    Guys,

    I believe this goes back a number of sim releases, but I don't remember seeing anyone else discuss this (so forgive me if it has been & I missed it!):

    Semmeringbahn, by default, allows the Vectron to sub into that route. My issue is that there is a large reduction of available liveries for the Vectron that are allowed to be used there. I have an MRCE and a beautiful OBB 1293 repaint from the Creator's Club in my install, and my buddy has the huge Vectron pack that Hannah Hermine made in the last 2 years. We can both confirm that none of the OBB Vectron repaints on either of our installs can be chosen at the start of the route.

    Did OBB make some stipulations during licensure with Dovetail that limited the route to only the 1116 and the 5022 being displayed with their branding on that route? The only stock Vectrons I can choose from are the Railpool units and the MRCE repaint I downloaded. I'd really love to use this on that route:

    That would be practically impossible to implement only for OeBB liveries as you described.

    If your installation is anything like mine, there seems to be a bug in the game itself where the Railpool Vectron is listed twice, and one of them only has one service, a Vectron Express one, while the other all the (many) others. Sadly, when picking a repaint for the Railpool Vectron, the game auto-picks it for the first of the "two" Railpool Vectrons and with it only gives you the one service.

    Aside from that bug, which does indeed stop me from using any Vectron repaint at all in anything other than the Vectron Express service, it sounds like your secondary issue here might be that your other repaints or mods apply to a Vectron that isn't the Railpool one (the DB likely) and in that case nothing you can do aside from spawning it in yourself or making a scenario with it, the devs simply haven't set the DB Vectron as possible appearance in this DLC.

    If you search for [AS] (with the square brackets included) on the Creators' Club I currently have six Vectron liveries of which three are indicated as for the Railpool Vectron, and will thus work on this route (with the aforementioned caveat that the game only lets you do the Vectron Express due to a bug), with one of them being a 1293. upload_2026-9-12_19-40-31.png
