    Welcome back to the Train Simulator Screenshot Contest!

    This week's theme is: Real Landmarks





    You can vote for next week's theme in the poll attached to this thread. What is your choice?

    Follow us on Instagram (instagram.com/trainsim) to see your screenshots featured on our feed!

    How does it work?

    You can submit your screenshot to the thread, and every Monday we will choose which screenshots will go to the loading screens. Shortly after, we will open a new thread and announce the winners. Each week has its own theme which is voted for by the community.

    Competition Rules:
    • Limit is 2 screenshots per person; 1 screenshot per post.
    • Include in your post the route the screenshot was taken on as well as the name of the train (if applicable).
    • Screenshots must be in a 16:9 resolution, at least 1920x1080 pixels.
    • Screenshots must fit the theme of the week, as stated at the beginning of this post.
    • In order to qualify for the competition, screenshots must be taken from products published by Dovetail Games that are currently on sale.
    Other Rules:

    • Official content only. Please make sure anything that is not available on the Steam Store or Dovetail Store is not shown in the screenshot. - This means no reshade, repaint mods, track upgrades or workshop routes.
    • Your entry may be disqualified if it is deemed to not follow these rules. Please limit chat to only when absolutely necessary.
    • Competition closes at mid-day Monday (UK time). The winner will be chosen every Monday.
    • Winner's Prize: The winning screenshot will appear in the game as a loading screen for 1 week!
    (Please Note since the new update which changes loading times we have decided to change it to 1 week)


    T&C:
    • Please refer the terms and conditions for this competition here:
    https://dovetailgames.com/competition-terms-and-conditions/
    • Note that by submitting an entry to this contest, you are consenting to us using your screenshot as a loading screen and showing it on our social media channels (such as Instagram)

    Built nearly a hundred years ago, the old Seaboard Airline station in Fort Lauderdale, Florida still stands today and is now owned by Amtrak. Amtrak train 91, the Silver Star, is nearly ready for departure; and it has the Phase 3 Amtrak 50th Anniversary unit #160 leading.

    Miami to West Palm Beach, Amtrak P42DC

    Being bit of a reactionist this week, but The Aussie Don reminded me of this. NEC, ACS-64, Scenario 6 (Vermonter to NY Penn).
    I didn't like zoom earlier as it doesn't actually improve textures, often leading to awkward pics, however it may have been improved, and with good view distance, details and ideally 4K (not me), it can be very useful.

    Just be aware it doesn't matter how many likes you get, it is all down to which screenshot is chosen by DTG Jamie, DTG Alex etc. as the shot they would like to see on the loading screens.
    There have been weeks when I have won with 2 votes because I posted last minute before the comp ended whereas some of the early postings had 8 - 10 votes.
    The voting aspect is purely for the rest of the community to appreciate a fellow enthusiasts offerings.
    Either way congrats on your first win, enjoy it.

    Purely coincidence that the winning shots have also attracted a lot of likes.
    When you stop to think, I suppose that makes sense.
    If a shot impresses the DTG guys so much it is chosen as a winner, chances are it also impresses the rest of us as well.
    As you rightly say recently that has been the case, but not always.
    https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/tsc-screenshot-contest-week-41-october-2022.60986/
    As you can see from this example the winning shot only achieved 1 like.
    The cscarpenter offerings gained 5 likes & 3 likes and did not win.
    DTG Judges decision is final not how many likes it gains.
    I think they prefer this method as it means those coming late to the party stand as much chance of winning as those that post as soon as the comp is up and running.
    It also deters people trying to farm votes from their buddies or creating false accounts just for voting.
    Either way onwards and upwards, good luck for next week.
