I keep coming back to this one because the physics really make for a great driving experience. It is a heavier train than the loaded departure...
There is something to be said for that. In my museum railroad crew experience, we use cars as a countdown and then switch to feet beyond 1/2 car...
I would be all in on that. It would be great to mix and match the horns and plug different horns into different liveries. I totally get it....
This is spectacular! It is all great, but I particularly love the new walls at Stratford, the freight wagons, and the gauges; it makes a huge...
This is excellent! I just enjoyed a wet and windy ICE run to Augsburg. Many thanks for this mod and all you do for the community!
Maybe I am not hearing the horns you are referring to. I don't own Clinchfield in TS, but I listened to some YouTube videos of the horn sounds on...
.... and loco horns that shake houses and echo through the valleys! I hope they can channel Searchlight Simulations TS horns.
While SPG is double tracked, the Shaw Mine services added with the Dash 8 create single track traffic patterns with wrong line running in both...
I too loved this run! Thank you fakenham. I was finally able to get the green over the 375. I timed the yellows into Sittingbourne, got there...
This happened to me tonight at just about the same place running on PC. I have a save from the stop at Sand Patch, so I may be able to try again.
This was a great study in physics. Thanks! I found a very similar ride with the Dash-8 up front; didn't I hear somewhere that the in game physics...
Try this from Monder and Lamplight in the Awesome Service Mode Runs thread: post #’s 18 and 213. You will need the CSX Dash 8 DLC. It is an...
This is fun. With two attempts, I peaked out here: [ATTACH] I really admire the crew going live online and attempting this challenging drive,...
Here’s one on my wish list of things that won’t likely happen anytime soon: Extend Sand Patch Grade to Connellsville and add the Amtrak Capitol...
There are many excellent service mode runs out there. What the good ones all seem to have in common is that they aren’t straightforward green...
That was sweet. Thanks! I now have over 700km on RSN in TSW2; it was a favorite in TSW and the runs recommended here have made it a favorite again.
Thanks! And here's the culprit: [ATTACH] The moral here is never ignore a sign by a magnet! It was nice to finally run this scenario on time....
And I thought it was just me! This happened to me twice at the start of the scenario and I was already crazy late with the passenger run before I...
I love the analog gauges and the better brake control; lapped breaks would be even better! There are some flaws and I would love an update that...
I am completely on board with this. Frankly, it has always puzzled me that TSW routes ($30 USD) are cheaper than TS routes at $40; however, I...
On the eastbound helper return services, you are allowed to go passenger speeds which can get you up to 79 on your way back to Cumberland. I have...
I am a big fan of the Baby Bullet; it is a great drive and provides some nice variety on Peninsular Corridor. However, I am an even bigger fan...
It was quite a challenge to run this without the HUD and your guide sheets were excellent. I held 278 for a few minutes more before heading over...
I am so glad to see this getting restarted. When Florida and Ohio turned down the federal rail development money, much of it got diverted to North...
If driven by AI, westbound U876A crosses over into the eastbound main near Mance at 15:44. It heads west and then backs down the Shaw mine branch,...
The Javelin looks amazing and should be a great drive, especially with the different power and safety systems; having the same service and loco...
Freight and Railtour services. ECW and NTP locos layer in. Nice!
What a fantastic run! This was my first real experience with freight on Peninsula Corridor and I really enjoyed the GP 38-2 - if only the horn...
I don't recognize the mission and, given that I tend to create problems rather than solve them :), I am unlikely to be able to help. However, if...
79 mph and Parallel Running Chaos on SPG You start by getting to Sand Patch. You can either take Q353 from Cumberland at 08:33 or spawn at Sand...
I would love this. It would be so easy to create interesting runs where you are dealing with traffic and adverse signals. All you really need is a...
In the last few weeks, I have done about 700 miles on Sand Patch and I wish I could rescind my initial vote for SPG. I just couldn’t get over...
SPG Chaos Run: Start in service I368, Eastbound Manifest Chicago to Cumberland leaving Rockwood at 14:47 hrs. It is available for any of the...
There is some really cool stuff in this route with the different signaling and safety systems, the PIS boards, and the functional crossing gates...
That one is interesting! FWIW, I have discovered that it tends to happen when I am on the spacebar and inputting another command at the same...
I have spent a considerable amount of time on Sand Patch lately and I have something of a newfound appreciation for it. There are so many little...
I believe that the trail loco in any rear DPU pair should register on the ammeter with changes in throttle. I know you have come across a number...
By the way, this thread and LeadCatcher 's list have made it into the updated TSW2 Starter's Guide by Rudolf :...
Thanks, Lamplight and Monder for getting me back on Sand Patch. The U877A-D runs were excellent, especially with that delay at the start and the...
To avoid giving up the service, try making the changes in the helper locos without actually sitting in the engineer’s seat. It can require careful...
Check out the excellent work done by Rudolf here: https://www.hollandhiking.nl/trainsimulator/ If you click on TSW2 Downloads, you will find a...
Don’t let Sam win again!
I purchased the C40-8W today and I enjoyed driving it. However, over the course of running 4 services, I experienced every one of these issues....
This officially tipped me over the edge to buy the C40-8. I love round analog gauges and can't resist encountering red lights because of a delay!...
Yes, the surprise is a large part of the fun, isn't it? One approach would be to try the services listed on LeadCatcher 's spreadsheet that is...
I agree with this. For me the value of any loco DLC is directly related to whether I can sub it into other routes through service mode. Having...
I love the reflections and slight dirt on the ICE when I drive placing the 3 cam just outside the cab. The sounds are amazingly from that vantage...
I ran M mode with the 182 and dawdled a bit, not uncoupling until 15:30. I had a good 20 minute wait after that. And yes, I believe the surprise...
What a great run! Thank you for recommending it. I was tempted to stop at the top of the hill and take the banker back down. Would you mind if...
My most enjoyable TS time was in the Cab of a Smokebox creation, usually the FEF, but often the Connie as well. I hope that TSW can bring the...
