In the similar stead to the epic Dreden Riesa and Thandte Rampe routes, I would love to see a cross border route to Prague! This would be epic as the buildings in Prague are amazing. Also having S-Bahns for Dresden to Schona and a local Prague S-Bahn would add to the route. If there are any short steam railways one that the player could operate would also be epic. Not sure of one direct to Nymburk.... but there are heaps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esko_Prague Can anyone help with ideas? S2 and S12 both go to Nymburk. Towns could be explorable as well for 'side missions'. Can find some general history of the places. Like my ideas for the French TGV line to Rennes from Paris with the Le Mans track and other places of interest. Talking NPCs too. I know, it's hard, but after collectables I feel we have something good here. Would love to DTG Live where people are having issues with driving a train and place a HELP sign. They could do a video, a photo or text. Then players can help by making a video. They could just record the screen and add voice over to show them how. I feel some people find train driving quite difficult so anything to help them would be great. They lose interest and won't recommend it. But if they could get help it would be excellent. Also maybe a series of tuition videos can be made by developers or 'experts' who drive the real thing. But having a bit of travel/.tourism and history aspects in the game would help catch the interest of people!! Also I'd love some puzzles!!! Like you find a train ticket or a wallet and then want to find the person. Or you want to ask someone a certain question, like on oil paintings etc.... Get the answer and you can proceed to the next step. Hopefully it has an intertwined story where it actually makes sense. Maybe these DLCs can be added later and maybe even have Michael Portillo do some NPC acting.
Please can you read this thread: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/how-to-and-how-not-to-make-a-suggestion.72089/
You will need German Trains that use Czech Name first German second end point is Böhmisch-Mähren Nimburg. For all Czech Railways they don't have Km 0 Prague instead it's Wien Hauptbahnhof & Wien Franz Josef Bahnhof because the Austrians built them when Czech Republic was part of Austria-Hungary (Österreich-Ungarn KkStb netz)
I don't understand. Trains are German operators or Czech Operators? Says Berliner some and others others.
Well the core route is around 150km or 90 miles not including the S-Bahn bits, so not likely to meet DTG’s commercial criteria and the suggestion really needs to be weighed against the LAMP process too.
What I meant is this is that the Czech Republic used to be a part of Austria 100-200 years ago. That is why you have German names for cities in the Czech Republic. Therefore German & Austrian trains use this format on the destination sign the local name of the city and then the German name. That's why I spelt it that way. On German language videos on the train route itself you will hear the German name being used.
True, but still not as long as Kassel Wurzberg. Is it the amount of services that really put pressure on performance on a route? Did they have problems with the Dresden Riesa route because it got too big? I wish the steam trains made it. Thank you for clarifying this. Do you know the route? I search on google and get spam pages on tickets and train times. I wonder if there is a more reliable info. Maybe wikipedia.
I suspect that was an exception as 50% of the route is in long tunnels, 45% in wooded hills and 5% slightly built up around only three major stations. Building a conventional route that length just isn't likely to happen unless DTG change their policies, not within the time budget for each route.
True. I hope we get longer routes. But if a route say to Hakone from Shinjuku was made with around 45 stations, it would be a burden to performance? Especially if there are many frequent services?
