    The origins of the route were established in 1840 by the Berlin-Anhalt Railway Company, who constructed a railway line between Berlin and Köthen, via Jüterborg and Dessau. The Berlin-Anhalt Railway Company was considered to be one of the most important railway companies in Germany and one of the first long-distance railways in the country.

    The route regularly carried at least 30 long-distance passenger trains in each direction daily, and was a major intersection for services running between Germany’s major cities and Eastern European countries, including the Czech Republic and Austria. During the GDR era, traffic on the route increased significantly as much freight was then carried by rail.

    The 115km (71 mile) route from Berlin Hbf to Wittenberg for Train Sim world 2, also features the unopened extension to Berlin Brandenburg Airport, Line S25 from Teltow to Potsdamer Platz, and sections of the North-South S-Bahn Tunnel in Berlin.

    Many of Berlin’s popular attractions also feature prominently, alongside freight lines at Lutherstadt Wittenberg Ost, Niedergörsdorf, Jüterbog and Luckenwalde, Rangierszenarien freight depot, the Container depot at Großbeeren and locomotive depot at Lutherstadt Wittenberg.

    The seven-car BR 411 ‘ICE-T’ was the first tilting train to enter service on the German railway network, and now joins the stable of ICE trains for Train Sim World. The ICE-T was developed by Siemens in parallel with the ICE 3 and ICE TD in the early 1990s,

    these will run 31 ICE services along the route

    The class 112 from Deutsche Bahn (DB) is an electric locomotive which, was first delivered in 1992 to DB. Overall 90 machines were produced and delivered from 1992 to 1994.

    these will run 108 RE services across the route


    [​IMG]
    The DB BR 101 was built between 1996-1999 & have a maximum speed of 220 km/h. They operate DB InterCity services across Germany as well as operating EuroCity services to other countries. They were first featured in Train Simulator in 2009 in the Railworks route Hagen - Siegen.

    these will run 95 IC services across the route

    The 151 series is a series of electric locomotives for heavy freight train service delivered to the Deutsche Bundesbahn between 1972 and 1978. It was developed on the basis of experience with the standard locomotive construction program. In the vehicle settings register, the vehicles were assigned the 6151 series.

    these will run 41 freight services

    [​IMG]
    The ICE 2 is the second series of German high-speed trains and one of six in the Intercity-Express family since 1995. The ICE 2 (half-)trains are even closer to a conventional push–pull train than the ICE 1, because each train consists of only one locomotive (Class 402, called powerhead), six passenger cars (Classes 805 to 807) and a cab car (Class 808).

    these will substitute for the ICE services for the ICE T

    [​IMG]
    The 407 series is a series of high-speed trains in the ICE fleet of Deutsche Bahn. The manufacturer of these trains, Siemens Rail Systems, calls them Velaro D (D for Germany). The trains were assigned to the ICE 3 fleet by Deutsche Bahn and referred to as "ICE 3 (MS)" or "new ICE 3". They are very similar to the ICE 3M built by Siemens and Bombardier, but a new design because the sole manufacturer Siemens

    these will also subsitute for the ICE T with 31 services

    similar to the 363 and 204 the 294 is designed for shunting coaches, tankers , and other materials in germany

    these will run 21 shunting duties in the yards and shunt ice and ic and doppelstockwagen coaches


    this will be quite a heafty route with a lot of traction so if dtg want to they can go from 24.99 to 29.99 but i would keep it at 24.99 as normal price

    The BR 407 doesn't run on this line. The 407 is solely used for international traffic between Germany and France.
    As a replacement, you can include the BR 4110 (Stadler KISS) running the IC 2 service between Rostock and Dresden.

    PS: The ICE T was not the first tilting train in Germany. The first trains were the VT 24 and the prototypes of the BR 614. The first successful use of tilting systems could be found in the BR 610, the less successful successor BR 611 and the resulting new construction of the BR 612. One year after the BR 612 the ICE T entered service.

    Those were some neccesary corrections, but otherwise this could be a fun suggestion. Definetely with the BR 151, 294, ICE-T, ICE 2 and KISS units, which would all add something entirely new to the game, though most of them would probably have to be DLC.

    Excellent idea but one of the trains doesn't belong here the DB BR407 because you're more likely to see it on HMA has the Paris Gare L'Est to München Hbf via Appenweier-Strasbourg & Stuttgart Augsburg Railway lines. DB BR151 has two variations one is your roofers in Chains but the other coupler is a C-Akv coupler for 6 Kiloton Iron Ore Trains that Require PZB Mode U 55 km/h 35 mph on a yellow signal

    Nice idea, but at this point we should push it until Leipzig, and then maybe in future DTG can join it up with he rest of eastern German route
