West Coast Main Line: Trent Valley From All Aboard Studios

What does a British word mean when you translate it to English?

 

ahh ok, thanks for the explanation! little annoying there are no end-to-end runs in the 807 which stop at any intermediate stations but I also prefer having realistic timetables so no blame on AABS outside of a slightly misleading article

 

Okay, taken the plunge and bought it. If Steam finishes downloading before bedtime will probably ignore the Journey anf fire up a 390 from MKC to Crewe.

Edit: Well so far, it... rocks! Going through those reverse curves north of Roade towards Kilsby totally hellfire and very zen. Running in 4K on my GTX 1650 and getting +- 20 FPS which I'm happy with. Hopefully squeeze a few more once the shaders have built.

So seems my pessimism/scepticism was unfounded. My only constructive criticism based on this fairly short bit so far is do they really have to replicate Network Rail's linear forest quite so meticulously. Leave some gaps so we can see the scenery and (maybe) improve performance a bit.

 

Without a guide it is impossible to find all patates

 

It was noted on TrainsimTV that the catenary wires do not zig-zag per the prototype (for even wear on pantographs). Not a showstopper but hard to unsee once you notice. Apart from that, Tom was very happy with the route.

 

it means it is a British language word, and we need the word in English, not in Brisitsh

Just completed a full run in a 350/4 1U23 on the full timetable with freight layers disabled, and it honestly exceeded expectations.

Some blur started to appear around Nuneaton (roughly 46 miles in), but it wasn’t too bad. It mainly affected the smaller text on the train control buttons, while the larger text stayed sharp (see attached image).

Platform visuals were a bit blurred but signage remained clear, and most of the scenery held up well for the duration of the journey.

The exterior of the train did become slightly blurry at points, but nowhere near the level seen on other routes like Birmingham to Crewe. On that route, the 350s sometimes look like they’ve been through a fire.

Considering the route length, it was seriously impressive. I was fully expecting a much worse experience.

I also did a short run in the 807 from Rugby to Milton Keynes Central and had no issues at all with the same setup (full timetable, freight layers disabled).

So far I’d give it an 8/10.

 

Assuming the crash at Lichfield was due to a spawn on a WMR 323? I had the same problem, on a full run in the 807, MK to Crewe. Weirdly though, there was a Northern 323 heading southbound between Nuneaton and Rugby..

Who is we?

 

WE is English speaking people, meaning those that do not speak British

 

Done some digging and using Euston to MK, Trent Valley and Manchester Commuter, you can almost do an entire run from Euston to Piccadilly using headcode 1H65, departing Euston to begin with at 10.31 in the Pedolino AWC 350/0 train if my memory and notes serve me right

 

I think DIRFT Is Daventry International Railfreight Terminal....which is near rugby

Could you be more specific because that sounds really stupid.

 

Sort of run I’m looking forward to taking for a spin!

 

British language is what is spoken by the people living on the Island of Britannia (UK), English is what is spoken by people not living on the Island of Britannia (the world)

 

Nope. There's no such thing as a British language.

There is English (traditional) which people in the UK speak. And then there is English (simplified) which the rest of the English speaking world speaks.

 

he's talking about british dialect....english is a language with many dialects....

 

British language is what is spoken by the people living on the Island of Britannia (UK), English is what is spoken by people not living on the Island of Britannia (the world)

 

british is not a language its a dialect....americans coming here and living here dont suddenly start speaking british english....they speak american english...just like you dont speak cockney if you go inside the m25....

 

You have clearly never seen my cockney walk.

 

PC/Steam here, did a few runs and no major issues to report.

Did 390 Crewe-MK (1 stop at Nuneaton), 37 L/E Nuneaton-Crewe and 66 DIRFT-Crewe BH.

Only momentary stutters were experienced on the 66 job as passing through various waypoints (evidently it's how they had to set the paths up as go-via's). The 390 run was at line speed all the way and it kept up without any issue loading in the scenery at speed.

So far the only issues I've encountered were;

37 L/E Crewe-Crewe: Signaller won't allow you onto the fuel road as you need to "check the switches" but the points are all correctly set.
66 DRS 4S44: Flashing tail light affixed to front of loco and non-removable.
Texture: Posters seem slightly low resolution until you walk right up to them then they become perfectly sharp and remain so when moving away.

So far done about 300 miles, was nice to get the 390 to stretch it's legs (even if I don't like them in reality) and the same for the 66. Will churn out another few hundred miles tomorrow, bedtime now

 

i’m not sure why and how this thread has descended into people quarrelling over what the english language is, but it’s hardly a surprise to see that happen. back to the topic, i’m very happy with the route, aabs have proven themselves again and the 70 can’t come soon enough

 

This means go to DIRFT (which is one of the teleport points) and get 3 potato collectables there. The problem is that only the potatoes around DIRFT count, others do not.

Update: For documentation, the position of those potatoes are in the screenshot attached.

 

too bad there isn't a dislike button. lmao what?

Simplified English is a controlled, easy-to-understand version of the language. It uses a short word list (about 850–2,000 words) and basic rules so people with low literacy or who are learning English can read it easily. It helps make text shorter and clearer to read

Americans speak American English
Canadians speak Canadian English
Aussies speak Australian English

get it?

 

English is the overall mother language. However, pretending that even all of "Britain" speaks the SAME exact English is poppycock. A Scot and a Etonian and a Liverpudian are all speaking quite different variations and that's within a quick drive from one another.

For that matter, simply the terms "England" and "Britain" being interchanged have led to more than one fight in my experience.

=-)

 

And none of those speak proper English. Get it?

 

I think the best thing for you to see a good improvement in performance is either upgrade your GPU or downgrade your resolution to 1080p, running 4K on a GTX 1650 is a bit nuts.
