    I think the last vectron thread started with one sentence. "We need a vectron". So we made progress XD.

    The suggestion is nice though.
    Saw the loco by my self on good trains. Its made for crossing borders. (Depends on configuration). The one in the pic below can be operated in austria, germany, switzerland and italy.

    Try Going to neighboring Austria where ÖBB has them as 1293 001-080 & 1293 173-200 Duisburg-Oberhausen-Arnhem Railway capable & Schnellfahrstrecke Köln-Aachen. 1293 200 has the Nightjet paint.

    Considering DSB have received the 1000th Vectron, maybe a Danish Route would be a great start for adding the Vectrons in? Including the special livery? Maybe København to Ringsted?? Would allow some very nice runs with the vectrons on Doppelstockwagens.

    I've been waiting for the Vectron locomotive since the beginning of the TSW game. This locomotive is universal. It can be used in freight and passenger transport.

    I have created a thread requesting the Vectron - and other locomotives too - , some weeks ago.
    I like this locomotive very much, so would like to have it on the sim too.
    Hopes be available for 2022!

    Probably due to license issues,we will have the DB one first

    And later hopes the MRCE one be available too!

    Finally do not forget there is also a Diesel one!

    Believe it or not the ACS-64 is based off of the Vectron series of engines, so if your looking for a distant cousin or something like that for the time being until they most likely add this the acs-64 would be a nice choice!

    Yes, they have OBB license but for Train Simulator.
    But for TSW2 probably it must require another one.
    For example they have it for BNSF there, but not for TSW2.

    Despite of that I would like to have OBB trains on TSW2 too!

    Hi, on a walk I took a picture of a Vectron locomotive in an interesting ČD Cargo paint.

    Do these CZ 383 ELL BR 193 go on Riesa-Dresden freight like Roderau Decin (Bodenbach) Prag via the Berlin Elsterwerda Coswig Dresden Pieschen line or straight through Rbf Dresden-Freidrichstadt by following RB 31 from Coswig to Dresden Hbf?

    Here's a picture of a Finnish variant of Vectron (Sr3), that I took at Tampere station a few days ago. As it's so widely used, I think that the Vectron could have really good substitution and livery designer potential.

    Actually when the BNSF global license was acquired late last year Matt confirmed that it extended to TSW as well as TS.

    Yes I know that.
    Really great news!
    Look forward for a BNSF route (like Cajon Pass or The Racetrack) as soon as possible.
    But at the time I made that post, it had not being informed yet.

    Vectron is a must tbf! We could see lot of different liveries on it and see it in other countries too! Also dual mode -> 248 could be included if it was an pack which wouldn't be that bad! Hopefully we see some progress on a vectron. The 187 was an improvement for the Traxx' now time for a good Siemens loco!!

    If the Vectron locomotive has made LZB, PZB, ETCS support, it can be used on most railway lines in Europe.
