The RMB is king! But seriously in the ideal world we would have got both and yes the RBR, either with the plastic bucket seats or free standing...
Certainly on flat routes, the horizon draw distance could be pulled in. I think SimRail still gets away with 2km and it doesn’t look too bad. Then...
Izal! Eek. [ATTACH]
And if the pork pie is a bit off, gonna need access to the toilet compartment for the LOVE flush! Getting my coat…
Just ask Matt P… I’ve been making a nuisance of myself about getting a buffet car in the game since the first UK Classic route appeared. He will...
Maybe part of the issue there is that the survey results are rarely, if ever, made public. So there I am frantically rearranging preferences to...
Definitely with you on this. It seems ludicrous to post a release article - including price - without actually saying when we can get our grubby...
Isn't that the 104? They were more common around South Manchester though definitely worked to Blackpool. In fact I have memories of cramming into...
I wasn't aware TSC used Simugraph. Never really delved into that side but aren't physics etc. derived from a combination of blueprint and custom...
I wouldn't be too sure about Roadcraft. The demo wouldn't run beyond a sideshow on my PC. Turns out it needs a minimum 6Gb graphics card. So I'm...
You could also have a small number of passengers travelling with dogs on a lead. Good one for conductor mode, "Get that mutt off the seat."
It would benefit from some Mark Three sleeping cars for the night trains. The seated accommodation on those tended to be Mark II's both aircon and...
I will have to test the alpha save game again, see if they have pushed a silent update.
That certainly sealed the deal, for sure.
The 642's have been noted as a but sluggish by those who know them, particularly at the top end. I quite like them, though. The gear change...
As someone who hates driving from cab cars, I have to say being able to run WCMLoS in both directions from the loco, is delightful.
TSW5 may have been "free" for a while, but as just touched on in the JT Class 86 thread it has one of the most expensive DLC policies of any game....
Not just on console. The PC also needs a much wider range of graphics options, allowing us to optimise or tame things to our taste.
Many current DTG routes couldn't work in the same way that SimRail does. Many modern routes are controlled by large signalling centres with a...
I'll raise you a Class 25 on that hand...
I watched a YT clip the other day, might have been RichyRails, the Cardiff version sounded different but still not right to my ears. That throaty,...
I think the best that can be said for Conductor Mode at present is that it adds (maybe) something to do while travelling as a passenger.
Disagree. The whole point of these routes was to encapsulate the last days of BR Classic along with sectorisation creeping in.
It would be nice but reading between the lines I get the vibe SHG are either no longer interested in doing routes, or haven't got anyone on staff...
IMHO this would have been more appealing than the S-Bahn we are getting. Problem likely to be, DTG don't like doing sub surface stations die to...
Ah I saw that but resisted the temptation to post the obvious response!
Plus it was a bit of thread hijack/drift given the 91's etc are ECML and this is specifically about an 80s era WCML add on... :)
Not only that, there are plenty of routes which could be made with the existing BR Classic collection (well maybe adding some blue/grey Mark...
Well there was an exploit in that completing the free play type scenarios on some routes checked off the Conductor requirements. Save just before...
+ various TSC devs, SimKol etc!
Wrong era.
If that’s answering my question, then what is that awful fluttering noise that seems to kick in above 70 to 75 MPH? Oh well, no wonder meddling...
Well helpful, if not exactly what many of us want to hear… :( Guessing my dream of heading out of Inverness in TSW on the 0615 to Wick circa 1978...
On a slightly different tack, having a run with the 87 and while the sound distortion of the traction motors etc. is still evident when the game...
TBH I would be nervous about getting this for PC. Frankfurt was a slide show yesterday evening on the Kinzig route so I fear this will be the...
Maybe. But then why announce an eagerly awaited add on is releasing if you can’t print the actual release date?! Just seems a bit daft to me.
We also just had the route DLC for SimRail for less than £10, going up to £12. DLC for ATS and ETS2 DLC generally comes in at around £10. Quebec...
DTG Harry Why are you holding back the release date in what is effectively the release announcement?
Well it needs to work as intended, i.e. you actually get some passengers on the train who need their tickets checking. I did a couple of attempts...
Ah yes, the Frankfurt suburban line thing. Well as it stands I'm probably passing on that at least until initial feedback is in. Frankfurt was an...
I just wonder whether the scenarios and some of these services will be abstracted into a Journey Mode? And getting away from price, I genuinely...
Also don't forget SoS was created largely to appease the whims of the the CEO Paul Jackson who wanted to stand on a (as it turned out slightly...
I don't deny the pack is good value but even allowing for inflation we seem to have moved a long way from the £11.99 pitch for a "train" pack...
FTFY!
Good point, I was forgetting the time period of the route! As regards the RMB interior, just had a quick look through the Parkin book and it is...
The 86 was far more common place on passenger services. The 87’s were mainly used on the Anglo Scottish services. The 86’s would be working inter...
Appreciate that Tom, as I said probably just being pedantic. Oh and possibly one (two) items missing from the buffet inventory - the famous Mr...
My only slight observation about the RMB is whether the style is a bit muddled with the eras. Externally we have Commonwealth bogies and superb...
Well the sight of that RMB interior has cheered me up. Take my money now!
Oh yes still Day One and I don't begrudge the money on this one. But we are still seeing an inexorable shift on pricing levels.
