I came across an ad on Facebook promoting a Humble Bundle package for Train Sim World 6 and in the comments (seen on the mobile app), there seems to be a lot of confusion as to what someone might get as its not entirely clear. The ads themselves, posted by both the official Train Sim World and Humble Bundle Facebook pages, imply that you get the base game and some DLCs. However, it has been noticed that you only get coupons to buy the game for 50% off, something none of the ads on Facebook mention and more so when it reads "Game Bundle". Sadly, I found this out the hard way and took a hole into the wallet as a result for nothing in return. I have since contacted Humble Bundle requesting a refund as I felt the ads are potentially misleading and creating far too much confusion. I made a payment and received nothing other than coupons to buy the game at 50% off for standard, deluxe and special edition. The thought of buying coupons sounds ludicrous. I have come across posts on Reddit describing this exact situation in r/GameDeals, r/HumbleBundles and r/GameBundles where the users are having to explain what each tier contains and despite this, confusion remains all the same. I think you would have had more success funding for CALM via a charity stream rather than the confusing mess that's come out of this Humble Bundle chaos.
I guess you didn't read the details on the link at the bottom before the picture as the details clearly state. "Get half-off coupons for standard, deluxe, and special editions of the main Train Sim World 6 game, plus a wealth of extras, like Diesel Legends of the Great Western, Los Angeles’ San Bernardino line, and the extra festive Holiday Train Pack! Sounds like all you get are 50% off coupons right on the 1st line. Maybe read the full details before you purchase.
The bundle includes the Training Center, which is the base game, and several DLCs. It also has 50% off coupons for the standard, special, and deluxe editions, which are essentially sub-bundles of additional, non-overlapping DLCs. It's all there on the HB site. Awkwardly structured, yes, but hardly a rip-off, as the game is included regardless of whether you use the coupons or not.

The selected charity proceeds go to: Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) I've bought a few of these types of bundles; they are legit and pair with various gaming, 3D Modeling (STL), Software, Music, and book creators to build these bundles. https://www.humblebundle.com/games/train-sim-world-6-first-class-ticket-bundle Basically, you get these DLCs if you pay $15 or more: Then you get coupons for: Note that these are going to be Steam Keys, so if you're looking for another platform, Humble usually doesn't do those. I can answer any questions y'all have.
FYI the ECML route and Flying Scotsman have now been added to this bundle, and there is a slider that allows you to donate all of DTGs portion of the proceeds to CALM if you so wish!
