Game Update Train Sim World 7 Update Notes – October 15th 2026

Today we have a new core patch going live across all platforms that continues to bring a range of improvements from your shared feedback. Highlights include our first round of loco optimisations for European rolling stock, various fixes to menus and user interface issues, additional scenery work and fixes across the Airedale & Wharfdale network, and more improvements from your feedback on TSW7 core content, including the ICE 4, Tri-Rail Miami and Nürnberg – Würzburg.

The patch will be live from 9am UTC/10am BST - please note that updates typically load quickly, but in some cases may take up to 24-hours to release across each platform.

Please see our full list of highlights and updates below:

Full Changelog
Core

• Fixed an issue causing crashes during the Drag Line Scenario on GWE Remaster
• Fixed the in-game store occasionally not displaying items correctly
• Fixed the AI Guard behaving incorrectly after finishing and immediately starting a new timetable service

Loco Optimisations
Our teams have continued work ensuring your content is optimised, and with this patch we have made reductions to the memory usage for the following rolling stock:

• DB DoSto
• Habbiins
• Kijls 450
• Laaers 560
• Sggmrss
• Shimmns-ttu 722

This should mean less instances where stock appears lower-resolution than intended ("blurry"), and potentially helping ensure a smoother performance as you play. This work will continue with additional locos in future updates.
