    It would be nice to have automated announcements in the game. It would add to the realism factor.

    I think it should be a thing the player sets up through the Cab display like on the Bakerloo with the Number Pad. Select your destination, and at each station & before the station, the announcement plays. It would make the game feel less deserted and lifeless.

    They would only need the operators licensing. So, TFL for the Bakerloo announcements, they already have the licensing for TFL though which means they just haven’t included it.

    As I understand it, that is not how licenses work. Licensing only applies to agreed upon content not to the brand as a whole.

    They've really should've thought about announcements a long time ago. I don't get why we still don't have announcements

    I have modded some more realistic announcements for the Bakerloo Line stations. You can download from here.

    This enhancement provides different generic announcements to stations on the Bakerloo Line. The voice over is provided by Emma Hignett, who announces for various TfL modes of transport.

    Simply place the PAK file in your DLC folder, located at ...steamapps\common\Train Sim World 2\WindowsNoEditor\TS2Prototype\Content\DLC

    I have downloaded it and put it in my pc version of tsw2. Although it's a shame consoles can't get it so I would like dtg to have announcements for TSW2 for all platforms because it's not fair pc players can mod it in but console players can't even get announcements

    Moding is not only about TSW when it comes to differences between PC and consoles :)
