Schnellfahrstrecke Köln-aachen Remastered - Out Now!
Hot off the heels of the GWE Remastered add-on comes a German classic - Köln-Aachen Remastered is out now in Train Sim World 6!

We're excited to share that many further updates are coming as part of the second phase for this remaster, and together with these new route improvements, we're hoping you can all experience a familiar journey with a whole new feel!

Köln-Aachen Remastered
Implemented TOD4 Lighting to the route and stations,
New OHLE rendering and materials,
New Landscape Ballast Material,
New grass and vegetation textures,
Added Night Lighting to Dense city areas (i.e. Köln Hbf),
Added lighting to the churches in Aachen,
Updated Signal Materials,
Updated Display board Materials,
Replaced green bridges for newer models,
Updated Track Descriptors,
BR 442 (Talent2),
Updated Displays, FIS, Headlights and all emissives to work with new TOD4 lighting,
Added GSMR Textures in the cab,
BR 406 (ICE3M),
Added new widget to make screens look better in TOD4 lighting,
MTD adjusted to be more realistic, now including Schalten & Werkstatt pages,
AFB on the ICE3 is now selectable (via 9->1 and Beleuchtung 9->6),
BR 423 (S-Bahn Köln),

As a reminder, similar to our other Remasters, this is a completely free update to owners of the Schnellfahrstrecke Köln-Aachen route add-on in Train Sim World 6.

These changes will perfectly compliment the Köln-Aachen Timetable Update we shared back in June last year, which was our first phase of updates to the route, and took the service count total from 552 services to over 4000 (with all relevant content installed).
