    what a waste of money im tired of dovetail putting out LOVE. this dlc has no freight services and the passenger services are all repetitive. I will no longer be spending any of my hard earned money on dovetail games. you lose a customer for putting out LOVE.

    The signaling system is being fixed. They are currently unable to build longer routes.

    They are not really unable to build longer routes, it just would take much longer.

    I had an issue with the TSW not Saving the Scenario in NEC Terminal Switch. I save and then the next morning tried to play Last played and it crashed the Sim. I haven't accomplished any other Scenario yet to see if this is an isolated problem with just one Scenario.

    People need to stop complaining that it isn’t perfect at release.

    John, I absolutely can see this issue from your perspective. This route has both its positive and negative aspects to it and to say there is absolutely nothing wrong with the route is totally false and does a disservice to the game. As both consumers and fans of TSW, we have to remain critical of the product we receive and to acknowledge it's flaws isn't inherently a bad thing. Dovetail seems to be more on top of things with this release seeing as they released a known issues thread themselves with items they plan to fix and are actively taking feedback regarding the audio issues the sim is currently plagued by; an effort I applaud personally. You're opinion of the game is no less valid than anyone else's and I thank you for sharing both your likes and dislikes in your earlier post. It's constructive criticism that will help mold this game into what it both deserves to be and what we deserve from a game as consumers.

    If you don't believe the route is worth the money, that is entirely your prerogative. I will never tell someone how to spend their money or tell them what their money is or isn't worth. That decision is subjective and personal. I see my purchase of the route and every other piece of content for this game as an investment into this game's future. I want to see it be better and I want to be able to provide the resources I am capable of providing to see that dream fulfilled. Whether or not it's a fool's errand, no one can say for sure but I have very high hopes for this franchise. I hope we can all come together as a community here and help further this goal together!

    I feel that this is the best DLC for TSW that they have released.

    I would be hard pressed to argue against that. I am enjoying this route as well and I see it as a great starting point towards something truly amazing that we as a community can be proud to own. I'm glad you are also enjoying the route!

    Here’s my perspective. While I’m not personally fond of the choice they made doing such a section, the route still does look good. Anything in game form will never be 100% accurate. Sure there may be missing elements that probably should have been put in. But we are talking about a game that is a little over a Year old that will be expanded upon for years to come.

    Like the other individual stated, making an investment into the company is for the intention of supporting them so that they can get better. We have to understand, this isn’t solely a hobby for them. They do have to make a living. And though they probably could learn to address issues that are brought up a little better than they currently do, I believe they are trying to make positive steps in the right direction.

    Withholding support from them over flaws that can be addressed can prove to be quite counterproductive, though in other scenarios may help put a fire under them and try getting into the habit of putting in the extra effort to get things done right so that it becomes less of a problem to address issues upon release.

    Only time will tell. But for now, I still am putting my faith in their ability to make this sim we all hope it can be.

    Hey so I’m trying to drive this in service mode, and I drive one way and get out and I can’t find a timetable so I have no idea when the next train is coming. Is there a timetable?

    Check the map and you will see what other trains are moving and their position on the map.
