Dear TrainzDE community,

as you should know, the year 2022 is coming to an end. But before it will end, we must head on into Halloween. So, the reason why this article exists:

Ever since I took over TrainzDepot, copyright has been a topic that couldn't be avoided.

Some people simply don't care, others don't realize that a violation of it can have serious consequences.

A conversation with a (former) site owner colleague, who had to be liable because of a corresponding violation by a user - and as a consequence had to close the site completely - now makes me address this topic again.

Please make sure to upload only your own content or content that you have explicit…

After 3DZUG already released three routes for Trainz Simulator 3 (Mobile), the work on the first desktop track for Trainz 2022 is almost finished.

As already mentioned elsewhere, we are currently looking for reinforcement for the Trainz.de team.

You might have noticed that the actuality and range of news on the homepage is rather limited, although there would be enough to report.

The reason is that some team members are no longer active, others are currently very busy due to work, school, family or similar.

For this reason we would be grateful if you would support us as a team member especially in the following areas:

In the topic "Adventskalender entfällt / Verstärkung gesucht" I have already written,

that there will be no regular advent calendar this year.


Because we were quite late with the planning and there were not enough messages to fill the advent calendar, we have decided not to use the advent calendar plugin this year, empty doors are not nice.


To give content creators the possibility to offer content in advent calendar style, I created a forum thread that can help out a bit:

As start into the last month of the year you can now enjoy the ICE 4 (BR 412) from 3DZUG for Trainz Simulator 3 (TS3).

Hello Dear Trainzer, at this point I would like to point out a campaign of the Bahn and many transport associations: Under the hashtag #besserweiter, a free upgrade of existing season tickets (monthly tickets/semester tickets) to (almost) all of Germany is currently offered. The promotion is valid from September 13 to September 26, 2021 inclusive and applies to the public transport of participating transport associations (excluding long-distance transport).


Maybe a good tip for one or the other …

Hello dear Trainzers,

after the call for new pictures for our banner was so successful, we would like to bring (back) a (old) new tradition on Trainz.de together with you. The old hands among you surely still know our screenshot contest from the Trainzdepot.

For everyone else here is the idea behind it: Every month there is a theme to which matching pictures from Trainz can be submitted, all users then have a few days to rate them and towards the end of each month we then choose the screenshot of…

In the 3DZUG webshop (content for Trainz, PTP2 and DTG Train Simulator) there will be a 30% discount on all items with the code "BIRTHDAY2021" on the occasion of the site's seven-year anniversary during the next three days.

Even if it is mainly a destination for content for the Train Simulator from Dovetail Games, the old PTP2 content and some vehicles…

Even though we are mainly a Trainz forum, we also think take a look at other train simulators from time to time.

On HumbleBundle, a platform where you can buy games at low prices and also do something good for charity, Train Simulator 2021 from Dovetail Games is now available from just one euro. If you pay more, you will also receive additional vehicle DLCs. These are nothing special, as they are all quite old and have no special functions, and the routes on which they could realistically be…
