I have a bone to pick with you Joe! You always run citybuses between towns, but I'm sure these would be better served as coaches. If you put a coach station at each town, near the railway station if applicable, ideally near the centre, you could have express service between the different cities, and you could use local buses to feed these coach services that would be faster, and with more suitable vehicles. This in turn also helps reduce traffic by allowing many people to walk, or very quickly reach via your other buses and trains to an express intercity service. You would also be able to adjust the buses more precisely since the routes would serve separate purposes. I also think light rail would be a great project for the Nante/Challan and Le Crosic clusters. cw315 has made some excellent assets for a tram train system. If you were after a system where you wanted street running, the "Light Rail Overhaul" and "Marc's Street and Trampack" are excellent mods. I especially enjoy the latter for the grassy tram tracks. These are of course only suggestions, but I think they would really aid your traffic and overcrowding issues immensely.
Joe could you do the following in the next episode or the following episodes: Replace the FCC Class 319s with GN Class 321s Replace the EWS Logs Trains with GBRf Class 66s Potentially run a East - West High Speed service from Granville - Lorient using Class 43s in FGW or VTEC livery Put a coach service from Brest - Rennes to compete with the Northern High Speed Create a branch line from Granville to Audierne via Vannes using Class 158s (hopefully TPE or Northern) Potentially create a light rail tram from Bruz - Liffre - Chateaubriant using Metrolink M5000s Get a bit of freight to Rennes/Bruz Add a regional service from Auray - Challans using 156s/155s Finally add a bus from Concerneau - Quimper then Audierne
Joe, to see the bus coverage, you click a stop then pin it, then click another stop and pin it again, and so on until you click and pin all the bus stops. Buildings in the coverage will be lit up in white. This way also works with train stations and any kind of stations really.
There is a coverage mod that will do this much easier. The minimap mod also has this functionality I believe. The mods are called "Network Coverage Map" and "Minimap respectively"
the 319s could do with a livery update (or atleast getting the ex-thameslink ones into the full FCC livery). Also maybe just having 1 voyager set be 8 or 9 cars to slightly boost capacity
