    Hello to everyone in the community!

    It's been a while since I suggested to the TSW team that they put a kind of google maps under the route map inside the game. I explain why: I always liked to know better the cities served by the routes of the game, so I think that a map would better set the game, making it even more immersive.
    While my suggestion is not used (haha), I ended up going on Google Earth and using their tool called "My Places" to mark the stations and routes and so I ended up traveling, in a way, through Germany, England, the USA, and France.
    Finally, as it helped me, I want to share the file My TSW2 routes around the World that I leave here TSW2 routes around the world. To use, just download at the menu on the left top on the side the find icon and install Google Earth and go to File> Import, and select it to view the routes on the map.

    :D The latest update (Apr 17, 2021) contains Arosa Linie, Clinchfield, Canadian Oakville, and a previous of the Cane Creek and Hauptstrecke Hamburg – Lübeck routes.
    :D The new update (June 06, 2021) contains Cathcart Circle Line route.
    :D The new update (July 09, 2021) contains the upcoming three routes of Rush Hour: Bahnstrecke Riesa - Dresden, Brighton Main Line: London Victoria - Brighton and Northeast Corridor: Boston - Providence.
    :D Update (August 26, 2021): Northeast Corridor: Boston - Providence updated after route launched.
    :D Update (September 10, 2021): Bahnstrecke Riesa - Dresden updated after route launched.
    :D Update (October 05, 2021): Bahnstrecke Riesa - Dresden updated with Meißen extension
    :D Update (October 26, 2021): Horseshoe curve: Altoona to Johnstown
    :D Update (October 26, 2021): Sherman Hill: Laramie to Cheyenne
    ;) In addition, it had already inserted a preview of the West Cornwall Local route
    :D Update (December 08, 2021): Tharandter Rampe: Dresden – Chemnitz
    :D Update (March 12, 2022): Harlem Line: Grand Central Terminal – North White Plains
    :D Update (March 16, 2022): S-Bahn Zentralschweiz: Luzern - Sursee
    :D Update (June 18, 2022): Spirit of Steam: Liverpool Lime Street - Crewe

    Using the DruidsNectar tip below, I transported the routes to Google Maps. Follow the link:
    TSW2 routes around the world

    Also, you can favorite on Steam Guide.
    Some examples:

    I hope you enjoy it.

    Great effort!

    Have you thought about doing a "My Places" map from Google Maps (web version)? It makes it a little more accessible without the need to use Google Earth.

    Sometime ago someone did something similar for TSW (the first version), it appears to have been abandoned, but I still had a link in my own My Places. You can see it here:

    I hope the route is correct because I don't found the TSW2 guide to help me. So I used the Train Simulator guide.
    Your map very help me.

    Thanks! Really looking forward for that route. Based on the screenshots, scenery-wise it's 10/10. Whether I buy it, depends on what the gameplay offers.

    Making the route I was really impressed with the landscape of the place. Marking the routes on the map really makes me more immersed in the game.

    I don't think we know about the branches for that route, so It might be worth waiting for more confirmation first

    As Tank621 said, I'll wait for more information about this route. As soon as I have more information, I will include it on the map.

    And thank you for your visit and suggestions! ;)

    Just a note, Cane Creek needs a small update, as the route goes as far as Thompson Springs.
