London to Faversham + Sheerness addon.
The G-Force Meter comes on when you brake slightly & lose points if you not switch the brake off.
Also the SPAD & Driver Vigilance warning is either one buzz or nothing at all. Also the emergency brakes come on.

i really enjoy UK routes, and i like high speed trains, so this is perfect for me.
i really enjoy the way that the trains drive, including the power change at Ebbsfleet International.
overall, a very nice route

A great route for anyone wanting a high speed route as well as an electric train that can operate on both overhead wire and third rail as well as high speed. However the class 395 does not have the option to turn off the TVM430 system and also has the vigilance alarm going off when the train is stopped when the reverser is in forward and reverse and resulting in an emergency brake application when not responded to. In addition, the point where you exit from the overhead territory at Ebbsfleet onto the third rail mainline to Gravesend has the speed limit too high for a sharp curve point entry onto the third rail mainline which can result in point loss on comfort level in scenarios. So with that said, I will be taking 3 marks off for those 3 problems identified. Other than that, it is still a worthy addition for anyone's British collection, especially the high speed enthusiast for their high speed collection. A solid 7/10 from myself.

This is pretty interesting idea. We start at London and drive through hi-speed route on way for the English Channel with speed up to 140 mph. But quickly we diverge into Kent, switching to third rail power and continue as countryside commuter. This might sound riddicolous at first but it's actually how a real life service goes.
Pros:
- Very interesting and diversed route, from high speed to countryside
- Working TVM (TGV cab signalling system)
- Changing of voltage (overhead/third rail)
- If you own Chatham Main Line you can use this route and workshop merge to extend your route from Victoria to Faversham
Cons:
- Class 395 is very basic. Ok it has TVM and you can switch voltage but that's all. Even though it's pretty fun to drive.

It's a nice route but I feel like this is a wasted opportunity to build the whole of High Speed 1 all the way to Ashford and Dover and connect it to the Faversham section making it into kind of a loop.
Good:
A nicely detailed train.
Bad:
Only contains a small section of the HS1.
Lot's of displays are found inside the Class 395 but it's never used.
It only ends at Faversham.

Pros: Good route, especially the high speed part at the beginning.
Cons: Route needs to be updated, as three stations have had major overhauls Rochester, Gravesend and Rainham.

While I like the idea of this piece of DLC, I do not like much about it's execution. First of all it is unplayable with Train Simulator 2020 64bit edition, because scenarios just crash. With 32bit edition it is possible to finish the scenarios, but I still had some crashes. Most of systems are not simulated or simulated to bare minimum. I recommend to pass on this one.

The reason I don't recommend this DLC is that none of the career scenarios work. I can set up the train, pan up, doors closed, foward idrecction power on ... the 395 EMU doesn't move. At least I bought it at half price. Good luck with refunds from Steam, I'm always too late for the two hour limit. Caveat Emptor.

A very good piece of DLC - even though it is actually a combination of 3 routes (HS1, North Kent Line and Chatham Main Line) but overall it is a nice full route drive. The class 395 is one of the most detalied trains on the game and well worth a good drive. Class 375 is exactly the same as the 377 but with different livery. The class 466 is also very realistic but the horn is wrong. It's not worth the full £25 but good value in a sale.

Its a nice route and would only recommend it if you like fast trains as you can blast along a sizeable the CTRL line all the way to Ebbsfleet International in a Class 395 that is the UK's fastest passenger train in revenue service. Once you get to Ebbsfleet International, its then time to switch from the OHL to the third rail before continuing onwards to Faversham. The stock included is the Class 395 that is used for the included scenarios and you do get a Class 377 EMU which is mostly used as AI traffic but it is a player drivable train and you can drive this from Ebbsfleet International to Faversham on the third rail section of the route if you wish. I would recommended getting the Class 466 with Sheerness branch add on to go with this route as then this will give you the full benefit of the route.
Overall Rating: 9/10.
