    Ok let me summarize.
    a) you are guessing
    b) you are guessing
    c) not at all the argument, but thanks for playing
    d) proof?
    e) again, not the argument at all
    f) proven incorrect by the latest response on US freight in particular
    g) that's not DTG, that was TSG. Different company.
    h) Asking for steam had an effect on TSG yes. Who were not likely to do a UK or US train because they only do German content.

    Shame we dont have a larger part of the MML, I keep going back to this in TSC, the JT version plus all the extensions combined are amazing! This is why I dont get to fussed on what TSW releases we get, as I know I still have TSC to fall back on with the coverage available in the UK (unfortunately my wallet suffered getting it to its current state along with the level of detail visually lol!)

    Thats like Ferrari giving Renault their award winning engine specs in formula 1. That ain't going to happen.

    it would be if JTs prime route builders went over to skyhook to get them build the route for them, but nothing like it if they share reference material they have lying around from 8 years ago that they used to build the route in TSC to assist skyhook in expanding the TSW route. i mean is not like they are in direct competition are they, JTs focus is on north west 1980s, skyhook are on modern MML or have made a start there.

    They are in competition.
    They both do the same thing in the same industry and there are only so many popular rails in the UK to do routes from.
    People have asked before "Should I buy Shap or MML?" (One by JT and one by Skyhook)
    That's competition.

    they are in competition to a point ill agree with that, but its not the cut throat industry you make it sound like. i bet some of the JT team purchased MML and visa versa and that would go for all 3PD buying different content. some of the 3PD work full or part time in every day jobs, there not relying on profits from route sales to feed a family. some do it for their love of the hobby and make a bit extra on the side.

    with respect im sure you have seen the forums to know there are many routes that can be developed in many eras that would be popular some i admit i look at and think that's a bit far down in dream land but look at TSC and how far that's come, anything is possible.
