    Hello everyone,

    It is an idea inspired by TS classic (LGV Rhône-Alpes & Méditerranée Route Extension ) to propose this for TSW6.

    The French high-speed lines are among the most well-known in Europe, I believe its a fantastic idea to give a current route, launched years ago for TSW 2, a real makeover. This idea includes a complete remastering including custom French assets like the overhead lines, tracks, viaducts, trees and plants, grasses, vineyards and more details around the environment.


    And natural objects that dynamic change with the weather, when its dry during the summer months this
    will give it more of a feeling that you are actually in the south of France.


    Not to forget all the new TSW6 features

    - "French" Platform & Train Announcements
    - Signal delays
    - Visual Enhancements
    - Train disruptions
    - Random Events "A forest fire would be pretty cool"

    Expansion

    An extra kilometer is added to the current route. From Avignon towards Lyon, this is already the length of the Classic Train. Although bringing the route to Valence station is also quite a long distance.

    Fully with this, though I’d love to see the Euroduplex make an appearance. I don’t believe the Avelia has even entered service yet.

    Seen one on the classic route yesterday (around Laroche-Migennes, ie ~150km south of Paris), probably doing a test run.

    Great suggestion :D Count on me Ilba8765 ;) As additional stock, I'd think a Réseau/Dasye wold be perfect here. Personally, also find an LGV Rhin-Rhône (Dijon-Belfort) as a good candidate, alongside 2N2(Lyria/InOui) maybe :love:

    PS. ---DMY--- adam asghar the Avelia M will serve almost everywhere, like 2N2!

    The Avelia M hasn’t entered passenger service yet. When it does, there could possibly be issues regarding licensing since it would be a brand new train, which is why DTG may have to wait a year at least possibly before receiving ‘permission’ to add it in the game. Based on observations over the years I’ve played the game.

    I'm Probably a little early with that. For my part they may wait a little bit longer with the TGV M. The current one looks better!

    TGV needs some proper route, and not only with TVM, but also with KVB and alternating between the two :)

    What would be interesting would be to extend the LGV network step by step from what we already have... :love:
