    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone has any well known resources where I'd be able to do research on which stock runs on which routes on the German rail network?

    Flickr's been handy as well as a number of attempted google searches for a recent scenario between Koblenz and Frankfurt. But where I've been using DB's live timetable for timings, I find it a pain to see what stock would be running certain services on Regional Express and ICE so that I can use close as possible realistic AI that I would do for my UK based scenarios. I reckon it's the language barrier when searching so if anyone has any good resources or advice on the German Rail network for dummies :), I'd appreciate it.

    Cheers
    Stevie (Get-Geeky)

    That's perfect, what a great site. Bookmarked and will definitely be using that to get some interesting consists together.

    Thanks very much.

    If you use ThirdRails it will lead you to WagonWEB page, where compositions mostly for the fast trains are available, for example:

    So you immediately have both - timetable and composition. Plus of course all other stuff like live map and announcements.

    Is it WagonWEB or VagonWEB? Did they spell it wrong on the app? That's actually funny. LOL

    If you are a dev, may want to fix that.

    It is VagonWeb because the site is in the Czech language - which is the language on the green bit
    So I'm not sure why you think they should change it

    This is why I asked. I assumed it was a V, not a W.

    The site itself has already helped me out tremendously, especially for ICE formations.

    Nope it was literally open a map of Germany and close my eyes and randomly point the finger at a spot ;) (it was actually baden baden where it hit but close enough :) )
