The air gauges will be reading brake pipe pressure in psi. Fully released is 72.5 psi. A one bar reduction is equivalent to 15 psi drop...
Think you might need a route first?
Just need a split-box 40 now. There were also some with a centre box with square corners but maybe I should let that one slide.
The 47 would also probably need a cab/shore radio aerial fitted on the roof below the horn grilles for 1989.
I usually go to make a cup of tea, do some chores or write annoying messages on here.
Come on. DTG are big boys. They chose the market and they knew the market would be meticulous. It's the nature of the beast. I'm sure they can...
From my experience, train and plane people are details people. Probably on the spectrum. And I include myself in that. So I do understand where...
The 40s do sound very good. Love how they erupt into life. I'm rarely out of notch 10. :o
Looks like we might have a problem then. One for DTG!
So took charge of the heavy tanks and both engines were running when I started but using the camera shortly after departure I noticed zero exhaust...
They were commonly banked up MP.
Only 37/0s existed in 1983. 37s would have been common at Healey Mills and no doubt were used over the route for freight.
Must be Bescot machines.
I love the tube for its history and architecture but I find the trains probably the least interesting thing about the network. This is coming from...
I'd certainly like more freight, shunting and loading/unloading scenarios. Acton and Southall yards need to be busier. A 59 wouldn't go amiss!
When people use terms like "pissed off" it sounds like people are mad about it. I'd say some people need to get a grip....or get Twitter.
Not fussed about it personally. Would have found out about cost eventually anyway. Seems many here simply can't wait and want all the information...
Agreed, but both Twitter and FB have far more reach than here. Notifications on apps for example. If I had to choose a means of getting a message...
It's probably related to their 13,800 followers on Twitter. They have 224,000 followers on FB for info. No idea of the number of active members...
It surprises me that you can even operate a train these days without having them enabled. Seems bizarre to have these systems bypassed so easily.
Checking is one thing but having to switch it on is not realistic.
Understand your point of view and that's a good idea to have it as an option in the settings. As it's a simulator, I think it should replicate...
Well there's no accounting for stupid, so you may have a point. Some of us may actually read it and take it into account before making a route...
So again it would be useful if DTG pin some guidance here in the forum as not everyone here watches the dev streams or has waded through all the...
Okay. That's useful. So it's a DTG preference based on cash flow I guess. Nothing wrong with that. Investing in years of development before being...
I think all safety systems should default to on in all routes and services/scenarios except ones that involve cold starts.
Agreed, but DTG are a UK based company so I'm sure they find it easier to gather research on UK routes. Not familiar with flight sims, but in my...
... aren't shiny so they shouldn't be shiny in TSW. That's all.
Think Devon and Cornwall might be too long an extension for GWE. Maybe to Oxford or Swindon or both.
That's a 47 at Norwich so you could run 37s and 47s.
They do don't they?
Too long.
Think this is beyond the realm of TSW. It's simply too long.
So is it Edinburgh to Glasgow or Newcastle to Edinburgh and Glasgow you are proposing? I think TSW is limited on route length to about 40-50 miles...
I'm not really concerned about the colour of the paint but there was plenty of livery variety in the 80s/90s. Most of these modern units are...
Removes pin from hand grenade: Let's face it there were more interesting trains in the 70s/80s/90s. More locomotives, more variety. Today it's...
What you've described is running around, which could be done at Leeds or Manchester Victoria on NTP if the service terminated there. What I'm...
I always liked watching the movements associated with turning around locomotive hauled passenger services at terminus stations. By this I mean non...
I'd like the NLL linked to GWE so you could run through with the freight. Then maybe add WLL and Goblin.
Wow. Think DTG need to sort it or tell EMD that they've also accidentally made an express passenger locomotive.
It really depends on how busy I am doing other stuff and if I fancy a change playing what I already have. I'm in no hurry basically and prefer to...
I'd prefer them to improve the visual and audio things before this gets looked at if I'm honest.
I'd say gas lamps were uncommon in 89.
Speedlink services were mixed freight in the 80s/90s. Seen plenty of variety in those consists. [img]56086 crosses the fast through lines at...
Good explanation of approach control here: https://www.davros.org/rail/signalling/articles/junctions.html
I don't think this point is made often enough. Not to mention the space and time a model railway takes to build.
I might be wrong but the TEA is air braked (the A at the end means Air) and the van is probably vacuum braked so they are not compatible unless...

Just FYI and maybe DTG know this already, but the Lackenby to Corby was called a "Tubeliner" because of how the coils were loaded. I think it was...
I note that you only get pinged for speeding if you exceed the line speed but it doesn't seem to be bothered if you exceed the locomotive or...
