    After finishing my Hamburg - Padborg suggestion (which you can read here: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/suggestion-hamburg-to-padborg.46081/)
    I realized that a DSB EG as freight loco would be nice, but since this would come with a seperate route and we'd have to wait endelss, I make another suggestion without fancy LCD displays and a nice AFB and shiny Reverser. The DB BR 151. The BR 151 would come with with the Falns 151 and. On the opposite to the 155, this 151 would have a UIC unicupler to be able to pull the heavy trains filled with ore which can be as heavy as 6000 tons. As route I thought of MSB, and yes, MSB would have 2 DLC'S then, right? Yes, the same as RSN, so?
    I'll add a picture of the 151 with those unicupler below 2021-10-04 21_07_56-DB-Baureihe 151 - Wikiwand.png
    Let me know what you think, I really want to hear your opinions, just write them down, I am looking forward to interact with you.

    I've always loved the look of the BR 151, but then again, I also love the look of the BR 182, which some forum users think looks hideous.

    Opinions differ I guess :).

    All in all, the BR 151 would be a great addition to the game, and I'd love the kind of heavy freight gameplay it could bring.

    It's not allowed to do passenger anymore IIRC due to door control regulations

    As I slightly touched upon that in my Main-Weser-Bahn in the '90s suggestion: Yes the 151 can do passenger services aswell. This wasn't really that common, but in the '90s with the DB pretty much anything went if there was a need for it. See the pictures below for evidence.

    As someone pointed out in the previous comment, the 151 isn't seen on passenger services anymore, although I can't confirm whether that is due to door opening regulations. If you want to see a DB BR 151 on a passenger service, you'd have to go back to the '90s (with for example my previously mentioned suggestion ;)).

    DB BR151 doesn't use Falns coal wagons instead it uses Faals Falrrs Iron Ore wagons with C-Akv couplers warning triangles so is the DB BR189. Since Riesa-Dresden formerly Deutsche Reichsbahn DDR this must be equipped with working brake modes. C-Akv coupler trains need P brake mode PZB Mode U 55 kmh 35 mph on a Yellow signal due to 6 Kiloton weight.

    Thank you. If one would've read the suggestion you'd see suggested this for the same reason. 6KT trains with double 151s
