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.

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.. Complete and fast. It's not like the other routes where in ICEs have to slow down again in some parts of the route, instead it takes you straight to the speed line for these trains with non stop 200kmh action straight from the stations.The route is nicely optimized too.. 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.. This DLC appears to have caused a virus in my computer, so when it works it's amazing; but it rarely does so - I can't really recommend it.. All in all an excellent route that I very much enjoyed playing, thx DTG. It's rare for me to complete all career scenarios for a route, but got much pleasure driving all 10 over just a couple of days; which says it all! :) The included rolling stock is IMHO generous and a distinct improvement on previous versions of same locos, especially the supplied ICE 3. The route comprises a nice mix of a super fast Inter City line, together with a slower more winding line for local stop-start commuter traffic and freight runs. The huge Mannheim yard offers ample potential opportunity for creating some very involved freight scenarios. Surely one of the best German routes for the game!. I like the route and the trains. I just wish there was a few more scenarios with the ICE. Only two scenarios are included and one is with bad weather.. the german routes such as this is always scenic to say the least.the main problem is speed changes which are not displayed on the hud.the trackside signalling is accurate though.so learn the route and signals and dont rely on the hud so much.i concur with growlers review.a german route worth picking up but as with all trainsim product wait for sales,unless its smokeboxs creations then get his releases straight away.. A good German Route done well. PZB and LZP operate both as expected, next to no fualts with the route only noticed one unexpected speed change but not everything can be prefect. If you like German routes both high speed, commuter or freight it's worth a buy (but as always wait for sale for best price).
