    Welcome back to the Train Simulator Screenshot Contest!

    This week's theme is: Christmas and Holiday Time

    This is the final Screenshot competition of the year, vote for you next theme for next year!


    You can vote for next week's theme in the poll attached to this thread. What is your choice?

    Follow us on Instagram (instagram.com/trainsim) to see your screenshots featured on our feed!

    How does it work?

    You can submit your screenshot to the thread, and every Monday we will choose which screenshots will go to the loading screens. Shortly after, we will open a new thread and announce the winners. Each week has its own theme which is voted for by the community.

    Competition Rules:
    • Limit is 2 screenshots per person; 1 screenshot per post.
    • Include in your post the route the screenshot was taken on as well as the name of the train (if applicable).
    • Screenshots must be in a 16:9 resolution, at least 1920x1080 pixels.
    • Screenshots must fit the theme of the week, as stated at the beginning of this post.
    • In order to qualify for the competition, screenshots must be taken from products published by Dovetail Games that are currently on sale.
    Other Rules:

    • Official content only. Please make sure anything that is not available on the Steam Store or Dovetail Store is not shown in the screenshot. - This means no reshade, repaint mods, track upgrades or workshop routes.
    • Your entry may be disqualified if it is deemed to not follow these rules. Please limit chat to only when absolutely necessary.
    • Competition closes at mid-day Monday (UK time). The winner will be chosen every Monday.
    • Winner's Prize: The winning screenshot will appear in the game as a loading screen for 1 week!
    (Please Note since the new update which changes loading times we have decided to change it to 1 week)


    T&C:
    • Please refer the terms and conditions for this competition here:
    https://dovetailgames.com/competition-terms-and-conditions/
    • Note that by submitting an entry to this contest, you are consenting to us using your screenshot as a loading screen and showing it on our social media channels (such as Instagram)

    Screenshot_Clinchfield Railroad - Elkhorn City to St Paul_36.97545--82.29931_10-46-14.jpg
    November, 1992. For the 50th Anniversary of the annual Santa Train that runs along the Clinchfield Railroad, CSX had a special guest come an visit. UP Challenger 3985 was used for this special occasion, and was decorated as Clinchfield 676 for the excursion. Here, the Challenger comes thru Dante, passing by the iconic church in town.

    Odd timing for this theme. I assume the winning shot will probably have a Christmas theme, but it won't go live until some time after Christmas!

    Would be nice if they could just pick the most liked or something. Or nominate cscarpenter the jury, like with the unofficial.

    They stopped doing that a few years ago as a few members would make fake accounts to boost their like count.

    I think we have the winner here. I can't see how you'd top this as a seasonal screenshot, so I'll bow out now. Great shot cscarpenter.

    BTW, What pack has those Christmas objects?

    Thanks for your kind comments IronBladder, much appreciated.
    Not counting my chickens just yet, there is another shot already posted which I personally like and we still have the weekend to go.
    I only found the Christmas Assets last night after I went searching for some to create that shot.
    You can find them here.
    Best wishes

    Heritage Ge 6/6ii 704 runs a santa special over the Langwieser Viaduct on the Arosa Line, wonder if the passengers have noticed they have aquired some low flying company?

    Not sure what you are trying to say?
    Post #20 by Ironbladder clearly references the cscarpenter shot
    https://forums.dovetailgames.com/attachments/103745/
    As for your trying to buy vote comment, don't get where you are coming from.
    Who are you aiming that comment at and why?
    As you say yourself if you amass 50 likes it does not have any say on whether you win or not.
    How can you buy a vote when there are no votes to buy?
