    Same idea as in my other poll, only here with all the Loco add-ons. I would love to know which Loco add-on you like the most.

    Oh well that was easy for me, I feel like with all three loco releases for Tsw2 we have received a high quality product. That is not to say that there were good ones before, but these three raised the bar for me. Hopefully DTG manages to at least keep that level for future locos.

    Aggghhhh... Same problem as the other one... how can I pick just 3? :D

    I like them all - I couldnt even squeeze the 101 in the top 3 even though it should be...

    So I went with:
    • BR Heavy Freight
    • C40-8W
    • Class 465
    But easily the following could/should be in there too:
    • DB BR 101
    • DB BR 363
    • Class 20
    • DB BR 204
    • MP15-DC
    • MP36
    • Class 52
    Again, I get much enjoyment from all the DLC, but again the above are some of my favourites.

    Went with the Heavy Freight Pack and 363, because both bring additional and different gameplay. Can't speak to the widely-praised 101 because I don't own it and don't plan to.

    31, Heavy Freight and the 20... I feel like I'm predictable

    The class 33 is fantastic, but sadly has only appeared once.... Which is a real shame....

    The Class 33 would be one of the few locomotives where I wouldn't mind if DTG recycles it. I'm not a huge fan of West Somerset, but I like this vintage train like the Class 40/45 and so on. I was probably one of the few people who was looking forward to Diesel Legends.

    I have a done a full ranking on what is my favourite/least favourite loco add-ons not just on TSW2 but on TSW as a whole, but for sake of this thread, here's the top 3:

    1.
    BR Heavy Freight Pack (-)
    2. DB BR 363 (-)
    3. Caltrain MP15DC Diesel Switcher* (-)
    =. Caltrain MP36PH-3C 'Baby Bullet'* (-)

    *I put this as a tie because they both came out at a similar time and they both have similar strengths as they both add a whole new dimension on what was an already solid route in my opinion.

    If you want to see the full ranking, see this thread for more and if you want to rank your routes/loco add-ons from worst to best, feel free to do so in the replies below:

    Diesel Legends, Class 465, and Class 33. I would have picked the 47 but that's not an add-on. :):):)

    DB Baureihe 101 RSN 363 & 155 fits the existing German routes I own which are Bahnstrecke Witten/Dortmund-Oberhausen/Duisburg DB Netze name for HRR and Bahnstrecke Hagen Siegen the formal name of RSN. When combined with Bremen Oldenburg together with HRR & RSN you actually populate the route with different trains. On Bremen Oldenburg, the Red 155 from RSN has the working front pantograph switch which you must use for the Zacns & Laaers 560 services. 155 can easily do the 2700t trains on Riesa Dresden with RSN or Bremen Oldenburg provided you are able to adjust the Traction force selector and Tap selector.
    Achievements for it are shared with the Red RSN version. Therefore the proper distance count is the Power Surge 1550 km Power Up level 10 on Baureihe 155
