverpool Street to Braintree please? In a class 321?
Where did you get the Reskin from? (Class 90 + DVT)
Great Video, the favourite thing about this train I like is the horn. =)
very professional train driver :) keep at it. ( You would be a great driver )
I wish this was on train sim world 4 that be awesome drive from Liverpool Street to Norwich
I have done this Route so many times! 🤣 (in reAl life)
Great graphics. Diss Station looks identical
After the signal at danger at the end of the platform at Stowmarket you failed to assume the following signal was also red.
i'm watching this without sound and at 2x speed, but what's up with that SPAD at 1:29:35 ? Bug in the route that won't clear the signal?

I really appreciate your videos. Thanks for sharing
Just out of curiosity, why do some of the 321 trains have 12 coaches when the majority have 8?

@@PTGRail Yes the CPU trains are timetabled.
7:00 Departure
This route is not available in the workshop, where to find this route
never new any stopped at witham.
Neither. I thought these services just skipped it.
This is the only Class 90 service to stop at Witham from what I can see in the timetable.
what ever
They also stop when trains run to ingatestone/shenfield
Is this the Norwich in 90 train?
I love these Train Simulator Videos please keep making more vids on Train Simulator
The Olympic stadium a 12:59 is now home to West Ham United football club.
Yes, that is right from the former ground at Upton Park. Ipswich station is the point where the line to Lowestoft turns off from the main line.
Why do I always think that it is Matt peddleston behind the mic?
PTGRail, Did you know that the class 91, 82 - Mark 3 and 82 Mark 4 DVTs have three horns?
RIP Greater Anglia Class 90s
Nice! This is the train I get to London from Colchester.
What happens if u drive with the DRA on John
1:29:45 So from here, can we call it the Diss-track?
Well done
can someone please tell me how to get the extention from ipswich to norwich please

The route or the train?
Will you be able to go from Shenfield to Southend Victoria at some point?
You can drive from Liverpool street to Southend Victoria. The extension is on UKtrainsim

That FOV tho...
nice logical commentary, thank you.
Love the way you use miles, so many things on TV now use kilometres which are pretty meaningless to us in the UK
I use miles on British and American routes as that’s what’s used in real life. I use kilometers on German and other routes in this game because that’s what they use in real life. :)
yes that's true but channel is aimed at UK viewers so do both on the continent perhaps?@@PTGRail

How did you get this route
Do you do a voice over or live voice with recording when doing these?????
It's a live commentary as I'm driving, though the introduction is usually scripted and done more as a voiceover.
@@PTGRail ahhh ok 👍 keep up the good stuffs. It really helps
