Hello folks, Tomorrow, October 7th at 6 pm UTC, we will preview the upcoming BR Class 70 Freightliner loco Add-On. If you have any questions, please post them here. We will gather your questions beforehand, but please understand that we might not be able to answer all of them. To make things run smoothly, please use this thread for questions related to the new route only. After the preview stream, we will timestamp the VOD on YouTube, post a summary of the questions and answers, and close the thread, as it will have served its purpose by then. Looking forward to seeing you in chat! All the best, Jan
Given the nature of the class 70 being freight, will freight hauler come to MML alongside the new timetable? I appreciate its a bit DLC adjacent, but would be nice to use this on more than A+W!
Now that we have a Freightliner Class 90, a Freightliner Class 70 and Freightliner Container (at West Coast Main Line over Shap), so is there a chance, that we will get the Freightliner Class 66?
In reality, the 70s have a 4-way horn (or at least that's what I've always called it), where you can sound the horn and have it either "loud" or "soft" - will this be implemented in game, like what we have seen on the Class 170, or will there only be one set of sounds for the horn? (just loud, for example) Thanks, Elliott.
Will the Class 70 substitute for the Class 66 services on all routes or will it only be a substitute on certain routes (like the A+W, as mentioned)
With the new timetables like MML how are they running at the moment? What is texture blurring and performance looking like, especially on consoles?
Will the class 70 feature engine diagnostics in the computer screen (engine rpm, coolant temperature etc) and slow speed control? will it have openable engineroom doors? will it bring freight hauler in the routes it will substitute for?
Does this new timetable include full Crosscountry services? This should be (in each direction): 2tph 170 driveable between Derby and Nottingham (+1 Voyager per day) 1tph 170 AI, terminating at Leicester from the south 1tph 170 AI between Leicester and Syston Junction 2tph Voyager AI at Derby
Is console having a pre View before release? Console preference is it going to be affected? Is trent Valley and WCML south getting any optimisation work done to go along side this release? Is the 70 going on WCML South as a new layer or a another timetable?
Is there dynamic suspension on the Class 70 loco ? and the is the suspension height correct compared to the wagons ?
