    The frequency of these trains on these routes is too small for the effort. Maybe if more routes with Eurostar services are build.

    Problem with that is Eurostar doesn't serve a whole lot of routes.

    Excellent suggestion! I love the Eurostar fleet, with the exception of the 374. I would like a route dedicated to it, which takes together its services: LGV Nord or some Belgian lines. I want to point out that the TGV PBA (Réseau) and PBKA (Duplex/POS) are not simple reskins of their French counterparts. The PBA is a three-voltage train, which replaces the French 1.5kV DC with the Belgian 3kV DC. The PBKA is a four-voltage train, with both direct current and alternating supplies (1.5, 3kV DC and 15, 25kV AC).

    A good thing would be, that if the e320 would get added or the ICE 3 Neo, both would be extremely similar and would be profitable for both German routes and British routes like high-speed 1 (SEHS). I am a huge fan of the e300 because of it's wonderful acceleration sound and it's designed :)

    I think Dovetail are more likely to do the ICE 3 Neo, which would be used on German routes, Marseille-Avignon and Southeastern High Speed than partner with Eurostar. Therefore, people would be able to make Eurostar liveries on the creators club.

    I think you can use the logo as copy and paste on PC, but I'm not entirely sure.

    I would like to see the Channel Tunnel in the game... Because it's literally half an hour of tunnel. It's so easy for DTG to make.

    Technically, yes. But the Eurostar just goes on to Lille before going anywhere else.

    No not possible! Its an closed system... Only way to use logos that not be offered in the Creatorsclub are via external mods outside the club

    There is no difference on pc or PS5... The only difference between both are seperate mods and tweaks like engine.ini.... the game its self is the same

    Dovetail Games have already said No to this due to licence issue.

    What about other 3rd party companies that make other content?

    DTG are responsible as the publisher, 3rd parties only make content for TSW.

    The unfortunate reality being it won't be possible that way which is a tad disappointing.

    Excellent suggestion, I have always wanted to drive the e300 Eurostar and Thalys in TSW 4. However, it won't be possible due to licensing.
