    I was wondering if there was a long(er) term road map.
    I found this one here: https://live.dovetailgames.com/live/train-sim-world/articles/article/tsw2-roadmap-4-may-2021

    From what I can read: In production BR420 and the BR232, great news, cant wait for those :)
    and in planning only one route left: West Cornwall Local: Penzance - Truro & St Ives

    And whats next? There is only one route and no loco left in "planning" section. Then wait for TSW3 for more content?

    Answer : make DLCs as fast as they can before people give up.

    The 3 routes from Rush Hour are also in the roadmap and you didn't mention them. Glasgow Cathcart Circle is also in development, but in the upcoming section (which means it is pretty much done and ready for QA).

    Glasgow is there....it is listed in the 'Upcoming' section. It moved up a stage since the previous roadmap

    Yup, I was speed reading and I guess missed it. I will update the post, thank you.

    Well thank you. So apparently there is not too much I missed. Being located in Germany I was hoping for some more german routes and old rolling stock. But okay the BR 232 and BR 420 are a good start :) Lets see what DTG comes up with in the future.

    If I'm reading the OP's post correctly (and some of the replies), then the real gripe is the time it takes for new DLC to arrive. The irony/frustration here is the removal of Steam Workshop. If the community/third party had the tools to develop new routes there would be no criticism. Yet, we are spoon fed some nonsense about licensing and inability to offer a solution...

    Also they mentioned on a couple roadmap streams back the TSG dlc is still 12 months plus away from being done.

    Yeah, they mention, yeah the spoon that feeds you is shiny and clean, but the plate and spoon is empty. However, there are plenty of Steam Workshop developers waiting for the call, but it never comes...

    They also mentioned on one of these streams they will put new items on the roadmap only if they are ready to be worked on, so they are not in the queue for months on end.
    To avoid the number of "When is X coming out?! It's been on the roadmap for six months!!!" comments.

    I assume we’ll see a few more route dlc’s announced in next few Road Map updates? Here’s hoping anyway as it’s still a little thin on the ground.
