Yes they could justifiably reuse the class 101 then. A class 122 would be great though. Heritage units ran on the St. Ives branch up to around 1996.
Looking at the weather outside and the fact I have had my office heater on, I have forgotten it is British Summertime!
A class150/2 would make sense. Then again class 158's probably worked in from places like Bristol/Cardiff during that time period, although...
Only for two or three years in the 1980's after which they were banished up north as the four wheel chassis were not considered suitable for the...
Sprinter and a HST I guess then. A little bit disappointed as I was looking forward to what I assumed was another 1970's route but this will do I...
I think you will find the driver couldn't change gear until the throttle was closed and the revs had dropped then he/she could change gear then...
I have seen it on GWE, I recall passing the same unit twice on the same journey There are not enough class 166's to run all those services, there...
They could make a Pacer for TVL as it would be suitable there for it's 1989 time period. I don't think the Pacers of Skippers were in Cornwall for...
I have it every time so I just skip it now, on PC. It is irritating though!
Well it was obviously an error, unless you are an android I assume you have made the odd mistake? You want three new routes for £9.99?
This does look good. London to Brighton is a modern route I would enjoy.
You really do make some very compelling arguments and with points very intelligently put forward!
That is what I was thinking!
A Wiki page for the trainsim route?
Some of us like to experience something as close to reality as possible. I am not a rivet counter by any means but if DTG can't provide realistic...
Not sure what nationality has to do with it?!!
I think that ship sailed some time ago!
I would be happy with something like that to be honest.
I don't have any of these yet but they look good. I notice though that the stock is in BR livery but the route is set in the more recent period as...
Surely second to accuracy of a route, should be accuracy of stock? If it is wrong, it is wrong. For many it won't matter, I wouldn't know as I...
Yes by the 70's the St. Ives branch was basically just a single track line with no run round facilities, most of the branch lines had gone that...
Class 117's were not common either. Although Laira had a couple for a couple of years in the 1970's and maybe one or two in the early 80's. In the...
And how would the community help them adapt their plans? You will be arguing for a more modern version, I would be arguing for a more historic...
Or a class 127 Bedpan unit, class 45, some nice mark 1's & 2's plus layers for the class 31 and 47. Maybe a class 25 for the more northern...
Mine is from 2014 apart from my graphics card with is a Nvidia 1060, it didn't run well with my previous card. It runs okay on mostly max...
Well I don't think he/she was shot down in flames, it was a perfectly reasonable response "appreciate your enthusiasm". You would have to be...
Well I do enjoy dipping in and having a drive from time to time. I actually suspect in time, maybe five years, maybe ten it will offer more of...
They hardly poopooed it! They correctly pointed out the Rivet would have started development so it is rather too late to try and influence their...
The difference for me is that, unless you use the woefully inadequate scenario planner you are pretty much stuck with what DTG say you can use on...
They were, it was often a little game of who would be brave enough to try and get off the train first as it entered the station. I wouldn't...
Well it hasn't been released with anything for a couple of months so it is due another outing!
Ah okay, seems strange now to think of the class 150 as modern, but yes in 1990 they were, I didn't like them then but I have a soft spot for them...
When you put "modern trains" as an option in the poll I assumed you were referring to the class 800 things with class 66's, Sprinters or Network...
That is interesting, I hadn't realised it was that early. The last photos I have seen of them were in Summer 1985 so that would make sense.
Drivers didn't walk down the train closing doors, passengers were considered mature and responsible enough to do it themselves. If any were left...
If it can be done in TS1 then why not in TSW? A simple sound of a guards whistle for older stock would suffice. Back in 1983 a driver of a...
I knew it was somewhere further north than Exeter lol! They would certainly fall outside the remit of this route.
Pacers were introduced at Plymouth Laira depot around 1985 and were painted chocolate and cream, they were actually known as Skippers down there....
I do like Sprinters too, I was driving a class 155 in TS1 yesterday. I doubt this route will be the one unless the diesel hydraulic element is...
Class 155's did run as far west as Penzance, from Cardiff mainly. They were introduced in 1987/1988, the last Peaks withdrawn in 1988 so it is...
I would love a 25, my favourite type 2. I love the Sulzer sound. Could also be used on NTP too.
If it is set in the late 70's the class 52's shouldn't really be part of the package, the last ones went in February 77. Most had gone by Jan 1976...
And people are surprised that many still use TS1!
I am sure the class 22's did get that far west. I think they were supposed to replace the Prairies and take over their duties and were used on...
It does look good.
Well an 08 would make sense as they were all over the network and certainly down at Penzance, if it is set in the 1970's and uses a diesel...
It probably is due a clean out. I have some canisters of compressed air for computers etc. I had forgot about CCCleaner, I will give it a try...
The DMU will be the deciding factor for me if it is to be a first day purchase, or any day purchase. It should be a first day purchase for me.
Okay I will give it a try thanks and see what it is like.
The Pacers and Sprinters had a hydraulic transmission which I think uses a fluid coupling but not certain, they are gearless as far as the driver...
Separate names with a comma.
