    I was wondering that too. Are they filters for specific consists, with the top one being all of them? (I haven't checked because it's late!)

    Hi, does anyone know what to do when it says ensure the cab doors are closed to drive the vehicle on the voyager cause I can’t get it to move at all if I open a cab door.
    (Sorry if I’ve missed it further up)

    A timetable scenario for an Edinburgh service starting around 5.50am - saved at N Abbott. Will re try next time with some more fiddling. Nothing mentioned in the training module about it

    At one time the training scenario covered how to recover from an emergency brake application but this seems to have been abandoned for the standard once around the circuit making a station call or two.

    Thr cab doors and passenger doors must all be or it will not move.

    Hopefully at some point they’ll tidy up this at the end of Goodrington sidings.

    I had no less than seven engine shut downs between Newton Abbot and Exeter on a 220 run, though it didn’t specify which car. Easy enough to restart from the button on the desk without stopping but not really a true reflection of real life.

    Yeah I’d love one of GWR’s cursed 3 car sets.

    Hopefully we’ll also get backdated packs for this with the likes of the 153 & 142 also.

    I would like to see a 158 too.

    Do the class 166 actually work local services on the route? I thought they came from further afield.

    Great effort by the route builders, TSW can really shine when it all comes together. The new trains are superb, the sounds are very immersive. Announcements give a new dimension to the sim. HUD-less driving with this route is a real challenge, I recommend it,fun.

    For some reason I've not seen any signal delays so far having played a good few services now. Even enabled high, but turned off train problems, shouldn't make a difference?

    Still don't know how they are implemented - are all signals affected or is it just the one ahead of the player train? Would like to have a bit more info on this.

    Obviously need AWS ramps for the temp speed restrictions as well - challenging to play hudless without. Were the temp speeds supposed to be in the pre service briefing as well?

    They’re pretty common, more so than in-game.

    I don't think the map is exactly designed for you to see that far out never mind driving there, the entirety of Goodrington Sands Station is missing before that point. However you cant even really see it from the actual Goodrington Sidings before the bridge where mainline trains park, the sidings in your screenshot are a part of the heritage railway and are in no way connected to the mainline. There's a lot worse things wrong with the route than this. Kind of just seems like a non-problem to me (??) Driving out of the map and then complaining about scenery...

    The AI trains pass that point and also the sidings are functional to use for running around rolling stock etc. if we’re not supposed to go that far I wonder why they haven’t added that screen where it tells you you have gone beyond the permitted area.

    The usual formations for the Exeter/Exmouth to Paignton in reality are 4 x 150’s (2 x 4 cars) 1 x 158 and the other 4 diagrams are 166’s.

    If you want them to put more invisible walls I'm sure they would be more than happy to! Not as if there's already enough of them around the map!
