I posted a thread about the Rocky Mountaineer (link here), suggesting the route from North Vancouver to Whistler, but it did not seem very popular. So how about the Banff to Lake Louise section of the 'First Passage to the West' route?

I haven't had the chance to ride it yet, but for such a well known train I am surprised it isn't already available even if it is only seasonal. One day hopefully I will make it up there to do so. I cannot weigh in on one route over the other but am sure either would suffice for me. Seems it could also make a good scenario pack for the Canadian Mountain Pass DLC as well from what I can tell, but not sure the routes are the exactly same nor if it would even stop at Revelstoke so possibly an add on would be needed to get to Kamloops. I am still new to the community but the scenic routes so far are my favorites.
You mean sister game Train Sim 21 Canadian Mountain Pass DLC. Speaking of the Rocky Mountaineer it used to have a Seattle, WA to Vancouver, BC segment till cancelation in 2019-2020. If they did the Rocky Mountaineer in 2018-2019 you would have gotten also the Seattle to Vancouver Leg distance is 170 mi 270 km.
They also plan a trip later this year between Moab and Denver, with runs on the Cane Creek branch line of all places..... https://www.rockymountaineer.com/me...aineer-will-launch-new-train-journey-usa-2021
I voted for the BC Rail route. However before a route of this nature could be contemplated, they absolutely need to sort out the appearance of distant mountains unless Arosa is an anamoly.
Yup, TS21 my apologizes. Switched forums doing a search and missed that. And yes, this would be even better in TSW2!
Absolutely correct because this thing runs on Unreal Engine the same game engine that is known for Gears of War fortnite Battle Royale in Borderlands.
