    Welcome to the Unofficial Screenshot Competition
    This is a fun and friendly alternative to the official Screenshot Competition run by DTG.
    Here you can share your weekly themed TSC screenshots using any 3rd party / post shot editing etc. creations which are not allowed in the official competition.
    Rules:

    • TSC only shots allowed.

    • Screenshot should be in some way (can be very tenuous) linked to the theme. Otherwise anything goes.

    • You can enter up to 3 screenshots, posted as separate posts. You can delete and replace if you wish.

    • 3rd party content / Reshades / Reskins etc. are welcomed but are not mandatory.

    • Previous week's winner to decide winner (can't enter themselves).

    • The winner chooses the new theme for next week (and becomes the new judge).

    • The Judge of the week's decision is final.

    • We strongly discourage any negative comment or criticism of another entry by a fellow contributor, this is a light hearted & fun contest! This is a major "we are all friendly" thread and we hope it will always remain so.

    • Please keep chat to an absolute minimum.

    Entries will close at 9PM GMT on Friday, November 1st 2024 and will be judged by me - Paulc

    In the event of this weeks winner not responding by 17:00 on November 3th, 2024 a new thread will be created using the results of this weeks poll.
    The theme for this week is: In the city

    Feel free to interpret the theme however you wish.
    Good luck to all, but most importantly, remember to have fun.

    It's in a city, I suppose...
    With the Spinnaker Tower and HMS Victory forming a picturesque backdrop, 35028 'Clan Line' snakes into Portsmouth Harbour with Day 3 of 'The Stamping Ground Symphony', substituting for an unavailable 34028. 20241027220011_1.jpg

    If you are collecting city pics, I will likely post a pair of this in my coming weekly. Not sure yet, but it's definitely in the pool.

    DB Class 151 3.jpg
    DB Cargo Class 151 '151 135-1' heads into the city of Cologne (Köln) in North Rhine-Westphalia hauling a tanker freight train while traveling over some tracks in very poor condition; looks like the maintenance team is needed at once! Also; seems all my shots are night time based which is a coincidence!

    Motive Power: DB Class 151
    Route: Cologne-Dusseldorf
    Scenario: 5 - Freight traffic
    Enhancements: Armstrong Powerhouse Sky & Weather Enhancement Pack 2.0 + Armstrong Powerhouse Cloud Enhancement Pack, ReShade

    Sorry for my late submissions; I hope they're still acceptable.
