Not surprised San Bernardino currently has a big goose egg in there. The Boston Worcester route is way more interesting for US folks.
Looks like IRL freight on Antelope Valley to me. [ATTACH]
Sherman Hill will probably be needed for San Bernardino Line, as a shot shows Union Pacific equipment populating their LATC yard near Downtown Los...
Thing is though, there is no freight that runs the entire length of SBL. BNSF only goes to Kaiser yard plus locals that serve the industry. So you...
[ATTACH] One of the IRL freight DTG based their layer one The Southwest Chief does run on Cajon, but it takes a different route to Los Angeles.
The thing is, nothing runs directly on all three routes. Antelope Valley is Metrolink owned with Union Pacific Freight San Bernardino Line is...
California has lane splitting laws, with how bad drivers already drive, you can bet some poor motorcyclist is gonna get skewed by those...
Thats the neat part, they don't. [ATTACH]
They already have a decent GEVO model done. You forgot about the ES44C4? [ATTACH] Only minor changes would need to be done for it to cover the...
Sometimes that's a good thing. :)
Yeah 100% if that was done IRL, you would have both a high number of deaths and lawsuits ranging from that.
Im just excited to see if Diesel Workshop brings more content to steam, as well as continuation of their projects like the GP9 (Which is sorely...
At some point DTG needs to consider it, we can't keep getting routes where they can theoretically appear, then nothing is done for it. Only good...
CSX recently reopened Beacon Park yard, as it seems like they are using it to remove dirt from the area....
What are the expected playable freight layers for San Bernardino? Will it include BNSF's manifest between Barstow and Kaiser Yard (L-CAL011 and...
[ATTACH] So according to this, there are playable BNSF freight layers on the route. What they consist of, are yet to be seen.
The problem isn't really lack of help, alot of these commuter railroads have been very helpful. Its just the US content that is launching with...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
It may not be, but if it still has lazy scenery issues, weird freight layers or cut off spur's like AVL, then it would be another flop for me....
Simple fix for automation, set the route back. Union Workshop already has the E231 model used as AI stock on their Tokyo route for TSC, they...
Peninsula Corridor as its an urban based line, running east out of Los Angeles thru the sprawl east to San Bernardino. Only thing is its a bit...
It wouldn't be a problem if the routes were built with it in mind before hand, its how Boston Providence was able to slot the Acela in so neatly,...
At some point DTG need to let the "lack of services" part of LD Amtrak trains go and get a P42 or ALC-42 in game. With the announcement of the...
The only bright spot is the MBTA route, which IMO was more ahead in development than San Bernardino, and was the launch route instead, it could of...
They are already floating. [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] So, one thing to talk about away from San Bernardino is the upcoming MBTA route, which will be the Framingham/Worcester Line from Boston...
A few problems. 1. It may be too complex or daunting for most players. 2. Its limited in distribution being only on their site only, and not a...
Maybe because we are the 3rd stepchild in the TSW ladder? We don't even have a good dedicated 3rd party developer like JT or TSG. Only positive...
Nothing is new, all the freight content is layered in from older routes, mainly Sherman Hill for UP, and Cajon Pass for BNSF.
Just wish it wasn't a Quest exclusive, would look much better if they did a Steam VR port at some point.
Yeah, after going thru more stuff, there is at least BNSF layers, but no known playable ones. Also worth nothing this set is backwards as...
Voting no, the core updates seem bland and nothing really exciting. SBL doesn't have much going for it. The MBTA route might be decent,...
So went thru the video again, and some more things to point out. 1. There is no BNSF traffic at all at their intermodal yard in San Bernardino,...
Probably one of the only few positive's I can take with TSW 5.
Its not looking better with San Bernardino. Light poles in the middle of I-10? Really? [ATTACH]
So as far as we are looking at the outlook, the only thing new we know is the MBTA route.
Yeah nothing really exciting from a US standpoint, yeah the MBTA gets a new route, but no images or anything about it aside from some basic info....
Yup, Im disappointed. Nothing really that we already didn't know. Aside from the MBTA route, but thats about it.
All that waiting for the US just to be revealed what we already know, what a joke........
No, and I doubt it, they are for a VERY Niche group of Train simmer, and is probably not financially viable for them to bring it to steam, not to...
A broken image?
I've also heard Run 8's version of HSC is like 95% generic assets with very little unique things to the route. Only real thing I'll applaud Run 8...
[ATTACH] SS has supplied sounds for Machine Rail's N-1
Yet where did DTG get those GEVO's sounds from? Those were probably one of the better sounding freight locos that was been made for TSW so far....
I don't even see that as an option, that's about 157 miles including 2 dense urban centers.
I just don't see it since its a separate entry on the list to the direct stuff. If it is, then DTG is gonna have an even bigger outrage from the...
Probably more core updates followed up by announcements of 3rd party content.
That has NOTHING to do with SCENERY. Which can easily be researched by Google Maps, photos, etc. When you compare the unique assets on the side...
[ATTACH] A pair of Western Pacific GP20's lead a train over the Keddie Wye, sometime in the early 1970's Route: Feather River Canyon...
Pretty much the only thing that's improved with later freight routes is longer trains.
Separate names with a comma.
