Yes, I think you’ll get the most pleasure of of TS by forgetting about the F4 HUD, which basically drives all trains the same way, and look for...
Is that a sort of Photoshop for TS?
Here are my suggestions: CATEGORIES: VINTAGE 3) Electric - Woodhead Class 76: notching through series and parallel, plus regenerative braking,...
Obviously this will depend on which trains we’ve got/tried, and period, but let’s see your suggestions for which are the hardest/most challenging...
Are those AP bins? The texturing is so realistic :)
My bad, sorry was replying in a rush. Apologies!
I prefer a challenge too: the most modern loco I’ve tried so far is the Class 87, and will venture into the Star Trek Voyagers and what not in due...
Will add moon gazing on my journeys, too! Nice as it was, the crescent you posted earlier was too big.
Yes, I just looked at the level of detail and thought that has the hallmarks of an AP cab.
Is this an AP one?
It's a while since I've seen 2001.... Here's a full moon on the WCML yesterday, for example. [ATTACH]
I don’t bother about the points, it’s just how interesting the scenario is, have tried both types.
Not sure I’ve seen stars yet, but I haven’t been ‘out at night’ with clear skies. I do hope the constellations are astronomically accurate? :)
Good idea to include the real view too, to compare.
I also like to see and ‘use’ the real handles, where possible, and I usually can get a good compromise where maybe the upper third of the window...
Thanks for the tip Eric - I normally would - that was just a Q&D way of getting it uploaded. I was being lazy and just did it the quickest way....
It’s becoming a bit like one of those ‘spot the five differences’ games! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thanks a great shot, pookey, where's that?
Just join back in when you can, Eric, no rush!
Who’s responsible for sticking full moons in about every other scenario I’m on in TS: is that the AP Sky and Weather enhancement pack, or the...
Eric can still tease out more detail if he wants. Game will probably go quicker with two to guess.
Has anyone else tried the Class 09 shunting scenario below? I was near finished, but got stuck on step 10 out of 11, when I have to couple one...
Yes, I was agreeing with you :)
I think the main points about the number one cab come from the real world: radiator end, proximity to certain circuit breakers, and what not. I’d...
Unless you’re able to do cold start variants, where there might be issues with moving from cab to cab (eg battery isolation switch might be in no...
Yes, the SLN are Career scenarios. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
nihon no ressha ga arimasu ka? A Japanese train? Presume it’s from the Story of Forest Rail - Kiha 750 or 720? (If that’s right, someone else...
If someone’s got another one ready, please fire away!
If no one guesses in a day, the photo can be expanded till someone gets it.
Great advice here. Having just backed up RW folder, I’d just add it’s definitely an overnight job: leave it running. Although it might be from a...
Seconded. Which is the crane scenario in your shot?
I’m stumped, sorry. Very well conceived idea, though.
Seconded, there'e something very distinctive about the 81-84. Just posted about it too:...
Thanks. I’ve still to explore much of these other routes. Do there’s no real way to know if the other route NLs work, without trying, I guess..
You know the nose end is the front?
Not at all, thanks for posting. I’ve subscribed to a number of these already, and look like I’ll add many on the list.
Smart take on the theme- a diverging line.
It’s hard to say, as we all have different settings. Have you kept the reverser low? Perhaps try the same loco on a QD, see how it performs and...
It's only about the second or third time I've tried my hand at a steam loco - description says it's "easy", but I'd say it's quite hard. The...
Think you’re on the right lines, there, as it does look very familiar: I “was there” a week or so ago, but can’t for the life of me remember...
Blimey, too easy, you insult my intelligence sir! :) I’ll see if others know it, err, too.
To someone from the far north, there appears to be no end of DMUs and EMUs, so having at least one 81 to 85 should be. (Maybe one day I can learn...
I did a little summary of numbers and years when fully withdrawn: 80 - 1 prototype, built 1951, rebuilt 1958, w/d 1968 81 - 25, 1959-64, 1991...
I feel very untraveled- have no idea about any of these!
Sounds like a good plan: it’s good to have a teaser that isn’t guessed within five minutes, though. Next it’ll be ‘name that bogie’!
That looks good, thanks Peter. Is it still available somewhere?
What kind of loco is it? I’ll give it a try later in the afternoon .
I don’t know if it’s my driving, but does anyone else find that as soon as you put a Class 76 into notch one, there’s a bit of a jolt? If this...
I came across this interesting site: https://www.aclocogroup.co.uk/
We’ll have to put dunkrez to work on it, after he’s finished the Class 26 of course :)
