Thema: Questions about tours and schedules Mi 2 März - 4:53
Hello everyone,
After reading the manual carefully, I still need help understanding more about different tours. I have been playing mostly tour # 1 but I am confused about these other tours: 2, 3, 4, 5. What do these numbers mean? For example - if I select tour # 5 does this mean that there is a total of 10 return trips to complete?
My second question is about the routes 92E - U Rathaus Spandau - Stadtgrenze and 92E U Rathaus Spandau - Freudstr. I could not find a timetable for them so I am a bit confused. Is there a way I can select these services?
My apologies for boring you with my questions. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello OMSIfan, the answers I'll give are based on my interpretation and gameplay experience, so I cannot confirm if they are true. But for me, they seemed to be
I understood that each Tour belongs to a bus (whether AI or not) operating a certain route. Therefore, if there are 7 Tours associated to a route, there will be 7 buses, each one driving the trips inside the tours.
The 92E is a special route and operates in rush hour traffic (Monday to Friday). I have never used it, but I think that it operates from 8:00am ~ 10:00am, 4:00 pm ~ 18:00 pm (just an estimative).
Please let me know if I told something wrong.

If you look in your Start menu ...
Start > Aerosoft > Omsi > Timetable
... you'll find a list of all the timetables (which are more like vehicle schedule cards) for each of the routes and the days/times they operate.

Note that for example on saturdays and/or sundays you've got special lines to choose (called something like "1 (So)"), and I guess they are special routes/lines for weekends.
The 92E line is something similar to this. If you're not on the specific time when that line is available, you won't see any options. I saw the 92E entries for first time yesterday (but I forgot to check the current day/time...).
In any case, always check the small details you have below while selecting lines and routes, telling you the start and end stops, etc... that gives you and idea about the bus route.
I hope that helps.

If you click on the clock icon (press ALT for the menu) you can fill in the date. You can also see if there is a holiday, if so, the 92E will not run so you should change the date. So it runs during rush hour but not in the holidays.
