    Hello
    I want to make a new suggestion for a DLC, the Siemens Desiro HC in RRX (Rhein Ruhr Express) Livery.
    The train has 4 cars, but here it gets special: The 2 cars in the middle are Bilevel cars, whereas the front and back coaches are like a ,,normal" EMU. It has a top Speed of 160 km/h, but in a 6 car formation, wich is used on the Frankenbahn, it can reach up to 190 km/h.
    They were introduced in December 2018 and replaced DB Doppelstockwagen on the major lines in NRW, theyˋre going up the Rhine to Koblenz and to Aachen in the west, Kassel in the East and Minden in the North. If all the construction works are finished, theyˋĺl introduce a 15 min. intervall between Dortmund and Köln
    I think this train would be a great addition to the game because:

    - There are a lot of NRW Routes in the game and nowadays you cant go to a station on a Mainline between Aachen and Dortmund without spotting at least one of them.

    - It runs on the RE lines 1,4,5, 6 and 11, so it can provide layers on SKA (RE1), HRR (RE1, 6, 11) and RRO (RE4)

    - The train is not red and has a fairly unique design on the in- and outside (but licencing for NX/Abellio can be an issue...)

    I dont know which year RRO is, but its definitly before the RE4 joined the RRX. But It would be perfect for SKA and HRR

    An excellent train to be in game and I'm not sure if they do operate Dinslaken-Duisberg services? If they do then they can go on Duisberg-Oberhausen-Arnhem Railway. Basically the northern extension of HRR

    They go as far as Wesel on the RE 5 via Duisburg , Oberhausen and Dinslaken.

    Yes its definetly before, but RRO isn't incredibly realistic in terms of the used trains anyway (146 on RE4, 422 on RB 48), so it could be an option imo.

    So if they do my suggestion Duisberg-Oberhausen-Emmerich-Arnhem railway these double decker trains must do a rotation with the DB BR 146.2 MSB Push Pull Set for RE5 service.
