This add-on shows the north-western and south-eastern radial lines to and from Berlin's
Ringbahn. Terminus stations are: Berlin Central Station, BER Airport, Grünau,
Hennigsdorf, Pankow, Spindlersfeld, Waidmannslust. The S-Bahn and mainline tracks
are equally navigable, signalled and usable in scenarios. The display period is the
state of the lines in 2024/25. Along the route, you will find objects that no longer exist
in the real world, such as the water tower at Schöneweide station, which can be seen
on the cover of the manual. Although listed as a historic monument, the building was
demolished in 2014 due to the risk of collapse and a lack of funds for renovation. It
was THE landmark at Schöneweide station.
<p><br />
In addition to the Ringbahn the add-on includes 70 km of additional track and 28
highly detailed stations, bringing the total length of the Berlin rail network to just over
100 km. When complete, there will be 32 additional stations and 115 km of Berlin SBahn
and railway lines.

ATTENTION: This is unfinished software. It allows you to get to know and try
out the product. We would greatly appreciate your feedback at
support@virtualTracks.net. Your wishes, ideas, suggestions, and any errors you find
and subsequently fix will be incorporated into the final product ‘Berlin JWD’ and make
it better than I could have done alone.
AND: The final product is included in the purchase price. When Berlin
JWD is finally finished, you can download it from the shop where you
purchased it at no additional cost. The add-on is scheduled for
completion before the end of 2025, or early 2026 at the latest.
