    If so, the S25 section from Potsdamer Platz to Teltow Stadt with the BR 481 must also be included. ;)

    Excellent idea and to make it better extend this to Bitterfeld so that this route can be bundled with Rapid Transit as the Berlin-Wittenberg-Leipzig Route pack for $29.99 (€29.99 Germany Ireland EU Eurozone Price). Own Rapid Transit & DB BR182 DLC then it can do freight services here

    Hopefully, the ODEG (East German Railway Company) will allow the use of the KISS on this route. The travel time is long enough (60 to 90 minutes for the whole route) and high-frequent to interest.

    The weekend of this comment, there are a discussions about a route from/to/through Berlin, with some thinking the route is heading for Frankfurt(Oder). That route requires a lot of landscape from Berlin, with the littlest detail missing noticed. This route is more reasonable. It doesn't require the BR481 to be built to drive and has more options to drive, from regional or freight to high-speed (200km/h).

    I've kind of gone off German routes lately, but I would be interested by a Berlin one, as long as it had drivable lines to both the high and low level platforms at Hauphtbanhof. It is my favourite station in Berlin and I always stay close by because of the transport options (train, tram, bus, U-bahn).
