That’s my biggest issue with the TSW version. In TSC the sounds are more balanced. Doesn’t help in the TSW version the switch to turn off the...
Let’s keep our fingers crossed TSG aren’t using Caterpillar sounds, then!
Just hope the sound is good. Didn’t the 218’s get additional silencing at some point? I know the one in TSC that came with the Kiel route was on...
The one thing on NTP that could do with improving is the tunnel portals, they do look rather odd. And of course with so many tunnels and bridges...
Still one of the best UK routes IMHO. Needs a bit of a refurb with TOD4 lighting and a better timetable but it captures the essence of BR Classic...
Have you opened the dampers to at least 25% front and rear? Need to trigger the fireman (if using so called manual mode) by opening the firebox...

I would take unbranded freight layers over none at all. Paint in historic New York Central or Pennsylvania colours but minus the name, would do...
Funny anecdote on that one. Back when I was distributing my MSTS routes on “at cost” CD-ROM’s, I eventually had a knock on the door and it was two...
Nice suggestion but any heritage railway is going to impose the dreaded 25MPH speed limit which is the main reason, despite the beautiful rework,...
Too true. I remember taking nearly a year on the first Cambrian Coast for MSTS with 3DTS. It cut into my spare time, resulted in hours upstairs...
Depends on the extension. Now if PFR did get the Derby to Manchester treatment, with a proper Blue Pullman unit and/or a green Class 45 that’s one...
Maybe not quite the same but I’ve had several instances now where I’ve spawned into a diesel loco hauled timetable run or scenario and the loco...
Keith Ross was a route building master to get all that done, along with the complex that is Carlisle. A shame DTG can’t get him on board to work...
The most recent worst example still has to be Peak Forest. Finishing at Ambergate made little sense, whereas Derby to Chinley would be far more...
His FB group is also closed to browsing unless you sign up. I was a member briefly, but the first time I put a cautious comment about the business...
I'll see what's about on the others, the other issue as already discussed is quite often what is available ends up with you driving the same short...
Well the quintessential problem with MP raises it's head again. The only ET22 run I could find on EN1 was approaching Lazy. On a section of line...
Who said anything about buggering things up? The point being if I install a freeware route that brings in a dozen or more different dependent...
When they were in power from 1997 to 2010 they did nothing to renationalise any of the utilities or organisations that had previously been...
Some AP is good. The one that disappointed me though was their Class 205 Thumper. It just didn’t seem to have that throaty purr of the prototype...
Er, suggest you read the title. This is the UK thread.
I stand to be corrected but in all likelihood ATS is a bunch of people working from home in their spare time. So items like rent, power etc are...
Certainly struggling! Not sure what the gradient is there but my train in the game was about the same weight, 2500 tonnes.
Managed to get a bit more done with the ET22 around Lazy. But the problem with freight workings is that you’re constantly getting slowed down and...
Oh I agree to some extent, don’t want to unduly restrict content creation. On the other hand, it’s not really right there is no regulation or...
Anyone wishing to make and sell content for the game needs to obtain a commercial licence which could define items such as selling price,...
In some ways it’s a shame DTG or their predecessors didn’t operate just a little bit more control over what could and couldn’t be done with the...
I knew someone would be along to correct me!! :cool::cool::cool: And a loco we definitely need in the game and absolutely no compromise on sound…
Perhaps his VAT and income tax bill finally arrived. Yegods, makes the £15 I paid for the SimRail ET22 last night seem a bargain (and a brilliant...
Bless you my son. And apologies for The Inquisition! :) Let’s not get too incensed, boom boom.
Yes I think the new LIRR will be great, the BCC of New York!
I suspect DTG are highly unlikely to want to engage directly with said individual (or anyone posting random reviews, good or bad) on various...
Until the GM Class 59’s arrived, fairly sure all UK diesel locos were 4 stroke cylinders. The Class 45 on NTP has a great cooling fan sound which...
Just had a quick run with the ET22. Very nice though a bit hampered by picking a train running through Julius which is plagued by 30 and even...
Think OP needs to reign in the enthusiasm a bit, stop trying to be the only voice on the forum and posting polls, most of which TBH are more like...
I did ponder that one way round might be if we get a scenario editor with a reasonable interface, to create a series of 40 or 50 minute chained...
It's a well created route but... Bought it, done about half a dozen of the Journey runs and... Haven't been back. Got boring very quickly,...
Drain your bank balance!
Can only really repeat what I said earlier, it's very subjective. You can also get away with more when it comes to audio with an EMU (within...
But it's still not the same as picking up the same train where you left off. You have to make a note of where you were or the last station you...
Not sure I would have much use for a longer LGV route. Would rather if DTG decide to revisit France they do one of the classic routes with Corail...
We can but hope!
Except where the SPAD is due to an error or deliberate necessity to make the signalling work! Certainly true of the Wycombe line as when I did...
And getting more of a Journey Mode. Was really surprised more 612 elements weren't included, instead we got those tedious all stations 100 minute...
Another advantage of Steam ... if it turns out what you bought sucks, or just isn't for you so long as you refund within two hours and haven't...
Peterborough to Doncaster is 90 miles.
90% sounds good.
Excellent!
