    Since there's an Xbox sale going on as of right now. The following I own are Metro-North LGV Huddersfield Line (Northern Trans Pennine) and TSW 4 special edition. There are additional items I don't own one is Rosenheim-Salzburg Deutsche Bundesbahn Bahndirektion Frankfurt am Main Linke Rheinstrecke and Tram Sim. I'll post them on the questions that will be attached to this poll. From the Items listed on the poll which one is the best pick

    Can’t really call it an xbox sale with only a small scattering of the 100 DLCs on sale. Would love to see everything reduced by 30%

    Hi driverwoods#1787 in my personal opinion I'd go for Salzburg-Rosenheim - it's one of my favourite routes for several reasons. Depending on how much existing DLC you have, there's a lot of variety regarding the amount of locos which is great, plus there's also lots of different services - from regional, InterCity, S-Bahn and freight - with huge variations in duration which means lots of long-term gameplay. I also really like that it's a cross-border route which is another interesting aspect of this route.

    Overall, I'd go for Salzburg-Rosenheim. Linke Rheinstrecke is a lovely, long route, however it's very limited regarding the amount of locos so in my opinion it doesn't have as much long-term gameplay. I've never played Tram Sim, so I can't provide my feedback for this.

    I picked up Linke Rheinstrecke and really enjoying it. Nice scenery. Also like the BR103 and 110 because they drive different than the modern electro locomotives.

    Thanks, I'm glad to hear driverwoods#1787 - the 111 is a really enjoyable loco and quite a nice challenge; also can be used on quite a few other German routes too.

    Just to follow this up, the 111 has quickly become one of my favorites, and speaking of taking it on other routes I have been having a lot of fun with it on HRR lately.

    Thank you for telling me about that how does it run on that route because for the most part I've been getting the Dresden/ Bahnstrecke Hanau Aschaffenburg Heigenbrücken Lohr Gemünden am Main Würzburg Main Spessart Bahn Baureihe 146.2 some of the services ended up being Nahverkehr Dresden DR Baureihe 243 which will not allow you to keep up with the line speed 160kmh 100mph on HRR

    Well I don't know about the 243, but as far as the 146 goes I usually don't find it too interesting and this is certainly true when I drive it on HRR. However, when driving the 111 to me it offers a much better driving experience and you will not have any trouble getting up to speed or keeping time. I must admit I am unsure of the max speed of the 111 at the moment; I do recall that the max for the 100 is only 140 km/h though.

    Indeed, it's certainly one of the best locos in TSW. Regarding other routes, I've enjoyed the 111 on RRO particuarily (see below) - it has really given this route, which is probably my least favourite route that I still play often (if that makes any sense :D), some new gameplay freshness.
