    This route fits perfectly into TSW, as it can be created well with the rolling stock already in place. In addition, it has long been a wish of the community that the S Bahn berlin or anything at all from the Berlin area comes into the simulator. In my opinion, this can be done best with this route, as it contains both the S-Bahn known for Berlin but also the Regional Express and Regional Bahn trains, which also characterizes the picture on the rails in Berlin. The most challenging part will be to make a realistic timetable for the timetable mode, because especially in the area between Ostkreuz and Charlottenburg the trains run very closely timed, because here four S Bahn lines run on one track (S3, S5, S7, S9) so there is a lot of traffic going on. It will also be difficult to implement freight traffic on this route, since freight traffic only runs between Wuhlheide and Frankfurt (Oder), but there is no freight station in Wuhlheide, only a branch that goes to one. In addition, a EuroCity to Poland departs from Berlin Hauptbahnhof about 3 times a day and also stops in Frankfurt (Oder). However, this train does not run with the BR 101 and also not with the classic Intercity livery. In addition, there are other double-decker cars on this route than the ones that have been in the game so far. But it wouldn't be too bad if the already existing double-decker cars were used, since they don't differ much externally. The 112 also run on the RE1 Line, so it could also be implemented in the Timetable.

    Excellent route indeed and PKP Polish Railways does use a Taurus locomotive EU44 on this route. Frankfurt Am Oder is where the 15kv 16.7hz Sifa PZB Germany Austria 1.95m pantographs voltage boundary to the Polish 3kv DC Shp starts. By the way, competitor Simrail has made this route for PKP Polish Railways using an EU44 Cab for train drivers that are going to Berlin via Frankfurt Am Oder.

    Yeah I know that they use Taurus locomotives, maybe it could be implemented in the game but I dont think they would do it.

    EU44 has an Austrian Cousin 1216 to which DTG can make first provided an Austrian route is made first then this one. Because the EU44 Taurus can be made by Reskinning the OBB 1216 exterior but the cab needs switches for SHP in addition to PZB, LZB ETCS & Sifa.

    Yeah ok, but honestly I must say it wouldn't be too bad (for me) if they don't use the correct Taurus or even the br101
