    If you've had your eye on some of this year's more recent Add-ons, we've got discounts for you!

    Save 20% on London Overground Mildmay line, developed by Incredible Trains! Run the TfL Class 378 through a busy Stratford to Willesden Junction, with plenty of AI traffic from other routes in your collection.

    An extension to this route is included on our MBTA Commuter, then you'll have already received the HSP46 Gameplay Pack completely free! But for those that just want to add this modern diesel locomotive to NEC: Boston - Providence, the pack is now 25% off.

    Layers for TSW6 routes
    [​IMG]

    There are loads of additional layers for the brand-new Train Sim World 6 routes. These add more traffic and gameplay, meaning the routes get busier with more services to operate!

    The West Somerset Railway Add-on, now 50% off, features a relaxing ride along England's longest heritage railway with the Class 47 and 09 diesel locomotives. It has all the beauty and scenery of Riviera Line, but at a slower summer seaside pace.

    It also adds static and AI traffic to Riviera Line, combining with Peak Forest Railway to add short heritage steam services to the timetable.

    [​IMG]

    Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel-Würzburg, now 50% off, is the longest route in Train Sim World! High-speed blasts through tunnels and across valleys are the forte of DB's ICE 1, with other passenger and freight trains filtering down the route.

    This Add-on also adds ICE 1 AI traffic to Leipzig-Dresden.

    Amtrak's Acela® is America's fastest train! Save 60% on one of Train Sim World's most popular loco Add-ons to add services to both Northeast Corridor route Add-ons.

    The Add-on also brings AI traffic to Morristown Line, as well as some short playable depot movements around Sunnyside Yard and in and out of New York Penn Station.

    Another steam sale, brilliant. Before all the steam players, who don’t understand how privileged they, are come at me saying that it’s not in Dovetail’s control when Xbox have sales, I don’t even care anymore. It seems very strange to give one platform so many sales, knowing full well the rest miss out. How about reducing the cost of dlc by a couple of quid on consoles, given that most dlc go on sale within 6 months of them anyway. I mean, Frankfurt S Bahn only came out in May and it’s already half price. Good luck getting a deal close to that on Xbox, and even PlayStation for that matter. I’m not demanding an equal amount of sales, but it’s ludicrous that steam get about 5 massive sales a year, when Xbox will have the base game on sale once every few months. Something really ought to change

    It’s so annoying. I’ve been wanting mittenwaldbahn since it came out but I’m not paying £33, and I suspect the day the sun rises twice will happen before it goes on sale

    Mittenwaldbahn was actually one of the very few routes I bought at full price and I still don’t regret it.

    anyways I’m waiting for scotrail express to go on sale because without a sale it’s quite bad for value

    As a privileged class (PC owners), I will pay only ~$40 for TSW6 Special Edition in my country. Thanks to Uncle Gabe for regional prices and regular sales.I spent almost $700 on upgrading my graphics card from a RX6700XT to a RX9070 and my PC case. You want to pay 3 cents for a device and get games for 5 cents. That doesn't work.

    You clearly haven’t read my message at all have you? If you had, which you should’ve before making such a lazy judgement, I said that I’m aware it’s Microsoft and not dovetail. I also said that I’m not demanding parity, but something should be done

    Well, we on XBox have to wait until Black Friday or Christmas Sale then. Oh wait… there was no Sale on those occasions either last year. Last year there was an addon sale at the end of November though. Maybe only two month to go, keeping fingers crossed.

    No need to be toxic dude. It's literally a discussion about steam sales and you're the one talking about other platforms.

    Yep, I’ve gone overboard there to be fair. But my point still stands that the proportion of steam sales to console sales is ridiculous

    To be honest, this should probably have gone in Announcements and not here. Discussion about sales always leads to cross-platform sniping.
