Dear Users,
In connection with the ongoing desire to develop the Simulator, we would like to inform you that a correction will be introduced to the SWDR soon. As part of this correction, the list of available categories for traversing TD2's railways, will be updated.
The list of new categories along with their descriptions in the format "Category Name" - "Designation according to Ir-11" can be found below.
A. Passenger trains
Train category name | Electric Locomotives | Electric Multiple Units | Diesel Locomotives | Diesel Multiple Units | Number consists of: |
International Express Trains | ECE | ECJ* | ECS | ECM* | 5 digits (000-049) |
International Night Express Trains | ENE | N/A | ENS | N/A | 5 digits (000-049) |

Regional Passenger | ROE | ROJ | ROS | ROM | 5 digits (200-999) |
Agglomeration Trains | RAE | RAJ | RAS | RAM | 5 digits (200-999) |
Empty Passenger Train (rolling stock for or from running train) | PWE | PWJ | PWS | PWM | 6 digits (XX6XXX) |
Empty Passenger Train (trains run for test purposes) | PXE | PXJ | PXS | PXM | 6 digits (XX6XXX) |
* - Due to rolling stock shortages, the ability to schedule a train with this category has been disabled.
B. International Freight Trains [1]
Train category name | Electric Locomotives | Electric Multiple Units | Diesel Locomotives | Diesel Multiple Units | Number consists of: |
International Intermodal Freight Train | TCE | N/A | TCS | N/A | 6 digits (XX0XXX) |
International Mass Freight Train | TGE | N/A | TGS | N/A | 6 digits (XX1XXX) |
International Non-Mass Freight Train | TRE | N/A | TRS | N/A | 6 digits (XX1XXX) |
B. Domestic Freight Trains [2]
Train category name | Electric Locomotives | Electric Multiple Units | Diesel Locomotives | Diesel Multiple Units | Number consists of: |
Domestic Intermodal Freight Train | TDE | N/A | TDS | N/A | 6 digits (XX2XXX) |
Domestic Mass Freight Train | TME | N/A | TMS | N/A | 6 digits (XX4XXX) |
Domestic Non-Mass Freight Train | TNE | N/A | TNS | N/A | 6 digits (XX3XXX) |
Station and Siding Service Freight | TKE | N/A | TKS | N/A | 6 digits (XX3XXX) |
Empty Freight Train (for repair or testing) | TSE | TSJ | TSS | TSM | 6 digits (XX5XXX) |
C. Engine running alone
Train category name | Electric Locomotives | Electric Multiple Units | Diesel Locomotives | Diesel Multiple Units | Number consists of: |
Passenger Locomotive Running Alone | LPE | N/A | LPS* | N/A | 6 digits (XX6XXX) |
Freight Locomotive Running Alone | LTE | N/A | LTS* | N/A | 6 digits (XX5XXX) |
Shunt Locomotive Running Alone | LSE* | N/A | LSS | N/A | 6 digits (XX9XXX) |
* - Due to rolling stock shortages, the ability to schedule a train with this category has been disabled.
D. Maintenance and Repair Trains
Train category name | Electric Locomotives | Electric Multiple Units | Diesel Locomotives | Diesel Multiple Units | Number consists of: |
Trains for inspection or diagnostic purposes | ZNE | ZNJ* | ZNS | ZNM* | 6 digits (XX9XXX) |
* - Due to rolling stock shortages, the ability to schedule a train with this category has been disabled.
Additionally, as part of the aforementioned correction, several minor adjustments will be introduced, namely:
- Complete removal of the "Emergency" category - we are aware of the emotions this category stirred. In the future, we want to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings (discrepancies) arising from instances of activating such trains in reality compared to scenarios in the fictional world of the Simulator.
- Change in the designation of the release post in the timetable from the current "podst" to "pe," to align with the applicable
Ir-11 train schedule instruction.
Full freedom in choosing train numbers still applies (subject to point 4.1 of the simulator's regulations), but we encourage the selection of numbers in accordance with the Ir-11 instruction to enhance realism during gameplay.
- The entry "Composition Number consisting of five digits (000-049)" means that in the 5-digit number for a given train category, the last three digits should fall within the specified range.
- The entry "Composition Number consisting of 6 digits (XX6XXX)" means that in the 6-digit number for a given train category, the third digit should be "6."
Updated list of train classifications by category and priority of passage (2.6 reg. sym.):
- Express trains (EC*, EN*, EI*),
- Fast trains (MM*, MP*, MH*, RP*),
- Passenger trains (MO*, RM*, RO*, RA*),
- Intermodal freight trains (TC*, TD*) running at passenger train speeds,
- Freight trains (TG*, TR*, TM*, TN*, TK*, TS*),
- Service, repair trains, locomotives running alone (PW*, PX*, ZN*, LP*, LT*, LS*).
