Why on earth does the (DB) Vectron substitute on Bremen to Oldenburg? According to DTG the route is set in the early 2000 and the Vectron is from around 2015. As far as I know there is no option to block substitutions, which would be very handy and needed when DTG does not bother about unrealistic substitutions.
DTG isn't particularly strict about the rolling stock and the years in which the route is supposed to be set. Oldenburg–Bremen is supposed to be set in the late 2000s, but BR 110 and nWagen trains were no longer running on that route at that time. From around 2002 to 2003, Dostos, the BR 111 and BR 145 were used on the Hanover-Norddeich Mole line, and later the BR 146. The BR 612 is also pure fantasy. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
Thanks, I will take a look at that, but I'm afraid this will disable all substitions, also the ones you want active. I want something like the way you can disable layers.
You're right, it's late 2000, but even then then Vectron is unrealistic. They really don't care about some realism, look at the BR642 in Westfrankenbahn livery on every route....
Apparently its for "game play", realism doesn't always seem to be a factor. I have seen a class 110 and Dostos, on the old Dresden to Reisa route if I recall, from what I can gather that couldn't happen and certainly wouldn't on that route at the time it is set. I know little about German railways though. Some routes the layering/substitutions seems set up well. I can switch of the class 40 on the Blackpool route and it just removes it, if I want to switch the class 40 off on the later Shap route, it seems to turn a complete layer off.
Yes the BR110 from Linke Rheinstrecke layers on Dresden - Riesa, completely wrong livery for the era too. As long as it is a layer, you can disable it individual, but substitutions seems to be an all or nothing thing.
