    So I was driving a Class 465 into Gillingham Depot and next to one of the sheds, I found a cat just sitting there, watching my train go by. I'm not sure if this can only be seen in March, or April, and I'm also not too sure if anyone else's seen this as well.
    To any people who do like cats, their name is Tripod, which can be seen on their collar:) 0acaceff-8d46-4750-abed-70a622150c60.jpeg

    Yes I've found it. There's another at Hoo Junction.
    It's kind of a TSW thing; you can find them all over.

    There are quite a few cats on East Coastway (about 8?)

    Wasn’t BCC plagued with them as well?

    As long as the kitty stays away from the active running lines, she'll be just fine

    I had it on good authority that the (late) Felix at Huddersfield was actually very track safety aware. Everyone worried that the main risk to a station cat is being on the line and happening to get struck by a train but they are apparently quite sensible in that regard. More at risk from a road vehicle if they wander out into the forecourt.

    Though the undocumented fact about Felix (who was actually a lady!) was that she could be quite aggressive and not afraid to give an annoyed swipe with the murder mittens!

    There is an elevation ramp, to walk on, on the left from where you spawn, the cat is on the ramp

    Should we remove cats to improve TSW performance?

    We need to better optimise the cats, not remove them altogether.

    Might help get rid of the purry textures

    Maybe the big reveal at Direct will be Dovetail are doing Stray 2!

    Which reminds me, I really need to replay the original again - though I could only get past some of the levels with the cheat mod. It was by no means as easy and laid back game as the publicity projected.

    I preferred Little Kitty, Big City.
