    Maybe but they've been ignoring posts in this forum for much longer than that unlike the more professional outfits like JT, AABS and Firefly who seem to take great pride in addressing their customers issues and comments. A great pity I can't buy their content without DTG taking a cut as I don't want to reward DTG's abysmal customer service.

    Also some more issues that I saw but forgot to include photographic proof:
    • There’s a large stretch of floating track south of Cookham, as well as other bits of floating track throughout the route (I forgot the other locations…)
    • The interior for the 165 is wrong for the set time period of 2017. At that time, no GWR 165s carried a GWR interior - the interior on all of the 165s at the time were all the First Great Western interior (with pink interior doors) according to real life images from 2017.
    • On the under frame of the 165 there are some stickers mentioning “air conditioning”, of which at the time the 165s did not have air conditioning
    • There’s a weird bug with the collisions of the interior of the 165 - with the luggage compartment at one end of the train the collisions still feel like that there are seats there, of which there aren’t in reality on that side
    • The unit numbers on the outside of the cabs of the 165 (i.e. 165122) are too large, too bold and are in the wrong place. They need to be smaller, non-bold and raised a bit higher to be closer to the top as per real life pictures of the real units :)

    Not sure if this is logged already but i ran a 165 service on GWE after the service i walked around and took another service over. The 165 had a random fault and i continued to hear the engine stall warning light click in the cab of the HST i was now driving.

    TPWS needs looking at as I don’t think it’s been set up correctly, should trigger if your above 10mph/15mph not 8mph as it is simulated

    Yes, everything is done on my end, and I'm waiting for DTG to fix the issue in core

    I was told by a GWR guard that 8mph is correct for the branchlines. Will therefore keep it at 8mph

    With DTG, it could well be months before we get this update.

    passenger behaviour has always been tricky on TSW. Might just be a simple tweak to the platform boundary.
