Frankfurt - Fulda: DB / Railpool Vectron on Regional Services

Nowadays Vectrons by MRCE / Beacon Rail run part of the RE 50 and RB 51 services between Frankfurt and Fulda. With these mods you can put the Vectron on the services yourself. You can choose either the DB Vectron included in the Kinzigtalbahn or the standalone Railpool Vectron. They let the respective Vectron versions substitute on all RE and RB services with Dostos on Frankfurt - Fulda. You will also see them on AI services. You can use both versions of the mod simultaneously.

The mods also increase the substitution probability for the respective Vectrons from 0.1 to 0.2.

Limitations and Known Issues
  • the Vectron will also appear on RE 54 and 55 services although that's not prototypical
  • the Vectron always opens the doors on the right side on starting up a service
  • when you drive from the cab car there are two caveats:
    • you have to switch on the marker lights manually in the Vectron in the back (for this you need to enable the driving desk before and disable it afterwards)
    • you get Driver Assist messages that you should raise the pantograph and engage the circuit braker, you can ignore these messages, it works fine

I'm a little weak in english. Does use simultaneously mean i can have both paks in game at same time?

Yes that's correct.

Wenn ich den Mod nutze, fährt dann auf den 4 Linien nur noch die Vectron? Oder fährt nach Zufallsprinzip mal die Vectron & mal die von TSW 5 vorgesehene Lok?

Ne genau das ist dann das Zufallsprinzip. Neben der 146 und 114 gibt es dann eine Chance, dass der Vectron fährt.

Leider funktioniert der Steuerwagen nicht, wenn man eine Strecke wieder zurückfahren möchte. Ansonsten mega Patch...

I don’t know why this mod suddenly stopped working in the past two days. I haven’t seen any RE50 or RB51 AI trains using vectron. Even if I re-download this mod, it still has no effect. I don’t know if it conflicts with other mods or if it expires after the game is updated.

For me in the latest version the mod still works fine as on the first day. Can you still select it from the menu?

Yes, I can select vectron in timetable mode, but when I drive other trains, I can see vectron on all RE50 and RB51 trains I pass by, whether it is journey or timetable mode, but now it seems that there is only the default 114 and 146 In use

This is an amazing mod, could you do it for other routes?

This is an great mod, could you replace other dlc's 146 and 101 with 193?

Leider funktioniert bei mir der Steuerwagen dazu nicht. Gibt es da eine Lösung?. Ansonsten tolle Sache

How complicated is it to do the same for DRA? Do you think I can do it myself?

Könntest du dass vielleicht auch für die Expert 101 machen? ich weiß wäre nicht real aber würde ich feiern.

Could you maybe do that for Expert 101 as well? I know it wouldn't be real but I would celebrate.
