Well, MP said that headlights on American locos shouldn't be visible at all during the day. This is simply not the case. The ones I see passing...

Surely it's possible to dim the headlight during the day, if you want. Personally, I'd put up with bright headlights during the day. After all,...

Not to mention the Dash 8 40 CM, the Dash 8 41CW or the Dash 8.5 40CW etc.. There are almost endless order variations and rebuilds among American...

Yes, the F7, in particular, had a powerful, twin-beam headlight which should be illuminating the entire vista up ahead, including in tunnels....

That's actually still a very capable card. I'm still getting by on a 1070 and doing more than OK. I expect it will handle "Rush Hour" just fine. I...

Should be showing same speed as the HUD. Go to " controls", " advanced controls" and "calibrate".

So much development time has been spent on this route, any major problems with the route environment and/or the locos and rolling stock would be...

I know you mean well, but you shouldn't presume fo speak for anyone but yourself. Have a better weekend.:)

Yes, and compare that with the SPG locos, in a similar landscape, which seem to illuminate the track ahead. Running up the Fremont branch, I could...

In principle I agree with you. I've said many times on the forums that, since the vast majority of console players have older hardware, they are...

Well, in all honesty, this route took a couple of steps backward for me in today's stream. I don't know if it was the gray skybox, the dull...

Yes, it's not well scripted. I reran the scenario (on PC) and tried driving at under 50 mph to see what would happen but, apart from that one red...

Interesting article. It would be nice to see those locos ( SD60M, SD70M and the Geeps) in the game eventually. However, Skyhook's scenery looks...

A photo of your red-rimmed eyes? :) Seriously, this will be very helpful, as I'm very much undecided, though I'm beginning to lean in favor.

Just got my copy, too. I guess it can be referred to as the "Potash Branch". I'm 2 issues behind in my reading, but I might leapfrog to this...

I ges you misd the poynt.:) :D Anyway, the whole point is that we welcome everyone on to the forums, whether or not English is his/her first...

Is this what you meant by familiarity with the English language?

They all have value. It depends on your interests, passenger or freight, commuter or long distance, country/region, era, traction etc. I assume...

If you're on PC, I think you can purchase the bundle and then delete any routes you don't immediately want. If you change your mind later, you can...

I think SPG is still the gold standard as far as scenery goes. And it's several years old, go figure. But like all of TSW, it's pretty sterile....

Well, if the next stream is more or less a shipping build, we will see if the sound and lighting are improved. I must admit this route is looking...

Or their own. The SD40 on their website could be easily modified. Adding the extra length and porches, UP trucks and livery and some cab...

The attraction of CRR was never the scenery for me. I have the TS version and I've traveled through rural Kentucky and Virginia, so I knew what to...

I've always found this to be a problem with many British routes, in TS and TSW(2). There simply isn't enough headlight or ambient light to find...

My goodness, that's very elaborate mapping and printing. You have more buttons than my Raildriver! Well done! Don't worry, most of us are...

No, clearly there should be period-appropriate stock. But the fact is empty rail yards and nicely modeled but lifeless, barren main line stations...

Fair enough, but it was thought significant enough to be specifically mentioned on the stream. Let's just say somebody got it right.

That is a very nice touch. Someone in the development team had imagination.

For American rail: 1970's and 1980's. For UK rail: pre- privatization. For German rail: pre- electrification.

The major problems on CRR, the SD40 horn, the poor headlights and the fact that banking com doesn't work are, I think, unlikely to get much...

I know I shouldn't say this, because I'm pretty sure it would be a duck out of water, but I like the BR 101 so much, it would have actually made...

Oh yes, you're right on the money (sorry). I've never thought that $30 was expensive for any route. And RH is certainly a kind of loss leader....

Well, as you know, that's not the only example in that route and others. Broken promises, the patronizing attitude I took from the last stream, as...

It does seem a bit incongruous, doesn't it? You have GCC , with about 20 miles, one train and seemingly limited scope for expansion, for $30. Then...

Can't say I've seen any noticeable change in performance recently. Every PC setup is different and infinitely changeable though, so I would...

I hope you meant a likeness of that dish. The real thing would cause all kinds of problems with lineside objects and wild animals en route.:D

It looks like a park walk/bike trail. Nice touch, as you say. If and when I have this route, I'll have to take a stroll, probably walking back...

Well, that's it, isn't it. We buy routes, knowing they'll have issues, but confident that they are playable at least. But everyone has their own...

You're both absolutely right, of course. I guess my enthusiasm for the game outweighs my common sense sometimes. But, other times, it works...

One of the remarks on the stream that struck me was the notion that, yes there are some bugs, such as the sound etc., but that, though we might...

You can certainly ask, but I'm pretty sure you'd get the same response that I got when I mentioned it on the forum a few months ago: At present...

Yes, I know my geography, thanks. But by suggesting than the Scots want to "un- English" themselves, that implies that they were once English,...

Yes, of course, you're correct. Had a senior moment there.:) But can we assume there will be no pushers on these consists, given the gradients...

Well, the screenshots show multiple lash- ups of both AC44 and SD40-2 locos, so how are they remote controlled? Can't imagine they are all...

Ooh, I don't know about that, Solicitr,. Geographically, of course, but I would hesitate to suggest that the Scots were ever "English".

Don't want to start a war, but haven't the Scottish people made a point of "unBritish ing" themselves over the past 30-40years? My impression is...

Amazing photorealism. It's interesting that they chose the Utah desert to illustrate the new features, when we have Cane Creek on the horizon. Not...

Whenever I watch a preview stream recently, I'm always drawn to the same thoughts. Wherever you are in the world, whether it's steam, diesel or...

It's looking very good to me. I wasn't expecting new locos and, although the stock for the tailings would be nice, I don't spend a lot of time...

Thinking about old stock, one of the fun things about the Rail Tours on SEHS is riding first class in those old cars with compartments and...
