Hello, today I want to look at HRR and what could possibly be there for service mode, with the stock we know is coming or is already in preserved collection (or what could make it without getting super unrealistic without license) First Regional traffic: Ingame: S 1 (Solingen-Düsseldorf)-Duisburg-Essen-Bochum-(Dortmund) using BR 422 (VRR Design) in real life and ingame (in standard DB Design, two units) S3 (Oberhausen)-Mühlheim Styrum-Essen-Essen Steele Ost-(Hattingen Mitte) using replacement trains mostly in real life (but although used BR 422 in the past) ingame BR 422 (one unit) RB 33 (Aachen-Mönchengladbach)- Duisburg-Essen using BR 425 in real life and ingame (one unit) first and last train are missing, get parked in Essen during night RE 11 (Mönchengladbach)-Duisburg-Essen-Bochum-(Dortmund-Hamm) changed lines since then (now runs between Düsseldorf and Paderborn) using BR 425 in real life and ingame RE1: (Aachen-Köln-Düsseldorf)-Duisburg-Essen-Bochum-(Dortmund-Hamm) using BR 146 and Dostos (MSB) in real life and ingame RE2: (Düsseldorf)-Duisburg-Essen-(Gelsenkirchen-Münster) using BR 146+Dosto(MSB) in real life and ingame RE6: (Köln Bonn Fluhafen-Köln-)Düsseldorf)-Duisburg-Essen-Bochum-(Dortmund- Minden) using National Express Desiro HC in real life now (until 2019 BR 146+Dosto) ingame BR 146+Dosto (MSB). For info:Until 2016 RE2 ended in Düsseldorf, DTG used Düsseldorf as destination noard here. Giving some info about a set time of the route S 2: Essen-(Gelsenkirchen-Dortmund) using Abellio Flirt in real life ingame BR 422 (one unit). AI only train, visible only in Essen Hbf Possible Additions: S1 short:Essen-Bochum-(Dortmund) using BR 422 in real life. Running as additional services during daytime (change direction in Essen track 10, 2X2units get parked in Essen Depot during night) S6: Essen-(Düsseldorf-Köln-Köln Nippes/Worringen) using BR 422 in real life (2 units) Would be like S2 AI train Only (Track 12) S9: (Wuppertal)-Essen Steele-Essen-Essen West-(Bottrop-Haltern am See) using Abellio Flirt in real life. Could use BR 422 (one unit) like in RRO. Would add a short service in Essen area RE5: (Koblenz-Köln)-Duisburg-(Wesel) using Desiro HC in real life. Until 2019 BR 146+Dosto (MSB) could add more traffic to Duisburg Hbf (AI Only) Fernverkehr Additions: ICE Line 41: (Dortmund)-Bochum-Essen-Duisburg-(Düsseldorf-Köln Deutz-Frankfurt- Aschaffenburg-Nürnberg-München) using BR 403 (HMA) every hour. Some trains start/end in Essen Hbf using the small yard east of the station to change direction ICE Line 42. (Dortmund)-Bochum-Essen-Duisburg-(Düsseldorf-Köln Hbf-Mannheim- Stuttgart-München) using BR 403 (HMA) and ICE 4 (nobody would notice if only ICE 3 would be used) every two hours. Some trains start/end in Essen Hbf (like ICE line 41) Plus some extra trains through the day usng BR 403 (HMA) ICE Line 78: (Amsterdam-Oberhausen)-Duisburg-(Köln-Frankfurt-(Mannheim-Basel)) using BR 406 (SKA) AI Only, every two hours IC Line 30: (Hamburg-Dortmund)-Essen-Duisburg-(Köln-Koblenz-Stuttgart) using BR 101+IC cars in real life (BR101 DLC) every two hours (only few stop in Bochum) IC Line 32: ((Berlin-hannover)-Dortmund)-Bochum-Essen-Duisburg-(Köln-Koblenz- Mannheim-Stuttgart-(München-Österreich)) using BR 101+IC cars (BR101 DLC) Several trains IC Line 35: (Norddeich Mole-Oberhausen)-Duisburg-(Köln-Koblenz-Stuttgart) using BR 101+IC cars (BR 101 DLC) but slowly replaced by IC2. AI Only, every two hours in Duisburg Plus some extra trains through the day using BR 101+IC cars (BR 101 DLC) That's all I could find until now. See you next time
I have mentioned a couple of times that additional Ice traffic would perfectly fit the route, I am hoping that the ice 3 might be added to ai traffic in the future. Scenario maker has implemented pre-made ice lines on that route already.
