Since I haven't really played this route very much before I'm not sure if these issues existed from the beginning or they're something new but I thought I'll mention the experience I had. Finished the first chapter of journey mode and started the second. The first service is a timetable run from Köln to Aachen in the Talent 2. First off I noticed that there are no passengers on my train. None when I started and none when I finished in Aachen. Same thing was on the last scenario I did which was "Snow and Ice". So after Rush Hour there are no passengers at all? Anyway, the second weird thing I noticed was that the clock that's on both screens in the talent 2 isn't moving. Speedometer works fine but the clock is stuck. When you change camera and back into the cockpit the clock has corrected itself but it's still stuck. The clock thing is a minor annoyance but having no passengers kind of beats the purpose of driving a passenger service in the first place.
This bug is affecting more and more routes. The passengers are there but they are invisible, you can bump into them. This bug is the same where players cant sit down as a passenger because the trains are actually full but you see them as empty. Currently this bug affects nearly all of the routes but since the problem is “invisible” dovetail just ignores it.
3 year later - THE BUG IS STILL THERE!!! This is so incredible and disrespectful. I love this route but it’s literally every time RE9/RE1 service without passengers. Is really dumb: When I start driving from the depot, the train is full of people! And then in Aachen no one gets in. In Aachen Rothe Erde, everyone gets out. Not a single passenger remains in the train. Until the last station cologne, NO ONE gets in. Same for the service to Aachen, in cologne the train is full of people, everyone gets out at cologne ehrenfeld. At Düren or Horrem the platform is packed with people and yet no one gets in. It’s the only train that drives there there. I hate this so much. Reported that probably 100 times. This bug was also reported by other players, YEARS ago, was topic multiple times in the forum and they can’t even fix the bug. I hate that kind of politics. Just fix that damn bug what is their f problem
