    I just want to say that steam locomotives have no place in this world but to be in scrap yards for scrap and steam locomotives are not reliable because you have to shovel the coal in and check the water level in the boiler and you can't see anything with a big boiler in front of you and you had to check the reverser so manage the steam pressure in the boiler and steam locomotives are prone to boiler explosions and that's why that there should be no more steam routes or locomotives for TSW2 and what are your suggestions for this thread.

    This is just me venting here because I was just been told off by someone saying that my Spirit of Steam ideas for locomotives are terrible.

    Nothing wrong with steam simulation if done properly.

    The Bossman locos in TSC are some of the best in the game. I haven't bought SoS yet as I'm waiting for a sale and some more of the issues that plagued it on release fixed. However I most emphatically want to see steam expand. We need some GWR locos to run on West Somerset. We need some iconic routes like Somerset & Dorset, the Riviera Line to Kingswear or the Great Central, maybe the Brockenbahn for Germany.

    Steam locomotives are the best, should never of got rid of them ;)
    As far as TSW is concerned I'd be happy with only steam locomotive routes and DLC from now on, its been so many years without now.

    no more trains in tsw as they always derail and all you do is just sit at the front and press some buttons.

    Oh i agree that steam trains are just a pile of outdated pieces of technology that belong in a scrapyard or a museum but that doesn't mean more steam routes shouldn't be made just because they don't interest you.

    I know you weren't in a good mood but There is a huge community of people who absolutely love steam trains/routes. Imagine the uproar that would happen if dtg never made any more steam dlc. There is nothing like steam trains. They are literally living beasts. You can see the steam, smell it and hear it. Seeing the locomotive going up a gradient is marvel. They are intricate and require a lot of skill to operate. Sure if you mess up, they can blow up. Sure, they are old, but the world was built on steam trains. Even the game is called train sim world so they should create trains from different eras such as steam trains. I wasn't a steam fan but every since spirit of steam came out, I am in love with steam trains.
