    In Friedrichstadt I have noticed the good old "shunting signal showing Sh1, yet, the 2000Hz magnet is still active" bug. Maybe this is stopping you?

    The other thing is the yet to be fixed problem with basically all 294 services that still use Sh1 all along the way and would therfore also have many 2000Hz magnet traps on its way...

    Could that be it?

    If you encounter them on a main signal (Hp0 + Sh1) you always need to press "Befehl" while you drive over the active 2000Hz magnet. Otherwise you will be stopped:D

    Saying this, its still a bug that you are actually let onto the main route with shunting aspects:(

    Br442 irl should cab windows open. Also all I can find is intermodal, car and tanker freight jobs on this route and sorry a few manifests. I thought there was more variety of freight on this route. Also why is there so many shunting signals on the full length runs with the freight.

    Anyone else who has tried this service and couldn’t complete it because of stuck trains , the service an hour later at 1512 from Dresden to Leipzig on the talent 2 works with no issues , and is a good run . I did get stopped at a red signal not far from Reisa for a minute or two and did wonder if this was the random signal delay in action , but I don’t know for sure! However it’s a nice run .

    filed a ticket for this... I mean, yes, ideally you dont get into Sifa Zw. situation, but then, if it should be recoverable, then... it should be :D ... and yes, I know from Expert 101 that Sifa Zw. can be a rough mofo, but unlike PZB Zw., if you recover quickly and press Q (acknowledge), you should be able to recover while still in motion... a shame cos current 143 is otherwise the best version of the loco... oh man, how I wish this whole family of locos were without major bugs :D (114 works for me kinda fine, 112 has that e-brake / blended brake issue)

    Hello,

    I tried my own scenario where I had no trains on the route, only at Dresden and Leipzig HBF. Immediately after Dresden HBF the textures got blurry and stayed until Leipzig HBF. Short before Leipzig something happened and the textures were clear again. Interesting!
    This happened sometimes before, too.
    Xbox Series X and own Scenario: Dresden to Leipzig ICE route, no trains on the route except on the two main stations.

    Perhaps those reports help the devs in future performance updates. I am not an expert at all but I think it's a thing of the Unreal Engine and the Xbox X having too less ram for a game like this.

    I start seeing it like this: Better the Engine pushes down the textures, than letting the game crash without a sign. I prefer playing with washed textures than crashing the game at will. Ok the best way would be running everything fine.

    If I remember correctly Microsoft Flight Simulator X had a big issue with ram using. This game crashed without a warning before

    There is wrong signalling around neucoswig.
    There should be "13" signalled, but it is not. upload_2025-10-10_0-21-41.png ¨ upload_2025-10-10_0-21-58.png

    In driver mode (ticket check), I was not offered any tickets to check during the entire trip. I completed the schedule, and it counts toward the mastery and 0 XP.

    The journey mode chapter "Yard Work Is Hard Work" has a blank entry and cannot be completed. Screenshot attached. My platform is PS5. Can this please be patched? Thank you!

    Well..., I just completed the timetabe "switching at Engelsdorf" with the DB BR 204. I just started it in Journey mode and there I was, in the cab of it. Very strange, the DB BR 204 should not be playable on this route?

    It's beginning to look as if the hotfix to the fault issue has somehow corrupted the Journey Mode on several routes.

    You couldn't make this stuff up.

    Currently, ICE services (1559/1597/...) The trains from Leipzig to Dresden are broken, as it is impossible to uncouple two trains at the beginning of the trip. The uncoupling function does not work on the BR411.

    Did you know that you cannot drive the one Talent 2 on the Dresden-Leipzig route?

    This is because one Talent 2 was never equipped with a pantograph, while the other Talent 2 has a pantograph, and this error is actually quite old.

    The fact that DTG has not even fixed such a serious error shows once again how DTG deals with bug fixes.

    Namely, to fix as few errors as possible, as long as the customers have paid their money!

    DTG is really the laziest game developer I know.

    SJAY_ONE Did you set the brakes to "emergency braking" before uncoupling the train? You have to set the brakes back to "full braking" after uncoupling.

    I've tried different ways, including your method, from both booths. The result is negative. If you can detach on this train, please describe the procedure.

    In the end, I succeeded. The main condition was the position of the reverse in the "Neutral" mode
    . It is a pity that the procedure was not described anywhere, including in training. Thank you.

    mine was fine... this bug used to be present on Koln Aachen route, direction Koln, where one unit would spawn without panto... as far as I played, both units were taking power and braking as well... I am playing on PC/Steam

    At the beginning, I switched directly to the back and uncoupled, and then, when I was back at the front, I prepared the train and opened the doors, so I never had this problem with the directional switch.
    Yes, that's true, it's a shame it wasn't addressed in the tutorial.

    Ich bin zu Beginn direkt nach hinten geswitcht und habe entkoppelt und danach als ich wieder vorne war den Zug vorbereitet und die Türen geöffnet, dass ich dieses Problem mit dem Richtungswänder nie hatte.
    Ja das stimmt, es ist schade, dass es in den Tutoriell nicht zum Thema gemacht wurde.

    It seems that there is something wrong with lods of the signals, especially at Leipzig train yard.

    Also the auto carrier wagon has a bug with lower plates between the wagons. The plates are hanging underneath the train.

    that reminds me that maybe I havent encountered this problem cos I only ran services out of Dresden so far, not the other way (if you remember, Koln Aachen also had the problem where all Talent 2 services out of Aachen to Koln had nonexistent panto... it got fixed... only took em like 2-3yrs :D ) ... will check this myself when I get home :D

    sorry for dual posts, but I just remembered sth, a workaround that worked wonders at Koln Aachen before it got an actual fix - if you spawn on foot at Leipzig Hbf at appropriate time (timetable mode), like shortly before a service, and then take over the train, it is correct and you can drive the service... not sure if you get a medal tho... no idea if this would work here, but on Koln Aachen it used to work

    Timetable Service RE18 (18404) from Dresden to Cottbus has a Red Signal Violation message before you even start it.
    18404 b.png

    After beginning, the service quits.

    I have submitted a ticket request for this error.

    Can you explain this a bit more? I'm still confused how to do it. I tried uncoupling in the back cab and the trains are still stuck together.

    EDIT: Found a video that shows you how to do it


    This is definitely much easier on PC with having the shortcut to switch to the back cab. Takes a lot longer to sort on console! Not helped by having the 'Press X to uncouple' that will say it's worked when it hasn't if you just put the front cab in forward.

    DTG should patch all this. I dont want those silly "faults" which are a joke compared to the expert 101. Also route related errors in showing the wrong speed is a absolute noGo.

    For me all TSW addons will be sales only. Quality doesnt seem to matter.

    Does all this get patched? An answer would be apreciated.

    Steam
    BR101

    Confirmed on Ic2440 and IC2442
    Possibly all others as well.

    57km after departing Riesa for Leipzig
    The END mark started flashing the instant we entered the LZB section.

    After that, the LZB restriction warning distance display had a bug, causing the speed to be reduced arbitrarily.
    The locomotive's direction on the map is incorrect.
    Because of this, I suspect the programming makes it appear as if we're traveling in reverse through the LZB section.

    Reference
    Other streamers are experiencing the same problem.

    Leipzig to Dresden service IC ( 2449 ) 7.28 departure arriving at Dresden 8.36. I have driven for 1.5 hours in a DB 101 to reach Dresden, only to be greeted by a red signal just outside the main station. There are no trains ahead of me and trains behind, all at red signals. I have waited and waited, but signal stays RED. Has anyone else had this problem ?
    Thanks in advance.

    The FIS/PIS is broken on all 1442 from rapid Transit. At least you can choose!! On new talent 2 (442 not 1442) from Dresden Leipzig it doesn’t let you choose at all. But on 1442 you can choose but it doesn’t show anything on the train. The 1442 talent 2 for s bahn leipzig (the talent 2 from rapid transit add on)

    At some stations and with some trains (in this case the new Talent 2 @Dresden Hbf but I experienced this with a few others, too) it is impossible to enter or leave the train via the passenger doors. Only can get through the drivers door.
    If you try to get through a passenger door you just walk against an invisible wall.

    Bad spacing on signals preventing you from stopping in time for a red
