    As the title says,
    Has there ever been a suggestion that made it’s way onto the store in tsw, 2020, 2 or 3 doesn’t have to be the exact same as the route/ train but even somewhat close

    There are a few that I believe have been influenced by community suggestions. For a good while it seemed, London to Brighton was a highly suggested route for the game. Lo and behold, October of 2021 saw the release of the Brighton Mainline, from London Victoria to Brighton.

    The Bakerloo Line was inspired by numerous suggestions for a London Underground route. While the Bakerloo probably wasn't the most suggested, it was still a response to the many people who wanted some sort of version of the Tube.

    Cajon Pass may have been another one, although maybe not, since you don't really need to read suggestions on a forum to know that it is one of the most popular routes among American railfans.

    To be honest I think London to Brighton was probably nailed on regardless of the suggestions forum, it's an obvious route for TSW for many reasons. Best to view that forum section as a way to learn about interesting rail routes around the world imo, I'm cynical but I can't imagine the small number of devs are trawling the posts for inspiration)

    From the first 5 pages of suggestions, I found:

    West Somerset Railway

    Does this count as Cathcart Circle?

    DB BR 182
    https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/taurus.4954/

    In short, yes, but they take a few years to come to fruition. Perhaps times have changed, but I remain optimistic as ever.
    I have tried to avoid stuff that has been said in the posts above.

    From that post is the Austrian version of 182 the 1116/1016. These are seen on the following TSW 3 routes SKA Main Spessart Bahn (Freight & Nightjet) HMA (EC Railjet and Nightjet) and SFS Hannover Wurzburg Nightjet only.Riesa Dresden the 1216
    In terms of my suggestion being made, it's the Appenweier Strasbourg Railway TSW 2 forum post-March 5 2021 which became the TSC Strasbourg-Karlsrule route
