This. When northern was owned by Arriva, politicians (not naming names Andy Burnham) promised passengers the world if the company was...
Interesting. Is it true that delays of up to 12 hours are not unheard of on certain routes?
I think what Prescott means by 'old trains' is first generation slam-door DMUs and EMUs and loco-hauled trains, which were getting on for over 30...

I must say - I think it has been partly unsuccessful, but not because it's in private hands. The whole franchising system is flawed I think for...
At any point between two awards you go over the speed limit, it'll award the least amount it can, ie if you are awarded 30 points, go 2mph over...
It should be noted that what they're effectively doing is not issuing the next franchise to tender, and automatically rewarding it to themselves....
This is a very current affairs and british thing. Also Sam was only temporary, and has been replaced by JD, but he'll still be on the streams.
If you play German routes, I think you pretty much need MSB to really help bulk out the timetable, and add variety, even if you don't care for the...
For Germany, I like Rhein Ruhr Osten, as well as Hauptstreke Rhein Ruhr and Main Spessart Bahn (note the sounds on the BR146 aren't fantastic,...
There's a 309 in there, along with 304/305/308 (one of them)
I don't think this is a good comparison. Trucks can pretty much go wherever there's a road (obviously exceptions like small country lanes, weak...
I think it's the Class 20 that's causing the grief. I think they've set the cab end of the 20 to be the rear, and as such to make it the...
They are identical. TS2019 came with a copy of that DLC, and I'm not aware of any updates that have come out for the route since then. Basically,...
Reminds me of a TS1 video where they had to reverse at a station, and spent 20 minutes waiting for the signal to clear. Tbf it was not...
Personally, I'd only extract a .ap file if I need to access soemthing, so I'd put the files straight into the folder, but if it doesn't work,...
A few recommendations from me: WCML Over Shap is pretty good, as is North London & GOBLIN, IMO. I've heard the DB BR420 is good but not used it...
I believe the trins in Munich-Augsburg are supported (so that's the BR403 and BR423) - or is it buggy?
[IMG] Need I say much more? :D That's the worst in TSW. In TS1, I did once make a scenario with a Lua script that completely broke the entire...
Yes, the 304s went in 1996 as the last 323s entered service, a couple 305s limped on to 2000 as the 323s couldn't run to Hadfield due to something...
Yes, the trains you see sat in the depot would've been used in the expanded timetable.
Oh I thought they'd completely binned it.
It's been binned, sadly, because of issues regarding to the dispatcher (the AI that paths trains and the like) - it simply couldn't handle that...
Also, addendum. Having dug around my 1995 timetable a bit more, I've found these approximate service patterns, from what I can see: - 1 train per...
Same. I really enjoy driving it (and the 86) in TS1 and I've been thinking of what routes wouldn't be too long for a TSW route (currently) but...
[ATTACH] A4 loco 60009 "Union of South Africa" steams south on a railtour on the Workshop backdated Settle-Carlisle line. (I'm assuming Workshop...
I voted for Class 56, 60, 57 and 50, they'd be my top 4.
I believe it was rather common for a 4cig to work with a 4vep, too.
I don't think you have to. I've made a couple of sound mods that work without extracting the .ap file (ok, to be more precise, no one's told me it...
I think this is more of a Steam issue, but it is stated in the description, and they do have the route as a "Featured DLC". It would be nice to...
I'm suggesting the 30-mile line from Crewe to Manchester via Stockport, in the mid-1990s, immediately before privatisation. The main route runs...
Not currently. Matt has stated what he wants to happen (which is a generally available API for hardware devs) but I'd not expect any other...
Yeah, I mean if you do take that point then there'd be basically no point in getting the 465 - all it's services are in the abse route.
Yes, there is, it's a merger of JT ECML North, DPSim's ECML North East, DT's(?) York - Peterborough and DTG's London - Peterborough. They were...
That'll be because the beta team's remit appears to go not far beyond "can I move and then stop the train" if what Sam's said on streams is to be...
What's what it can operate, not what it adds. All the WSR services are sub only, as are a lot of the Tees Valley services - the 20 adds 4, but...
*in the western world ;) There's a major train sim franchise in Japan that's been going since the 90s and is available on basically every Nintendo...
I'm not sure if there are any diesel fuel points but there are definitely water points for steam engines. They're indicated with a light blue...
I think it's 4 now as one of them has been poached by the main team.
I think newspaper trains came under the banner of parcels, like other mail.
[ATTACH] As well as the Cross-City line, according to Wikipedia, they run these services shared with the Class 350s. So in short, that's commuter...
Well they've done some extensions for TS1 so it's not unreasonable to assume there'd be similar demand in TSW. Not sure how many extensions they...
There is a specific Cross-Country route https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_Country_Route but most trains run beyond its length.
Ah yes, Don't know why i left that out :D
The Cross-City Line is a 30-mile(ish) commuter line in Birmingham, running between Lichfield (for connections to the WCML) in the North of the...
