| Durch den Schwarzwald nach Offenburg |
| |
 |  | After Protrain, it is now the team of FirstClass Simulations which takes us along to discover the beautiful area of the Black Forest. And this, extremely logically, moreover, so much this part of Germany conceals treasures to be discovered, as well by its landscapes, often enchanters, as by its tourist small towns, broods with the hollow of green valleys, without forgetting some monuments and other castels. |
 |  | To carry out the richest add- on, and thus most attractive possible, Halycon made choices a little different from those of Protrain. So, the route includes a main line, electrified, in double track, which leaves the town of Donaueschingen, where the Danube takes its source, to Offenburg, city at the edge of the Rhine. Between these two termini, the line crosses well-known places like Villingen, St Georgen, Triberg, Hausach or Gegenbach.
|
 |  | To this main line, which thus crosses an important part of the Black Forest, comes to be added a secondary line, the 'Kinzigtalbahn ", starting from Hausach, while moving towards the East, until Freudenstadt, while passing by Alpirsbach and loβburg, of the names smells Malta good! This branch, in simple track, not electrified, also offers a made landscape of a wild nature. |
 |  | The object of this add- on being especially typified, one needed a realization for the height and, once again, Firsclass makes a success of its bet brillament by building a route in all points brilliant, say, on 90% of the way. One finds known names like those of Volker Rieck, Sebastian Hellmann, for example, put at contribution to make most perfectly possible the atmosphere and the beauty of the landscapes. |
 |  | And that is not a small matter! There is relief, it is a mountainous region, which one finds perfectly returned, as well as the presence of the rivers, just as these typical small villages where the famous cuckoos manufacture themselves. One also with pleasure finds indication characteristic of this line and it is always perfectly visible, even by far. |
 |  | The stations many, and are well modelled, the small ones like the large ones. Sound environment adds to the réalism route. |
 |  | Halycon provides a great number of stockswhose I found the realization often very been successful. It does not astonish too much, when it is seen that it was called upon a manufacturer like Mirko Küster, inter alia, but also Arno Staudenmeier or Adam Lippold. |
 |  | One thus finds locos electric, Br 101,110,111 (of German Railroads), 145,1446 and 152 with original cabins and adequate sounds. |
 |  | Also diesel stocks: Br 294 and a “regioShuttle”, Triebwagen 650. That is not all! Are present also Silberlinge, cars on double level and interCity. finally, some coaches of freight supplement this collection. In short, there is what to make! |
 |  | As well as possible to use this stock over the entire length of this add on (there is for approximately 150 km), are present step less than 51 activities, straightforwardly! It is to say that one will not make of it the turn in one day. To note the two first, very original, which are a kind of exploration tourist of the area, messages indicating curiosities to be seen, the name of the crossed cities or that of the rivers, with, sometimes, some historical backgrounds. |
 |  | Finally, here completely pleasant Add on which shows, if it were necessary, that one can still carry out the beautiful ones and good things with MSTS, first of the name.
