This route runs from Swalwell Jct on the Tyne Valley line to Berwick-upon-Tweed on the East Coast Main Line (ECML). Local trains between Swalwell, Newcastle, Morpeth, Chathill and Crag Mill Loop are modelled, plus main line passenger and freight services between Newcastle and Berwick.
openBVE: ECML can be driven in openBVE, but note that it was written primarily for BVE 4; when using exterior views of trains you may see gaps in scenery. BVE 4 users could suffer game performance issues if I was to add all the object faces, so it may be some time before I do this. Click here for openBVE exterior views you can add to some trains.
