The class 45 is probably my favourite (though any other BR Diesel is very close too) and the class 66 my least favourite in my collection.
I think one of them is certainly the Jubilee driving restrictions James mentions (I am still interested in this mate but just haven't had the...
So that is why the ECML and WCML are being renamed the Yellow Belly and Brummie lines respectively next year then. Ah and then this would explain...
I haven't read into the names and why they have chosen them as frankly I do not care enough to, but some of them seem rather random: I mean what...
I know there were a West Country named Winston Churchill, and likely others named after politicians but as to why, I mean I don't really know to...
I must come clean here, I did have a rather naughty/rude reply typed out, however I decided to grow up and delete it! ;) I haven't experienced...
I must admit I don't think I have had that one yet, though there is plenty of time! I know our lives would be ever so much easier without them,...
Yes, I did enjoy it too, and have no idea what happened to it. It revealed enough to get some close guesses, but not enough for the 'surprise' to...
Even if they just gave us the code. They were good when we got those and could at least narrow what it might be down a bit.
No they don't work in game which is as said rather strange but not not surprising given it is DTG. Also with the powering down it is seen as good...
Obviously it's not in the airport security situation for me, but people with this mindset do my nut in. I had someone who when I were coming into...
I'll tell you one that people seem to be doing increasingly more on my routes is asking which platform they are on whilst having significantly...
I'll be honest mate I haven't a clue about that train at all. I would assume that, that train is different then (perhaps a loco rather than MU)...
Agreed, the poor timetable and lack of diesels likely didn't help either. I know these held me off from buying it with any urgency.
Peak Forest did horribly due to steam's appalling state. It is just an endless circle.
That thought just crossed my mind too, and that would be another good one. I am actually just going to add it to my post above.
A 60, 91 or 56 would be great for this. Can be used across multiple regions and eras and would be more interesting to have proper locos as expert...
I have only ever worked proper on the railways in my working life. Though compared to other responses that feels a bit lack lustre, so I will...
All those promises made to us, back when SoS released. How many came to fruition?
Because they are things which must be done, however there is not rule or owt giving a certain speed for signals in real life as. It is just a...
Why is this an issue? Obviously the brakes on the wagons were not proper and have now been fixed, but I don't see why the game should be enforcing...
More recently I went past a DC 60 between Peterborough and Doncaster. They are certainly about the area, though sadly not regularly due to the low...
They aren't exactly slugish things on diesel by any means, though they are bloody quick on the juice!
Oh a 25 would be a dream come true and perhaps more importantly show that commitment to things other than the modern day stuff. I do think I must...
Looking good mate!
However the English bits still maintain a Union flag. I don't understand this to be honest either go St George's flag for England, dragon for...
Yes, I am surprised they have lasted this long to be honest.
Both are very underused seeing as the times they run (particularly on the Stirling) are not useful for very many people. It is essentially a case...
Just to confirm it is Stirling and Glasgow going. Edit: Sorry, I am slow at typing, I see you realised yourself.
Mmm, yes I suppose seeing a Western on a freight in the Midlands from an EMT HST would be slightly immersion breaking! A 47 may just be able to...
Don't worry about changing that one: a bug I would happily accept in the release version! ;)
I personally think Skyhook are more likely to give the ability to the 158 to run on other routes than Rivet are with the 170 seeing as the 158 is...
I am sure he could make an exception, for authenticity's sake. I don't understand how you can't like a Peak though.
Although that is a dull section of track it does feel incredibly weird ending at Peterborough. Seeing as it is a new loco I feel this won't be...
That may actually be a good shout you know.
I would say we won't know for sure yet. I think a 180 is unlikely as currently they don't make any stops further south than Donny. A 91 would be a...
I don't think he meant it horribly mate. It can be very difficult to just read a block of text and some people struggle more than others.
Perhaps combine both mine and your names to get 'TSW discussion encyclopaedia', seeing as it includes more general threads at the top of the first...
This is a very good idea mate, perhaps something like TSW discussion hot topics index would do the job for the title? Also a pin in this section...
Yes, plenty to choose from! I personally prefer the look of the split centre head code (far right on image above).
I believe there may have been other differences but the key thing that defined the 45/1s from 45/0s were that the /1s had ETH fitted whereas the...
Thanks hope it were useful! No the 45/0 would essentially be the original form, whereas NTP has the 'improved' 45/1 and there are noticeable...
Yes, either of those would have really had me bouncing off the walls, but I must say I am a fan of the 104s and I generally am not as bothered by...
Fair dos to Rivet for doing the full circle. I think I'll certainly be keeping one ear and one eye open for this route and see how things shape out.
Only if! They are lovely things so they would be great to have in the game. Who knows!
I were going to put this on the 3rd parties thread, which can be easily found in the forum, but I thought, seeing as (from what I can see) there...
I refer you to this post:
Sorry should have made it clearer. I were referring to the likely hood of it actually happening in TSW, not whether they did of didn't run there...
I'd say that the 158 more likely than the 170.
Separate names with a comma.
