Trivia

• This used to be both the shortest Waterline route and the shortest route in the game in terms of length (3,089 metres), but R015 now holds the title (1,705 metres).
  • Though in V1.8, R043 (Leighton West <> Leighton City) took over the record, being shorter than the 2 routes above with a length of only 692 metres.
• This route earns the most Points-Per-Minute (PPM) on average, at 6 PPM, provided that there are no delays at any point in time.
• It is one of seven routes to terminate at Benton, the others being R015 for Waterline; R039 and R044 for Stepford Connect; and R075, R079 and R085 for Stepford Express.
• The route has 3 interchange stations with Stepford Connect. They are Benton, Port Benton and Whitney Green (via Beaulieu Park).
• Two stations on this route, Morganstown Docks and Whitney Green, are long enough for only 3 car trains, with the 4th car hanging off the edge of the platform, meaning the Class 379, Class 319 and Class 165/1's 4th car cannot fit into those stations.
• This is one of two Waterline routes that do not call at Newry, Eden Quay, Faraday Road or West Benton, the other is R015 (Benton <> Morganstown).
• Along with routes R015 and Stepford Connect's R029, the highest speed-limits throughout the entire route are only at 75 MPH or lower (to match the max speed of the lowest max-speed trains).
• This was the first Waterline route. Originally opening with just four stops, Morganstown Docks opened at a later date.
• Players cannot spawn in this route going westbound. To do so, players have to terminate at Greenslade and change directions.
