I expect they'll be the modern ones with plug doors. Matt said on the stream that they're still WIP - they'[l need to change the seats inside.
Here's a coincidence for you: I took that picture.
I love the four liveries of the 80s-90s. Nice pastel colours, and themed by service.
The picture is in TEE livery though, and some 103s kept that livery until... well they still have it
ICE1 is a must for me. I wanna sit in that panoramic restaurant car while the Rhine goes by!
So my hope/expecation is: 103 TEE + IC in Orienrot (with more than two coach types) 110 OR + MIntgrun n-wagen 363 for people that don't have it...
Exactly yeah.
Yeah, there's not going to be a new loco they haven't mentioned. An extra repaint has precedent though.
In fact, I'd say a WRmz is vital - can't have classic intercities without a restaurant car. It's bad enough missing them with the modern ICs.
A WRmz would be great to see. Apmz and Bvmz etc too
Yes, it will likely be Orientrot IC coaches - hopefully more than just the Avmz and Bpmz this time
The mixed colours thing is where livery designer comes into its own I think - usually that's a hindrance, as you don't want mixed trains of...
From 1962 the 110s were the top locos From 1970 they were made secondary by the introduction of 103s From 1974 they were equalled by 111s From...
Yeah, I definitely remember 110-hauled local services by the late 90s.
That's true, I'd forgotten the blue 155. As for wagons, it should be fine, it wasn't that long ago.
Although given the prestige and likely popularity of this route, it wouldn't be beyond imagination for DTG to throw in a repaint of an existing...
I feel like 155s getting their liveries slightly earlier than reality is a suspension of belief I can cope with if it means a decent amount of...
145s began delivery in 1997, according to Wiki. 152s in 1996. Verkerhrsrot was also introduced around the time, so the 155s wouldn't look out of...
In Intercity trains (which that article seems to be about), but the Am coaches used in D-trains were blue-beige, as were composites. Excellent...
I think the chances of getting both IC and IR are vanishingly small.
Yes, the second class coaches introduced in 1979 were the same as the Bpmz and Bvmz still around, with some older coaches too ("Bm"). This...
The 155 could sneak in I reckon.
. There was. The merging with the local service north of Koblenz only happened after it was privatised.
For Intercity, 2nd class coaches were blue and beige after it was introduced, then the entire sets became Orientrot (era mixing notwithstanding).
There were always some 103s in the TEE livery, so they could be seen with Orientred or pastellblue coaches, and even later liveries. I remember...
To me, this a strength. All sorts of stuff was going on - so more variety is plausible.
Swiss EuroCity services continue to run on the Rhine route, and remain some of the highest quality trains on the route. Starting at Hamburg and,...
Ultimately you to have to work with what we have. We're not in a situtation where every variant of every train is available, and we never will be....
That is a minor difference compared with the massive missed opportunity of not having an ICE on the Rhine route. Half the time you'll be passing...
Agreed completely. It would be a huge shame not to have the ICE as a layer on this.
Verkehrsrot was introduced in 1996, so it just about fits.
I'd like to say it layered into London to Brighton: the liveries are similar enough for it to be used as an AI train at Clapham Junction.
All I can say is: c'mon addons manager!
The mixed colour schemes is where Livery designer comes into its own. While in other repaints it can be a flaw (you never get white and red Dostos...
