In my experience, when you change PZB modes, you need to turn PZB off and then back on for the change to be accepted.
I enjoyed all of these runs. Thanks! It is hard to stay on time, especially in the above ground section, and the signals can seemingly be...
Nice lights on the 182, including the gauge lights; this might be my favorite German loco. I hope we can get some passenger services for it in...
Also, I keep coming back to RSN. It gets better with age!
SKA. I can’t get enough of the German signaling and safety stuff. The ICE sounds are incredible - I typically drive on a number 3 cam placed just...
I have decided to finally learn how to drive on the left hand track and take on the UK routes! I have owned ECW and GWE far too long without...
At risk of going off on a further tangent, I feel obliged to defend Amtrak. Pre- pandemic, Amtrak covered about 95% of its operating costs on a...
I think we should be careful not to judge all high speed rail projects in the US by the one in California. It no more disproves the existence of...
I wound up running it with the 182. I uncoupled at 15:30 and the signal stayed red. After a lengthy but enjoyable wait rail fanning, the...
Great thread! Here is my suggestion at the Aachen station on SKA: Spawn during the fall at Aachen HBF at 1540 hrs. Walk out to the east end of...
This was a great run. I loved the delay until the 101 passed by, thereby creating a bit of chaos - I am a bit of a connoisseur of that. :)...
My wallet just got lighter! Time to try some UK action. By the way, on my HMA EB chaos run last night, I encountered this signal and haven't...
For those inclined to chaos, this one is a personal favorite: HMA Eastbound Chaos Launch with the Cab Car 766 in service 57901 starting at 05:54....
Thank you. This is quite helpful and I look forward to trying it out. I had been in the habit of riding AFB until the PZB took over, leaving me...
Welcome! If I may be so bold as to give advice, it would be to keep yourself open to other countries. I was almost exclusively North American in...
This is so cool! The more I drive the ICE, the more I really appreciate it. I like driving from the 3 camera; the sounds are amazing as you hear...
Not specifically a question for me, but I did endorse the post. Yes, you are right, that is steep for one scenario. I would gladly pay the the...
I got off the Trainz train a couple of years ago, but my experience in setting up dynamic scenarios was that they inevitably ended in red light...
I am on board with this. A good scenario is worth it for me, particularly if it takes advantage of TSW’s somewhat dynamic dispatch system that...
I took this 4 part recommended tour of RRO. Great runs on a route I had overlooked since TSW2. I had forgotten how much I like the scenic variety,...
Edit: I had many of my questions answered by Matt’s tutorial video - Ende stops flashing when you have acknowledged it, apparently there is no way...
Here is what I pass on to those I am fortunate enough to teach: Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.
"Doubling the hill." The first example that comes to mind is the 4% grade from Chama to Cumbres pass on the D&RGW narrow gauge. The hill was...
That is perfect and I completely agree. It is rather complex! Thanks for keeping the list. I am enjoying working my way down it. The suggestions...
SKA Chaos: ICE version I started in the RE9 service out of Aachen at 13:16. I waited for the ICE at 13:40. It pulled into the depot at 13:32. In...
I am having fun with this. I tried a little Eastbound SKA Chaos by starting in the 10:51 RE1 service. Then, I just sat there. Or, more like I left...
It is fun! Please let us know what you try and what works. I think I am going to try HMA next, but I need to learn the route better to see how...
Creating some SKA Chaos, Westbound Version: This direction is fun, but not quite as chaotic as the Eastbound Version I posted earlier. The idea...
Creating some SKA Chaos, Eastbound Version: The idea is to create some delays and put a regional in front of the freight you are going to drive...
First of all, this was my introduction to the BR425. What a fabulous loco. I love the sounds, the physics, and the way the cab lights flicker with...
I’m trying to create some havoc on HMA by delaying freights. I started off on DB85810 due to leave at 20:30. I waited until the regional 57067 was...
I linked both on the lead post. I caught a couple of typos: Entries 29 & 30 on Google Sheets should be HRR and 30 should be 87207. It is great...
This was excellent. Thanks for posting the recommendation! I used this run as an intro to HMA. I love the PIS boards: [ATTACH] The run was...
I just received my first dose of the new Covid vaccine. It’s been a crazy nine months at work and there’s nothing like getting in the virtual cab...
I prefer the Google Docs version, but I am most in favor of whatever is most convenient for you.
I put the link on the lead post. Many thanks for putting this together! Enjoy the Holidays with your Grandkids!
That is fantastic! Thank you so much for doing it. Do you mind if I link it at the top of the thread with an edit to the original post?
First, I ran DB87202, the WB Mixed Freight with the 182. Lots of AI traffic and plenty of 1000 and 500hz magnets. The service ended at Mulheim,...
I did the 20:23 ECS move from Duren to Aachen and it was spectacular. I had a lengthy wait at Duren to let some freight traffic go through, but...
I decided to run the 20:00 out of Koln to see if it would continue as the 20:43 from Duren to Aachen. The 20:43 must be a continuation of the...
A great run indeed! I keep coming back to RSN. It is the perfect mix of speed, variety, changing terrain, and challenge for me. I am glad it got...
I was glad to hear that a manual is coming. And, the varying gradient should make it a challenge to stay on time. Also, the "French Horn"...
I am really looking forward to seeing this – and running it! I think one thing too easily overlooked in all the gripes posted here Is the great...
The banking services on MSB are clustered into 5 groups of 5-6 hill "turns" allowing you to start in the banking locomotive and make a group of...
I love driving the 182 and sub it in regularly in service mode. It should be available on freight services for all the other routes except HKA. It...
Thank you for suggesting these. I really enjoyed all three of these runs! DB 80502 at 17:25 is spectacular. You start off switching with traffic...
CSX Sand Patch Grade GP38-2 Night Meet This one is a TSW shot, but I really love the reflections and the intstruments and just wanted to post it!...
Don’t delay too long or it will be gone. Be at Boele yard (the first waypoint) no later than 11:21 if you want to chase it up the hill, a little...
