    With the revelation that we will need to keep the original Dresden to Riesa route installed to supply layers to other routes, even if we own the forthcoming extended version, as the title states we need an option to hide the old route in the menus. This could be similar to how Steam does it which allows you to hide games you no longer play in the Library list, though of course with the option always there to switch back on.

    This could be more relevant going forward, if DTG decide on further extensions leaving an increased number of obsolete routes in the menu screens. Or equal application if you just want to streamline the menu to show the routes you are currently interested in playing.

    Sounds like a Favourites option is needed, which people can use either in the way you suggest, or to show their most-played routes.

    Well technically you can sort routes by “Recently Played” except that it doesn’t actually do that and just randomly shuffles the route order.

    Whilst they're at it; can they also get rid of the "new" label that shows regardless of how long you've had a route

    Would be handy for someone like me who has most routes installed purely for layers.

    That would help with locomotives too.
    Ton of them I HAD to buy with routes but never use.
    And a lot of routes I only wanted a layer from.

    I realize it's just a quality of life issue and not a major thing, but it would be nice, especially the more content you gather through the years.
