    Today I am suggesting a new way to play Train Sim World. We've seen so many new features from the past 7 years, we have seen the Great Western Railway with Train Sim World 1, the Bakerloo Line and the ICE with Train Sim World 2, you've got the CSX Heavy Haul, the Sand Patch Grade, you've got the modernized timetable for East Coastway without the 171 just adding the 313, you've saw a new UK Country in Train Sim World 2 with the Cathcart Circle Line, you've got Dynamic Weather with Train Sim World 3, Volumetric Clouds and Skies, new lighting system to make it look like the real world, we've got Photo Mode, Free Roam, and Volumetric Fog for Train Sim World 4 but don't forget about PC Editor, Scenario Planner 2.0, Livery Designer 2.0, ease-of-use improvements and so many more including new countries called Austria, and Italy, for Train Sim World 5 we've got Conductor Mode where you have the role of a Train Guard and check the passengers tickets, you've got Route Hopping, you've got Fast Travel, you've got Live Map 2.0, so in the future I would like a new mode called Dispatcher Mode where you can get a role of a Platform Dispatcher to alert the driver to close the doors and depart, what you would need to do is stand in the back or the middle of the train so that the driver can see the dispatch batton, if the train has a guard on it, you must stand on a direction that is currently facing the guard, TRTS means Train Ready to Start, Dispatchers and Guard's most check the trains door interlock light's before you show the driver you're dispatch batton, after the player has done all of the requirements, you can blow the whistle then show the driver your dispatch batton, this would be something new to explore Train Sim World, because that would mean you can play as a driver, passenger, guard, conductor, or a platform dispatcher. Thanks for listening. Don't forget that you'll be teleported to platforms for it to work on a busy station, for example Glasgow Central, London Euston or London Victoria, they can be really busy

    It's another good idea
    Anything Railways can always prove entertaining.
    Though without dumping on it.
    You'd need a way to teleport across platforms, for it to work,in a busy station .
    It's still a solid shout Charlie.

    I've already got that featured on the list now, and accessibility to work between platforms on all stations

    Tbh this feature is would be quite complicated to implement and would get quite boring

    If done it won't be like SCR as it would have to differ per country, yet form watching a tv series on YouTube about how TransPennine express operated back in the day it'll be interested especially if we have to prevent passengers form boarding trains due to capacity or other reasons. Also btw welcome to the forums and great first suggestion.
