Out of interest, is there anyone in here from the Australasia continent?
Well, sometimes the weather can seem boring. That's weather. At the moment we're under the influence of high pressure so the whole of the UK is...
"the Russian treatment"? Russian routes have never been in TSC or TSW. Possibly because the countryside is depressingly flat and featureless and...
Sadly Grok has proven otherwise. I asked it for a tomato-based sauce recipe and it sent the police round to my house to arrest me for thought...
Can AI be angry? Joking aside. I agree, I immediately thought it was the You Tuber who presents his unreasonable/unfeasible expectations before...
A totally selfish view but there's so many types of traction that's missing in TSW while there are already some steam engines. I'll be more than...
I'm not going to put Matt on the spot here because if it's on DTG's list he won't be able to say so, just putting this out there..... Is live...
I do use Dynamic Weather but frequently find myself turning-off the mist/fog with the God Mode mod because it's far too common on UK routes. Fog...
My very hot take (we're having a heatwave summer here in the south of the UK): I find the drama-free Timetable runs so relaxing that I often fall...
I'd best start gathering photos for the Suggestion thread. Looks like they've replaced the old carriages but that was 23 years ago. [IMG]
I wonder what symbol DTG would next to the objective for "Random stop by the army at gun-point - Wait until 23:00 while the entire train is...
I recall someone from DTG saying that Liam (I think it was) had just done a thorough job on Barking Station and it didn't mean the C2C route was...
Oh man, now we're talking. The most beautiful railway I've ever traveled on was in Sri Lanka from up in the mountains at Badulia down through the...
I think that's a cracking shout. The TSC version while unfinished, is a wonderful drive.
So that doesn't rule out the possibility of....... [IMG] [IMG]
Maybe not Greater Anglia (although the TOC finishes in October), but possibly "First Great Eastern". Though I've convinced myself a 1990s version...
Thank you. On the plus side, it's the summer and I'm sat in the garden. The best kind of therapy!
I bet it isn't.
I tend to agree. It'll take a lot of work to make the LTS, lots of stations, lots of trackside assets, lots to go wrong with a very complex...
I would love to join the team (and have had a chat with Matt about it) but I'm currently on long-term sickness after my job broke my brain. I'm...
UK - Exeter to Paignton DB - One of the Berlin S-bahn routes US - None, hopefully we're boycotting that place until it becomes a serious country...
Joking aside, I forgot to include the famous landmarks of the Dartford Crossing and Tilbury Fort. Not to mention, Benfleet where I went on my...
Think TSW7 will focus on enhancing and extending existing route. ECML, WCML, GWR spring to mind.
You're spot on about TSC. The GEML got an excellent modernisation from the team at ATS with more to come. There's the extension from Ipswich to...
Is it time to start trying to find tenuous clues about the new routes? [ATTACH]
Frustratingly someone has made it for TSC but won't release it until there's proper rolling stock made for it. It's been finished for a while now....
While I've advocated for the LTS/C2C, having watched this LNER video earlier today the 124 mile Newcastle to Edinburgh section of the ECML would...
First of all, I worked for LTS Rail (which became C2C) for 7 years so the network has a special place in my heart. Aside from that it is an...
Hopefully the passenger model will be one of the big changes in TSW6. The lack of an update to passenger behaviour across multiple routes...
I put what I wouldn't want, here's my somewhat predictable wishlist. I'll go for modern era routes because they seem more likely and I'm aware...
I hope it's not a preserved railway. While they're fun to visit in person they're really dull in simulators. Likewise a remote, beautiful route...
I think if it is to be the GEML, they'd put it in the early Anglia Railways/First Great Eastern period so late 90s. That way they'd get away with...
I don't think they were taken off WCML duties until well into the Virgin era. So I doubt they would have been about in the sectorised era up to...
While I'd usually endorse any East Anglian suggestion I think your idea is not workable. *First of all, Norwich to Ipswich is the quietest part...
Apparently for such a long route the scenery at the Glasgow end would make a very complex DLC to make without disrupting their annual release...
My wife frequently drops the c-bomb especially when discussing politicians. She's from a posher upbringing than me so it's quite refreshing that...
To be honest, I've never gotten into a hobby with any thought for a resale value. I value things based on a pint of beer. If I go down the pub and...
An excellent suggestion. One slight point, if we're being absolutely spot-on and capturing the transition from older stock to new, then it would...
Maybe it hasn't been delayed at all. They've said there will be more news "soon". I'd say that "soon" is relative, it could mean a week, it could...
I'm with kilt46. I'm actually quite a comparatively late convert to TSC, I bought the original Railworks when it first came out, but didn't really...
My advice to anyone heading into TSC for the first time would be to pick an area and an era. A lot of Just Trains, Armstrong Powerhouse and other...
The clue was in "While it would cost Dovetail a lot of money". Everyone has a price, I negotiate claims involving commercial litigation for a...
I think that's a perfectly valid point. I think it also proves that the two simulators can live side by side. It's my opinion that DTG should...
They could be unbranded like the 350s. The Aventra is a modular kit train, its sounds are universal and while the 730 has the less-raked front end...
I'm pretty happy with TSW5, the dynamic weather behaviour sucks but given my interest in meteorology I'm probably difficult to please in that...
Those who wait for perfection spend their lives waiting.
I think a 730 pack with both types would be a huge boost for 2 existing routes too.
Route looks excellent, sounds like there's a lot of early morning/late night ECS workings which is good. Like the Frankfurt S-Bahn a choice of 3...
Wasn't 84/85 around the time of the remodelling of Crewe? Might explain why the timetable looks a bit odd with Runcorn stoppers going fast through...
It's a good point. LMR is not my area (region) of expertise so I'm now totally baffled as to what JT will do. Would Birmingham to Liverpool and/or...
