    The last thing I was able to buy was the CRR, and with work moving at snails pace and my incoming income being so small I have to prioritize my money to keeping a roof over my head and my car on the road.

    I know you probably mean that as a joke, but during this pandemic I haven't been laughing these last 2 years has been a extreme struggle for me.

    I am not sure how much more I can take.

    I am sorry to hear it! :(

    Probably it will not be a great consolation for You, but with me, it is definitely not better (the house and the car are gone already, no kidding too). I have trains and stupid jokes left! :D

    In fact, I could consider one more purchase but there are HL, CC, and now this on the horizon.
    I'm afraid, the day after tomorrow we will see the announcement of the loco-pack to CRR...
    How to live?

    Passion is important in life! I hope we can all manage somehow, such strange times!

    So what about these wagons? :)

    It's really amazing. The DB BR 101 will be the first German passenger rolling stock for the Livery Editor that is not an EMU and yes, I remembered the DB BR 363 just in time and added the "passenger". :D

    I absolutely love the look of this locomotive, the IC coaches compliment it very nicely too.

    While the cab car would've been a nice inclusion to this pack, it's absence isn't going to cause me to lose any sleep. Only question I have is, will it layer into any other routes besides HRR?

    Looking forward to a preview steam on this one :)

    I am really sorry to hear that everyone is one a really bad spot right now, having a sense of humor even now can be a good thing as it helps take your mind off of the bad. And agree driving trains is always enjoyable for me I find it to be a great escape from the real life issues.

    I certainly hope that things get better for all of us and things can return some sort of normalcy really soon.;)

    I think this is just meant to be a teaser article. These screenshots were shown off on the 2nd Railfan Fest stream over the weekend, this was probably just a means to releasing the shots out for everyone who didn't tune in.

    Agreed I haven't been vaccinated yet, it will probably mid next month before my age group gets its turn to get my first dose. Then it will likely be September before I get my second dose.;)

    No, only HRR at the moment. But maybe the Pres. Coll. Team will at some point layer it somewhere else.

    It fits quite well to an incomplete DLC...
    :X

    such a missed opportunity. A real shame for the gorgeous looking model. Like FIFA with only half of the teams of each tournament. Or F1 with only 5 Teams.

    Anyway it is what it is and unlikely to change so have fun everybody who can enjoy it.

    The problem is where can you layer it realistically since it doesn't have the cab car. You can't do hma since it doesn't come with the cab car. You can't do ska since IC services are rare. Maybe Rhein Rhur Osten, Rhur Sieg Nord and MSB but I'm not sure if there are intercity services that run on those routes

    Would be interesting to see if 101 layers are added to RT after the summer timetable update

    I'm pretty sure RRO features ICE and IC services between Wuppertal and Hagen. This is very well possible to implement into the game.

    Strange article. There is nothing at all about the 101, there are actually only pictures that you have already seen.

    I would buy it if it adds layers for more routes than short HRR, but it's unlikely, so i'll unlikely buy it.
    There are many pros for this loco, but that it features services only for one short route gives it a long minus which overdrives the all pluses pf the BR 101.

    Now it's getting exciting. Now there is a race between the DB BR 101 and the DB BR 182 from Rapid Transit. Which comes first The 101 or the Rapid Transit Update that makes the 182 Livery Editor compatible. Which of the two will be the first German passenger locomotive (which is Not an EMU) to win the title. First German passenger locomotive with Livery Editor compatibility. :D

    Would like some clearer shots of the IC coaches please, inside and out. Also a bit more of the 101 cab.

    You guys are getting vaccines? :D There's like 5 doses in my whole country... or at least the government acts so...

    Anyway on the topic of 101... please DTG... have it layer at more routes, a missing cab car is a loss, but at least give it more content in the gameplay department, not just a 27 minute (at best) runs on HRR.

    no, sorry, Sam has said that there won’t be Br101 on both ends. In reality, that is made, but we won’t see that in the game.
    But something else, I am not 100% sure but aren’t these the waggons that are also used in switzerland, austria, italy,...?
    Then we would get a nice to do list for the livery editor :D

    I know rro does indeed have ice services which go from Koln HBF to Berlin HBF via Wuppertal and Hagen hbf. If ic services do indeed run on the route then maybe it can be added in the future

    and I think there are also two services (IC60/61) to and from Hamburg-Lübeck. And there are also two on MSB from Lohr to Aschaffenburg, so maybe DTG could implement at least these few services on other routes, that the IC is not only used on HRR. HRR is a great route, but not enough for this cool loco! And yes, we can use it in the scenario editor, but that’s not the way (imo)
    I don’t wan’t to create a new scenario for every route at least once to drive the IC there, and then an AI train runs over a red signal, the hame crashes or the signals aren’t lighting up in the right color...

    Why not one locomotive at the front and one at the end to make the turnaround easier at HMA?

    Well even if the main routes it used one won't have locos at both ends,It would still be a interesting option to add to the senario planner version of this train,otherwise this train won't have many senario planner consist options.

    Well, I took a short look where IC services are operating today on our routes:
    -2 From Hamburg-Lübeck
    -2 From Lübeck to Hamburg
    -10 From Wuppertal to Hagen
    -11 From Hagen to Wuppertal
    -0 On other routes, as far as I looked it up.

    Wait What? If you have to pay for this add on train then adding a extra 101 to the train doesn't equal free.

    Since these will be the frist single level passenger coaches that any german routes has gotten,it feels like we will be buying it to get the new coaches while the loco just tossed in as a bonus.(Because let's face it this loco just another box on wheels)(There are already many better looking german locos to choose from in game,for example the db br 182 or 143 or 185 are more interesting then this thing is.

    The confirmed Avmmz 106 and Bpmmz 284 are Eurofima-coaches, that were also owned by ÖBB, SBB, SNCF, SNCB, FS, CD (after 1990) and some other european TOC.
