    Good morning all, please complete the poll and comment below with your reasoning. I'm kinda curious as to what routes people are looking forward to.

    That's easy to say... The ICE 3 is my all-time-favourite. Finally getting to drive this on my PS4 fulfills my deepest wish even though it's "only" 70 km. (or 47 miles as you non metrical guys say)
    I looked up this route and I'm looking forward to it, because it has a beautiful scenery. Let's hope DTG doesn't ruin it! :D

    Bakerloo line
    Used to be a regular line I’d go on. Happy to see it in TSW2.
    Hopefully DTG nail it

    Although I am looking forward to all three, I am particularly looking forward to the German route. If it’s anything like the German routes in TSW then it is bound to be the best of the three. I think speeding through the lovely countryside in an ICE is going to be a more enjoyable experience than crawling up a steep hill for days or the constant start stop of the underground, although I will enjoy those things too.

    I chose CSX for two reasons. First, because the other two routes strike me as purely passenger based and my ability to handle passenger traffic is downright pitiful, so I avoid it 99% of the time. Second, because it looks like a good deal of switching work will be present in the new CSX and that's my favorite type of railroad activity.

    I personally enjoy passenger traffic and hate freight. Thats my opinion.

    Bakerloo Line out of those 3. It will be good to see how it plays on TSW2.

    I'm with you on that. If it's a freight scenario then I'll do it to get that box ticked, but I wouldn't normally choose to do it.

    The thing that's going to make or break the Bakerloo line for me is wether the timetable is realistic, trains every 3 minutes. Well have to wait and see I suppose.

    I imagine there will be a stream at some point in mid-June.

    Bakerloo for me, it'd be something unique that I haven't experienced in TSW. I've always wanted to control a subway train, and just go through the dark tunnels.

    I like commuter runs so it is Bakerloo for me. I just hope that the tunnels are not just a black abyss and the lights work down there. :)

    I voted Bakerloo because I think it will be interesting to see how well Dovetail captures the feeling of a busy Underground line.

    As an aside, has it been confirmed whether or not the ICE line will feature LZB?

    I agree, to drive a subway will be a new experience we never had before in TSW. But it won't be that way to drive through tunnels all the time, because the northern part of the route lies above ground and we will see daylight. I also assume that the underground stations in London will look pretty good...

    TrainSim_Fan, I stumbled across some you tube route learning videos of this line (can't link, at work now :)) I note they put on high beams in the tunnels. It certainly isn't daylight but it does light it up somewhat. They dip the lights when arriving at a station.

    Did you??? My youtube channel isn't TrainSim_Fan so unless you know what I sound like................its not my channel.

    Note : Correct, you dip your light to dim when entering a station.

    Same. Passenger trains seem more fun to me.

    I’m looking forward to CSX HH the most- can’t wait to finally get my hands on the AC4400CW... getting the ICE train is also a big plus for me.

    The Koln-Aachen route. Looking forward to experience the high speed ICE and getting to learn LZB
