You can submit your screenshot to the thread, and every Friday we will choose which screenshots will go to the loading screens. Shortly after, we will open a new thread and announce the winners. Each week has its own theme which is voted for by the community. Competition Rules: Limit is 2 screenshots per person; 1 screenshot per post. Include in your post the route the screenshot was taken on as well as the name of the train (if applicable). Screenshots must be in a 16:9 resolution, at least 1920x1080 pixels, even better if it’s 4K! Note: you can take 4K screenshots by pressing CTRL+F12 combination, as long as you set Screenshot Quality to High in the game settings. Screenshots must fit the theme of the week, as stated at the beginning of this post. Other Rules: Official content only. Please make sure anything that is not available on the Steam Store or Dovetail Store is not shown in the screenshot. - This means no reshade, repaint mods, track upgrades or workshop routes.

Route: Northern Trans-Pennine Loco(s): Class 101 Browsers seem to be wreaking havoc on the scaling of this 4K image, so for proper viewing, I recommend downloading image, opening in Photos and selecting "View Actual Size". If you have a 4K monitor, you can right-click on it, select "Open Image in New Tab", and hit F11 to go full-screen. This should give you an accurate representation.

Loco: None Route: Main-Spessart Bahn (Port Locomotive Depot) (similar to my first shot... but this pic has midday sun, better colors and details on the buildings and roundtable, and I like the perspective on the tracks in the foreground better)
Hi everyone. Thanks for all the brilliant entries, not that many entries this week so it was tough to choose. Every entry was excellent this week though, we've got a great diversity of shots taken. I have chosen the one that I thought fit the theme, and was liked by all of our team. Congratulations to TheShotte for your fantastic submission, it is a well-deserved win and your submission will appear on the load screens shortly! The votes were clear for next weeks theme and its a theme I have been looking forward to, lets see what you can do! additionally I would like to see if anyone has any new or interesting ideas for themes to include in the votes for future weeks.

Wow! I actually won! Nice! Thank you guys! Although to be perfectly honest, it's not hard to grab a winning shot in a game that looks so good.
Indeed, but at this point, I feel like all the English and German routes have been done twice over, which is why although I felt confident in my 101 shot, wanted to throw in something different to the mix. Also, it's trippy as hell seeing your screenshot on a loading screen. This has been kind of a dream of mine ever since I saw these.
