    There are very few train games that feature finland. And a lot of them are bad or average.
    I'd like that IF a Finnish dlc is going to be added (or included in the base game on the next tsw) it would have line between jyväskylä-tampere.
    Thats a 180 km ride in real life. Of course it could be shortened by quite a bit.


    Two of many reasons to add that particular line:
    1) There's this city called Jämsä (i live there) about 60km from jyväskylä and 120km from tampere. It has 2 big papermills so that means a lot of switching. And also here is a passenger station.
    2) there's a big hill right after Jämsä station which makes climbing it with a full load of paper very challenging. And after that hill, is this siding that a lot of trains stop due to an oncoming train. So, another start from the bottom of the hill, with 0 speed.

    Just good reasons to add finland to tsw:
    Tampere has a hump yard.
    In finland theres diesel switchers everywhere.
    Pendolino trains.
    Cellulose trains
    5 kinds of locomotives:
    Class sr1, russian freighter, mainly used for freight, as a backup for passenger trains
    Class sr2, mainly used on intercity trains, sometimes freights
    Sr3 (siemens vectron) used a lot on the cellulose trains, very rarely seen in passenger trains
    Dv-12, an old freight loco/switcher.
    Dr-14, used only on yards and on the tampere hump yard.


    I thougt that finland (especially this part of it) would be interesting in tsw because due to the hump yards and papermills and variety of locomotives there is so much to do and explore. Just running to the papermill with the dv-12 and then coming back to Jämsä with the fully loaded cars and connecting the cars to a sr3 loco, theres something to it. (maybe the fact that i live in jämsä).
    In finland we also use similar safety system as in germany.
    But yeah, hope you like my idea. What do you think about it?
