21:22 The train for the Zwolle - Groningen route is the NS ICM-1, nicknamed "koploper" (translation: "walk through head", or "frontrunner" when taken out of context). This nickname is due to the extra front doors in the bottom of the nose; this made it possible to connect up 2 head units and have a passage to the other passenger wagons. It is a well-established train now in the Dutch Railways (NS), using the general ICR (intercity) wagons and is an early InterCity model that is nowadays mostly phased out by the NS VIRM. If you're interested for another great/classic dutch train, try the "doghead" ;)
16:10 thats the ICMm! Its the modernized version of the Often referred to as Koploper train! Untill the Renovations in 2005, you could actually walk trough the noses when the Trains where combined, sadly the technoligy was really complicated and it has been removed since
You can probably bet which one of my favourite routes will be, I was SO happy when I found out that the dog box would be coming! That will actually be accurate to irl
I like the look of that 80s German freight. Also the Welsh route and taking the Pendolino to Manchester. I'm also interested in how they do the 'narrative' for the Thomas DLC. I'm imagining scenario introductions and then triggered voiceovers and maybe events.
In that Screenshot of Köln Hauptbahnhof with the Talent 2 in line RE7 for Rheine, that line is being operated with exactly that Train, But Not by Deutsche Bahn, by National Express
My favourite line coming out is going to be the update on the GWR the new Cardiff city network and Manchester Airport and the extra one I’m adding as the Japanese line
I agree with your comment about 150s. I once had to travel on one from Colchester to Liverpool Street on the way to a night of clubbing in London, it was apparently a regular working during "Anglia" days before the 170s arrived. Never had a less suitable train for a journey. Most looking forward to the North London Line. Shame it's not the full route but I think it'll come later. 2025 will be a big year for DTG. If they get the license for Great British Railways then it's going to open up the possibility of many routes that currently can't be done. SWR, C2C, and GEML will be nationalised by the time TSW6 or TSW 26 comes out.
Well i was hopping a revael of the great western express route remaster, but my fav reveal was thomas also i am i bit upset is his cgi model and not the model from 1984
@RichyRail_ I don't think people are so upset that it's in the game as to the way dovetail put it in the game. It hurts everyone in the community when a DLC is. 1) priced like it is solid gold but it is really tin. 2) a blatant Nostalgia cash grab disguised as innovation. 3) is marketed as this" Grand reveal" yet feels more like a backhanded slap by dovetail 4) shows that dovetail is completely out of touch with the majority core player base 5) takes development time away that could have been used towards something more meaningful 6) a distraction from persistent bugs and performances issues that remain unfixed Publishing a DLC like this only upsets the majority of the community a better move would have been to announce Thomas alongside new route they wanted Nostalgia they could have gifted this as a free Christmas gift DLC. Instead of giving us something meaningful like maybe ali logo we've been asking for since the beginning of the game The p-42 Genesis. Instead they marketed Thomas as a" Grand Reveal" that everyone would love🤣and gave us this shit sandwich How many people who seem to be happy for this are the dovetail Gooch lickers who thinks dovetail does no wrong😂 oh by the way I noticed you were excited for it

Where have I heard the opening tune from? I'm hoping for a faceless version of Thomas locomotive for livery designer if not I'm looking forward to taking this on peak forest and with any luck other characters come in (Emily for me 🤞) stirling singles are a quite the design
I really liked the concept of the season of reveals but I think that DTG should be more balanced with the add-ons/updates as the majority of the reveals was British. Take those bonus reveals for instance, every single one of them was British. I really like European content such as Germany, Netherlands and France and to see mostly British content ruined the reveal a bit in my opinion.
As much as I agree there was a lot of British DLC, you need to bare in mind that a lot of the DLC (almost half) was third parties! Hopefully in future we will see more non-British third parties making content!
You think VR is gimmicky, wait until you get one you will soon change your mind. I've had a Quest for 3 years and love it, ok the graphics aren't XBox/ PS5 quality but the game play is amazing. I remember playing the 360 when it was first released, we would be on 'till 2 in the morning, now we hardly go on it. The graphics don't mean that much anymore, I prefer good game play and for a lot of VR games that is the case. And if you have a good PC then the VR world really opens up for you, not just that but if you are one of those that demand good graphics then this is the route to take, I'm hoping to get one in the new year, fingers crossed. As for what I would like revealed, well, I want DTG to stop the cash grab and sensibly price the DLC, I know you won't criticise them as you get a lot of freebies from them but many are boycotting DTG because of their greed. I remember when they released a loco, lots of achievements/trophies were there, not now, same as some of the routes. They keep the costs down to maximise profits. I'm so pleased there is a new train sim game due out early in 2025 (Tranz Simulator) it looks amazing and may just give DTG the kick up the rear that they need.
honestly i love all the trains in the all but i gotta say you no i am a huge fan of thomas to and i might get it to :D also not going to lie i rely rely love the cool picheres of the trains that showed up no joke lol XD i rely rely like the cool trains i might get it to :) how about you all ?
Genuine question, how can anyone be excited for the cargo line packs except the military one? Theyre literally rolling stock thats already in the game with zero new locomotives that shouldve been there for free. Its basically paying to have the stock you already own be put into the timetable. You are PAYING for a TIMETABLE. I genuinely despise the monopoly DTG holds over train sims for the UK

Koploper! What a great name!! I will certainly have a look into the doghead!

9:58 The Maidenhead bridge surely? Those arches are symbolic.

These are all gonna be great! I can feel it!
7:58 Richy your forgot it also includes the MK2Fs!

15:43 hahaha I asked for that specific car
Thomas the tank engine and friends..?
Are dovetail off there f***ng rocket?
Yep
What's wrong with an icon in TSW!

1) priced like it is solid gold but it is really tin.

All of that good stuff 😁🤣🤣
Surely with the Thomas announcement there will be more characters in the future.
As a Thomas fan, I flipped the hell out seeing him, definitely gunna buy him
My favourite upcoming routes are Cardiff City Network Spoorlijn Zwolle Groningen Manchester Airport and the North London Line
I pray for the day the kawasaki m8 gets added to the game and the harlem line to get a tlc
I used to run a Thomas mod in classic. And an Ivor the engine mod in MSTS
Where have I heard the opening tune from? I'm hoping for a faceless version of Thomas locomotive for livery designer if not I'm looking forward to taking this on peak forest and with any luck other characters come in (Emily for me 🤞) stirling singles are a quite the design
I hope this Japan route will be made properlyy 🙏
This Season is PEAK!!!
I was hoping they were going to announce the North Korean Subway Addon, bummer.
That would have been cool!
i mean, the trains are former metro stock from berlin. so that wouldn’t be an issue, because i think some still exist in germany.

@@RichyRail_ yeah I really hope so, the more variety of countries the funnier it is to play tsw!
Ive got my wallet at the ready for the cardiff route, definitely the dutch route, thomas and friends, manc airport and that london overground route 😂
When will this all come out? I need the class 378, and can we drive the district line tube train at Westbourne Park?
Some time in 2025
17:31
my guess is a DRS 20/3
Ooo okay, that could be interesting!

Anybody knows when the announced timetable update for Koln-Aachen will be available?
Some time in 2025
I think the Santa Fe pack will be ATSF based
