Oh wow, that would be fantastic. Is Armstrong Powerhouse-style mappings on a UK keyboard do-able?
True, though you're looking a relatively small window of time given that the average service life of the 14s was 3.5 years.
I love the idea of faded glory lines. Woodhead Blue Era in TSC was one of DTG's crowning glories. It's nice having run-down lines as well as new...
Well...yes, quite. I was trying to keep politics and war out of it but railways, politics and war have intertwined histories. Hopefully all...
Turbostar v Electostar. Same manufacturer, different form of propulsion, mostly the same components apart from small differences to detail,...
I realise English might not be your first language, so you may not appreciate how "And I need an answer please" would, in conversation, come...
I bought the non-steam version from TTB a few months ago so I'm interested to know from someone with the Steam version whether the key mappings...
I like the idea but if we're making a segment of route, it would be better to have it reflect at least one realistic type of operation. AFAIK...
The very same. I think it would be a struggle to model a 357 from a 170. The latter's carriages are 3 metres longer than the former.
Wouldn't be particularly realistic to have the 150 on a modern Scotrail route. They left Scotland over 2 decades ago. It would have to be a...
I was actually talking about the quality of the route. This is clearly DTG's interim UK release, the first they've done since JT's which was a...
Riviera would also be good. Wouldn't mind Leeds to Carlisle via Settle too. But LTS first please.
GOBLIN will be the first DTG UK release since JT's Blackpool Lines which has raised the bar in terms of quality and value for money and the London...
I can't speak for Matt P, but I am a similar age and grew up about 3 miles from him. If he's anything like me he'll be a big fan of London...
It's a fact of businesses that they will be looking hard at sales figures and going for what shifts units, they probably have access to play time...
"If it does come out this year I will donate £50 to a charity of DTGs choice as a thank you." You know what? So will I. I've said it before and...
I think C2C is finally in with a shout. Not only a superb network, it would showcase their new tidal system between Benfleet and Chalkwell...
I wonder whether AP are involved with the ATS GEML upgrade and their Wherry Lines extension to Sheringham. Whatever happens it's a superb idea...
Yes, while the 710 has shorter carriages and one fewer pair of doors, it would make a good stand-in for the 345. Get some IETs working on diesel...
I think the business case is more nuanced than them simply not having time or money. Train Sims remain a niche market. If DTG can grow and...
There's a Berlin route in the works, it's mentioned in the full article.
As a commuter who uses modern trains, I've got to say I'm not going to miss constant announcements on the 710. They are essential for some...
I rarely say this about a suggestion but it's a dreadful idea. 1. Automated railway, you'd have a couple of manual drive scenarios but no...
A more general question that's been bubbling in my mind. Are suggestions for DLC made in this forum collated and assessed for viability. I...
If they want to package the Class 91 with the short extension to York, it would be rather good. Donny still doesn't feel like enough of a...
Delighted to see my birthplace, Barking, in TSW4 at last and I'm really looking forward to driving an Aventra. I do wish it was the far more...
A Tamper with an engineering works pack that had scenarios on each of the modern UK routes would be amazing.
I'm truly humbled by your superior talent at this. I'm one of those contestants who's giving their partner the frustrated "it was obvious when you...
This is like trying to unpick the clues on the gameshow 3-2-1. Desirable - Could mean a Desiro. Highly - no other Desiro goes higher-up the UK...
The TSW and TSC teams at DTG are good people. Constructive criticism is to be encouraged and there's lots of it within this thread but I don't...
Okay, so I'm lukewarm on German routes as I prefer more southern European railways that sadly don't appear to be within DTG's remit. So should I...
I like the idea behind the naming. I'm "woke" and proud of it. Not that I've ever heard a more satisfactory definition of the term that doesn't...
Yes, maybe some post trains with 31s too, they were a common sight on the wide middle platform at the old Liverpool Street that had a taxi rank on it.
BR Blue with Cravens DMUs, Class 308, 309 and 312 please. Norwich services with the 47 and the usual mix of Mk 1 and 2 coaches, just like it was...
We're getting a 170 but no sign of its hybrid Networker/Turbostar predecessor.
As an amateur meteorologist I was pleased that Dynamic Weather is a feature but it's still very unrealistic. My biggest gripe is that most...
Oh I still love London, it's my birthplace and I miss it if I don't visit for a while but I'm happy being an hour away from it from a peace and...
My favourite bit is going over the M25 at 90mph on the Down Fast line! This might be because I was born and raised in the capital. Nowadays I can...
Unless things change with licensing (and they can) any East Anglian line in TSW wouldn't be in the modern era. It's a big gap in TSW coverage.
Yes, along with not doing the Harwich branch they've also said it's not possible to add Clacton/Walton as it would need to be a completely...
I would make only one correction/amendment to your list. A Class 442 in BML would be brilliant. As would a 4-VEP (Class 423 "slammer") I'd love a...
Agree to a point that late trains are down to poor management, but having worked in British Rail's Safety team I can confirm that passengers,...
Well, DTG did recently reveal that they can now model tidal water. They wouldn't have worked on it if they didn't intend to use it. We're getting...
Oh come on. There are plenty of very serious, interesting topics on this forum. Why can't there be a less serious thread for a bit of social...
Southern Region? Tsk. But seriously, it would be a cracking section of the SWML. While it's a very well made DLC I find the TSC version, which...
Yeah, let's not get to spikey, this is a banter thread.
Well, DTG seem to have a good relationship with TfL. TfL make much needed money out of licences and TfL has a lot of fanatical transport...
Ooooh, can we guess the date and price? So I've got 21/03/24 and I'll plump for £24.99. Not quite full price.
I've got the same plan. I like to call it advocacy. I have an opportunity to post about wanting the LTS ("C2C") in TSW until DTG get so fed up...
I'm going for March 21st. No insider knowledge, I'm off for the 5 days before and return to work on the 21st so it would be my luck.
