About This Content One of Germany’s most strategically important rail lines comes to Train Simulator, bringing the splendours of The Rhine Railway to life and featuring one of Europe’s largest freight marshalling yards.The Rhine Railway runs from Mannheim to Rastatt, via Karlsruhe, and was opened in 1870 as an alternative route to the Baden Mainline. The line originally ran between Graben-Neudor and Karlsruhe, following a more western path to its current one, and is now called the Hardt Railway, partly used by lines S1 and S11 of the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn.In 1895, the current route was opened as far as Karlsruhe and extended to Rastatt. Being entirely within the Upper Rhine Plain, the line is almost entirely straight and there are no major engineering structures anywhere along its path, and runs almost parallel with the Rhine Valley Railway, which runs from Mannheim to Hiedelberg, Karlsruhe, Rastatt, Offenburg and Basel.The line has undergone several changes through the years, being adapted and extended for both World Wars. Most notably, the line was electrified in the 1950s and in subsequent years, several stations were abandoned, including the station of Altrip, - the town now lies on the opposite bank of the Rhine having been cut off entirely by the straightening of the river.Today, long distance trains formed of electric locomotives with Intercity passenger coaches, as well as ICE and TGV high speed trains, travel the route in either direction. It is also served by Regional-Express services formed with BR425 S-Bahn electric multiple units.A prominent landmark on the route is the Mannheim Rangierbahnof, one of Europe’s largest freight marshalling yards, stretching six kilometres (3.7 miles) and covering 200 hectares, and also an important freight exchange for the Southern Rhine Valley.The 80 kilometre (50 mile) Mannheim to Karlsruhe section of The Rhine Railway for Train Simulator recreates the busy line as it is seen today, and features the criss-crossing commuter, high speed and freight lines that see dense traffic on a daily basis.A number of passenger and freight locomotives and trains are also included with the route, including the DB BR 406 ICE 3M, DB BR 189, DB BR 425, DB BR 294 and associated freight wagons.ScenariosSeven scenarios for the route:Night ContainersRheinau ReplacementSchwetzingen FreightKarlsruhe CommuteMannheim BoundRefreezing the IceSouthbound to KarlsruheMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

Okay, for once, this actually LOOKS kinda decent, which can't be said for all German TS routes. Buuuuuut.If almost your entire route is LZB signalled (which is fine by me) - how did nobody catch that the LZB distance bar in the ICE3 cab is completely incapable of correctly displaying a distance, jumping from 4000m directly to 3000m, and showing 1000m when the actual distance to the signal is ~1500m? Making a couple of friggin' LEDs light up correctly isn't rocket science, guys.Oh, and the rest of the signalling is really weird, too (as usual).. Superb detail covering Mannheim running down past the factories and industrial areas into the lovely German countryside, You can run an ICE at top speed or a slow freight train, very smooth trackwork, all the towns and villages beautifully laid out. Lots of scope for freight consists and passenger trains of all descriptions, probably the best German route DTG have built so far, you won't be disappointed.. Nice looking route with a nice selection of locos and an intricate network of railways and sidings, but too unpolished. Don't buy unless on big discount, I'd say.Sometimes you get sudden speed change without any signs indicating it along the road. Track monitor is broken and sometimes speed limits shown on it will be duplicated next to each other so you can't tell what they say.In the route-included locos, saving your progress while moving will result in PZB locking itself on disabled once you start over from the saved point and you will have to stop your train to enable it again.Also, why won't somebody finally build a route set in the past in germany? Every new german route is modern DB and most of the stock looks and feels very similar.. Hi: Don't Usual Comment on much. But this route for me defiantly deserve,s a mention. Also. Don't run night Scenario due to poor eyesight. However on this occasion. Run a night Scenario. I found it very good both as a Scenario and visual. I would recommend this route same as others. Which inspired me to purchase this route.. I LOVE THIS ROUTE:Pros:Correct trainsLong routeRealistic stations and sceneryGood ScenariosCons:Scenarios for 294 please!Overall, one of the best routes. Today I've downloaded this DLC and drove from Mannheim to Karlsruhe with a BR120 EL ( VRailroad origin ) with max speed 160. Close to Karlsruhe a collision (?) with Quick Drive on the High Speed part. Tried the other direction and again a collision a few km before the end in Mannheim. All the AI traffic was driving very slow I realised ( to me a warning ) . It is sometimes nice te have AI traffic during QD. But not if it ends your game. So the High Speed part of Mannheim - Karlsruhe is not playable with the AI traffic.And a play via the old track ( the low speed one ) Again a SNAFU. In my public cloud a picture of the collision . So out of three drives, all three ended with a collision with some AI traffic......
