    Just want to say Thank You for bringing this Legend to life. It is a beautiful to behold and a pure joy to drive. The history bits as told by Emily Turner was a very nice touch!

    Well done DTG!

    It was an interesting scenario but as I posted in the bulk FS feedback thread, the commentary kind of dried up with nothing to mark the passage of Stoke Summit, the flat crossing at Newark etc.

    Thank you for bringing the Flying Scotsman to the game I'm really enjoying it at some point in the future could we have the fastest ever steam loco in the game the Mallard it would be awesome to have it or is it difficult as it's not in service anymore

    I love it; it's especially fun taking my time as the Azuma flies by. The sounds are a little weird, but mainly it seems the wheel sound is overly loud when the external camera is positioned near the cab.

    Just a shame that doesn’t roll over into the physics. How on earth can you run from Peterborough to Doncaster without consuming any water (or coal) from the tender? Alongside the overpowered 4F, FS is the worst yet implementation of steam traction in TSW. There is zero challenge driving as you cannot run out of steam. It’s a pale shadow of the fidelity we take for granted in TSC with the excellent locos from BMG and Victory (the Peppercorn K1 is delightful) or the Just Trains V2 with accompanying Gresley coaches, including a restaurant car… :)

    Is the Mallard speed record sign represented in the game at Stoke bank?
