Today I suggest an expansion for our beloved Training Center, the only fictional route (apart from the holiday express) and the only route that is actually included in the base game of Train Sim World 3 and upwards. The advanced route layout of the new Training Center could among others include: - a new, way larger highspeed loop, which can be used to truly test (on a flat surface!) if a certain train ever manages to run up to 400 km/h - a straight track, which however has an increasing gradient the farther it goes, until it ends on a pair of buffers. lets see which unit makes it to the top! - lots of new buildings and a few new station layouts to keep improving your driving every once in a while without potentionally ruining virtual train traffic on other routes - a few other spread lines which do include various different safety systems and signals permanently set in specific aspects to get a better training in each safety system you want to learn, without having to survive on a route in service mode. It would obviously include a few more tutorials I suppose, but I bet that would be a whole lot more fun!
I can forsee some of the empty areas getting short loops for different power systems. For example the 1200vdc side contact as used from Manchester to Bury by the Class 504, also the 1500vdc overhead system found in East London and the Woodhead Route in the past by classes 306,506,76 and 77.
