Parts of the Great Eastern Mainline are frequently suggested. While it's a nice end-to-end idea, I would prefer a larger section of the line so...
Yes. the guard's van is in the motor coach on all of the Mk1 and Mk2-derived AC suburban EMUs. (302/4/5/7/8/10/12) If the route was based before...
That's a good idea. Maybe make the release the 2023 version of the route and a backdated 2003 timetable layer later, I think most would excuse the...
I'd be really torn, I'd love the 720 in either sim but a C2C with a choice of 312 and 357 to drive would make it a route I'd drive most days.
I bet it could be done without stitching the lines together. When you arrive at Peterborough the menu screen comes up and an option is "Continue...
Yes, Chat Moss but would have to be up to about 2000. Kings Cross to Peterborough pre Class 707. Cambridge to Peterborough or Kings Lynn (pre KL...
I have a sneaky gut feeling that the LTS (or C2C as it's called now) is on the "to do list" for TSW. The only version that's ever been in a train...
I think the gaps will start to fill up this year. Wales, most of the South West, East Anglia, Scotland north and south of the central belt. The...
This is why I'm worried about the GOBLIN route. First TSW route in what I would call "my neck o' the woods" so any really bad scenery could wreck...
I'm convinced it'll be Cambridge to either Kings Lynn or Peterborough in the early Network South East era with NSE Class 47 and Mk2 rake and a...
No, it was pretty clear within the context of the conversation on the night, they're building a route and using existing traction that's already...
Alan said it himself on one of his streams "The route will use stuff that's already in the game. Take that whatever way you want". Then he...
I can clearly remember someone at DTG saying that they'd be able to work on more DLC once they're happy with the core. It certainly doesn't make...
I hope so, Greater Anglia is a railway reborn, topping the punctuality tables. It would be good to celebrate the new era in Simulator form.
Ah, the sounds are as authentic as Rivet's Tube Stock then. Oh dear.
I've not been to Scotland since they were introduced, so I'm none the wiser as to whether it's realistic, so I don't mind it.
An extension to Barrhead and a modern timetable including 380s and 385s would be brilliant. It would make it a very nice little network.
Shame it's not Glasgow to Ayr. It's not been in a train sim yet.
380's recently started running the new Glasgow Central to Barrhead electric service. That's a 7 mile route though. The already very short GOBLIN...
Sorry me again, a question for either DTG or people who are well skilled in the art of building rail sim content. If extensions to routes would...
Matt P made a point of saying they are trying things they've not done before, which has given me some hope that we'll see an AC slam door unit as...
I tend to agree, while I would welcome a selection of services for existing locos in the timetable, I think everyone would be delighted with a...
Off thread but with reference to mention of a Class 321. If one is being made, I would wager it'll be a pre-Greater Anglia version due to the lack...
I agree. I think their route's dependence on other payware is the limiting factor for ATS on TSC. They're at their best when revamping and...
Love the idea as I drive the TSC version regularly, but you're looking at a Pre-Greater Anglia era for the GEML if it's released at all as DTG...
In reference to comments about change and "what's better? New or old?" stuff. I'm an old duffer, I've been on passenger service trains built...
No wonder my mate likes them. That and the big windscreen. Great Eastern drivers have been notoriously demanding over large windscreens which is...
I have a feeling the next UK release by DTG after GOBLIN will be a big one. This release feels like it would have only needed a small team on it...
I was being technically correct as Platform one has no scheduled services anymore and is therefore not open (though it wasn't fenced off last time...
While I've seen London Overground trains in the sidings at East Ham Depot, they are not based there, so I think a working East Ham Depot is...
Fully expecting a few puns on "Barking" too. One stop short of Barking. Gospel Oak to Woodgrange Park (engineering timetable) Barking Spider...
With DTG already working on the next few releases there's probably another South East route on the cards at some point in the next year. TSW has...
I was thinking more in terms of an eventual C2C line in TSW, that wouldn't include Barking Riverside anyway as C2C are never going there. I don't...
If they don't have the C2C license then they could still do the route but based in BR or NSE eras or even the early Green or Grey door plain white...
I think there's a good point about the success of this route depending on the quality of the scenery. There are lots of views of famous London...
We're slowly getting LTS! This will mean East Ham Depot to Purfleet will be in TSW, when GOBLIN comes out. Dear DTG, it seems a shame not to do...
The best you can hope for is 387s as AI, they're not going to build 2 new types of traction for this route. Barking will be very quiet if it's...
Yes, love this idea. Greater Anglia trains won't be involved due to licensing issues, but XC's 170s, Thameslink 700s and Great Northern 387s...
We've already had a route extension of sorts - the somewhat dull HS1 route got extended to Ashford. So it's possible but more likely to sold as...
Yep, that's the info I have too, so the chances of a post-2012 era GEML are very slim indeed. Though there's nothing stopping them doing an...
I understand that a previous comment on these forums about problems getting a license for the routes the 720 runs is true and therefore it's...
For those complaining about DTG being top-heavy, it's not a DTG thing, it's a modern business thing. There are so many managers with little to...
I hope so, I had very little interest in Blackpool to Ormskirk or Pacers to be honest but it's now my favourite TSW route.
There's no reason why DTG can't make the 720 for TSC and TSW. Package it for a new route in TSW. Then release a TSC version for their existing...
Totally agree. Either Rivet wrongly thought stopping at an intermediate station wouldn't be immersion breaking, they ran out of time or they're...
It would be a nice add-on I guess but I've never really enjoyed the TSC version, though it was never Just Train's best release. I just found the...
Preston to Carlisle in the mid-eighties with a mix of 86/87/APT and freight would be a great add-on. Though hopefully after they've addressed the...
If they're going to do a route out to Southend, I'd prefer them to do the C2C line. Much more interesting mix of passenger and freight not to...
DTG JD To whom should a strongly worded email of complaint be addressed?
Alan is based here in East Anglia and has a particular love of the railways in this neck of the woods. Other members of the ATS team are based...
