Oh, and the old-school DB uniform! Or at least the hat- by my time I think the buttoned collars had given way to neckties
Check the running time- the nonstops are circa 5 min faster
Got it. And thus I take it the one that "starts" the train after a stop?
Another argument for speed signaling over route signaling.
It wasn't because it was "too complex", it was because DTG have taken so much grief over making multiple suburban London routes they weren't about...
ICE 3 needs OHLE at 15 kV 16-2/3 Hz AC
I remember those from when I was a kid, round tin signs on a baton, white with a green circle.
Terminology question: I'm not quite sure I get the distinction between "home" and "starter" signals
It would be hugely useful in shunting operations
Nonetheless, in the 25 years of the Big Four there were 63 fatal rail accidents in the UK. In the past 25 years there have been 11.
Would such a "child" loco be available to sub on the original (DTG) route?
Well, if a torte counts as a cake
It's a pretty good bet that DTG copied her exactly as she is today, and available to photo, video and record; attempting to backdate the model...
Depends on whether you shut off the fill valve.
Mind you, the Taurus 1116s (ES 64U2) are pushing 20 years old, and it makes sense to replace them with Siemens' successor design.
Oh, I disagree! At least in business class. Very comfortable indeed (more so than DB)
Is it true that DBFV will sometimes contract with private operators, if they are short of traction?
OK, that makes perfect sense, and explains using a layer instead- but why Cajon Pass and not Sherman Hill? (or, rather, making Cajon necessary to...
Since all of these systems depend heavily on emplaced trackside installations, I'm pretty sure that the decision on what system to use is taken by...
But not quite all the same. Bundesländer in Germany and Kantone in Switzerland are quasi-sovereign entities which comprise a federal union, like...
Well, not "fine." A lot of red-light issues.
I simply don't understyand why DTG doesn't include re-used UP traction with the game, and skips the layering games altogether. Voraarlberg comes...
Yes, it's the international multivoltage version which can run outside Germany/Austria (as, say, the 406 and the 185.5 can). But it's not a...
Well, from a design and engineering perspective the 2020 is a clean-sheet design from the wheels up. The 2019 is a clone of the '18; maybe they...
Doesn't have time to remodel the kitchen and add a spare bedroom and a hot tub, but has time to weed the flower beds.
2018 M3 [IMG] 2019 M3 [IMG] 2020 M3 [IMG] Which of these is a new model? Discuss.
While it is true there is no hard rule, the general rule (at least US law, which applies in YouTube's case) is "less than a substantial proportion...
Horses for courses. Personally I dislike urban routes.
The critical node istn't thr train so much as the driver. To do a sound survey you effectively need to have somebody drive the train for you at...
Makes no sense, because Cajon Pass is not a TSW4 base route- that was TSW3.
A fair point; but grade is one significant element of RL driving that you simply can't sense in a computer sim
^Precisely. You get one new train per route, maybe with one or two reskins.
Because they would have to go back and rework every loco individually.
The problem with that route is that there is almost no through run, except for a single pair of ICE-T sightseeing trains on the weekend....
The problem with most Amtrak routes, aside from the NEC and to a lesser extent southern California, is that they run at most one tp per day,...
I think that was just a sick joke. "Donner Pass Kebab" is darkly funny, if you know what the pass is famous for.
No effect at all. Doesn't matter what goes into the paintjob in LD, when it's imported into the game it's flattened into a single (fairly lo-res)...
A lot of potential, especially with CSX' (ex-RF&P) massive Acca yard at Richmond, and Potomac and Ivy City yards and Union Station at the other...
The biggest failing of TSW night lighting is the complete absence of urban ambient light or "light pollution." While pitch-black dark is...
Like the 143, learn your brake force and traction force adjustments.
If set in the present-day, some variation on Rosenheim-Kufstein is the most likely because the game's full panoply of IC's, ICE's and freight run...
What, you mean me? DTG have lied about this. Borne false witness. Told big fat porkies. Sold us a bill of goods, which turned out to be a load of...
It wasn't OBB, it was Railpool. OBB doesn't have a depot at Kufstein.
It was also stated that during the pandemic, Deutsche Bahn closed its depots and non-public facilities to all non-employees.
There are a fair number of first-gen Geeps on heritage railroads and even still working on some small RR.
And Dresden comes with a (revamped) 146.2 that you really can drive on Köln-Aachen (there's nowhere to drive one on K-W).
Good luck finding Leipzig in Braunschweig......
