Yeah, the only bit of the old Great Eastern area not in TS is Hythe to Clacton and Walton. Aka my local line.
Great points there, though I'm ashamed to say that I worked on LTS Rail before it was a well-run little route, though I didn't appreciate it at...
I'd buy it as part of a London to Brighton make-over, though personally if a branch was going to be added, I'd go for the beautiful Arun Valley or...
Poor decision not to go all the way to Leipzig, that would have been a superb route. It'll still be good but it's worth saying it could have been...
Euston to Watford Junction, it's gotta happen. The 313 is in production albeit in Southern colours at first. I can also see a North London Lines...
I've been lobbying for a Clacton & Walton extension to the GEML as it's the only electric section not covered by pay or freeware. I think packaged...
Word from GA drivers is that the Aventras are a beast to drive. That driving position for a start, compare that windscreen with the ones on the...
C2C. 1998
Ha, yes, sorry I was a bit tired. I'll do some editing when I'm properly awake.
There aren't many long stretches left. The WCML is about to be completed by Speedy Pete and the ATS team. Cambridge to London is coming, in...
Totally agree that a pro 47 is needed. I've been hearing for years that there's one coming. I'm really surprised JT haven't made a pro one for...
There aren't many on that list that I wouldn't buy to be honest. Non-electric US stuff basically.
Hopefully the Port Washington branch, bags of character, elevated sections, urban jungle, freeways, tree lined sections, semi-rural parts, the...
I can give you the TOPS classes that aren't in TS from my own list. Diesel Locomotives: 01,05-07,10-13,15-16,21-23,26,28/29,53 Electric...
I'll let you into a little British Rail secret. the Class 47/4 I drove had several functions that don't appear in the Train Simulator version....
I seem to recall there being some confidence that DTG intended to fill the gap in the SWML (and hopefully add the Alton branch). I know DTG won't...
If we're talking scenarios, they ran all over (though rarer in the southern half of the Eastern) They were the cross-country workhorses, Settle &...
Yeah, we're missing some slammer action north of the river. I was hoping for LTS Rail NSE era but Chingford would do.
I've just watched a cab ride of this route: [MEDIA] This is a fantastic route for TS. Self-contained too so you'd get away with just the stock...
This would be a superb one, especially as we already have Classes 315 and 317/1 in the game. It's fairly intensive but a good length for "there...
To be fair DTG announced this as the first of two fixes so there should be something coming soon.
I should add that the Bi-modes aren't planned for service on the Clacton line, however, there's a surplus of 4 car units after a few cuts in the...
My local line, I've said many times that I'd love this as an extension to the GEML. My preference would be early nineties with classes...
The 45 isn't great either. With Just Trains making the northern end of the MML, I think it's a good suggestion. The Peaks were great locos.
Is that the same person who's working on the 707? Both would be brilliant.
I would tend to agree that many releases give off the hum of a last minute rush job with TS and TSW. TSW2 has to be marketable, the longer there...
His first, rather jocular post on this forum and you can't even say "welcome to the forum"? Perhaps if your original posts avoided disdainful...
Yes, yes, yes. There's a freeware version of London to Cambridge that's nearing completion not to mention the forthcoming AP/GU Class 317/1 which...
Thanks Sam, It's a cracking route, just a bit poorly at the moment. I suspect the testers did all they could but in any business, the big boss...
If you love TS2021 that's good. You've got a hobby which is very important, you probably love trains and love driving them but you've also likely...
I think TS has one more surprise in it. Whether that be an upgrade to a massively improved legacy version or an Open Rails style third party...
It's a problem that afflicts many a creative career. Do you keep turning out stuff for the core audience or take some risks. The most successful...
I would tend to agree that the Bakerloo isn't the most interesting tube line, though Waterloo & City and Victoria are far worse. But I think it...
So, er, you're agreeing or not? As for "collectables", that's the difference between TS and TSW target market. Most TS players couldn't give a...
Some of us like the dark, troglodyte life underground.
There's a distinct lack of business acumen in here. Firstly, you might as well say that DTG should stop doing the fishing games and concentrate...
WCML South is a class freeware route but I'm really pleased this gets a stand-alone release. Maybe it is a little frustrating that it's a route...
Welcome to the weekend (nearly) everybody. There are loads of good suggestions for routes but there's a lot of reading in there, so I thought,...
I am enjoying the Bakerloo Line on TSW2, it's really quite addictive that little line. I won't mention the sounds, as I suspect enough people have...
Ugly train, but I'd still like it in TS, as it's becoming a big fixture across the North.
Perfect for Wherry Lines, GEML and of course the network of rural Anglia Routes that seem to be in development by the community. Why not go the...
I think the Department for Transport hold any BR licences but I can't imagine they object to blue/grey trains with the logo or old BR designed...
It would be good to have a SE London Network, I actually wouldn't mind a SW London Network too (for fear of upsetting our lovely Northern friends)...
I'd happily take any route or rolling stock unbranded if it increased the overall choice of DLC, it would be a matter of days before someone in...
It's probably a bit annoying seeing reskins and scenarios that you can't join in on. Fine for us oldies but I do have sympathy for those who are...
I find it hard to believe the updated Class 390 will stay on the shelf for long but as suggested above, an unbranded one will fine.
I hope the lull in UK content ends soon and that previously available routes tied in with licences are re-released in generic or BR branding....
I'm baffled by the argument that you can't wish for stock that will be from a different era on a route. Really I am. If an AM9 in original...
Bit of a mix of eras with that rolling stock. The West Anglia line was mostly serviced by Class 305s, joined in 1984 by 315s. 1986-1992 was a...
You'd be surprised how much rain does get into the London Underground.
