Since the change of the EN server names, the websites for the maps do not work, you get a 404 error. It does work for the EDR Maps, i don't like using those. I also notice that INT1 which use to be EN1, 1+ hour as been added to the timetable, so if you are in the UK like myself, it is no longer on UK time, i have no clue as to why they did that i wish they had just left it alone, it was all working well before, why change something that isn't broken.

The map sites are nothing to do with the SimRail team... so it's up to the owners of the map sites to update things for the new server names... the ones i use have been updated and are fully working, 
But some will need the maps owner to find time to make the changes.

I just asked on discord and INT1 is being changed to UTC+0 at the next restart 🙂

I believe the server names were changed to try and show the servers are not specifically for use only by people who speak that language fluently (except PL2 where occasionally some people make things very very uncomfortable for you if you are not fluent in Polish
I read that the devs were getting constant questions from new players as to which server they need to use, when they speak xxx language and there is no server with that language designation. 

Some servers had very few users due to people thinking you have to be fluent in that language to use it, so the idea is to make people aware that the international servers are for everyone, the servers location is shown to help people choose the best one for them based on it's physical location (i.e. likely fastest connection... not that it matters really when the train locations are updated every 500ms... it's not like a FPS game where a 1ms delay means a lost shot)

obviously when a group of people speaking the same language are in a specific server, that will over time become known as the one to use if you want to talk in that language by the regulars.
