I’d like to suggest the Rosenheim to Kufstein railway route for Train Sim World, set around the year 2011. This is part of the Inntalbahn, an important cross-border corridor connecting Germany and Austria. The route is known for its beautiful Alpine scenery, traffic variety, and international operations, making it a perfect candidate for a TSW route. Route Details: Route Length: Approx. 40 km Countries: Germany and Austria Main Stations: Rosenheim (DE) Pfrauendorf (Now closed) Raubling Brannenburg Flintsbach Oberaudorf Kiefersfelden Kufstein (AT) Era: ~2011 Traffic Variety: Passenger Services: DB EuroCity / InterCity long-distance trains (Munich – Verona) DB RegionalBahn / RegionalExpress with the Baureihe 425 Freight Services: Dense international freight traffic from Germany to Italy DB Cargo, ÖBB Rail Cargo Group, and other operators Lots of operational variety — heavy loads, gradients, and tight timetables Scenery & Visual Appeal: Spectacular Alpine mountain scenery Route runs along the Inn River, with valleys and dramatic views Authentic border crossing between Germany and Austria Mix of open landscapes, bridges, and rural stations Highly atmospheric in winter, fog, or dusk lighting Operations & Signaling: Cross-border signaling systems (PZB/LZB in Germany, ÖBB equivalents in Austria) Realistic changeover at Kufstein for international trains Interesting timetables: fast trains overtaking regional and freight Rolling Stock (suggested examples for 2011 era): DB BR 101 (InterCity services) ÖBB 1116 "Taurus" (Eurocity and freight) DB 425 for Regional Services DB BR 185 for freight Eurofima / UIC coaches, Dostos Why This Route? This route offers: Stunning scenery Cross-border operations Dense and varied traffic A nostalgic yet modern experience with iconic European locomotives It’s compact enough to fit within the TSW format, but dense and rich in operational interest. Few routes in TSW feature international operations with realistic signaling changes, and this corridor would fill that gap beautifully.
