I dunno, "Das Boot" seemed to work.
There was a difference, not necessarily in speed (in a way, there still isn't), but rather in comfort. Simply put, n-Wagen had all the creature...
A peculiarity of historical politics put Salzburg (for a very long time an independent prince-bishopric) in Austria, while Berchtesgaden to its...
While it should be possible, I'm not sure if 111 with n-Wagen services will be included, since the n-Wagen IIRC are all now owned by various local...
Before PTC (and on the secondary lines that still don't have it), the only "enforcement" was the conductor's stern admonition. Now of course even...
I've ridden that line; the mountains around Salzburg are spectacular (haven't you seen The Sound of Music?)
I agree with the first two posters (speaking as a semi-prolific livery artist myself). The new UI is a horrible step backwards. Although frankly...
Well, duh. Nobody runs a railroad directly through mountains if they can go around them. Especially if it's a heavily trafficked mainline, not a...
2013 is a bit too early for the Vectron
Union.
What other nation has 260,000 km of track?
One wonders- but doubts - if when they redid the GWE timetable they adjusted the Class 166 station timings to reflect the more realistic revised...
I seriously doubt it. Layers have to be built into a route's timetable. This means that in most cases an older route will not have a layer for a...
As a general rule of thumb when I don't have the energy to generate my own Fahrplan according to the elaborate calculations and tables, I just...
Oh, those would be the old Rhein-Ruhr S-Bahn coaches. Yes, I figured not relevant to Austria. (Tatsätlich, ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch lesen)
If by X-Wagen you mean the old DB m-Wagen (UIC X), those were retired years and years ago, except for the ones rebuilt for the Interregio (and...
In the first instance, Federal regulation. Way, way back in the 1950s, Unle Sam decreed that any train running at 80 mph or more would have to...
Oh, if only TSW gave you basic Buchfahrplan info at the start of a run!
Almost 3 years: that has to be a zombie resurrection record!
80 mph is ~130 km/h, a decent clip.
Let's wait until it releases, shall we? This strikes me as TSW's first direct head to head challenger, doing pretty much the same thing as TSW...
There's merit in that suggestion. The US has more than a few small RRs which are quasi-heritage lines that also do legit local commercial work,...
AIUI, the time slip is only one year. 2013 was the last year DB ran the trains before the private TOCs came in, but the Salzburg Hbf...
Not until it has decent singleplayer.
SOS came into existence because then-Big Boss Paul Jackson wanted it. He said his dream was to stand in a recreation of Crewe station with the...
I should mention that I'm using hardware upscaling with the in-game percentage at 100%
Question about priorities: when there are conflicting commands between the Godmode dynamic ini and the fixed engine.ini file, which setting...
FWIW, in 1080 I can run medium on an RX 580 (GTX1060 equiv), as long as I can live with 30 fps.
A general startup test cycle, like when you first start your car and all the warning lights briefly come on.
Well, the 243/143 was actually purchased by DB, along with its 112 derivative. This was a political decision: the government wanted to keep the...
Just that. It is, simply put, a pain to have to quit to the main menu, wait while it loads, then relaunch the route and wait through more loading...
Although following political unification DB and DR coordinated operations prior to the merger, and some DR rolling stock did work western routes,...
If DTG have reached the conclusion "steam doesn't sell, so it's not worth pursuing," then they drew exactly the wrong lessons from Peak Forest....
I have a suspicion that Diesel Legends was released in an effort to recoup some ROI from locos that hadn't been selling well.
That certainly isn't true of Germany, where two of the last three routes, and the next one, are all vintage/have vintage locos. (add in the...
To be fair, they did correct the performance-killing grass on Sherman Hill
I fear we ticked him off and he rage-quit the Forum.
On a 1.5% down grade
Guys, there is only so much a GPU can do, especially the Series S's rather underpowered chipset. You can have a decent framerate and live with...
It appears also that VVRR is keeping 18 trainsets in reserve as substitute trains when needed.
Hm! Didn't know that. But you are right, the 420s currently operating in München were extensively overhauled (necessarily, they're half a century...
IIRC, Köln retired its 420s in 2014
Well, the 420 only runs IRL on the Munich S-Bahn. It used to run in Stuttgart and the Rhine-Ruhr region, but has been withdrawn. So it isn't...
It's my understanding that the 420 is ready to go, as a loco/EMU, but HMA needs to be optimized before the route can handle additional traffic.
They also have seat meal service, at least in business class.
While European cities generally have excellent public transit, and the larger ones have developed commuter rail systems in the suburbs/exurbs, in...
Clinchfield ran passenger service until 1954. Whether they used their F3/F7 fleet for it, or steam, I'm not sure. But IIRC all F7s came from EMD...
Don't forget Canada
I think the only way it could be made to work would be if DTG approached Iron Kettle Simulations with a two-part contract. Part 1, IKS would be a...
IIRC, the route is set some years ago, ca. 2013
