But not until DTG have sorted US in-cab signaling. It's currently a mess.
Actually it's more complicated than that. The Sachsen-Franken-Express is an Interregio-Express, but uniquely is not funded by any SPNV, but by DB...
Running the 20thCL just to White Plains would be rather a waste. Sort of like the Class 52 on West Somerset.
Yet is happy to make money selling add-ons based off DTG's product.
Or, and I'll just keep banging this drum, do Austria, which isn't very different at all from Germany in terms of signage, signals and safety...
It seems that it is implemented differently on ECW and BML. The former regulates the throttle, only, and is good for holding speed on the level...
As with all US passenger routes except SF-SJ, the completely broken safety systems mean this one lurks untouched on my drive, and will continue to...
Why would trains belonging to Regio Südost have Bahnland Bayern stickers? That's a marketing campaign used by the regional TOCs...
I do think that N&W is a leading candidate, since DTG already have a licensing deal with NS, and there are some preserved N&W locos in existence....
This is going to sound crazy, but it really happens: it was true with my (then) hotrod gaming computer out of the box, and I couldn't understand...
There's a mod for that: http://www.trainsim.cz/?mod=article&showid=2447
Well, I'm pretty sure it won't release until early 2022. DTG route releases are generally spaced at two-month intervals (summer bundles being the...
Maik: "My involvement in the audio work means recording brand new sounds from a real DB 612, then editing it, before implementing the best mix...
Sounds like you don't have the rear engines set up correctly. Still, you aren't going to crest that grade above about 17-18 mph.
The "0" key teleports you back to the driver's seat
Yes, it should and in RL does. However, TSW does not currently model it (they have temporized somewhat by speeding up the brake charging time to...
I venture this route will show as much of Grand Central's concourse as Bakerloo does of Waterloo's. Sorry, folks, but all you're getting is the...
Norfolk & Western No. 611. The N&W J-class were the last and arguably the greatest of the steam express locos: [IMG]
The former is correct: controlling the rear loco(s) via radio signals. Although DTG have confused things a bit by using the same in-game...
Okay, there is quite a lot of confusion on here regarding TWO timetable updates. The FIRST is a free rework/fix of the existing route's...
The PCS (Pneumatic Control Switch) is a safety device which opens the air system if airflow exceeds a certain rate; the assumption is that you...
I've said for some time that DTG could have a nice little side earner selling liveries.
And I'm not sure I'd count Canada (sorry, Canucks, but from a railroading perspective things are pretty much identical with your annoying great...
Yeah, that horsie is going to be a challenge!
Query: what was the first TS route released - by any developer - not set in the Big Three countries?
As I understood Matt to say in a stream some time back, there is something about one of the online stores which requires loco DLC to be "housed"...
There is alternative approach, if you want to speed brake charging by running higher engine RPM (although I'm not sure if the game actually models...
I'm not sure how you popped the Pneumatic Control Switch, but it has dumped the brake pipe and you have to recharge all over again.
Just a thought, Sharon- do you have any mods for BML installed? I have had this happen on other routes, where an update suddenly conflicted with...
Correct. The Railpool is a 182.2, just like the DB/Railion locos; the 185.5 is rigged for international use and so has multiple current support...
What the Roadmap actually says is, under In Production, [Core] Steam Update And under In Planning, [Spirit of Steam] First release Which I...
Another factor, although it's a reason which we are all tired of hearing by now, is the impact of COVID on research. To do a loco/MU well, DTG...
Yes, the loco artists and loco modelers and route builders are all different people, they aren't fungible. But all of them have to get paid, and...
That, and the fact it was almost finished at the time of release, having only been cut out at the last minute.
Oh, really? That sure, are you? I venture that the next UK route will be modern, and electric (and released much sooner than 9 months from now)....
It would be much less of a problem had the existing timetables been based on the RL ones, rather than fictional, since in that case everything...
And RhB frequently runs mixed consists, tacking freight wagons onto the back of passenger trains.
Well, Dresden saw reworked versions of the older German trains, and even BML uses a subtly upgraded version of the 377, so....
That's at the front, in your lead loco. What's the reading at the rear (small box, left side of the MFD under the big brake pipe readout)?...
Some bugs are harder to fix than others. OOM errors are some of the hardest.
The locos at the rear are there to push! "Banking comm" abstracts Distributed Power, which on modern US locos means radio (not hardwire) remote...
There must be a term for "setting one's self up for disappointment through unrealistic expectations." Why on earth would you think a steam route...
Have the stream on in the background (through the hi-fi)- the sound is amazing, the acoustic 'feel' of being inside a diesel loco is brilliantly...
The bottleneck, and the hard work, is not the art department but the physics modeling. That takes a lot of time and a lot of iterative...
Um, no. It's completely separate from the Arosa timetable, which is free.
TSG is setting the standard that other developers, including DTG itself, should aspire to.
20 mph is just fine on an uphill. That's accurate, not a bug: these trains are heavy! The important thing with freight is that it gets there, not...
There's your problem- going so fast that you had to brake "down to" 35! Your speed on those descents with a heavy train should be about 30, and...
Two different horns.
I have no problem with penalizing SPADs (which in RL can get a driver in very serious career trouble indeed), but I do have a problem with stop...
