Suggestion for a new route for TSW2 Tallinn <> Turba with a branch route between Keila and Paldiski (possible shortening Paldiski branch to only Kloogaranna alongside Turba branch, depends on the development) Tallinn <> Tartu (possibly to only shorten to Tapa/Aegviidu <> Tallinn due to length of the route) The purpose: Currently, there is a lack of Baltic routes in the virtual train world. Therefore, my idea was to build an Estonian route. The operator is called ''Elron'', which took over all passenger services in 2014 from Edelaraudtee. This company used to operate with old soviet trains, however, all trains were replaced by Stadler FLIRT's by 2015. They currently have 12 three-car and 6 four-car EMU and 6 two-car, 8 three-car and 6 four-car DEMU. For the Tallinn <> Turba (Paldiski) line, trains are operated by either three-car or four-car EMUs and they can also be coupled sometimes during rush hours. For Tallinn <> Tartu line, all trains are operated by diesel FLIRT's, because as they are intercity routes, they need 1st class. Diesel trains are currently the only ones to have 1st class. I believe both versions of the FLIRT should be reproduced to allow for more diversity around the network. All trains either start or end at Tallinn's Balti Jaam, which is the main train station. Along the way, you will need to pay attention to different situations, as sometimes platforms are only made for one coach (eg. Jaanika on Turba branch). There is many different videos on YouTube with lots of Elron content so if this is considered, you will be able to make a realistic route, I'm sure of that! I will be providing some materials below.
