    Take advantage of exclusive Train Sim World Bundles on the Steam Store, featuring both recent route and locomotives Add-ons for Train Sim World 5 and those from the Train Sim World Compatible catalogue.

    How are these Bundles different?

    These Bundles, exclusive to the Steam Store, feature ‘Complete My Collection’, meaning that if you already own one of the Add-ons within them, you can still get a discount on the rest!

    Bundles feature Add-on content only, meaning you’ll need to own Train Sim World 5 in order to make use of the extra routes and locomotives.

    Looks very interesting. I'll have a look through and see if there are any gaps I can fill. Looks like discounts are at least 30%.

    According to the Picture, the Mannheim Bundle includes the DB BR 101 DLC but not the Hauptstrecke Rhein Ruhr DLC? As a TSW2 DLC it is unfortunately dependent on its Home Route so it is a bit useless if you ask me.

    The gesture is appreciated but nothing really there to coax funds from my Steam Wallet. Ludwig Line needs to be more than 30% off and I can't see Cardiff City in any of the bundles albeit that's going to need to offer at least 60% off to lure me back in.

    With TSW6 likely less than 8 weeks away I have a feeling quite a few people will be hanging on to see what's on offer there.

    What’s stopping these bundles being on different platforms? I know steam seems to be the most lenient with discounts but surely there is a way to bring this to other platforms? The Thomas bundle got released in Xbox, why cant we have something like this?

    Nice bundles. Too sad they are restricted on August and won't stay until the next big Steam Sale. The % of the bundles is less than individual sales in most cases.

    Well, took a stroll through the bundles and unfortunately there's nothing that I need. I could have been tempted by a couple of things, but the discounts on those were only 10/15%, not enough, especially with the Steam Fall Sale just around the corner.

    Shame, but my initial reaction was not borne out by the actual numbers. I was expecting deeper discounts.

    I don't have anything from the Cargo Line Collection Bundle, but at10% off it doesn't really seem worth it.

    Same here. 10% just doesn't cut it. I've a feeling discounts will be higher in the upcoming Steam sale.
