I reckon they'll do another Austrian route, and if so, it is time for the Tauernbahn: Schwarzach-St. Veit - Villach (or all the way to Tarvisio...
Could it be the Br189? Since it's multimode, it can be rather complex. It would also immediately be appropriate to run on basically every German...
If we have to believe DTG, it is actually the tunnels that take the longest to build. And Koln - Frankfurt has a lot of tunnels... I am kind of...
The main attraction of this route would be the rollercoaster-experience. The gradients are nuts. And the first section from Koln Hbf to Siegburg...
That's true, IRL the freight would be either held at the main line signal or directed to the next available loop track. That kind of advanced...
The 187 is just a multi-purpose freight loco. It can show up at any random German freight train. It's not at all unrealistic to have it here.
Just ran an ICE 1 service starting at Aachen at 7:38. It was absolute chaos! I missed my departure time, firstly because the oncoming freight...
Because the Expert 101 loco substitutes in for the normal 101 loco and those consists don't have the cab car. It is currently not possible for the...
Since the Railpool license exists, it would be cool to get the Railpool 187, which does have the Last Mile Diesel option, as frequently...
Very cool, but it does kinda feel like our IC should have been let past the RE in front of us at Horrem. Now this was cool. After handing the...
That's not really a changeover zone, it's a neutral section. A short section of overhead wire with no electricity flowing through it. You'll see...
This is wrong. Austria uses 15kV almost everywhere. There are only two short sections south of Vienna that use 25 kV. Yes it does. You need to...
Same. I adhered to a 90 kmh speed limit. Flicked on the AFB and just cruised along. But such is the life of freight train drivers. You drive slow...
nice change, sure, but it's also wrong. Just like the Sprinter Groningen / Assen taking the left track on approach to Assen. Also wrong.
Has anyone noticed (some) sprinter services running on the wrong track from Koekange Overloopwissels to Meppel?
It's really nice to have your insights on these matters, e.leerentveld. Do those Nightjet Vectrons stay on the train all the way to Austria, or...
Yeah it's really time DTG bit the bullet and implemented the ETCS system in the game. It functions a bit like LZB without the visible wire so the...
I don't quite understand what the problem is with having to download everything again. Just go make some coffee, take a shower, or mow the grass...
Route hopping will absolutely be added to this, yes. But they are still two different routes and you cannot drive (for example) from Hanau to...
I think you're misunderstanding the scope of this new route. It's not the same as Frankfurt - Fulda, the only shared bit is Frankfurt...
It's a completely new route. There are no 'existing players'.
In terms of Austrian content, Tauernbahn: Schwarzach-St. Veit - Villach would be cool. Go all the way to Tarvisio Boscoverde in Italy (because...
That's just enough to provide for an interesting gameplay experience, I think. Start off at Hbf under PZB, switch to LZB for Flughafen Fernbahnhof...
The addition of the Fernbahnhof, freight bypass and short bit of Schnellfahrstrecke is fantastic news. Massive kudos to DTG for listening to our...
Can you explain this one? Udate doesn’t ring any bell for me.
It doesn't say 'shunting' . It says 'playable Zacns tanker freight' and that's exactly what you got. Those wagons aren't shunted at Onnen IRL...
instead of looking at raw numbers and being angry for no reason, try to think for a little bit before making yourself look like a fool. This...
I think Zwolle - Utrecht would be a great next route to be honest. It's pretty long, but includes a nice mix of traffic and the beautiful Veluwe...
But surely the P-signals on the ‘wrong track’ side should be red? With bi-directional signalling, one direction should be ‘active’ and the other...
I am so impressed by this route. I live in Assen, and when I saw how they represented the station I was simply in awe. It is a 100% copy of the...
That would be nice too; I was just thinking how to expand on what’s already there. Whatever they do, it must include the VIRM. Such an icon of...
I think a good next route would be Zwolle - Amsterdam via Lelystad. It allows re-use of the expensive Zwolle station, freeing up dev time for the...
Berlin - Leipzig should be doable, and is actually a fun route. I've watched a couple of Fuhrerstandsmitfahrten on it. EDIT: scratch that,...
On the topic of cab rider, this channel has more modern videos that show the new flyover and Gateway Gardens station that we won't be getting....
The addition of the Vectron made me so happy! An unexpected present from the DTG team.
A cross-border route isn't very likely. It would need to be quite long, because there aren't any logical start/endpoints in the vicinity of the...
It's just not a very powerful loco. Its 'Dauerleistung' (continuous power) is only 3000 kW where your typical BR 185.2 can do 5600 kW or roughly...
That's some nice investigation work there ;) Detective Mottom21 is on the case!
The route looks great, yes. But IMHO it does not offer much in terms of gameplay, and because it's mostly 60kmh running, there will predominantly...
Bad Bentheim to Onnen with a Br189: [MEDIA] The 189 is the loco I've seen most often on this line. It's very recognizable with its corrugated sides.
we would need ETCS Level 2 and I do not see that happening any time soon.
I believe at this point a deviation from this theme would cause a rift in the space/time continuum.
It's pretty clear that with Frankfurt and Mannheim now done, at some point either the Riedbahn or Bergstrasse will be coming. But I don't think...
Onnen will be quite empty. I suppose they could put some VTG ZACNS on there (we have those in game, right?) and call it a day. I don't forsee a...
lmfao at this topic title. This topic is gonna be so hot it will keep us all warm throughout the winter.
Fully agree. Literally nobody is going to buy this DLC. It will be a massive fail.
What? Is it April Fools yet?
That route is being made by a community member, not by DTG.
Or a Class 70 in Freightliner livery. A staple in TSC, painfully absent in TSW.
