BVE: I know I shouldn't ask..

08-28-2005, 14:45

After the massive success of Birmingham Cross city south, which is a route which I love driving i was just wondering if anyone knew how well the City North part was progressing?

Just curious you see Well done to all those involved in City South, absolutely brilliant!!

Also does anyone know whether class 357's are used anywhere other than on the C2C line??

Cheers

Francis !

RE: I know I shouldn't ask..

With regards to the progress of Cross City North, please refer to the project pages of www.railsimroutes.co.uk.

Electrostar Class 357 is used only on C2C lines, not anywhere else. A similiar version of Electrostar (class 375, 376 and 377)are in operation on Southern and South Eastern.

The difference between these two are the class 375, 376 and 377 are designed to operate on DC 3rd rail or dual voltage (DC 3rd rail and AC overhead)while the class 357 is only equipped to operate on AC overhead.
