My workplace for the next weeks.

Siemens DESIRO HC
5438 Hp
LZB/ETCS Lvl. 2/3 ready
Top speed 160Kp/h
Designated as BR 462

Pretty reliable machine, smooth but fast in acceleration and breaks like hell. Comfy seat, drives like butter.
Had an Emergency Break situation and through my CCTV screen I could see people fell out of their seats.

Maybe I'll stay with them.

Some weeks ago, I cheated death. Literally. I was having a night time drive on a freight train with my teacher, a really cool lady. While sneaking through Germany I realized my train started to go over on the opposite track.

One of the worst nightmares of a conductor: Accidentally going on the wrong side of the tracks, cuz the controller is a dick.

I grabbed my train phone, hammered the emergency button and called for a complete emergency stop in my vicinity.

Activated all available breaks, Pedal to the table and watched out of the front window to look for a train approaching. If yes, there would've been only one option: JUMP THE FUCK OUT OF THE TRAIN! One has to die in such a situation, but not me.
We got lucky, all trains stopped in the right time.

So, I grabbed my phone again and called the controller who was not aware of the dangerous track switch. The first thing I asked was: "Are you a fucking result of brother sister marriage?"

He realized his mistake and apologized but I was in a big rage and insulted him for minutes and after such a situation, I have any right to do it. I could've ended up as sauce on the tracks. My lady teacher was also shocked and this gal is pretty tough, normally. She literally fell into my arms and was at the brink of a mental breakdown, because a controller thought it was good idea to jerk off on some porn than monitoring his tracks. The shift was over for us, after two hours. After any formalities were done, the emergency manager took us to the next hotel and we got a day off after that bullshit.

You must have decent graphics in this train simulator.
And as I read the gameplay is really interesting

After the drive. For now, I'll speed down the tracks with 160kp/h while listening to music and smoking a cigarette.
