It's beautiful work; unfortunately, the GP38 is one of my favorite locos and I wouldn't want to sacrifice it....
Hold on: those pictures can't both be Reigate. They're two different stations.
Magnets aren't directional; they are either on or not, and if they're on then the loco senses them when it passes over. The subsequent distance...
I wonder- since the 143 is a dual-purpose loco, is it possible that its default setup is with brakes set to Goods mode, rather than Passenger or...
Maybe it will be the Mastery reward
That's partially true, but for example in HRR the dispatcher definitely is programmed to put freight priority below passenger. And I believe that...
And then there's Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw, Pommy expat who's acquired a layer of Strine on top of the Queen's.
"All summer long" was blown when nothing released on June 21..... :cool:
That gets into the broader issue of the tutorials being vastly less informative than they should be. Instead of "these are the brake gauges so...
Ah. OK, I thought that rear panto was always preferred, except for fire-hazard situations. The reason would be that in general you would want...
While I think the OP is over the top, I can appreciate that the tutorial probably should have included an explanation or instruction, at least for...
No, open doors first (which automatically puts on enough brake pressure to hold the train), then release the train brake. You'll get a much...
Although I can't envision a situation which would require that. The reverse, yes (lead wagon is a tanker or otherwise spark-sensitive), but not a...
Yes. The brakes are still pneumatic (air) brakes! But with an ep system, the brake cylinders are actuated by an electronic signal, which is...
No reason not to include the relative handful of GWR services as a layer, since they already have the train. Will the "new" BML 377 become...
The core update and Boston were released in August. "Coming this summer" box ticked. End of.
Just a notion- have you tried setting the voltage in the left MFD screen? This is a feature the international 185.5 has that the...
I do think Amtrak's scorecards are a bit self-serving; although freight delays are a real thing, they are trying to blame all delays on the...
Or Harley Quinn
Not sure why that's relevant. The winner isn't based on the number of "likes" but whatever Natalie and a committee at DTG think is the best that...
Who is a Boston native
Personally I love the mod for SPG and CRR which adds back in the manufacturer's plates and trademarks on all the instruments and equipment.
The "five minutes" instruction was simply cut out of the scenario in a later patch.
All the IC listings have that problem: the prose titles put Dresden first. The maps however are correct- just look where the start marker is placed.
Has anyone yet posted a prose or video guide to ACS/ACES as implemented in Boston Sprinter? My train keeps getting killed - with NO speed...
No, you don't. I started on XBox and had to re-purchase everything for PC.
That wouldn't seem to hurt. GWE came with three, DLGW sold well. NTP came with three; the HFP sold well. TVL came with three, but that hasn't...
This was a function of passenger service being more profitable than freight. In the US the situation is and since around 1920 has been the...
It's wheelslip. When you start the service make sure you have two AC4400s; if it spawns one AC and one SD40 you don't have enough power for that...
This was not the case in Britain prior to 1947; the LNER, GWR etc etc owned and maintained their own trackage, until the Government expropriated it.
Even if DTG ever do release a public editor (which I think unlikely, for both practical and legal reasons), its EULA will almost certainly carry a...
DLC is developed to a budget. The more they have to spend on one thing (say, a new signaling system), the less budget there is for something else...
My bad; I misspoke. Yes, the FRA is the safety and operational regulator; the NTSB is an investigative agency tasked with examining accidents....
It seems that DTG have not and will not repeat the TS1 policy of allowing indie devs to produce add-on DLCs which are developed and sold...
This happened because the CB&Q owned the Chicago-area commuter line (now Metra), and the Seattle, Portland & Spokane owned Seattle commuter rail...
The national regulatory body is the Federal Surface Transportation Board, although safety regs are also issued by the National Transportation...
I would say that Austria would be the easiest, though: they use basically the same Hv signals as Germany, their main loco (the...
Sure. TSW routes are still only about 50 miles tops, so the small size of Luxembourg isn't really an issue.
To date the US has not been especially well-served with regard to rolling stock, even though there are now a decent number of routes. We have two...
Yes. This is true of all NA freight railroads (for the most part. There is also a rather complex system of "trackage rights" where one RR is...
And because BNSF was formed by the merger of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, Great Northern, Northern Pacific, Milwaukee Road and Atchison,...
Except they aren't the real timetables. They start with RL departure times, but then from that point base it on auto-running the system with AI...
There's rather a big difference between sharing free mods and scenarios in the PC community, and launching paid PC-only DLC which console players...
This is where the new UI becomes especially problematic: with the head-on view in the train selection screen, it's very difficult to tell which...
While the loco brake should be avoided with a heavy consist, and not applied severely unless running light, its effects vis a vis the train are...
The problem with BNSF is that apparently the US and international trademarks are held by different entities; DTG had an agreement with one but not...
[IMG] Köln Hbf, SKA, BR 442, BR 406
[IMG] Hackerbrücke, HMA, BR 423 (Yes, I've posted this before. But I think it's a darn good picture and I'm going to keep throwing it up here...
IIRC, in TS1 there are a couple of routes which use BNSF branding when sold to US customers, but which are generified for the rest of the world....
Note though that because the train brake is usually slow to apply and very slow to release, even with a train of cars behind you the loco...
Separate names with a comma.
