What Were The Best Routes Of Each Tsw Generation? A. Tsw1/2020

This is a series of polls gathering public assessment of which were the exemplary routes at each stage of TSW's development. For this purpose I am counting original TSW and TSW 2020 as one generation, since that was really just a rebranding; and Rush Hour as a separate generation since the migration to UE 4.26 was a major core change.

Note also that I have separated the original and upgraded versions of Sand Patch Grade, Southeastern High Speed and Long Island Railroad/Commuter

 

Since I do not have that version, I should not vote.

 

Nice use of the polls! I'll be watching the results with interest.

 

I voted for

North Transpennine.

Tees Valley

East Coastway.

I spent many hours on those routes on TSW, so much joy.

 

In the original TSW, Rapid Transit together with the BR182 was one of the best Routes/Locos, not like today totally broken

 

RSN (far better than MSB), NTP and TVL, the latter two reflecting my BR Blue bias.

 

It was terrible and the worst route in the game by far, even back then.

 

The only routes I'm using of all those are Ruhr-Sieg-Nord and Main-Spessart. Both are fun, but in terms of variety and level of detail, RSN is the clear winner for me

 

East Coastway for me as it’s just a nice route to drive. Made even better when the 313 arrived.

 

Agreed. Would be amazing to see the Keymer branch added so bml and ecw can be merged and given a deserved lighting upgrade

 

East Coastway at the time felt like a massive leap graphically compared with the routes released before that. Still think it holds up well, albeit feels rather short these days.
