Continuing my return trip on West Highlander sleeper trains in the 1990s. There's something about Corrour that I find fascinating, probably just...
I’ve renamed the thread and amended the deadlines.
Hi Folks This week we've had 5 submissions but from only 2 contributors; therefore as it's approaching the deadline I propose extending this by...

Blazin TBH it was just a silly error on my part, it didn't occur to me when I updated for the new dates etc. I'll let others contribute on...
I didn’t know that lol. In which case the Mk1 BG is a generator van :cool:
Without doing the exact maths I think it’s just about ok? ETH index for a SLEP was 7 and SLE was 6. An aircon RFO, Mk1 BG and two...

Thank you very much for First place! I’ll get on with setting up next week’s thread shortly.

Is Tyndrum the smallest settlement to have had two separate overnight trains from London, by completely different routes and to different London...
Mark 2B/C example from the AP packs. They did appear pretty interchangeably in the WCML and inter-regional rakes. By my logic, compartment stock...

Not strictly relevant to a steam-era simulation but I believe that out on the real railway, the term ‘home signal’ has recently (in the last...
Some recent runs in TSC. Having to work around a few bugs since the recent update; particularly loss of signals and various AP mods not working...
I suspect for those of us who aren’t always after the newest shiniest (and most expensive) toy, TSC will only die when there is no longer a...
I'm having a run up the Welsh Marches line tonight (BMG/PLD route) and noticing that track is missing in Cwmbran and Ludlow platforms (possibly...
This weekend I upgraded to Windows 11 (from 10) and after the first tentative TSC run, I was pleasantly surprised to find it marginally improved...
Heaton Lodge interlude. Two minutes, two shots. It's a summer's evening in 1990. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] I don't know if a Western has ever made it to Buxton but this one barely did. Making an absolute racket but not going terribly fast,...
That’s a stunning shot
That’s a pity, yes I get that too although using a VPN (if you’ve got one) gets around it for viewing.
A local man and his dog idly note the train's passage, as do several cows. Seaton Junction is in the distance. [ATTACH] A couple of minutes'...
A brief pause at Colyton - another passenger or two joins and several alight. I wonder if the replacement bus service was as convenient, and...
Some lineside shots in the vicinity of Colyford halt. A couple of passengers join the last train of the day. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

A visit to the picturesque Seaton branch, on a clear autumnal evening in 1965. The last passenger services of the day are entrusted to a Pressed...
Blazin it's probably a mark of how much realism can be achieved in the sim, that I saw your photos and thought they were screenshots initially...
A fairly small selection this week but some excellent shots nonetheless. In third place, this lovely study of a pair of Growlers ready to do...
As usual, three random screenshots from recent TSC runs. The third is rather unrealistic as a 1500v DC unit under the wires at Crewe would result...
Just a reminder that there are 7.5 hours left for this week's competition, currently it is a one-horse race!
Agreed re Craigie-C that 58 MGR shot is stunning!
Thank you Blazin for the unexpected win. Well done to the others, there were some gorgeous close-up shots this week. I'll set up the new...
[ATTACH] I have always been a fan of Class 56 locomotives - it's a Type 5 workhorse with a respectable 80mph top speed. With a beefy ETH system...
Interesting, I’ve never encountered a video-memory crash specifically. This scenario has about 20 AI trains, with about half to 2/3 running in...
Hi Folks Just wondering if there are any experienced / professional scenario creators who would be willing to outline their techniques for...

The thing about loadings in BR days was that not only did the loco need to be capable of haulIng the load, it had to manage to achieve...
Having driven steam locos over the S&C many times in TSC, and also travelled behind them extensively in real life. You’d expect a Jubilee or...
Thank you for the win! And congratulations to the others. I'll set up next week's competition shortly.
I'm back at my local railway, the North Somerset 'Mendip Line'. It's not a public operating day but things are still going on, the highlight...
