    My suggestion is in Saudi Arabia and would go from Majmaah, 123 miles Northwest of Riyadh, to Qassim a distance of 97.5 miles, with no stops in between. The entire route is just barren desert, but this is the shortest section of the entire railway. The route is operated by Saudi Railway Company (SAR), and includes very modern rolling stock made by CAF, and stations with modern architecture.

    This is interesting this remind me of the
    Intercity Express Train but this can be a good fit for the game

    The only problem is that it's just 97.5 miles of barren desert, but it would still be a good addition. DTG really needs to expand outside of Germany, England, and the U.S.

    In DTG’s live streams, when someone asks for longer routes, Sam always uses a long route just going through barren desert with no stops in it as an example of one that would be easy to make but that nobody would want.

    He’s right, nobody would buy it.

    I would gladly buy it because the rolling stock is one of my favorite trains in the world.

    I very much agree with you. I only like the rolling stock. Nothing else.
