Brand-new routes never go on sale, aside from (inconsistent) pre-order discounts, and for XBox the Gamepass discount.
This is becoming a pattern
Ah, this became an issue with Niddertalbahn: TSW3 rotary motion blur on ALL rolling stock wheels, no exceptions.
You need to have the tap changer down to 0* before you apply brakes, otherwise the main breaker will open to prevent damage to the transformer....
Kein problem.
From DB's founding after the war until 1960 its default color was a very dark green, it then went to a somewhat less dark green that lasted until...
Basic dates: 1974 D(B)B adopts ivory/ocean blue scheme 1987 DB adopts Orient Red for locos and "Produktfarben" for coaches 1994: DB and DR merge...
Probably because it took 18 months instead of just 6 to develop
A Traffic Red loco with DBAG logo in 1992?
PZB only checks PZB speed limits- 160 in Mode O in the absence of a limiting signal. It knows nothing of loco or consist Vmax.
The 103 was designed to pull a 400 tonne train at 200 km/h- but also to conform with the then standard DB requirement to be able to stop from full...
The general pattern was to use loco-hauled trains during peak hours, and DMUs when there was less demand. Originally these were steam engines...
You have said that before, but it's incorrect, based on the English Wiki article which only describes operations beginning in the late 1990s. In...
DTG: there HAS to be a way to block the 103 and 110 from appearing on modern routes.
R would be normal for operation with passenger coaches, unless for some weird reason you were pulling very old ones. G is for freight. These...
At least in US heavy freight practice, you never touch the "big air" unless you are stopping, or descending a steep grade.
Not "instead of." It can be operated either from the cab or by R/C; at different times one or the other is more convenient.
One reason to keep Riesa-Dresden is because although it doesn't include any "new" rolling stock, all the locos and wagons in it are notably...
Mods: Weirdly, when I attempt to edit this post the forum software won't let me, hitting it with an "inappropriate" tag. Say wheat?
Complete happiness? That would mean the addition of proper Interregio trains with blue X coaches, and a 141 to handle n-Wagen Lokalzüge.
Yes, that is very screwed up. Never buy before the patch ;)
No, the 363s are former 365s: they are all R/C capable.
The 363 also has remote control functionality IRL. You can even see the box for it in the cab. After all, a 363 is a 365 with an engine swap....
No, that's not stuttering. That's just low framerate.
The only east-west Amtrak north of Denver now is the Empire Builder, and that runs just below the Canadian border
Yes, that's authentic. 500s can be installed to protect speed drops to 30 or lower. There's one at Hagen also.
It may not have been the plan, but it could have been predicted by a third-grader with a Ouija board.
Never buy first day.
There I have to agree: DTG really shot themselves in the foot, costing themselves a heap of goodwill for little if any actual monetary return. As...
Bull[LOVE]! Broken records are so tiresome. You don't want to buy TSW3. Fine. So stop slagging it off to others as if you know something about it...
It amazes me what some people will find to complain about.
It's a 1950s locomotive- that might be prototypical. You may have to go back there and turn them on locally.
Renaming. Bingerbrück Bf, its name since 1856 and that of the suburb where it's located since the Middle Ages, was redesignated as Bingen's Hbf...
smfh
It would however also require a tail of Superliner coaches, since Amfleets don't run out there.
However, the English Wiki section on services only begins in the late 90s. Check German wiki: Danach übernahmen dieselhydraulische Loks mit...
Maybe because the game has no Amtrak diesel, and the Cajon route isn't electrified?
Don't believe everything you see on TV. US locomotives have normal automotive safety glass. _______________________________________________ A big...
Those are all covered by the NORAC rules
Why would a 218 be out of era? The V 164s entered service in the 1960s.
This is 1997: are you sure it isn't using Indusi 60 instead of PZB 90?
Freight railroads would like a word
It can run off of either third-rail DC, or overhead wire AC. Like the Class 395 Javelin.
Enjoyable route. Very pretty and, yes, much more like Sand Patch (geographically it isn't too far away) than like the Western routes. Sounds are...
Just wondering- is there a speed limit above which the rails don't get acceptably washed?
Mind you, on some UK routes there are split speed limits: a faster one for passenger trains or MUs, and a slower one for freight or for...
DB changed the rules with Covid. They no longer allow those sound surveys. Anyone who wants to do a German train now needs to locate one in...
I have no idea why the US is getting so much grief about railroad crossings: this is a typical one: [IMG] If some moron wants to cross anyway...
Probably because we only ever use EMUs as commuter trains,* where they don't run at high speeds or if they do not for any distance. We have no...
Because it costs the railroad money. Granting a brand license does not.
Separate names with a comma.
