Why Are There People On My Train?

This is not a rant, just constructive feedback.

Why are there passengers on my Not In Service train? I was driving 5F55 Faversham - LDN STP an ECS move and the train was full of passengers as though it was in service.

I know this has been brought up before, and I understand that the passengers are very alien but the least DTG could do is ensure no passengers on ECS and depot moves.

Hopefully passengers will be sorted by TSW 6.

Thank you

 

Also there is no instruction to open and close doors before you move the train.

 

And after loading a save, there was suddenly nobody in my flying scotsman, touring tourists on an historic journey…
People have lost love for trains

 

Welcome to train sim world

 

There are passenger in the trains when they shouldn't be there and there are no passenger in the trains when they should be there. If you go to parked trains on sidings, you will found passengers in them. But I'm pretty sure, DTG will announce improved passengers for TSW6

 

Because the passenger algorithms in TSW5 are seriously broken.

 

Hasn’t it been broken since like tsw 2?

 

I don't think they ever worked properly

 

Hopefully DTG will get this sorted for TSW 6. I’m looking forward to it.

 

As a french person, I would say "Compte là-dessus et bois de l’eau !".

It means, in a sarcastic way, that you should not raise your hopes too high

 

Ironically whenever I drive an out of service train it's usually a lot busier than one's that I drive on passenger services.

 

Yes, the same thing happens to me. It is very frustrating.

 

All indications are that you'll be disappointed. Couple of years ago, the same question was asked and the response was negative. Haven't heard anything different since. Actually I haven't heard anything from DTG about passengers in the last 2 years.
