I am really pleased with our new German Route: Koln‐Koblenz. We think it really shows off the features of this part of the country and am certain it will provide hours of enjoyment to German rail fans.

After the initial screenshot release from this new route it was pointed out to us by the Train
Simulator community that we'd included the 146.2 locomotive instead of the 146.0 that operates on this route. Needless to say this is absolutely not what we had originally planned, but we’re incredibly grateful to have had this error highlighted. We know that we've included the wrong locomotive and are now working to fix this as quickly as possible.

Rather than delay the release of the Koln‐Koblenz route to await the arrival of the correct loco, we have taken the decision to release what we believe to be an excellent addition to Train Simulator, despite this shortcoming. We would rather give you the choice of whether to pick the route up now, or wait for it to be as we originally intended, with the 146.0 included.

The good news is that work has already begun on the 146.0 to replace the included 146.2 and we expect it to be added to the route in a matter of weeks. We will automatically update the game to include the 146.0 and rerelease the scenarios so they work with the correct locomotive as soon as this is complete. If you get attached to the 146.2, don't worry, we will leave this for you to enjoy in QuickDrive.

Once again, my thanks to those who pointed this error out to us, and please accept my apologies for any initial disappointment this brings. We will be correcting the error with all due haste, but stand by the Koln‐Koblenz route as a worthy addition to your Train Simulator collection.
