The Roadmap just confirmed. Cargo Line Vol.6 is a thing. This Time it's For a German Route. It's called Cargo Line Gas. Feel free to Discuss Personally, I hope for a German Version of Class 66 or 77
I confess I'm really curious to know which rolling stock will be used this time I bet it will be the german variant of the class 66
My guess is it's the Zagkks gas tank car, one of the most common gas tank cars on the european rail network. It's used for LPG (For example Propane). But a cryogenic tank car would be cool (!)...
I just checked in the Game itself, and that looks like the Ludwigsbahn. This Screenshot was taken in Mannheim.
For the UK freight rolling stock situation, the constant recycle of the class 66 was a downside of the cargo line. For the german cargo line i dont really care about the loco included, given the comparable large variety of substitution options and the pricing of the dlc. Something i would want to have are new liverys for the 185 and layers on appropriate austrian/NL routes. One thing i agree on is that it would be nice to get the class 77 for a special cargo line, possibly dedicated to a future diesel only route.
Definitely getting this pack. I'd love for them to have expert coupling so we can use them with the Expert 145.
Looks promising, but let's wait and see what else it will include, and which routes it will layer into. At this point, I'm cautious Honestly I don't get why so many people are so keen on a class 66/77, the thing's butt ugly. But I guess tastes differ... to me, it would even be an incentive not to buy the pack. Let Skyhook team up with TSG/Maik and have a 232 instead!
I'm not a big Fan of the Class 66/Class 77 either. But at least one would be nice, just for a Change.
doubt it will have this feature, expert coupling is a TSG thing. Cargo line never called itself expert. So no, not going to happen.
It’s great news that Cargoline is expanding into new territory but I hope that Skyhook haven’t finished with the UK. There are so many more wagons that could be done!
Very unlikely to be a new loco, that's the exception rather than the norm with these packs, and less need - I expect these wagons will sub in in service mode with any German freight loco. Scenarios probably using the 185.
A German shed would be very welcome, as would a revamped 187 that was actually enjoyable to drive. But regardless, every cargo line pack to date has been super enjoyable and I’ve no doubt that this will be again so I’ll very probably be picking this up on release.
Damn, you may actually be onto something here. Could this be the pack that finally fixes the absolute trainwreck (hah) of the 187?
I think that we need some American Cargo Line Packs. I've made a wishlist of my ideas. Here is the link: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/us-freight-dlc-packs-for-existing-routes.91052/
Garmany needs more wagon,there are less wagon for germany and germany or european are the side with the fewest wagon content Skyhook needs to focus on germany for 2 or 3 DLC cargoline only for germany
Interesting, thanks for educating me. Didn't know that everyone has to like the same trains for the same reason to be a "train person". What a wonderful diverse world we live in
By the many BR 185 that are already in the Game, I wouldn't be Surprised if DTG one Day decides to put this Loco in the Core giving us another Free Loco. Especially if Skyhook plans to bring more Cargo Line Packs to German Routes.
Yeah, it definitely makes sense to include the 66, 185 and Dostos in the core as they come with every modern UK/German route anyway, so it would a) save disk space b) help the addon mounting issue c) stop people complaining that they get provided with every route when the alternative would be worse
As far as I know Dostos are already in the Core. They were Added with the BR 145 or BR 147 not really Shure
What does that mean in practice? If I buy one of those, will the assets be transferred to the core game and removed from all the other .pak files, saving a lot of disk space?
I'm thinking maybe this should be called Cargo Line Germany Vol 1 instead of Cargo Line Vol 6, specially since there are bundles with all the Cargo Line DLCs and it would not really make much sense to mix UK wagons with DE ones.
