Gwe Remaster: Appreciation And Discussion Thread

Yep, annoying but as Liam pointed out above, the sigs couldn't be changed. Apart from that, great route.

 

On the pis screen on 166/165 what is the number for next to the destination example 01 London Paddington . Thanks

 

Effectively it's a route number, like what you get on buses. Used a lot in the former Southern region until recently (believe SWR still do use them) in place of destinations.

 

I don't think SWR use the numbers anymore as I don't see them when I travel on the 444s or 450s, but sometimes a driver or guard may add the old relevant route number for the fun of it. 455s had them just as part of the roller blind but I don't think the numbers would always be correct for the service.

 

Yes seen a couple of 444 services with 93 Weymouth on their PIS or 91 London Waterloo.

This website lists them for certain periods
https://sremg.org.uk/headcodes/eheadcodes.html

They are (or were) also listed in the working timetables.

 

The 165s on the Chiltern Line still carry service numbers (though they're not always accurate!):
01 - Aylesbury via Met
02 - Aylesbury via Met (Not Rickmansworth)
03 - Aylesbury Fast via Met
10 - Banbury Fast
11 - Banbury Semi-Fast
12 - Bicester North
13 - Princes Risborough ?
14 - Aylesbury via Wycombe
15 - Wycombe Fast
16 - Wycombe Stopper
17 - Gerrards Cross
18 - Gerrards Cross (all stops)
19 - West Ruislip
22 - Banbury Stopper
30 - Stratford Fast
31 - Stratford Semi Fast
32 - Stratford Stopper
40 - Birmingham Fast
41 - Birmingham Semi Fast
44 - Princes Risborough - Aylesbury
50 - Kidderminster or Stourbridge
53 - Leamington Spa/Stratford/Birmingham/Banbury/Oxford Local
70 - Oxford Fast
71 - Oxford Slow

 

Thanks! Do you or any other wise folk on here happen to know the numbers that Centro trains used to carry in the Birmingham area? If I recall correctly the 323s used to display these back in the day.

 

Here is a GWE remaster sort if question, regarding the HST fair well pack, can this be turned off and on?

 

Did the diesel legends of the great western dlc get the remaster treatment in anyway.

 

Think it just got suspension, TOD4 and a few bugfixes.

 

Thanks mate.

 

It'll be weird just seeing future train routes in the new gbr liverys, which i think will put me off from the game

 

I think there may be a HUUUUGE nostalgia market for pre GBR routes in the game. it could be an oddly lucrative cash cow.

 

That depends whether the dft would allow routes to be set just before gbr, or whether they'd want dtg to be a corporate shill for the government

 

Ye tbh i wouldnt like to see that happen as when there's different variety it all looks good tbf
