    [TSW3] [3.GBB-R7 03] UK route (developed by Rivet Games) [New]

    [3.GAA-E6 01] Route Expansion Pack (UK) (developed by Rivet Games)

    [TSW3] [3.DGG-R6 01] [GERMAN ROUTE] – (developed by TSG)

    Any ideas or suggestions on what they may be?

    Here's how it breaks down:
    The code takes the format of X.ABB-DC 00

    X is a new prefix to the codes and denotes the overall age/original release window of the product. As follows:
    • 1 - Train Sim World/Train Sim World 2020 Release
    • 2 - Train Sim World 2 Release
    • 3 - Train Sim World 3 Release
    A is the region in which the route, loco or train is based. We've covered:
    • C - Switzerland
    • D - Germany
    • F - France
    • G - Great Britain
    • N - North America
    • X - Global
    BB are the traction types employed. Frequently there will only be one traction type in use, in which case we repeat the letter, however this allows for multiple traction variants:
    • A - Steam (both low and high pressure)
    • B - Electric AC
    • C - Electric DC (including Battery)
    • D - Diesel Electric
    • E - Electro-Diesel
    • F - Diesel Mechanical
    • G - Diesel Hydraulic (both Hydrostatic and Hydrokinetic)
    • H - Diesel Steam
    • J - Diesel Pneumatic
    • K - Electric Multi-Current
    • L - Gas Turbine-Electric
    • M - Maglev
    • N - Atomic-Electric (including nuclear fission or fusion based)
    • P - Jet Turbine-Electric (including Turbojet Turbine)
    • Q - Fuel-Cell-Electric (Hydro-Electrolysis)
    • R - Hydrogen-Electric (Hydro-Combustion)
    • S - Hybrid-Electric
    • T - For odd types such as Petrol and Kerosene
    C is quite straight forward - what type of add-on are we referring to:
    • L - Loco
    • R - Route
    • E - Enhancement/Expansion Package
    • W - Wagon/Coach
    D is the year the in which the add-on is set (not the years the route/loco was/is active, the specific year we used to set the release in):
    • 1 - 1825 to 1860
    • 2 - 1861 to 1885
    • 3 - 1886 to 1910
    • 4 - 1911 to 1950
    • 5 - 1951 to 1990
    • 6 -1991 to 2010
    • 7 - 2011 +
    The 00 is the unique number for that release if it duplicates another with the same settings above.

    Rivet uk route is AC Electric route set in recent times.
    Rivet expansion pack will be something to do with steam but set in recent times.

    This is based on the codes provided.

    There is also a us expansion pack is a modern diesel locomotive from what I read in the forums.

    The German route for tsg has been there since last month and it was leaked a while back as the Niddertalbahn or however you spell it. The route artwork was shown and it was kinda confirmed as well

    For the Scottish route I suggest it might be Edinburgh Waverly too Glasgow Central via Falkirk or Shotts Line Class 380 & 385. Unlocks 2019 timetable 4 Cathcart circle with both trains actually running Rush Hour services
    3. Rhein Main Verkehrsverbund S5/S6 Frankfurt am Main Hbf Bad Vilbel RB34 Bad Vilbel Stockheim Niddertalbahn. Some of the trains that are existing are likely to get the proper RMV Rhein Main Verkehrsverbund decals on the sides.

    Hold your horses mate! We don't know which country the route is in. It could be any modern AC electric route in the UK.

    We’ve seen a graphic that looks a lot like Partick station which points at the North Clyde Line

    The expansion pack won’t be a new loco - previous EPs have been liveries and scenarios. My guess would be preserved Jubilees and 5Fs with scenarios on one or more modern UK route

    ooo I'm excited! but tbh, steam in present day? does quite add up. I know that BR originally planned to operate steam until the 1990s but still

    unless, it is the Jacobite which does run in Scotland.

    I don't think that Rivet would overhaul that route for a third time..

    As someone previously said, it is likely something to do with Isle of Wight steam railway.

    I think the Rivet route will be Ayshire Coast Line or Edinburgh Waverly to Glasgow Queen Street via Falkirk High

    For all of y'all who don't know, the expansion pack is like the diesel legends pack or the rhb anniversary pack. There won't be any new locos or extensions or anything like that. It will just use the sos steam locomotives, maybe give them new paint, scenarios and a separate timetable for a route

    the traction is down as steam so most likely not as WCL as that route is set in the 1990s

    It's most likely overlaying steam onto older routes, like WCL, BML, CCL etc with a few 'heritage runs' like Cathcart has for the 31/20 etc.

    I'm not expecting anything more
