As far as I am aware the ICEs from Köln to Wuppertal don’t go via Düsseldorf. I would rather hope for Duisburg to Köln, via Düsseldorf. It would...
I wanted to reemphasise a little bit what we have learned on this (very interesting) thread and put this into perspective to the real world...
Did you read the fourth post in this thread?
Yes, it was advertised by DTG as a new feature of this route. Matt mentioned it during a stream, as far as I remember…
Strictly speaking, no. However, in this case you would have so many cars in G that you will hardly get a brh > 66. And heck, yes, I would be...
No, sorry, you we’re to quick reading it;) I corrected it already:cool: LL is still a P timetable
Regarding 2), the Fahrplan is irrelevant in this context. It is only relevant what you have your brakes set to on your train. If the timetable...
In addition to what cwf.green has already said, if your time table tells you that you are running in P but you opt to set everything to G, you...
Agreed, just because you know that you are driving in U, you do not know your max speed! The comment was only directed at the mode itself:love:
Just one tiny addition, if the whole train runs in G, PZB mode will automatically be set to U…
Ok, thanks! That makes sense, if they are D/A/CH/I/NL locos, they actually have 4 different pantos. Not much choice in this case…
Sorry, should have been more specific. In Germany this config is only applicable if one panto is inop. Was just wondering if Swiss use this as a...
The table I have posted above is quite old as well. Trying to get hold of newer data at the moment, would appreciate if someone would have data...
Does anybody know, why the heck you would opt for such a panto config?:o Is it a common Swiss thing? And if so, why? so many questions…
Absolutely. The one between the two arrows…
The lower distance is actually the measurement between the bogie pivot points. The bigger one is the measurement over the buffers, where as the...
Found this Wiki article in german: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB-Baureihe_V_60 It seems to suggest that the higher weight is indeed coming only...
Yes, I believe the lighter one became the 260 and the heavier one the 261. However, to my knowledge the frame was reinforced with the 261, no?!...
In the original post it shows the length written on the side and the length given by the game (last picture).
Interesting point! While the weight can actually correlate to real data, as the V60 had two weight variants build, one just below 50t and one with...
One more thing I did not mention was that those tables are only applicable block brakes. As the discussion was around cargo trains obviously they...
I think breblimator has hinted at the real problem:) you pressed the button at the correct time, as you can here by the acknowledgement sound,...
It seems the speed restriction was not acknowledged. If it would have been the 1000hz indication would have come up on the MFD, which it didn’t....
I think the way you are supposed to use the AFB is pretty much dependant in what type loco you are, what kind of train you have at the back, what...
I have certainly pushed my knowledge throughout this discussion as well;) Even though I have access to people who drive these trains, I often get...
Yeah, sorry, didn’t mention this, did I:o G allows a max speed of 90. I don’t know for sure, but I believe this is historical. Brake type G used...
Just talked to a friend, who is a train driver. He has confirmed that longer distances are actually considered for gradients, but he wasn’t sure...
It was always considered to be a weakness of the German system. Then again, we are here in the east of Germany, where it may have been different....
Here are the other two: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] And I found a mistake in my original post: 700m allowed 120kmh and 400m 80kmh. I’ll correct this I my...
Perfect, thanks! Will have a go when I have Access again to the game:D
Absolutely love the idea of adding more freight variations. Not sure DTG will add anything else then A to B freight stuff, however, would also...
Those charts are also available on the net, somewhere. I don’t have the Link at Hand and I am not at Home at the Moment but will post them later....
Nice review! The two things that stand out for me on BRD is the night lightning and the brake modes:D Especially the reflective signs are...
I will leave it up cwf.green to answer your specific questions. In turn I would like to concentrate a bit more on how the German system works. I...
I believe you see it only on Hl signals (at least I have never seen them on other systems). But you are right, DB Netz does not rule it out to be...
There is a similar signal in Germany. It’s not an official signal, but gives some orientation to whoever is responsible for clearing the train...
One thing that has always bugged my, also with other simulators, is the way the trains are held and cleared at a station. I have to break this...
I noticed that the EL1v / EL1 / EL2 signals just before arriving into Riesa (approx km 71.0 to 71.6) are missing. I checked and they should still...
Platform: Steam (all?) Loco / Cab: all Weather Settings: all Date : all Service Name / Time : all Issue occurred roughly how long into the service...
Trains coming from Riesa, pulling into the Weißig chemical plant sidings do not get the speed restriction of 40kmh indicated anywhere. This should...
Happens in real life too. Many reasons possible, usually technical problem with the cab car. found an example in Würzburg: [MEDIA]
Heard TrainSim-Matt speak about this subject during the roadmap stream:D Big thank you to take this into consideration! My suggestion is already...
Contrary for me, love the TSG contend!
It very much depends on the situation. In the example from above (hp0 with sh1) you would not need a written order. You don’t even need to stop...
That’s a good point. The word „Fahrzeug“ in my table means „vehicle“. A waggon can be made up of several vehicles. Hence, you are right with your...
This is interesting stuff (not many will think so, I guess:cool:). In case of the Waggons with empty/load devices, this has not always been like...
No, in this case your train BRA is to be set to P. Only if the whole train is in G (usually 1600t+) you are forced to mode U. The whole „front of...
Ups, you are correct. Didn’t realise that it was actually a permanently coupled formation, as I didn’t pay attention to the Sggrmss :o And of...
No worries, your English sounds perfectly understandable! TBH, I never checked in game for braked weight on the Waggons. I’ll only have the...
Yes, irl you will always find the brake weights written in one way or another on the side of the waggon. I think you have already identified all...
Separate names with a comma.
