Route Airedale & Wharfedale Network: Leeds & Bradford - Skipton & Ilkley

So I drove the "Midnight train from Platform 0" scenario. What was spooky about it?

The weather this horrendous, which is cool as you have to concentrate.

But you speak to a female passenger before boarding the train, asking if it's the train to Bradford, then at the end you speak to a male passenger who was waiting for his wife. Then it comes up "well, that was spooky."

Was it? Did I miss something?


I personally prefer the one on Niddertalbahn when you see the ghostly signal.

 

All I noticed was a steam train pass me about half way.

 

Yeah and that. I just assumed it was a Railtour.

 

Mee too I got admit that I think the newer scenarios are pretty much just end to end runs. And that's it nothing special and you dont even have to anything extra.

 

Scenarios have never really been good in TSW. There are a few exceptions, but apart from those it's usually just timetable service with 1 difference. Look at for example Köln - Aachen and try to name even 1 interesting thing that happens in those scenarios.

 

I think the main point of scenarios now is to learn how to drive a certain train. Not very exciting for me

 

I’m playing the Journey Mode chapters, but I’ve noticed something really strange… Where is the last portion of my train? I spawn into the next Journey Mode run and this is what I get… XD

Class 333 Service: 2D79 *no mods active*

 

Is that the last job in chapter 3 ?

 

Yeah it is...... I have never seen this before in TSW and i have seen a lot of strange issues before in this game.....

 

Same for me on xbox if I remember there was one other job where that happened I can't remember witch route I think it was a Scottish route.

 

Same for me. But it works in timetable mode.

 

Set the date to 22nd Dec in Timetable mode and Journey mode will be updated with the AP and medals. It doesn't seem to work if you choose another date.

 

Ah thats a good idea... Let me try that out

 

Sorry no succes....

 

Is it just me or is the raildriver totally hosed on this route in the 331 - I can't seem to be able to put the reverser in forward and the normal light switch operaztes the wipers ... reaaly thought they had fixed the raildriver in TSW6 and now this.

 

Is there plans to sort the announcements on the 331? Can’t believe that they are accurate with no “we are now approaching…” but the “This is….” On approach? Find it really off putting.

 

Is there no mastery on this route

 

No more Masteries for any route.

 

Sometimes it has a fun story or several activities chained together. But most of the time it's just a glorified timetable service, maybe with a bit of extra guidance on setting up the train.

Edit: the train spotting scenario in Leeds is pretty cool.

 

i’m late to the party but i agree. i remember a few months back harry received some personal grief which is absolutely unacceptable and has no place here, but i do share the sentiment that the constant chit chat and playing around with the free cam is very frustrating. the livestreams shouldn’t go away as many people would still watch them, but a more formal, pre recorded showcase with commentary about everything the route has to offer would appeal to me a lot more

 

The problem is that DTG could (and will) just pick the optimal run. With the live streams, whilst they're not perfect, they allow people to at least see if it's got big issues (well pc players at least). They already cherry pick services they know run well...
