The game is really fun and realistic. The only bad thing is the DLC pricing, but I think it'd be a great idea the devs merge the lines that share the same infrastructure to add some sort of freedom to different lines. Don't hesitate to buy it. You'll love it.

Pros: I've played for 40 hours and tried many UK and German trains. I really like how much depth this game has, especially with all the systems like AWS, PZB, SIFA, LZB, etc. I highly recommend this game to anyone, even if they are not a train fan. For new players, I strongly suggest using all these real protection systems—AWS, SIFA, and PZB—as they completely change the game experience." Cons: The only downside might be that the DLCs are so expensive—it's really crazy. This game doesn't have any competitors, which might be the reason. Also, as a developer, I understand that creating physics and mapping/routes for even one train takes a lot of effort, but still, each DLC costs as much as a full AAA game, which doesn’t seem fair. :O
