Last Updated 20/10/2023 10:30 - New Cross Depot shunt limit relocated, Surrey Quays crossover made functional for reversing via Canada Water.
The East London Line was a sub-surface underground railway in East London running from New Cross and New Cross Gate, interchanges with the Southern Railway, in South London, to Shoreditch in East London, within close proximity of the Great Eastern Railway from London Liverpool Street, making use of London’s oldest passenger tunnel; the Brunel Thames Tunnel running under the River Thames from Rotherhithe to Wapping. This package contains the East London Line in the year 2006 before Shoreditch station was closed but it was still a fully-operational London Underground Line. There are 9 stations and 1 depot at New Cross on a line stretching almost 6 miles, with open-air, sub-surface and underground tunnel sections. The route has one Free Roam scenario, one Standard scenario, and is QuickDrive compatible in both directions. There are also a dedicated QuickDrive consist for the LU D78 stock from Virtual District Line. This is also necessary if you would like AI trains in your QuickDrive scenario.
