    Did you know, that Train Sim World 2 has 68 DLCs in total? Don’t worry if last time you checked the shop, there weren’t as many - I have the same problem, and I checked the shop a minute ago. What happened? TSW 2 has (just think about that!) 19 unlisted DLCs. If you at some point decided to just scroll through TSW on the Steam Database, you probably already know it. These are marked there as “unknown” products, and please let me list them right now:

    1. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 14
    2. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 49
    3. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 50
    4. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 51
    5. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 56
    6. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 57
    7. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 58
    8. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 59
    9. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 60
    10. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 61
    11. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 62
    12. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 63
    13. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 64
    14. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 65
    15. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 66
    16. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 67
    17. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 68
    18. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 69
    19. Train Sim World 2 - DLC 70

    Not very interesting, is it? But today I don’t want to talk about them all, as there is just 1 that interests me. DLCs 49 - 70 were updated on the database recently. By that I mean 3-5 months ago. But there is just the DLC 14, which was last updated… guess when? 10th June 2020, even before the release of TSW2. What was it? Something that was in development but got cancelled? Nothing interesting but just NEC: New York? Those questions are what I want to ask DTG. As the work on it has most likely stopped, could we at least get to know what it was, and why was cancelled?

    Btw, just know that my question about it being NEC: New York was just an example. If it was NEC: New York, it’d come as DLC 2/3 and would be listed right by the Rapid Transit and Great Western Express. This one, however, is located between the Tees Valley Line and Penninsula Corridor, where initially no DLCs were in TSW 2020.

    Oh come on OldVern . It’s plain as mud, it’s all the older rolling stock you wanted. DLC 61 and 56. It’s totally obvious whey they are surely.


    (I haven’t a bleeding clue what the original post is trying to tell us, canned dlc or 21 new ones coming :|:cool:)

    My guess would be beta test or private testing releases. Steam would have these on a database somewhere, but obviously no "public facing" pages for them

    My guess is 14 is the preserved TSW2 NEC which never made it, 49-51 maybe something to do with RH, and the rest are reserved spaces for future DLC and will get used this year and next.

    Maybe I am not understanding something right, but for me there is nothing obvious about these DLCs.


    I might be wrong, but if it was NEC, it wouldn’t have a space between Tees Valley Line and Penninsula Corridor, where there were no DLCs initially. NEC would stand right by Rapid Transit and Great Western Express.

    I expected that when making this ;)

    I just think that many of us here simply miss good old NEC... ;)

    A thread that just proves some have way too much time on hand……

    Dear reader, the cancelled DLC 14 was the route you most want in TSW2. That route you love the most, the one you dream of every time you load the game, look at the roadmap, or even think about trains for a second. You see it every night as you drift off to sleep and you yearn for that morning when you wake up and can drive your favourite trains on it. It’s never coming. It was cancelled and consigned to the big bin of abandoned projects labelled ‘Do not resuscitate’ and will reside there forevermore. You should feel very very sad.

    Surely you don't consider this unusual?
