    What happens to things (fixes) that have been on the roadmap for months but are not on it now, but not listed as removed from the roadmap?

    Also are the things removed from the roadmap (listed) now not being looked at?

    These questions relate to two bugs that I have been following. One is listed as removed (with no reason why) and one has just vanished.

    I mean the late 80s with the orange and black liveries would be amazing tbh.

    I must say I have not seen a single suggestion of the Glasgow Circle Line in the forums since I joined almost a year ago so I wonder why they decided to make this route. I've seen requstes for the fife circle line though. I assume this line will be set in modern day with the 314s and 385s

    I’m a bit underwhelmed by Cathcart Circle. I must admit I hadn’t heard of it but I’ve just watched a video and it seems a bit boring. What is so special about it that people are getting excited by it? I’ll probably give it a miss but I’m willing to be swayed.

    Also, haven’t Rivet Games already released 1938 stock in the Isle of Wight route? Is this just a reskin?

    So does this mean DTG got the scotrail license? Or have they had it awhile?

    It is +2011. You can check using the code. In "L7" the 7 means a post 2011 route

    Honestly, I have no issue with this. I know of a lot of people who have been craving a Scottish route for a very long time, so it's cool to see them finally getting a route. Also, while I prefer the livery that the fife circle line uses, there is something about this Cathcart Circle Line that interests me more.

    My slight excitement for the route has just nosedived.

    I guessed the next UK route would be Scottish, I had hope for the Edinburgh to Glasgow or something scenic. This seems to be a bit of a slightly drab choice!

    I'm pretty happy we get another british modern electric route, even better because it's using the 25kV OHLE system instead of the 3rd rail.

    Hopefully it will include the and the 385 and 314 :)

    I remember sam and matt saying on a stream some of the licences are game specific i.e they could have the gwr licences on ts but not tsw they would have to reapply for it to be on another game but its great they have it though.

    Ruhr Sieg Nord patching error fix removed from the Roadmap? I assumed this fix was for the broken scenario where you cannot move from the start. I'd this no longer being fixed? The scenario is called Freight Exchange

    Shouldn't it be R7, or is it just a loco-Add-On?

    Well, I'm not big on my Scottish trains but it will be great to see some proper overhead electrics for the UK finally, and the prospect of 2nd Generation EMUs will make it a must-buy for me. If we got a 318 and 320 I must admit, I'll immediately paint them into GA livery in the guise of their four carriage brethren.

    Not sure whether or not I'll buy the 1938 Tube stock, but it does make sense for Rivet to develop it, and Bakerloo was their former haunt so it's a fairly logical addition to the game.

    Either way, I am certainly excited by this roadmap update.

    I assume they are still working on Freight Exchange. These issues were listed separately on the last detailed roadmap.

    I’m interested to see which locos come for the Scottish route as I’ve always quite liked the 380’s and 385’s but the 314 looks great aswell

    Ohh I see. So it'll probably come with the 380s and 385s which wouldn't be the end of the world. The majority of players perfer modern content anyways

    I see a 314 being highly likely with it being very close to the 313.

    It's not, but I would've definitely preferred to have it in the route. We don't even know what we're getting yet, so this is all speculation.

    Exactly my thoughts the sounds are identical and itll only really need a few visual changes aswell.

    If Cathcart Circle is modern day, I’m hoping we see the 314, 320 and 385.

    Another quiet roadmap for North American stuff, a handful of LIRR fixes, Clinchfield moving up 1 spot (But that was already predicted on the article from last week) And Skyhook still quietly developing Cane Creek (Which might not be a bad thing). Maybe in a few months we will see the next NA route and hopefully a loco DLC for the CRR.

    I'd put my money on a 314 as they are already making a 313.

    I guess they'll just stick a photograph on the top and paint it in Scotrail livery.

    No, all it means is that RSN fixes are back in the queue behind LIRR, MSB, RT and who knows what other routes. As the intro said, there's no point discussing fixes until they are completed and awaiting release, and RSN is not a priority right now

    Can I ask why the departure boards for East Coastway are still in the upcoming section. It was confirmed in the last roadmap stream that they were already done and had been handed over to QA?

    Are you waiting for the 313 to be released so you can release them at the same time?

    I must say, I'm not sure what the point is of the "Standard 1938 Stock," which I have to assume means full seven-car trains in Underground red, for Bakerloo. But if the BLL remains unchanged, then the anachronism will just be offputting.

    In general, this announcement is pretty light on new rolling stock. Clinchfield and Arosa we know about, and the ex-BRBP now DLGW has been notorious for some time for not adding anything new. But what really gets my goat is Hamburg-Lubeck which will come only with a 143 reskin and more damn Dostos, and the 182 recycled from HRR (like we need another TRAXX/ES robo-loco). Why the hell couldn't it include the one really distinctive loco on that line, the BR 218? A German mainline diesel with Silberlings would make that route a Day 1 purchase; as it is it's "maybe if I have something left over on a Steam gift card."

    Now we are talking credit where its due, this is the best roadmap I've seen in a while. Very surprised to see the Cathcart circle, very nice to see a acottish route in TSW2 id like to see the class 380 and 385 included with the route.:)

    I’m playing on the Playstation and I have all of my ICE services ready, and never had a crash... But I guess if it’s not in the released stage, it has been taken off because they couldn’t recreate the problem :/

    Actually not, the 182 is the Siemens Eurosprinter family, (Taurus called in Austria), not a Bombardier TRAXX. The 182 in DB livery is a loco add-on for Rapid Transit for passengers, now its for freight I think.

    Yes, that was a typo (which I corrected). But frankly the Eurosprinter and TRAXX families are very, very similar, Siemens and Bombardier doing basically the same thing with slight variations (and the 182 isn't a new loco either. A black reskin of the existing DB version hardly counts.)

    When are we going to get a genuinely new German loco (and not yet another cookie-cutter EMU)?
