I just bought the Class 66 RHTT and logged into Train Depot to see what I could do with it. The answer is... get very confused. What I did was... Click on Train depot Click on Timetable Click on Class 66 EWS Clock on Class 66 EWS (RHTT) I get this screen: Which is interesting as I did not know it was on six routes Okay - I'll pick Edinburgh-Glasgow and I get this screen: Which is weird. Needless to say I get the East Coastway timetable.for ALL Class 66s After clicking around a bit I find that to get the Edinbugh:Glasgow timetable I have to select Cathcart. To get Catchcart you need to select East Coastway. Great Western gives you London Commuter. And so on.
This is interesting. I have the Cathcart route, yet I don't get the option to use the 66 RHTT on it. The only route I can use it on is the SEHS. So do you need all 6 routes for it to be available?
Well, yes - but the whole point of Train Depot was to be able to drive a train without having to first know/guess which route it ran on.
Well, that is another "error" because I am Neither did I until Train Depot showed me this: It is why Train Depot is a good idea... if it works!
Is that when you have selected the RHTT, When I sect it this is what I get It seems that I no longer have the Standard 66 in the train depot, only the RHTT version?
One thing I have noticed is that some of the services listed as RHTT aren't actually RHTT runs. Services with headcodes that start with 6 (as seen above) are normal freight runs but they can use the dirty EWS class 66 which has the RHTT control panel. Only services with headcodes that start with 3 are RHTT runs (ie 3A21).
Yes cuz it's still a 66. It's an rhtt with the freight equipment during the fall season. Outside of that, it's still using a 66 which can sub into other 66s
