Driving the DB BR612 from Chemnitz to Dresden! ~ Train Sim World 2

Join T.T.F.T. as he drives a German diesel train on the new Tharandter Rampe route in Train Sim World 2. Today the DB BR612 is operating an IRE1 service from Nürnberg Hauptbahnhof to Dresden Hauptbahnhof. We'll take over the train in Chemnitz, with 79 kilometres and four more stations left to cover:

Chemnitz Hauptbahnhof
Flöha
Freiberg (Sachs)
Dresden Hauptbahnhof

This route is honestly amazing. I love the contrasting scenery on it, especially with the big bridges (even more so with the incredibly narrow and winding valley past Freiberg [Sachs]). As for the DB BR612, she is certainly an interesting beast to drive. I give more of my thoughts on Dresden to Chemnitz throughout the video itself.

Most noteably for me, however, was the narrow-gauge coaches that DTG actually bothered to put in. You can see them in the adjacent sidings at Freital-Hainsberg and Freital-Potschappel. Does this mean that we'll soon be getting German narrow-gauge routes in TSW2? If so, that'd be awesome!

(And if my research is correct, the narrow-gauge line out of Freital-Hainsberg is the Weißeritz Valley Railway).

(As well as at least one trainspotting video per week. I don't call myself 'The Trainspotter from Tauranga' for nothing).
