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...
My main question is: how are they going to manage the visible parts of the right route? One of the joys of this line is seeing trains on the other...
I am hugely looking forward to this. 1997 is a good choice as Verkehrsrot was just coming in to replace the (magnificent) 1990s liveries so...
PS4 is fine I think.
Well JD did say they didn't want to release it before Xmas in case there were issues, so fingers crossed it's not far off. It's made me play the...
Yeah, I'm basically at my limit now - I've had to focus TSW3 to almost entirely German routes, because they're all connected, layer-wise.
It's great to see so many superb 110 and n-wagen variants. Not only that, but it's actually where a flaw in creators club becomes an advantage:...
The expansion pack won’t be a new loco - previous EPs have been liveries and scenarios. My guess would be preserved Jubilees and 5Fs with...
We’ve seen a graphic that looks a lot like Partick station which points at the North Clyde Line
Rough station name pronunciation guide for English. Dashes are to break up syllables, they don't represent pauses Bremen: Bray-m'n Neustadt:...
#1 Me #2 they add more rolling stock to routes - more variety, more services, more driving experiences
I have fond memories of them on the local services along the Rhine - the jolt as they notched up, the multicoloured n-Wagen formations you used to...
N-Wagen! A 110! These are huge additions to the DB stock catalogue. Decent route, the layers are promising. Any chance of Addon manager by then?...
To be fair to the timetable team, this is as good as you could do with the available stock - and better than I'd expected. Hopefully we'll see...
RE7 and RB48 - alternating with 425s on the latter.
yeah I was really hoping for content manager. I miss playing a lot of my routes
Yeah, but of stuff that already exists in the TSW canon, the 66 is about it. We'll see I suppose
I'm absolutely not saying there's not - I'm sure there are lots of considerations, licensing too of course, all I'm suggesting is, the utility of...
I get all that - and it's why the general principle - that the rate of new routes is outpacing new trains and something needs to be done. I don't...
Modern (EWS/DBS) 37s would be a quick option too.
I'd say the 66 is a racing certainty to be layered in, but it's hard to see what else...
Br is short for Baureihe, which effectively means class. I agree that there's work that can be done with the existing routes too: many of the...
Yeah that must have been an error I was thinking of the M9? The red one. The coaches you refer to is what I was thinking of, I'm showing my...
I feel like most people who play TSW would agree with at least one of the following statements: 1. The more different types of journey a route...
I've suggested before, but DTG needs to start building *outwards* WRT new UK routes: build where there is already stock available, so you can...
D-Stock as well I suppose
I'd be very intrigued to see what the services are, although as others allude to, beyond the obvious class 66. An earlier era would have allowed...
And yet they are DB...
that would work in that Bescot would allow for freight workings and Wolves would allow for short hops on XC/Avanti/LNWR/etc services
It really needs more than just 323 to Lichfield, 323 to Bromsgrove, 323 to Four Oaks, 323 to Redditch, the odd AI class 66 and a ghost town...
A 170 would certainly make sense.
If it is CrossCity, I hope there's a second train, although it's hard to imagine what it'd be (other than a 66)
