Welcome to the Train Sim World Screenshot Contest! This week's theme is: Reproduce a Photo You can vote for next week's theme in the poll attached to this thread. 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. PLEASE NOTE - on TSW3, this means recent screenshot images might not go up straight away but will make sure that your image will go on the loading screen, TSW2 will be unaffected by this. 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, even better if it’s 4K! Screenshots may be taken on Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X & S or Steam. Submissions must fit the theme of the week, as stated at the beginning of this post. 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 community mods. No entries to include vehicles using Livery Designer. Due to licencing limitations we are unable to use these images. 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 Friday. Winner's Prize: The winning screenshot will appear in the game as a loading screen for 4 weeks! How To Get shots: Setting up the shot If you are playing on Steam the keys “2” or “3” will offer a selection of pre-set external views, or you can use “8” to get a free camera with more control. If you are playing on console pressing the right joystick will give you a free external camera. Console players can change the camera angle moving the two joysticks, and on Steam the direction keys and mouse will achieve the same results. Taking as a Railfan Shot Make sure “Hide the UI” is on in settings, then... Xbox One – Hold the X button. PlayStation – Hold the Square button. Steam – Press Ctrl + F10 … Railfan shots can then be found in your Profile at trainsimworld.com.

(Credit to ECMLexpress on Flickr for the reference image) Route: East Coast Main Line Train: Class 801/2 LNER
(Credit to Tony Winward for the reference image) Route: ScotRail eXpress: Edinburgh-Glasgow Train: Class 385 ScR
Route: Edinburgh - Glasgow Train: EWS Class 66 The hardest one so far in my opinion! Couldn't get the actual 66 correct, but I think I've done a decent job otherwise, I spent ages spawning and removing trains just to make this. Real: (image by Ron Fisher on Flickr) TSW4:
Another one! Route: ECML Peterborough to Doncaster Train: Class 66 Real: TSW4: (unfortunately the shadows won't appear.)
Route: Peak Forest Trains: 8F x2 and class 45 It's not entirely accurate as the real photo is a location that is not in TSW4. So I just had to make up the location as best as I could with the routes we currently have. It was very hard to do as many routes didn't have this two bridge section like this. The picture was found on a group in Facebook where the person who posted said that it was two steam engines and one diesel loco heading to the depot separately in the snow. That's roughly what it said, I forgot the location of the actual shot where it was taken and I think my statement isn't entirely accurate of what the actual locomotives in the shot are doing.
Route: Train Centre Trains: Class 47, class 45, and Jubilee class 6P I really wonder if this counts...
Route: Peninsula Corridor: San Francisco - San Jose Trains: F40PH-2CAT MP36PH-3C I really love the sunshine
Rollingstock : Hyundai Rotem Bi-Level Cab Car Route : Antelope Valley Line I don't own the real life image by the way
Rollingstock : DB BR406 ICE3M Route : Southeastern High Speed I don't own the real life image by the way
