    Would it be too tryhard to find a nice roundhouse and add my entire range of SP, UP, CSX, NS, including heritage packs, around it? :)

    Mandatory photo attached to keep a sense of on-topic.
    I keep thinking about this train as The New HST: Class 67 Diamond Jubilee on good old Oxford-Paddington during its official career scenario.

    I like the composition but the graphics settings are too low.
    You can recreate scenes fairly easily by creating a free roam with the same time of day and season as this photo.

    Are you man enough? No. You are not man enough. You are little baby man. Go back to little baby man locos, with air-con cabs, fancy traction control and blinky computers. This is iron analogue loco. This is loco for true Soviet Man.

    A USSR built BR 232 on the Wutachtalbahn route.

    BR 232 on the Wutachtalbahn route.

    I love this loco; great sounds, great particles and great detail both inside and out. It's very much a grunt and sweat loco, but watch for wheel slip with heavy trains and use sand.

    The Wutachtalban (Wutach Valley Railway) is a fun route being one of the very few unelectrified German routes in TS. In real life it's part steam heritage railway, part regional railway and part mothballed (though usable). The central section with its loops, spiral tunnel and long steel viaducts was driven by the government's insistence that gradients be no steeper than 1:100, to allow use by heavy military trains.

    Have to correct you.
    In East Germany it was named DR BR 132.
    In Germany it was named DB BR 232.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DR_Class_130_family

    Have seen some in real life in Sassnitz and in Lübeck even that I do not live in Germany.

    I didn't use any BNSF content though? Those are Union Pacific GP9's, not BNSF. I double checked the excluded content list. The GP9 pack isn't on there. As far as I'm concerned my screenshot is fair game.

    This one?
    https://store.steampowered.com/app/208371/Train_Simulator_GP9_Loco_AddOn/
    "This DLC is only available to purchase in the USA."
    It's used in a lot of workshop and it was on my list I collected to get using alternative methods. Then the gates got closed.
    Another item that's missing from the list is the SP Bloody Nose F7, being based on the Great Northern.
    Shame.

    I think its ok to use those US content if it's not containing problematic content for DTG, it's a UP not BNSF, even the Dash 9 on the Horseshoe curve screenshot has BNSF, but since the paint used is NS it's ok.

    The Norfolk Southern Dash 9 also comes with the NS Coal Route, not just the Dash 9 Pack.

    I saw one like that in 1980 in Sassnitz leaving the harbor and driving up to the station.

    I like that red color more than the DB red.
