This is my first time posting screenshots, so feel free to add any critisisms, i will try and use them constructively

As i usually try and built realistic routes etc, try not to insult my track layouts etc, as its not what i was concentrating on ! Also, i haven't tried to stick to the correct timescales, so i do know that Eurostar wasn't around in 1977 !!

Here's the first one, a shot of the newly built Thalys trains entering Rotterdam station. In addition, a batch of car passengers wait for the connection to Kingston-upon-Hull, aboard the newly formed CARLINE company ferries.
