Many of you already know scenarios from SubwaySim 1—but SubwaySim 2 will bring a fresh batch of exciting challenges in Berlin! Today, we’re introducing two highlights you can look forward to. And yes, we’ve added a few new ones in Hamburg too—but more on that later.
Train Preparation
Last week, we took a deep dive into the topic of coupling and uncoupling—and of course, there’s a fitting scenario to go with it.
In the Train Preparation scenario, you’ll experience several brand-new features in SubwaySim 2. Your task: make sure an extra train is ready in time on the siding near Gleisdreieck station for an upcoming evening event. But the four A3L92 units that make up the full train are still spread across the Warschauer Straße depot.
You’ll start in the large maintenance hall near the station and power up the first A3L92 unit. We’ve paid close attention to detail—for instance, the depot’s roller doors are fully functional. Just like in real life, the door opens first, and only then does the signal show "Hp4" to allow movement onto an occupied track.
Step by step, you’ll form a full-length train out of the individual units. It takes a careful hand—smooth coupling is a skill in itself! Once your train is ready, it’s time to depart. Running as an empty train behind a scheduled service, you’ll need to navigate a series of red signals—demanding your full attention and driving precision.
After the Storm
This one’s a real challenge. You begin by waking up a train in the Nollendorfplatz siding tracks, then taking charge of the first passenger service of the day. But after a night of stormy weather, an unexpected situation pops up: a tree has fallen across the tracks.
Just like in one of the Hamburg scenarios, this one calls for sharp eyes and quick reflexes. But once the emergency brake is engaged, a new question arises: how do we get the passengers out safely? Luckily, dispatch comes up with a clever plan...
