    The code takes the format of X.ABB-DC 00

    X is a new prefix to the codes and denotes the overall age/original release window of the product. As follows:
    • 1 - Train Sim World/Train Sim World 2020 Release
    • 2 - Train Sim World 2 Release
    • 3 - Train Sim World 3 Release
    A is the region in which the route, loco or train is based. We've covered:
    • C - Switzerland
    • D - Germany
    • F - France
    • G - Great Britain
    • N - North America
    • X - Global
    BB are the traction types employed. Frequently there will only be one traction type in use, in which case we repeat the letter, however this allows for multiple traction variants:
    • A - Steam (both low and high pressure)
    • B - Electric AC
    • C - Electric DC (including Battery)
    • D - Diesel Electric
    • E - Electro-Diesel
    • F - Diesel Mechanical
    • G - Diesel Hydraulic (both Hydrostatic and Hydrokinetic)
    • H - Diesel Steam
    • J - Diesel Pneumatic
    • K - Electric Multi-Current
    • L - Gas Turbine-Electric
    • M - Maglev
    • N - Atomic-Electric (including nuclear fission or fusion based)
    • P - Jet Turbine-Electric (including Turbojet Turbine)
    • Q - Fuel-Cell-Electric (Hydro-Electrolysis)
    • R - Hydrogen-Electric (Hydro-Combustion)
    • S - Hybrid-Electric
    • T - For odd types such as Petrol and Kerosene
    C is quite straight forward - what type of add-on are we referring to:
    • L - Loco
    • R - Route
    • E - Enhancement/Expansion Package
    • W - Wagon/Coach
    D is the year the in which the add-on is set (not the years the route/loco was/is active, the specific year we used to set the release in):
    • 1 - 1825 to 1860
    • 2 - 1861 to 1885
    • 3 - 1886 to 1910
    • 4 - 1911 to 1950
    • 5 - 1951 to 1990
    • 6 -1991 to 2010
    • 7 - 2011
    What do you think the new routes and locomotive are going to be? Share your thoughts and ideas below.

    For the New US Loco which is 3.NBB-L7 01, my best bet is Acela Express for Boston Sprinter Route Add-on.

    Hopefully the new UK route is something we haven't already seen in Train Simulator.

    I have a weird feeling that one of the British routes will be Scottish and the other GEML maybe.
    What I hope for is ECML but I think I am going to have to hope a bit longer for that.

    I think it would not be ECML or WCMl instead it would be either the great eastern mainline or the east anglia mainline as there are no TS or TSW routes about them and they are easy to recreate in complete length.

    You are correct and furthermore the unification between Deutsche Bundesbahn and Deutsche Reichsbahn didn't occur until 1994 to form Deutsche Bahn.

    I think the Rivet Games one is a Scottish Route with a Class 385 (based on the hints) maybe Edinburgh - Glasgow -Alloa
