What about AFB and power. Can thanks for the feedback. Looks like I have to wait another year until I buy it again;)

Other locos definitely do it. 101 for example, also in TSW. It’s something with the 185 that it seems restricted, somehow. And then, obviously not...

Have you tried releasing the hand brake? Sometimes different services are set up differently. [ATTACH]

I know, I was specifically talking about the AFB, nothing to do with LZB. LZB will take your BrH plus your brake setting into account, however,...

I think it mentions somewhere that TSW3 is first and that there is no fixed date for the TSW2 fixes... Edit: found it: Update Notes - Train Sim...

My experience with trains is: everything is possible… If you ask two train drivers the same question, it’s very common to get 2 to 3 different...

Certainly comes as a surprise. In my eyes there are things missing, though. I think the lights were wrong, the writing on the outside represented...

I am really interested to learn more about this. Do you have a reference to this? It seems to be very confusing to me. In post #19 I have...

According to ril483.0202 you are correct. It should only brake you below allowed speed: [ATTACH]

It could, yes, however, on German 185s they apparently do not. Taken directly out of the manual: [ATTACH]

Yes, I have to correct myself. On the German TRAXX F140 AC1 the AFB only directs the dynamic brakes, just checked again. This is not always the...

Maybe you mean something like this:cool:: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/buchfahrplan-tool-for-dresden-–-chemnitz.52161/ The community...

Thanks for the feedback. Once I have TSW3 as well, I will for sure try it out myself as well. But depending on the brake settings on the fright...

The problem with this tool is, its so essential if you want to drive trains realistically in Germany, that the question must not be IF you ever...

Probably true:o But in TSW... nearly always:cool:

Just wanted to put this into a bit more context. The reason to have AFB always switched on, under LZB supervision, is a safety measure, as it will...

Driving a cargo train is something completely different to driving a passenger, let alone a ICE train. Brakes are much slower in fright trains and...

Nice to see you were involved. Thanks for the insight! Especially looking forward to the mixed fright 4 run under PZB, obviously:D

Unfortunately not the first time we have seen that. Amazing that it seems to be so difficult to get something simple like that right…

Everybody is obviously entitled to their opinion, no need to argue with that. But the real question was, which one would you prefer?

I need to second that...

But there are also hourly ICE services between Würzburg and Aschaffenburg, let alone the cargo traffic. They also use the Nantenbacher curve. I...

I am wondering how many man hours have been buried here?! I guess It would make sense, from a business standpoint, to go back and develops this...

Would be really neat if we could choose some kind of factor, how often failures are likely to happen, in timetable mode.

Thanks, Lukas! Much appreciated for clearing this up. Also, quite impressed to how much depth DTG has pushed this system. Looking forward trying...

It was a joke! But without safety systems, being in a game, what is stopping you…

Do you know what happens when you drive without LZB? Does the modelled route take this into account?

Which would be a shame, as I understood in a preview stream that Matt (I believe) said it was enhanced quite a bit.

Good point, of course you can drive as fast as you want if you switch LZB off:D didn’t think about that.

Nice:cool:

Not at all. That’s the nature of this route, which was originally build for 250kph. In the meantime the rules for high speed lines in Germany have...

I second that. Don’t have TSW3 yet, but seem to remember it being said somewhere…

Which „iconic“ sounds are missing? I found it to be quite good, actually?!

Talking about LZB, could someone confirm what has happened to the much talked about dark mode of the signals along SKW LZB routes? I have not...

I think they follow the max speed of the loco and the line, whichever is smaller. I’m seriously hoping that with SKW these issues are past us, as...

I like this idea, and „trejncentro“ somehow sounds close enough:D

I wouldn’t consider myself a fanboy, either. But Zusi does a lot of things right, which TSW lacks, in my eyes. For example, I love to watch...

I don’t know what it is about Zusi, but I, too, like it a lot, especially when it comes to immersion. Of course, it does not have proper lighting,...

I would bet they are upgrading their streaming equipment :D

I don’t think that you make a good point in attacking more people who criticise you. I think accepting jokes about firing squads don’t make you...

Sorry, no joking with that!

Absolutely agree! „Firing squad“ goes beyond what can be called „acceptable criticism“! Absolutely valid points made unusable due to attacks like...

Was it just me, having already adapted to the Kassel Würzburg reality, or did the transition into the tunnel looked way better then on the Kassel...

In this case I hope DB has reserved enough buffer in the timetable;) I must admit, however, that I don’t know the route very well. Could be that...

True, forgot about S Bahn in Munich. I believe they are also partial blocks?! Not sure, though. Like with everything at DB, things tend to be...

I guess you are talking about the Ingolstadt Nürnberg Express, which, despite being a regional train, drives 190kph and has LZB equipment on...

In the Santiago de Compostela derailment they drove twice the allowed speed.

And this is the reason why on all other TSW routes with LZB there is no dark mode, as the blocks that PZB uses are the same blocks that LZB uses....

Basically, what LZB does is, it allows to keep block distances quite small, but it gives the opportunity to the driver to look ahead through...
