Hello everyone! I thought about which routes should appear in Train Sim World 5. Then I came across the Mannheim-Frankfurt (Main) railway line. This route runs from Mannheim main station via Biblis and Groß-Gerau to Frankfurt main station and is 74.8 km long. However, this route also includes a junction to the Frankfurt airport long-distance train station, which is mainly only served by long-distance trains such as the ICE and very rarely by the IC. On this route, a maximum speed of 200 km / h can be achieved with the help of the German train control systems "PZB", "SiFa" and "LZB". In Mannheim there is also a freight yard or a shunting yard that would be perfect for shunting trips. This route is used daily by ICE trains, freight trains, regional trains. There also run S-Bahn trains. !! Below you can see the important details and which trains should be present on this route !! Important details: Length: 74,8 kilometers long / ~46,6 miles long Top speed: 200 kilometers per hour / ~124,3 miles per hour Trains: 1. ICE services are completed with the ICE 1/DB BR 401 (left) and ICE 4/DB BR 412 (right) 2. The services of regional trains are completed with the DB BR 445 (Twindexx) 3. S-Bahn services (S7) are completed with the DB BR 430 4. Freight services are completed with the MRCE BR 193 in MRCE livery (Vectron) If you like my suggestion, give it a like and I would appreciate any ratings or similar in the comments below.
Definitely on my watchlist (among SFS Köln-Rhein/Main and Frankfurt-Aschaffenburg). My wish is to have a network of connected routes and with this one (especially with the upcoming Mannheim-Kaiserslautern) and the two that I mentioned we're looking at 9 (!) routes that would be in a huge network probably exceeding 1000km in track length.
