It can be surprising how quiet a locomotive can be when it’s approaching fast until it’s right on top of you…the bell at least provides some...
I would guess there are indeed weather stations along any railway routes that are close to highways, but even if you just used the closest...
Would definitely love to see a Canadian passenger route. GO Transit (Metrolinx) often has social media posts about what it’s like to be an...
Real world weather would be awesome for train simulator and actually shouldn’t be too hard to implement relatively speaking. Flightsims have to...
To each their own, but even in Run 8 we don’t have to wait for the braking system to charge if we don’t want to. The great thing about options is...
I would love to see an option to accelerate initial brake charging, or some other way to avoid the initial brake charge time. I appreciate the...
The annoying thing about that Surfliner pack is I can't buy it being outside the USA even though I own Marias Pass, having bough it before the...
After getting used to some of the train handling, figuring out the need to wait for the brakes to charge before moving etc I am really enjoying...
I just bought the route and really enjoy it. The brakes on the BNSF ES44 are terrible though, I couldn’t get them to do anything at all and i...
Ok thanks everyone! I had figured they’d want to keep the high priority trains moving at full track speed, but I guess it doesn’t make sense to...
A question for those who know the line…is it reasonable to expect most trains going over the hill are adequately powered to maintain track speed...
Kicking horse pass would be absolutely amazing! Calgary-Field for proper division points but anywhere just east of the Rockies - Field would be...
Same boat here, I feel like I've done everything by the book but I can't seem to get any train moving. I've set up the lead locomotive as per the...
Good to see small steps toward GO service on Oakville. Hopefully it leads to more!
It’s possible to create a generic aircraft without it having the engines at a place on a wing that no aircraft has. I always hating seeing this...
Come north of the border to Toronto…plenty of options for high traffic passenger operations. Maybe one or two in Montreal too.
It’s likely not universal, but the ones I see tend to have mechanical bells. I would imagine that if the bell breaks it could be replaced by en...
It’s absolutely incredible and a great successor to the excellent FEF-3. Anyone with even a passing interest in steam should pick this up. Even...
I just wish they had whistleposts preceding them on CRR
this approach worked well for me, thank you!
Sorry I wrote that in the wrong order, notch 3 first, then release the brakes so I don’t go sliding backwards. The train just stays in place.
I actually tried releasing the brakes, putting the train in notch 3 (as high as it would go without wheel slip) then went away and ate supper. I...
I'm in the same boat, I can't get any southbound SD40 trains moving...they just won't budge on the starting 1.5% grade. No problem with the F7...
Yup, that’s exactly why modern locos don’t use the deadman pedal system. I think such a system contributed to the deadly rail collision in...
Is the rolling stock included with this route raildriver compatible?
Really enjoyed my first run (activity #1), heading back for my second go now.
That was my thought too, it seems perfectly suited to TSW’s strengths. It’s relatively short, has lots of timetabled services, and a lot of the...
No, but my point is that if many people can create quality horns as freeware, surely DTG should be able to figure out getting a few samples to use.
What legal concerns would be associated with a horn recording?
Thanks, yeah that’s what I was thinking they could do, quality horn samples shouldn’t be difficult to come by. Just look at the number of...
Do you mean modders can’t get access to the needed files or DTG can’t get access to an appropriate horn sound?
Hello, I've been looking at purchasing the Dash 8 but I really can't bring myself to do it as I can't stand the default horn. I have a good mod...
Hello, the new Salt Lake City extension looks great, but it looks like there’s no whistle post signs approaching grade crossings. The original...
