It’s a slightly earlier era but certainly in 1973, if the SIAM Traffic Control simulation is to be believed, Class 40’s and double headed Class...

No… :)

Oh I don’t disagree with that which is what many of us have been saying for a while, only to get the response from the usual suspect(s) that route...

IIRC didn’t they have fabric style seats or in 1974 would they still have been plastic/vinyl? In any event, I think this DLC will need a “Sore...

In theory having a more frequent service increases capacity but that doesn’t really apply to the West Of England route and as soon as there’s...

The only reason they are so popular now is that they are much nicer trains than the modern IET’s etc. that replaced them. Back in the bashing days...

As noted above the WCML is all 3P work and I assume DTG only have so much creative control over what they decide to do. There doesn’t appear to...

A Dusty Bin would have been great as, having travelled on these and experienced the AP one in TSC the 321’s were one of the last AC EMU types to...

Though we know Cardiff was outsourced to Rivet, who it seems have nothing under their own banner on the Roadmap. Does this mean DTG and Rivet are...

As I mentioned in the Q&A, is it just me or is this pretty much all 3P stuff, nothing from DTG themselves?

Definitely agree the great northern city of Newcastle should be in the game! Personally I would go for a pre Metro 1970’s suburban when both the...

Excellent! I will have to replace my upholstered computer chair with a hard dining chair to emulate the experience! :)

Given that most if not all of the reveals seem to be content from 3P’s what are DTG proposing to bring to the table themselves next year? Or have...

Did I pick up in the thread we are getting some UIC corridor Am232/Bm232 or similar stock with this? Excellent if true and at last we can...

It's possible their next one could be Lancaster to Whitehaven via Barrow to link things up, but that would be even more work than coming to...

I was wondering the same and looking at my Steam Wallet. As regards JT well they haven't even given a date for Preston to Crewe yet so I'm...

True but AFAIK it's all units. We saw on WCL and to some extent SoS what can happen when late running occurs and there is no flag on the schedule...

I have two cabride DVD's/Blu-rays of the route - the original Railscene one with Jeremy English (RIP) babbling away and the more recent one...

I'm sure I recall someone from JT saying Motherwell into Glasgow would be a complete nightmare to do. The timetable would be quite fragile to,...

That is true. Some of their early TSC (as in RS and Railworks) stuff (like Edinburgh to Dundee), left a great deal to be desired, relying on...

On a different note, without firing it up, am I right in thinking that all or part of this route is in Zusi 3? I'm convincing myself looking at...

My only slightly less positive thought about this one, is could it herald the first £39.99/Euro 44.99/US$49.99 price level add on DLC?

Thinking that too. While thrashing alongside the M1 then Kilsby Tunnel is going to be fun, bearing in mind the focus of this route is still the...

Good but as I said in the reveals thread I feel they have missed a trick by stopping short at Whitehaven. The eponymous "Coast" section is really...

Some excellent stuff there and a far better final set of reveals than last years TTTE. German steam - Day One. Trent Valey - Day One. Cumbrian...

Day. One.

Indeed. There are still plentiful ideas for steam traction in the Suggestion forum, both UK and elsewhere. Just that it comes up against DTG’s...

Not strictly true as on the monthly mastery accumulated distance from a run done over several sessions has always counted so, say, 90 miles from a...

Purely personally I wouldn't have thought it was that important, something nice to have rather than essential. In a single player game where all...

You could also have engineering trains going in and out of T3 possessions, albeit DTG would need to scrutinise the Rule Book more closely than...

Have to respectfully disagree with most of the what zsolt_93 had to say above. I just watched two of TSS clips while on the exercise bike - the...

Yes that would be a nice way to kick off one of the 2026 Monthly Mastery mileage challenges. You could at a push drop in WCMLS too, then just...

Distance driven is playing up on the US Tier 2. Just finished an 18 mile run on Boston Sprinter which only clocked up about 5 miles. So it does...

Medway and Preston to Crewe the only two I've really got my eye on. Tadami, well yes if it comes out and the Czech route but as I think I said...

I couldn't quite get the hang of trimming with the chainsaw either. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it ended cutting the log again. I haven't...

Not to mention Cardiff City a close second in its group. To go back to the heady days of It's a Knockout, they must have played their Joker!

I actually quite enjoy the TSS clips and feel they strike the right balance. Not sycophantic towards DTG or the 3P’s but giving credit where due.

Only deadwood which given I was doing the £0 start on Kinlaig, after hiring a tractor and trailer to haul it ended up with a huge loss. However,...

Actually the rocks make good money as you can feed them into your cement plant. Even the ones you obtain from doing contracts, so long as you tip...

Probably already mentioned but the Crewe to Euston semi fasts via New Street and Northampton are still being announced as Marston Green then Euston!

Even better run with one traction motor out. I find that adds to the challenge, automatically isolates the regen braking and you get to hear the...

WRT GSM-R if SimRail is anything to go by I have my options set to auto tune and change the radio channel. And yes that sim does penalise you if...

That is probably true to life. Most Euston to Manchester and vv services diverge or join the route at Norton Bridge as they run via Stoke and...

Still appreciated mate. Will have a go at putting those on the PC version anyway just to see if it helps. As regards the illusive patch, a double...

I was about to say..! The problems are not half as bad on PC even on my old potato!

Route knowledge. Rules and regulations. Sectional Appendix including local instructions. Fault finding on the train including basic mechanical and...

I keep meaning to as it usually gets a huge discount these days at sale time. But again not sure my hands or reflexes can quite take fast FPS any...

PFR is down twice in Group D...

The passenger loading works differently on this route to others, whether by accident or design - unknown. At stations where you have a red signal...
