Upcoming Release Tsw5 First Look - West Coast Main Line

This could've been revoked due to what LNWR wanted on their end, could be distances, trains, safety systems, map quality issues.

But it also couldve be revoked for financial reasons or maybe the team didn't approach them in a certain way big companies and corporations can be a funny with each other but I'm hoping they get the branding as soon as possible or have talks of a new deal

 

Exactly the point I’m trying to, and obviously failing, make!

 

What choppy waters?
GWR contract expired and at the time, GWR were busy with internal affairs and weren't interested in renewing it.
I don't see how that's choppy waters.

 

There's alot of speculation going on about the revoked licence,iam not an expert in these matters but I bet it's a big fat contract with alot of dotting the "i"s and "t"s so to speak,It's important to have company names in the game for emersion, that goes without saying ,but it's not a deal breaker IMHO

 

I think you'll find the licence was agreed between LNWR/WMT's parent company Abellio as the former franchisee.

However the DfT are now running LNWR and have revoked all commercial licences for all aspects of the brand as they await the law to pass to allow for renationalisation.

 

The DfT don't own LNWR yet.

 

The DfT have a overall controlling stake in the future of the route. They've revoked a lot of commercial agreements with a lot of outside companies that aren't just in video games across a whole range of products.

 

But they don't own the companies themselves, apart from the select few under their operator of last resort.

The DfT only own the franchise, not the company running the franchise.

 

Ain't it supposed to say where the train is going and what the next stop is on the train door. As the class 390 135 is going from Glasgow Central to London Euston, but the next stop says on the destination board on the inside of the train and also the platform destination board say the same thing as motherwell so that sounds right except from the train doors, as it's making me confused lol

 

I think they said this was going to be fixed in the first route update in the coming weeks/months.

 

This 390 seems to be hungry for buffers on platform 14 at London Euston ( x box series X post patch update )

 

That was reported a few times here is where I posted several screenshots, and it is reported to being fixed on PC.

That's really disappointing - they said the update fixed this.

 

Yeah it was in free roam I spawned in at 0755 I think

 

Why are these prerelease threads not locked as soon as a DLC is out? Adds to confusion, there's on official feedback thread to post in.

 

Out of all the platform numbers and all the people on this forum, it makes me smile that it were you and platform 14.
