I was browing some DLC for next sale.
I found some DLC have no user reviews.
How strange?
Looking at this example of New York-New Haven Route released on April 2014.
Do DTG removes some/all reviews?
The sound? HA .. or better HARHAR: /
The original was a howling monster .. certainly also inside "good" audible.
Here it is whisper quiet in the cab.
(today's train drivers will certainly be jealous)
I think people tend to chat within the various rail sim communities rather than use Steam to express their opinions.

Just because the reviewer loved it or hated it, I might not. It's useful to find a reviewer who tends to share your opinion on certain games and genres and stick to what they say - which in the current day and age is almost impossible in the vast arena of PC gaming.
On saying that even "bugs" are subjective. There is a review of our GT3 Gas Turbine which votes it negatively and after translation from the German we find this statementThe sound? HA .. or better HARHAR: /

"certainly" is the key word here. The product has been negatively voted down by this person because he expected the cab of the GT3 to be completely deafening and it isn't. However he clearly didn't read numerous technical documents and assessments from the time of the testing where it stated that the cab was "surprisingly quiet, in fact so much that a conversation could be held at a whisper with no interruption" and that this was due to exceptionally good padding in the wall between the cab and the turbine room. We read every single one of these documents, and despite our surprise at this fact, we built it correctly with a roaring outside sound set and very quiet in the cab. It is his assumption (and ours as well before we researched it) that is wrong, yet he has presented it here as fact and a reason the product is a failure.
So to paraphrase an old saying - Opinions are like backsides, everyone's got one and most of them stink
