    Express routes are usually faster while AL routes can be slower and AL has trains that go 90 so not surprised express won

      There are moments in this race in particular where Airlink is much faster than Express (especially around St Helens Bridge, so this is closer than you'd think!

    • @Swiftors
      @Swiftors 6 месяцев назад

      The trains weren’t quite going to the same places at the same times, meaning that it wasn’t truly showing which is faster - it was just a race from stepford to Leighton while AL had to go through the airport area first.

      @@Swiftors Technically, if the video was aimed on showing the fastest way you could reach LSR (doesn't matter if stopping there or not) express could have easily won with the Llyn super fast route, which doesn't have any stops before LSR.
      I think a more fair way to measure it is if they would've raced to MGT, since there are routes on both express and airlink that start at SC and stop at MGT, so their routes would be roughly the same, with the only difference being the stops in between.

    • @MocoBroJosh

      Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about this, however to make this fairer I used a slower Express route and made the Airlink route as fast as it could be.

    • @MocoBroJosh
      @MocoBroJosh  Год назад

      There’s (currently) no way for Airlink to not terminate at the Airport, which is why I chose the fastest routes for Airlink and tried slowing Express down by making it stop at SHB.

  • @CBFNetworksArchive
    @CBFNetworksArchive 2 месяца назад

    This is kind of unfair. Reasons:
    You chose an Express route via Benton, whilst Airlink goes by MGT.
    AirLink did not stop at St Helens Bridge, whilst Express did.

    • @Mythical67899
      @Mythical67899 Месяц назад +1

      It would make the race more unfair, because AirLink needs to terminate at Stepford Airport Central while Express just turns right.

  • @mattevans4377
    @mattevans4377 2 года назад +3

    I think it would be fairer for SE to do R079 and R085, so that both services have to change service, as that eats into time.

    • @MocoBroJosh
      @MocoBroJosh  2 года назад +2

      That sounds like a smart idea on paper, however that doesn’t work since R079 goes into Platforms 8 and 9 I believe and R085 uses platform 2 at Benton, meaning you can’t switch between the routes.

    • @DARKNESS_DFL
      @DARKNESS_DFL 6 месяцев назад

      It all really depends on the route you choose, since express can have up to 9 stops per route, and AL can have around 3 stops. As per routes being enjoyable or not, it really varies with each person, with some preferring express and some preferring airlink. Personally, I like both operators and drive them depending on my mood.

    Out of all the Express trains, you pick (in my opinion) the worst one. I have a massive hatred for the 801. And to see that beat me favourite operator (AL) makes me rather angry. But…

    • @MocoBroJosh
      @MocoBroJosh  2 года назад +1

      I chose the 801 for 2 reasons
      1: It makes the race fairer against Airlink, both the 801 and 802 are the same length, both have 5 coaches and both can do 125mph
      2: It just makes the race in the cabs of the trains look nicer than 2 completely different cabs

      I tried to make this as fair as possible and there is no way to make the route lengths, speed limits and other similar things exactly the same.
      The reason I chose both 801 and 802 is for both trains to be the same length.
      The reason I ran the routes 5 minutes late is to make sure stops on both routes is the quickest is as it can be.
      I do understand where your coming from, however for a (future) series like this there is no where to make it perfectly fair.
