Alan Thompson Simulation Route Discussion/speculation Thread

Yes - especially after the 'incident'

 

The class 33 is way too quiet. You can barely hear it over the sound of the mk1/mk2’s. Obviously it goes without saying that it requires a BR blue paint job.

 

Definitely br blue and maybe a few others

 

A ‘headcode’ version of the class 37 would be great. I do feel we need the Armstrong Powerhouse enhancement though, as the current soundpack is underwhelming to say the least. This may prove difficult, however, due to the “great damage AP has done to TSC”

 

Agree. If you ever got behind one of these when they worked Cardiff to Portsmouth or even better Waterloo to Exeter, then the TSW sounds are a shadow of what they should be. Storming up Honiton Bank with 8 or 9 coaches on, full throttle, flat out they rasped away to some fine tune!

 

What incident? For those of us who enjoy drama but don't have time to follow things to find out about said drama.

 

They have erected - aided and abetted by the rest of the community - an absurdly expensive barrier to entry for UK content.

 

The big drama, or incident is someone is not happy because of the price of stuff, you can't make this stuff up it's so insanely nuts.....


You just got to love madness of humanity......

 

ISTR there were grumblings over the quality of their 745 (?) for TSC along with a bit of dirty washing in public re development hell.

 

Yeah, not only that, whilst travelling as a passenger in TSW, the 33 is sounding at full throttle even when slowing down to 5/10mph - needs a serious sound upgrade, especially if it was to make an "upgraded" reappearance

 

Anyone who hasn’t clocked it yet, ATS are making a Class 90. So the rumours of them abandoning are indeed false, and the rumours of them making a loco dlc are true..

 

I know I said this, but after the class 90 announcement today I'm having a bit of a tinfoil hat Voyager moment.
