    Would be epic to see members of the Dovetail team as actual passengers in Train Sim World 2. Saying hello to Matt, Sam, Natalie, Jamie and the whole crew as they board your train! Maybe have some simple voice lines too for rail-listic immersion ;).

    No thanks, the passengers look weird enough as it is.

    In true TSW fashion you would get five Matts, three Natalies and two Sams on every train. Jamie will have fallen through the track and landed in Train Simulator.

    But how would you say hello to them? Personally maybe, but they won’t be able to hear you cuz their just a line of zeros and ones.

    There would also be copies of each one, along with the default passengers. Imagine Sam as your conductor but then you find Sam again on a seat in another train car, well I didn’t know he can teleport!:D

    I don't really care much about my passengers being based of real people or not, but if your suggestion means we get 4 additional passenger models, it does increase the variety and that's a good thing IMO.

    A few more passenger models would make the stations look less like a scene out of some alternate reality where clones have taken over.

    However I don't know if DTG members would want to do this. After all they created the world so they are technically the gods of it I can imagine a few could and do enjoy lording it over the clones and by bringing themselves down to that level they would lose that. :)

    Or maybe I am just projecting myself when it comes to that second part. :|

    Alternatively do away with passengers altogether. That reduces the amount of complaints about them spawning in odd places, still being on trains in depots, etc. Call it TSW2: COVID Edition and there's also the added bonus of not needing to have loads of services running or AI trains on routes.

    Could be a winner all round!

    Well, I mean saying hello to them in passenger form for like a youtube video or live stream. Not in actual game saying hello lol. And as far as the copies of them as passenger models I'm okay with. Honestly just having them in game as some likely familiar faces would be much appreciated!

    Yes that could happen! But hey! I still would like to see how this would play out.

    Indeed! But if they decide to do this or not, It seems like a niffy idea on the old drawing board :P

    I would be thrilled to see a Sam passenger standing at the station, waiting for the train! And when you stand next to him, he would occasionally mumble "no, no that's all good." and "oh, hold on!" :D

    Would even make sense if he read the newspaper at that time(which is an idea for revamped passengers)

    Probably not. But I believe Jamie mentioned in a stream, that there is a model of him in one of the scenarios/tutorials as a second man in a Loco?
    So that would mean it would not be that far fetched.

    I Can picture Sam reading the newspaper that says "Train Sim World 2 now includes rail-listic Passengers and Trains that may overshoot the stations by your favorite Dovetail Games Members." :D

    Maybe they're quadruplets heading out to the country to visit their grandparents. :D
