Description:
The length of the Cornish mainline through Cornwall which stretches for 79 miles from Plymouth to Penzance, as well as all branch lines in the county which run from Plymouth to Gunnislake, Liskeard to Looe, The Bodmin & Wenford Heritage Railway, Lostwithiel to Fowey Docks, Par to Newquay, Burngullow Junction to Parkandillack, Truro to Falmouth and St Erth to St Ives.

An updated version of my original East Cornwall & Branches route updated for Trainz 2019, with the whole route using more accurate free LIDAR height data, TurfFX grass, more baseboards to expand scenic areas where you can see further, improved assets, rebuilt stations and more. Currently only East of Mutley Tunnel (at the Eastern end of Plymouth station) uses the old height data, and will be updated at a later date.

 

Enjoy driving through the scenic Cornish countryside with rolling fields, rivers, estuarys, coastal areas, wooded valleys and passing through small market towns.

 

 

Although this has been built with Trainz 2019 it should also work in Trainz 2022

Some TRS19 routes are required for some of the dependancies, these are:

  Cornish Mainline and Branches - TRS19, ECML Edinburgh - Dundee, & ECML Kings Cross - Edinburgh, as well as the "Additional TANE Assets for TRS19" package.

Sessions for V1.5 +:

 

These sessions will work in 1.5/1.6 and 1.7. The name of them is just what version of the route I made them in, but as no track has been moved, they should work in any version from 1.5 and above.
