    Hi, I want to ask if The class 158 is now in the FIFE timetable after TSW6 release?

    You're probably more likely to see a dancing donkey at this point.

    The 158 for Fife has seemingly dropped off the radar.

    Sadly I think you're correct. One way or another though it would be good if somebody from DTG could confirm if it's happening or not.

    Maybe we'll see something in tomorrow's Road Map...even if it is a dancing donkey !

    Was mentioned on the stream and now confirmed by Skyhook that the 158 Fife timetable will be in the first wave of 3rd party patches in the not too distant future.

    Lol nothing ever straight forward with company. They make the player experience somewhat difficult at times and annoying.

    Well you hear something but I suppose it goes without saying that the announcements don't work properly.
    So far all I've heard is "Welcome to the Scotrail service to (blank), calling at (blank)" followed by the "if you see something ...." diatribe. That's all said when the scenario loads, nothing else for the rest of the journey.
    On a service using a 170 + 158 consist I didn't hear any announcements at all.
    Can we have an acknowledgement of the issue by DTG and a commitment to fix it in short order please?
    I'm running TSW6 on PC.

    I've requested a refund for the 158, no way I'm going to support the sale of shoddy work. If, and going by previous form it's a big if, the issue is fixed I might buy it again.

    19a36ec375933-screenshotUrl.jpg This memory leak issues needs fixing DTG Jamie. It affects most new routes.

    I can't justify spending ÂŁ30 on a product for PS5 that has textures that look worse than the N64...

    Why has a new or enhanced Journey Mode not been provided for the new timetable?

    Isn’t the Scotrail 158 supposed to have improved suspension? Mine is as stiff as a board.

    What on Earth did Skyhook do to the sounds? Seems nerfed compared to the original and MML versions. Please put them back to the original.

    Don't know when it happened, but at some point my medals were wiped from the Class 170 services on the Edinburgh Glasgow Sprinter timetable

    No reply, Skyhook?

    Just doing a run from G to E with the 158 and the sounds are definitely degraded from the original MML implementation.

    Also what's with the timetable on Fife Circle? Having finished my G to E run in Waverley at about 1940, I went into the timetable menu looking to do a run out to Leven and there's... nothing. After 1900 it seems all we get are a couple of runs out towards Kirkcaldy and some ECS moves. I doubt the service is that sparse IRL!

    The 158 timetable is really bad there is hardly any jobs on it. And we waited so long for it.

    I just had a quick look at the ScotRail Fife timetable and there is generally two trains an hour to and from Leven with the last departure from Edinburgh at 2305. And loads more trains on the main line to and from Dundee or the Fife Circle.

    I can only assume Skyhook ran out of time to compile and test a fuller timetable. Guess we will never know the answer as they seem to have retreated to Lawn Mowing Sim!
