Winner's Prize: The winning screenshot will appear in the game as a loading screen for 4 weeks! How To Get shots: Setting up the shot If you are playing on Steam the keys “2” or “3” will offer a selection of pre-set external views, or you can use “8” to get a free camera with more control. If you are playing on console pressing the right joystick will give you a free external camera. Console players can change the camera angle moving the two joysticks, and on Steam the direction keys and mouse will achieve the same results.

Nice pictures bro, but this contest is only related to Train Sim World 2, and not Train Sim World 2020
Hi Nat, apologies if this has been mentioned/addressed before but are next-gen consoles not allowed? I've never taken part before so just want to make sure I'm not wasting my own time.
This is actually the first time that has been asked. I see no problems with using next gen consoles as long as you follow all of the other rules. I will update the info now to include the next gen.
