    Hello everyone

    I want to suggest a route that can be busy, challenging, and scenic at the same time.

    It is a route that also happens to have appeared in TS Classic before, and although it might be another route with mountains, this one is very different. Based on experiences in TS Classic, this one was truly amazing to ride—so many possibilities. I personally believe that with where TSW stands now, this route can be taken to a whole new level.

    Extensions


    Ammergau Railway
    Bringing a branch line from Murnau to Oberammergau it's provides additional expansion and, just like Munich HBF, it is a terminal station. The extension is 23.7 km (14.7 mi) long and has 11 station


    Kochelseebahn

    - 35,4 km (22 mi)
    - 7 stations

    The background story about the origin of this line


    The railway line between Munich and Garmisch-Partenkirchen was not built all at once, but developed in stages between 1854 and 1912. Originally intended to support local industry, the line later grew into an important link for tourism and international traffic.

    -1854: Opening of the first section between Munich and Starnberg.

    -1889: Extension of the line to Partenkirchen (then still a separate city) via a branch line from Murnau.

    -1912: Completion of the connection thanks to the opening of the Mittenwaldbahn, which connected Garmisch-Partenkirchen with Innsbruck (Austria).

    - 1925 (February 20): First fully electric train runs the entire route from Munich to Garmisch.

    Absolutely, I would love to see a Munich Route as well as Garmisch-Partenkirchen. I have only been to Germany once and visited both those places.
