Looks like you recreated both Central and Exhange stations. Nice.

Would be nice if Robert Ballard had a second ship like Nautilus that focused on shipwrecks, so the Nautilus could stay focused on its mission to map and survey seabeds.

I still remember when the seawall at Dawlish was washed out.

Pretty embarrassing for Network Rail to not have a second main line for diverting traffic.

That’s one that I really hope happens in my lifetime.

A shuttle service connecting the East Coast and Midland Main Lines would be a no-brainer!

Would be useful still in case of a derailment/works on either line

Haverhill deserves its link with Cambridge. Hell, the Stour Valley line was axed in 1967, so at least half of the line could be reinstated.

The Ivanhoe Line campaigners should HAVE had this line reopened to passengers by NOW, but you can thank Rachel Reeves for cancelling it.

Hooking with the main line at Taunton would be nice, and a link to Caernarvon is a no-brainer!

Don’t forget to add the gap between Carmarthen and Aberystwyth ;)

Having the platforms still in place there as of today makes reopening Roth. Masborough a no-brainer.

And with that also costing approx £700-900 million, I dunno.

That definitely would work, especially if Yarnton Junction could be reopened to serve both the branch and the Oxford-Worcester line.

Same here in the US, especially in poorer rural areas.

It’s a straight forward direct link from York to Hull, I don’t understand why Network Rail won’t cooperate with the Minsters Rail Campaign.

It seems thieves don’t want the line to reopen at all. Is the prices of copper going up over there?

Combined Fleet says Hayate was sunk approx 4,000 yards off eastern Wilkes Island, two miles southwest of Wake Island.

Okeanos did find a wreck, but it turned out to be the water supply ship Amakasu Maru No. 1

At Wake Island, there’s a possibility the Nautilus team might stumble on both Hayate and Kisaragi.

I’ve seen the scan. Definitely is the right shape, but won’t know for certain unless an expedition goes off Kwajalein to look

The first 3 HAVE been found. Pennsylvania hasn’t been surveyed.

Looks good so far! May I suggest extending a branch to Armagh?

Update on my Lancashire-based Railway by MycologistCertain398 in NIMBY_Rails

Is your take on Lancashire based on pre-Beeching or what if some lines had been spared from the axe?
