The "fogotten" route in RS

[seaboardairline]

Lately I've been getting more and more into the Hagen-Siegen route. I think its one of the best and the most under rated route available in RS. The scenery is great, very detailed and the trackage is very good. Only drawback, I wish there was even more rolling stock for this route.
Be nice to have the V-200 diesel on the route, thats one of the sweetest German engines ever built. And...yes I spelled "forgotten" wrong on the tittle!

I agree with you. It was the most used route for me when I ran RS. But have given up on RS until Mark2 patch comes out. Too many things not working properly for me to get enjoyment with RS.

Hi Arthur !

German Railroads have released some additional payware rolling stock and scenarios for this route:

and can't remember where I got these from:

but think they were featured in the Rail Simulator forum some time ago, which has no dedicated for Rolling Stock section ! :o

There are many DB variations add-ons available splattered all over various forums and it is time consuming to trace them all.

Sorry, I think the German route in Rail Simulator was just trash. It was my least favorite route, period. The York to Newcastle Line Rules!:cool:

Hi Otto

The new stock you have shown I'm pretty sure they were all by newS and can be found on UKTS.

Correct !

I should have expanded their *.rar files to check who created them ! :o

newS is Swen (reversed) Klemund. Try doing a search for newS ! ;)

Here they are: http://forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic.php?f=215&t=81186&p=971900&hilit=SWEN#p971900

Some of them have been re-skinned by Dave01, that's his e-mail name, I can not find at UK-TS.

There is not much of DB rolling stock in their File Library and neither is there any on the German web site.

Also seems that no RS forum has a dedicated to available rolling stock section, other than one for building some in the UK-TS KRS forums.

P.S.: O.K., so I am going to stick my neck out again ! ;)

Here are their zipped RAR files: www.otto-wipfel.co.uk/rs/db-rolling-stock.zip

Thanks, Basherz and Otto, I think I have most of the freeware add-on's shown in the screenshots.
I think the main reason I love this route is because its fully electrified. The Paddington route has partial wiring, but ends too soon. I just love electric railways! So clean, quiet and fast! CSX is talking about electric wiring most of it Florida routes, but so far nothing has been done.
