Just wondering whether Keith Ross, the guru who built the TSC version, has been involved with the project at all?

If included in the timetable, outside chance of Class 31 on short Regional Railways formations covering Preston to Carnforth - Furness Portal and...

I definitely support the idea of network routes to give a contrast to the longer runs. Several come to mind… more could certainly be done with...

As mentioned earlier I think at the time the north Lancs branches were still operated by heritage Class 108 DMU's, maybe the Class 105 Cravens if...

Boston actually sounds quite good and think one I'm looking forward to. SBO - well there will be the inevitable comparison with Run 8, pretty...

Challenge with Wales is that many of the more scenic routes have a very sparse service. Central Wales would be great, but four trains a day in...

I remember the old Amiga (Emulator) Train Driver 3 used to allow you to set up simple station name announcements which used the Amiga text to...

Well for me BR Blue is the grail anyway, sectorisation hailed the start of decline into privatisation.

Has Save Game been addressed? 1. More slots. 2. Eliminating the failure to restore objective data on a subsequent run.

Despite my reservations, as a former ATW Duty Control Manager (before jumping ship to NR in 2006), I've got to have this. Certainly a very...

Ah but the caveat it’s probably a Mark Three but that will do for starters!

Top man, thank you!

Are we getting opening cab doors (as on the MML HST) so the engine noise is a bit more audible, or maybe buff the cab sound level a bit, please?

Well Flight Sim World never quite made it to the jet era before DTG binned it (or more likely handed the IP back to MS and Asobo), so doubt we...

Ah, excellent. My only (slight) concern is that the 87 doesn't sound like the default in TSC with the fan just whirring continuously, but per the...

Icing on the cake for many of us "oldies" is of course the JT WCML Over Shap. Wasn't joking when I said yesterday this could be the first nail in...

OT a bit but I've now got the shunt moves thoroughly mixed up at Carlisle, trying to get the portion off 1S04 onto 1S06, in the meantime 1M14 sat...

I know from travelling in and out of Euston in the early 80's how complex things are and these days you haven't got the Rathole or Down Carriage...

I wonder if we will finally get a buffet/restaurant car, even if Mark 3? And as mentioned earlier, a Mark 3 sleeping car pretty much essential...

That's a little... disappointing. I would have hoped for at least one of the northern branches, Rhymney being the most scenic and not going to...

APT a bit limited TBH. My money on an 86 or possibly a Roarer, but as Matt notes, a Class 25 an outside possibility. "Just" take my money already.

Oh. My. Lords. I would put the famous quote from Top Gun when one of the pilots got excited during a high G turn but had to change it to family...

A little appetite whetter... screenshot from SimSig Carlisle which is set around 1980. Southern approach from Penrith, totally wrecked by bungling...

WCML over Shap, which I can’t see listed. Runner up Cardiff Valleys.

Was pondering earlier what this will offer as I can’t see it being the entire network, nice though that would be. Think it’s a given we will get...

Imagine how much happier the US customer base would have been with something like FRCE?

Actually not too bad as can probably be done in a single session. Useful if we still only have the one save slot to contend with.

Actually will be interesting to see what they put on the branches, namely Windermere and Morecambe. Probably the 142 as the Met Cams were fairly...

Though I last travelled by train around Holland in the 1980’s I am really looking forward to this one. Flat terrain doesn’t necessarily equal...

Gone with the Deluxe pack for starters. WCML over Shap an absolute must have. The route that might tip TSC in the dustbin. Cardiff Valleys also a...

That’s an interesting point, actually. I wonder if the Class 47/4 will sub in on inter regional services. IIRC the actual WCML service north of...

It was a tongue in cheek comment and what I really need to do is upgrade my PC (or replace it) in readiness for Win 11 including adding more hard...

More likely to see a 40 or 47 between Preston and Carlisle than a 45, certainly on freight workings or summer relief trains.

This. Really can be no other. With some Mark 2 coffins to haul.

I am quite hyped for TSW5 and ordered the Deluxe version. Even more hyped for the forthcoming content, particularly WCML over Shap. However that...

Well it takes the same amount of time to create a mile of route regardless of how fast the train traverses it. More in the case of built up areas....

Seen that Jamie but it is a bit confusing as the “Free Starter Pack” kind of looks like a header over the Regional Packs. Maybe it needs to be...

Perhaps more clarity is needed then, I certainly read it initially as you can choose a route with just the update and was dead wrong! DTG Jamie...

Right, well that's the Deluxe version ordered for me.

Then I was reading it wrong, sorry. The starter packs plus one route are presumably the same as last year then - £30. Sorry to have confused....

That's how I read it. For existing owners if you take the free starter pack within 30 days of release you can choose one of the three regional routes.

This time they have judged things very well and I mean let's be honest, the further enticements of WCML over Shap with an 87, Cardiff Valleys and...

So a free core update and a free choice of one route to go with it is rubbish? Really? I think this time DTG have actually nailed it and listened...

Not as I read it. You can choose one route out of the three with the starter pack, so for example you could get WCML Euston to MKC free. But if...

A little disappointing we didn't get the route through to Rugby or at least Northampton, but as discussed extensively after the beta leak Euston...

Class 50 the most logical choice though realistically would have to be added to DLOGW to fit in the correct era. Otherwise it's really only going...

Personally I think it ought to be added to WCML if purchased in the Standard Bundle, but realistically that's not going to happen. Currently...

:D:D Well I think there is a fair bit to triage out first, haven't touched Derail Valley in over a year.

My TSC install is in danger to make room for all this lot! Well SimRail might be first for the chop. Overall quite pleased with the...

Depending on era you have multiple trackage around Carlisle and I wonder if Kingmoor Yard is included?
