With update 1.32 finally released, I wanted to go on a big trip with my own trailer not across but around Europe. It starts here. I used the DRM-free leagcy edition of the game up to Part 32

Part 0.1: Motorbikes from Taranto(I) to Ancona(I)
An average length trip of 500km, earning about €31,000.

Leaving Taranto at 18:23, Auto di Alonso trailer matches my Scania's livery quite well.

Leaving Taranto, the polizia and carabinieri have caught up with this street racer on the opposite carriageway (19:00).

Driving into the sunset just after Bari (20:00).

Roadworks on the E55 at night (22:09).

Arrived at Ancona (01:04).

A good first trip, navigation was easy and the route was enjoyable, Bari seemed like an interesting city to go back to and there were a few tunnels to break up the darkness of the night.

Part 0.2: Post Packages from Ancona(I) to Roma(I)
A short journey of 350km, taking a more scenic route through the countryside. Earning about €13,000.

Leaving Ancona at 10:23.

Serious Accident outside Ancona - a semitrailer has been badly burnt (10:50).

Mountain pass (11:49).

Stunning view (12:42).

Getting around Roma.

Arrived at the depot (16:28).

A very beautiful route through the mountains with only a short motorway section around Roma.

Part 0.3: Liver Paste from Roma(I) to Livorno(I)
A short trip of 370km mostly up the A1. Earning about €15,000.

Leaving Roma at 18:44.

Sunset as I join the A1.

Heavy traffic and fields along the A1.

At a service station to get some more diesel.

A very tight turn in Livorno.

At the depot by 00:21.

Not the most exciting journey, but it's a good starting point for the next trip, where we will be leaving Italy!

Great Screenshots!

Nice

Part 0.4: Beverages from Livorno(I) to Innsbruck(A)
A medium length journey of 600km, leaving Italy across the alps into Austria. Earning about €26,000.

Leaving Cargotras 9:45.

The A11 near Firenze.

The first sign for Innsbruck.

Into the Alps.

Breathtaking views from the autostrada.

Welcome to Austria!

Arriving at Innsbruck.

At the depot 17:53.

A really nice route into Austria and a fitting end to what I'm now going to call the prologue - I'll see you in 1.32!

A little teaser after updating to 1.32:

I've updated Promods and I'm ready to go. I've had to buy 163 new trailers for my company and they're all in the new livery and ready to go. I can't wait!

And it's raining...

Anyway, the big trip will probably start tommorrow, from Portsmouth because that's where I am right now. I'll head into France and see what happens then.

It's about midday on Saturday week 1, trip info reset, truck & trailer serviced, ready to go...

Part 1: Used car batteries from Portsmouth(GB) to Rennes(F)
A short trip of 375km to start the journey, earning €10,000.

Loaded at the BCP depot, I hit a bollard on the way here, so it's off to a good start!

Portsmouth International Port (Note to Promods team that this isn't where the port is located) the Spinnaker Tower in the backgound the edge of the harbour.

Arriving in Cherbourg at 20:30, nice to be back on the correct side of the road.

As soon as I got onto the N Road it was time to leave again, scenic cut-through to Rennes.

Night on the D973.

Arriving at Lisette in Rennes.

The first step of the journey was completed. Lisette told me about an urgent delivery of flour to Brest, so it's an overnight trip to Brittany next. I hope they make good cakes with this flour because I'm not getting any sleep...
