Denmark, Sweden, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia don't use the Euro.
Correct- the Royal Train has A-number-one trumps-everything priority. This is as much for security as anything else.
Why this love affair with the BR 52? It was a quick and dirty rather LOVE wartime locomotive, which DB hated and got rid of as soon as they could.
Guard vans/brake vans were required on all trains until sometime in the ... well, can't recall, but long after 1961. Except on double-cab freight...
Holy smoke, we're in the presence of videogame royalty! It's like learning the captain of the ferry you're riding is John Jellicoe.
Problem with that is that the Dostos we have are all wrong; in addition, the cabs of the 143 and 155 would have to be re-done practically from...
I believe AWS was installed then (early 80s), but not TPWS.
In theory they could, but they don't do it very often.
I'm not sure what you're referring to. The expanded TSW3 version is indeed a brand new timetable. If you mean the forthcoming 700, the layer was...
Well, of course they are. They're Class 20s.
Layering has to be built into a route when it is made: in other words, newer locos do not layer into older routes. It has always been this way....
Peak Forest isn't a Skyhook route
Should feel familiar, [MEDIA]
That's great! It would be helpful, though, to have a table of brake weights for the possible wagons in use on the route, because it's a pain to...
By any chance are you using manual firing? Your fire burning out will trigger a service failure.
IIRC, the Siemens SIBAS 16 was inherited from the BR 120.
That's just UK railroading. Route knowledge!
Again, Steam releases at 10 am their local- that's US Pacific Daylight Savings at the moment, so 6 pm British Summer Time. It's always been that...
Steam always releases at 10 am its own local time, that is US Pacific (currently daylight-savings). Ergo 11 MDT, 12 CDT, 1 EDT, and 6 BST.
However, without any commentary, others have no idea (1) which commands are actually useless in TSW, or accomplish little, and (2) which commands...
So, here we are in May 2023, and service designers are STILL putting stop markers bang on top of signals- something which was supposedly outlawed...
This subject came up some time ago with the release of Clinchfield, and discussion of the F7B repurposed as a shunter at Haysi. Matt pointed out...
The essence of the problem is that for some reason, livery substitution somehow checks the "unloaded" box, so any alt-livery car becomes empty,...
As much as anything I suspect it's an era problem. Railion was a thing in Germany for the relatively brief period 2003-2009 (followed by DB...
I can't help but be mildly offended at the label "arcade" being applied to playing realistically - that is, the driver driving the train and...
Probably the 15 Easter eggs
Did you happen to save and restore? Doing that always seems to screw up scenarios with cab changes.
According to Jane, all that track was laid in order to "future proof" the route.
Problem is, the Dostos we have are way too modern.
It would be more or less equivalent to keeping a US loco permanently baled off.
Certainly a relatively quick moneymaker would be a loco DLC using the good old Gronk, shunting in one of those unused industrial sites.
There I fear you are right; if DTG continue with their move into vintage German, they have to be aware that for those Americans and Brits who have...
This sort of SPAD trap was supposedly outlawed ages ago, but service designers are still putting them in. The only reliable solution is to stop...
The issue I see with TOD4 for DRA is similar to Brighton: already bursting at the processing seams so can't handle additional load.
Certainly it would simplify things, and save a screen, if the Mastery Reward on/off button were just included on the route's Mastery page, rather...
Mail trains have always been a subset of passenger, not freight, service; traditionally in the US at least the mail was carried as part of...
Actually, no. Trains with 4 headcodes can run up to 75; those with 6 headcodes are limited to 60. (There are even slower classifications, but I...
Among other things, "Light Railway" classification means that they don't have to install anachronistic TPWS etc on their vintage trains.
I suspect your problem lies in having SD-70s in the trailing MU; as mentioned above their dynamics are effectively useless, unless you bail them...
So you recognize that "English" is something qualitatively different from "Scottish" and ":Welsh" then?
Which is no different from the UK (75 mph) or Germany (120 km/h, but usually 100 km/h). I'm not sure that "high speed freight" in the sense of TGV...
So, a generic nondescript culture, so long as it has "good" values (whatever they are), completely interchangeable with the generic culture next...
Yes, things were so much happier under Cromwell.... And that is on point? I don't think so. Would you dynamite Westminster Abbey because it's...
Uh-huh. And the UK moves only 9 billion ton-miles per year. The US moves 1.4 trillion. Which makes the US rail accident rate a mere 4% of...
Every mile of main line in the US has PTC installed. Germany will be getting ETCS, when?
Plenty of criticism originating with the unions, whose interest of course is $$$. If they can succeed in splitting trains into three or four...
Malarkey. The usual hate directed at PSR originating with the Usual Suspects.
A statement so ignorant one almost suspects malice. Europeans are children playing with toys by comparison. I'll grant you passenger rail, but...
Separate names with a comma.
