Niddertalbahn Modern Timetable

About
A modern day timetable for Niddertalbahn based on the 2023 timetable, utilising the 642 from Maintalbahn and the 218 on peak services. There are 537 services in the timetable of which 70 services are drivable.

Known Issues

  • The linespeed on Niddertalbahn today is higher than that in TSW. It's likely you won't be able to keep to the timetable but overall it doesn't have a knock-on effect and time is usually recovered at passing points. It's unlikely you'll end up more than 2 minutes late at the end of the run. (Pretty good for DB!)
  • A couple of stations have been extended in real life, therefore, some 3x648 formations will be longer than the platform.
  • PIS on AI trains will either be blank or show "Nicht Einsteigen".

Feedback
Any feedback on bugs/issues/suggestions are most welcome.

Requirements

  • Maintalbahn for the 642 services
  • DB 218 & Hamburg - Lübeck for Dostos
  • Hannah's 423 and 642 repaint packs

Is it possible to have a version but with the 628 instead of 642?

Avatar of Perks390
Perks390 17 Jan 2024

There are 628 services operating on the route (in place of 245s), plus a railtour service. I could see if I can allow them to substitute but only when selected in the menu.

Route RB 34 (15715) Srockhein to Frankfurt Hbf. When you reach the Heldenbergen-Windecken station, an endless red light is on. I waited for 10 minutes and still haven't been replaced.

I shall look into it, 15706 should pass you there

In the timetable simulation, it should depart on time. I'll have a play at some point to test in game.

I've given this run a go and was unable to fault it. Did you spawn in from the menu or on foot? I had about 4 minute wait at Nidderau which is booked but as soon as the other train arrived the signal cleared.

In Timetable RB34 (15728) I have to uncouple the 642 in the end. How does it work? Uncouple key isn't working... :-(

Avatar of Perks390
Perks390 1 Feb 2024

I have the same issue, I can't work out how to uncouple the 642. The workaround is to go into the menu and turn on coupling assist. You should then get a keyprompt to uncouple, in game.

Just letting you know, having this timetable enabled disables the 628 from being used on the new Rosenheim route. No idea why.

Avatar of Becks_23
Becks_23 3 Mar 2024

I second this, the Modern Timetable on Niddertalbahn disables the 628 to be playable in Rosenheim-Salzburg

Thanks for update! Might want to add the new route as a requirement though for those who don't have it.

For some reason when driving from Stockheim, the 642 keeps braking on it's own but going to Stockheim it drives fine with no issues.

Does the same issue happen on Maintalbahn? I'll take a look when I get chance.

No, only with your timetable mod on niddertalbahn If you start in Stockenheim

Avatar of TrainX

The BR 642 quickly loses speed when idling (in one direction)
Try the niddertalbahn with the modern tt mod and stand in Stockenheim and drive off with the br 642

Avatar of Perks390
Perks390 8 Apr 2024

The issue with the losing speed is because the game spawns the same vehicle, in the formation, twice. I'm trying to fix it, but struggling. If you spawn on foot, the train will spawn correctly.

For me the br 642 works perfect from Stockheim. have you all checked if you released the Federspeicherbremse? For me it is active when starting the service so you have to release it.

Hi, thank you for this nice addon. I have a systematic UE crash after a resume with timetable scenario. I use scenario "RB 34 (15729) Stockeim to Frankfurt (Main) Hbf

Hello, is this an issue affecting you from a save resume or from starting a new service from the menu? Seems like the issue is related to the 423 & mod.

This sounds like it might be an issue with the save game function, so I wouldn't really know how to fix it. Sorry.

Hi, the timetable is great! However, some services don't show up in the tsw menu. I installed all the repaints and dependencies required so I don't know why these services don't show up in the menu: Departing from Stockheim at 8:30, 12:00, 15:00 17:58, 19:58 and 21:00, and departing from Bad Vilbel: 10:01, 11:01, 13:01, 19:03, 19:29, 22:01, 00:01. Is there a fix for this? It would be very nice! Thank you in avance ;)

I've had quite a few issues getting all the services to show correctly, I'll take another look at these at some point.

This is absolutely amazing, driving times are very good. The differences in trains are great and the ai trains are perfect. It brings a whole new dynamic to this route making me drive it a lot. It is so much better then the original one. The DTG suspension update makes it even more fun with the 218 or the 642. Very good job by the mod creator. Next one Linke Rheinstrecke? ;-D

So ein schöner Fahrplan, bin ihn gern und oft gefahren! Leider funktioniert die neue Version nicht mehr. Wird erst garnicht mehr im Fahrplan angezeigt! Die vorherige Version hat einwandfrei unter TSW5 funktioniert. Schade /: (Hab alle Deutschen DLC's und die erforderlichen Downloads)

I'll take a look into the issue later. Have you downloaded the required 423 & 642 mods?

Yes, I have installed the two mods. Also worked perfectly with the previous version! Only this version is not displayed in the timetable at all.

Perks390 8 Oct 2024

It's showing up for me in game and I even copied the .pak from the uploaded file to double check it was working. Have you made sure you only have the one copy installed?

Avatar of VirtualComplication

Hi Perks390, I know you work on this mod and my request might be a bit off-topic, but is there any chance you could replace the 423 and 642 on the Frankfurt-Fulda route with the RMV vehicles from your map? I would really appreciate it.

Avatar of Perks390
Perks390 17 Oct 2024

Unfortuantly, I don't know how to create formation replacement mods. You could try asking on the discord.

Avatar of Rich 84
Rich 84 15 Oct 2024

On services 15730 & 15732 Frankfurt to Stockheim, the 218 is attached to the cabcar end & is leading. In TSW4 it's the dostos cabcar leading, it's like the consist got messed up.

Avatar of Perks390
Perks390 17 Oct 2024

This is the correct and prototypical formation for the afternoon services. If you spawn on foot before the services you'll see that the train splits at Bad Vilbel, therefore, the 218 has to lead.

Hello,
It seems that the file is not supported under TSW5 (at least with the last update dating from October 15).
New schedules don't appear (and I have all the required addons).
Thanks :)

I'm not having any issues, could you try starting the default timetable and then quit back to the menu and see if it shows then?

Avatar of Lutrex

really a very cool mod, but when I accelerate the engine is somehow swallowed so the train is somehow silent when accelerating, would be nice if you could fix that
