    Hey guys,

    how many service runs do you see with the new timetable on SKA?

    I see 305.

    In the preview last week I could see something like 369.

    Did they reduce it or am I missing something?

    On the question of US beer from the freezer - that is possible because US beers have an anti-freeze additive - there is a reason US law allows US beer to be sold without disclosing the contents:love:

    Hi
    There are 369 services. I have every single German piece of DLC.
    So thats an extra 124 playable services. There are also BR101 AI services as well.

    That's another thing which annoys me about this pack. The horn and fixes for the SD-40 should have come to Clinchfield first/at the same time. Now, a paid DLC gets the fixes first, while those who bought the actual route (Clinchfield) are once again left waiting for the preservation updates.

    Just tried an ICE run from Cologne. Feels very different - there's a lot of traffic now as there should be, and lots of equipment in the yard. That's what I wanted, and that's what I got. Without that, I wouldn't have bought the pack, including the 423 swap. If your main interest is the UK and US stuff, and you're not enthusiastic about the reskins, the pack is probably not worth it.

    Can't argue with that. If they can update the SD 40 for SPG, they should have done it for CRR. It's promised only when the PC group gets around to it.
    Not good enough, I agree.

    Don't know where you heard that, but it isn't true. However, alcohol is itself an antifreeze, therefore booze doesn't freeze at 32F/0C like water does. But if you try putting your beer in a standard freezer for longer than around 20 minutes, it will start to freeze, since freezer temps usually run 10 to 20 below. Leave it overnight it will burst the bottle! You get beer down to 32 by putting it in a tub of ice.

    If they really did put ethylene glycol in beer, there would be a lot of dead beer drinkers.

    Quite, that's what's meant by " ice cold beer ". No one in their right mind puts a can or bottle of beer in the freezer.

    ( Can we make this the last word on this digression? " )

    Small bug/error I've noticed is on platforms 6/7 at Köln, the PIS boards are displaying information for platform 4/5. Apart from that I really like the pack, and that is coming from someone who really only bought it for the 423 on Köln-Aachen. The service mode is so much more diverse now that it include the DB 101. Watching the AI 101 services drive out of Köln makes me hope that we get either Köln-Düsseldorf or Köln-Koblenz.

    Best Value is 64 km Köln Düsseldorf Duisburg that way SKA and HRR are linked via Köln Düsseldorf Duisburg Line if mergers happen

    Yeah it would be a massive benefit to extend it that extra bit to Duisburg. At 64km that's definitely achievable and even though we don't have extensions yet it is definitely a good idea to design routes that could just fit together without missing links.

    Hi all,

    What DLCs are needed for all possible trains and cargo to appear in this expansion pack?
