    The german route Main-Spessart-Bahn (from Aschaffenburg to Gemünden) first released for TSW 2 (on March 2019). Now over 5 years later in TSW 6 with new locomotive jiggling this is unplayable. I just started a route with BR 193 (Siemens Vectron) from Frankfurt-Fulda (Red DB Livery). When i accelerated until ~110 km/h the train started to jump on the rails and the wheels started glitching into the track (look at the picture i attached). This is not a new problem. Indeed it has been reported several times and even exists in TSW but at least not so disturbing (note: i never played TSW 2).

    Reported here on January 2nd 2024: https://rail-sim.de/forum/thread/40737-frage-bzgl-der-main-spessart-bahn-in-tsw4/ (GERMAN FORUM)

    As of January 2026 the Route costs 24,99 € (if not in steam winter sale). For that money (even if i bought it for TSW 3) i expect that i receive a better quality. In my opinion there should be a complete overhaul of the route, upgrading it to latest TSW 6 features (or to whatever standart it will be when its complete) and maybe building an extension to Hanau and/or Würzburg. A timetable update with new locos (like ice-t) is needed as well

    I hope DTG will read this and consider this suggestion as a todo and remaster the DLC (even if there is no extension). A timetable update with new locos is needed as well

    Most older routes should IMHO be permanently reduced in price by at least 33%.

    And yes MSB along with RSN really needs a remaster and possibly extension. Replace the horrid 185’s on freight with the new 140’s.

    Hmmm...from a certain sense...well, as on SKW, they've already laid the tracks from Würzburg Hbf to Gemünden (so, somewhere they have the necessary data), and on FTF they laid the tracks to Kahl (Main), well, actually, there is only a 15 to 16 km gap between Aschaffenburg Hbf and Kahl (Main) where they haven't already laid the track and the landscape tiles... So well, probably release it as Würzburg Hbf to Hanau Hbf...just thinking, nothing obligatory...^^.
