1.DLC Hauptstrecke Rhein-Ruhr Extension ( Only for buyers of HRR) This is an extension of the DLC HRR. It should be possible to drive a complete journey from Dortmund Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf. On the one hand with the S1 and on the other hand with long-distance trains and regional trains. The first step of this DLC,should be to extend the route to Dortmund. The S1 stops at the following stations: Bochum-Langendreer West; Bochum-Langendreer; Dortmund-Kley; Dortmund-Oespel; Dortmund Universität; Dortmund-Dorstfeld Süd; Dortmund-Dorstfeld(tunnel stations);Dortmund Hbf. The other trains use a sperate route without stops between Bochum Hbf and Dortmund. This part of the DLC is about 17Km/10,5 miles long. The next point is the extension of the S3 to Hattingen-Mitte. The route runs directly through nature and offers beautiful insights into nature along the river Ruhr. New stations after the stop Essen-Steele Ost are: Essen-Horst; Bochum-Dahlhausen; Hattingen(Ruhr); Hattingen-Mitte(tunnel station). This part of the DLC is about 10Km/6,2 miles long. The third part of the DlC becomes the most demanding part. It`s the S6 from Essen Hbf to Düsseldorf-Derendorf. This route also promises beautiful scenery along the Ruhr. The route connects the metropolises Essen and Düsseldorf via Ratingen without the detour via Duisburg. The S6 stops at the following stations: Essen-Süd; Essen-Stadtwald; Essen-Hügel; Essen-Werden; Kettwig; Kettwig-Stausee; Hösel; Ratingen-Ost; Düsseldorf-Rath; Düsseldorf-Rath Mitte; Düsseldorf-Derendorf. This part of the DLC is about 30Km/18,6 miles long. The last part of the DLC now leads from Oberhausen Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf. The last piece that is still missing between the triangle Duisburg and Mülheim Styrum to Oberhausen should be added. After all it is only 3Km/1,8 miles and the station shouldn`t be so difficult to implement in the game. Now to the important part. The route from Duisburg via Angermund and Düsseldorf Airport to Düsseldorf Hbf. The S1 stops at the following stations: Duisburg-Schlenk; Duisburg-Buchholz; Duisburg-Großenbaum; Duisburg-Rahm; Angermund; Düsseldorf Airport (Düsseldorf Airport Terminal(tunnel station)(S11); Düsseldorf-Unterrath; Düsseldorf-Derendorf; Düsseldorf-Zoo; Düsseldorf-Wehrhahn; Düsseldorf Hbf(S1,S6,S11). The long-distance trains usally run without stopping at the airport at 200 Km/h between Duisburg and Düsseldorf. This means that for the first time DTG hast to take the LZB into account. This part of the DLC is about 20Km/12,4 miles long. The train for this DLC should be the ICE 3(Br 403/406). It can be found at least 4 times an hour on this route. Dortmund and Essen are the final station for many of these trains. This allows additional shunting operations in timetable mode. ICE 523 Dortmund-München - 03:53 ; ICE 525 Dortmund-München - 05:22; ICE 913 Dormund-Stuttgart - 05:50; ICE 527 Dortmund-München - 06:23; ICE 513 Münster-München - 06:34; ICE 815 Dortmund-Frankfurt(Main) - 06:50; ICE 1139 Dortmund-München - 06:55; ICE 915 Münster-Stuttgart - 08:22 (from Essen); ICE 621 Essen-München - 08:40 (from Essen); ICE 623 Essen-München - 09:41 (from Essen); ICE 105 Amsterdam-Basel Bad Bf - 09:57 (from Oberhausen); ICE 625 Essen-München - 10:40 (from Essen); ICE 517 Dortmund-München -10:34; ICE 627 Essen-München - 11:53 (from Essen); ICE 629 Essen-München - 12:41 (from Essen); ICE 519 Dortmund-München - 12:34; ICE 721 Essen-München - 13:53 (from Essen); ICE 1011 Dortmund-Stuttgart - 13:49; ICE 723 Essen-München - 14:41 (from Essen); ICE 125 Amsterdam-Frankfurt(Main) - 14:24 (from Oberhausen); ICE 611 Dortmund-München - 14:35; ICE 725 Essen-München - 15:55 (from Essen); ICE 1013 Dortmund-Stuttgart - 15:51; ICE 1128 München-Frankfurt(Main)- 16:13; ICE 727 Essen-München - 16:53 (from Essen); ICE 127 Amsterdam-Frankfurt(Main) - 16:27 (from Oberhausen); ICE 613 Dortmund-München - 16:35; ICE 729 Essen-München - 17:52 (from Essen); ICE1015 Dortmund-Stuttgart - 17:54; ICE 821 Essen-München - 18:41 (from Essen); ICE 615 Dortmund-München - 18:35; ICE 205 Essen-Basel Bad Bf - 19:51 (from Essen); ICE 221 Amsterdam-Frankfurt(Main) - 20:26 (from Oberhausen); ICE 619 Dortmund-München - 20:56 And the same number of trains in the opposite direction. Some of these listed trains run as ICE4 or Br407, but that shouldn´t be a problem. The extension will result in the following new journeys in Timetable: - Entire route of the S3 from Hattingen-Mitte to Oberhausen Hbf; 40 min to drive full length; 5 new stations -S1 from Dortmund Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf 87 min to drive from Dortmund Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf; 19 new stations -S1 from Essen Hbf to Dortmund Hbf between 6:10; 6:39, - 18:10; 18:39 (Essen-Dortmund every 15min) 40 min to drive from Essen Hbf to Dortmund Hbf; 8 new stations -S1 from Duisburg Hbf to Düsseldorf between 6:15 - 18:15 (Duisburg-Düsseldorf every 20min) 28 min to drive from Duisburg Hbf to Dortmund Hbf; 11 new stations -S11 from Düsseldorf Airport Terminal to Düsseldorf Hbf 5:24 - 19:24 (every 20 min) 19:24 -0:24(every 30) 12 min to drive from Düsseldorf Airport Terminal to Düsseldorf Hbf; 6 new stations -S6 from Essen Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf 04:28 - 19:48 (every 20 min) 19:48 - 23:48 (every 30min) 42 min to drive from Essen Hbf to Düsseldorf Hbf; 14 new stations -RE 11,6,1 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Dortmund Hbf 55 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Dortmund Hbf; 3 new stations -RE 5 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Oberhausen Hbf 24 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Oberhausen Hbf; 3 new stations -RE 2 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Essen Hbf 30 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Essen Hbf; 2 new stations -ICE 3 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Dortmund Hbf 50-65 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Dortmund Hbf; 2 new stations -ICE 3 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Essen Hbf 30 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Essen Hbf; 1 new station -ICE 3 from Düsseldorf Hbf to Oberhausen Hbf 25 min to drive from Düsseldorf Hbf to Oberhausen Hbf; 2 new stations In total, this DLC brings 85 Km of new route, a new Train, the redesgin Br 422 for the S1,S6 and S3. Three new main stations (Düsseldorf Hbf, Oberhausen Hbf and Dortmund Hbf). 32 new S-Bahn stations, of which 5 tunnel stations. The first long-distance train comes to TSW and DTG gets to know the LZB.
Not having a complete journey sucks so much. You can’t have round trips with the same train. your idea is great !
Now we have all the trains. BR 423 for the S11, BR 422 for S1, S3 and S6, BR 406 for the line Amsterdam-Frankfurt, BR 403 for the hourly line Munich-Essen, Dortmund and for the line Basel SBB - Dortmund. The LZB also works in the game, so all that is just missing from DTG is the landscape, the train stations and the routes.
Thanks for the effort, but they stated clearly that route extension is not at their list. It's a good idea and I'd love to see this one, but we do not need to expect that happen anytime soon.
