    Would like to know if the route Rhine Railway: Mannheim - Karlsruhe + Frankfurt High Speed is a good buy? I've seen that the reviews are very different and I'm a bit confused... I was also thinking about buying the DB BR 407, DB Regio - Twindexx vario and the BR 430 for variety. Do you think the route is worth it? Thanks in advance!

    I have the routes you have mentioned and I enjoy running them
    But I tend to use the Real Drive Scenarios as they give you more control on what you run and where you stop

    I have the BR407 but mainly for the Reskin in to the Class 374 but you have to have PZB enabled to go over 160kph

    I don't have the Twindexx as I prefer a loco with the coaches

    And I don't have the BR430

    Thanks for the reply!
    How is the route regarding signaling? That´s what worries me the most...

    It seems ok but I'm not an expert - LZB works on the faster sections
