    Does anybody know where to find the service with the Vectron and the IC coaches from DTGs screenshot? Thanks.

    that is scenario planner or free roam. the railpool vectron is a freight locomotive so you will only be pulling freight.

    The railpool vectron has not been set up to do passenger services, only freight

    Thanks guys then this must have been free roam on the screenshot. I already drove the MRCE with IC coaches.

    They said something about this in the Stream, maybe they'll add some services later but so far only free roam. But the Vectron should work with the IC Coaches, including all functionalities like Coach lights etc. But have to try myself.

    I wonder what happens if i delete the 101 of an IC Timetable service and change it to a Vectron....

    Would be nice to have it substitute in for the 101 services.

    There is a scenario where you are hauling Dostos with it. You get signal checked most of the way.

    There’s definitely an argument for the Vectron, and other leasing company locos to sub in for IC consists at least, even if player activated only & a very small chance for AI.

    There is only really the ES64 U2 loco suitable.

    The MRCE 185.5 and the Railpool 185.6 are freight configured only l.

    It was for service mode where it only pulls freight. Outside of service mode, it can pull passenger coaches.

    it’s not really necessary to talk to people like that who are just trying to help.
    whilst yes, the vectron does do passenger services irl, the tsw4 version is only equipped for freight

    It would have been nice if they added AI Vectron services hauling IC coaches to represent the Prague to Berlin eurocity services as they use similar coaches and Vectrons in real life.

    This one extends to Hamburg as well sometimes, where you'll also find Vectron+IC coaches in the form of a Hamburg-Copenhagen eurocity run by DSB.
