With respect, you must have been living under a rock not to have seen at least some of the discussion regarding steam traction. You could start...
In reality of course most possession (T3) trains would be fairly dull. Work to possession limits, admit to site then 20 MPH to the actual work...
About the only chance of this appearing is via a third party, probably within Russia. Regardless of one’s views about the current fisticuffs...
Looks like a nice loco, presumably also used for local trip freight working same as the G6?
Reading to Westbury could be quite interesting too, though set pre Hitachi and electrification. We could get a Class 59 to haul the jumbo stone...
Is the OP an actual suggestion or just an observation/question? But yes, US freight seems to have gone into hiatus. If you’re on PC there’s...
Well worth getting in TSC. Shame if it's unlikely to come to TSW, but never say never...
The Class 801 lacks pretty much any decent sound. There is a mod (for PC) but I found while it improved the track running sound it killed what...
Yes signalling caught me out the other evening approaching Standege Tunnel from Stalybridge direction. Distant off, outer home off, inner home...
Too difficult to get right it seems. The core just doesn’t cope with the complex physics and system interactions. DTG have basically said they are...
Already a similar thread running on this topic… https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/theories-about-the-new-uk-routes-coming.76347/
English please! IIRC, isn’t this an operator DTG have stated are not interested in talking about a licence?
Don’t let the door hit you… Nothing to do with being spineless, it’s accepting a realistic compromise to get a much wanted add on in the game....
I missed that bit, thanks. Breathes sigh of relief!
While probably not strictly accurate for the era, a decent Class 25/2 pack would go nicely if the route ever got a LIRR style update, along with...
That’s my biggest issue with the TSW version. In TSC the sounds are more balanced. Doesn’t help in the TSW version the switch to turn off the...
Let’s keep our fingers crossed TSG aren’t using Caterpillar sounds, then!
Just hope the sound is good. Didn’t the 218’s get additional silencing at some point? I know the one in TSC that came with the Kiel route was on...
The one thing on NTP that could do with improving is the tunnel portals, they do look rather odd. And of course with so many tunnels and bridges...
Still one of the best UK routes IMHO. Needs a bit of a refurb with TOD4 lighting and a better timetable but it captures the essence of BR Classic...
Have you opened the dampers to at least 25% front and rear? Need to trigger the fireman (if using so called manual mode) by opening the firebox...

I would take unbranded freight layers over none at all. Paint in historic New York Central or Pennsylvania colours but minus the name, would do...
Funny anecdote on that one. Back when I was distributing my MSTS routes on “at cost” CD-ROM’s, I eventually had a knock on the door and it was two...
Nice suggestion but any heritage railway is going to impose the dreaded 25MPH speed limit which is the main reason, despite the beautiful rework,...
Too true. I remember taking nearly a year on the first Cambrian Coast for MSTS with 3DTS. It cut into my spare time, resulted in hours upstairs...
Depends on the extension. Now if PFR did get the Derby to Manchester treatment, with a proper Blue Pullman unit and/or a green Class 45 that’s one...
Maybe not quite the same but I’ve had several instances now where I’ve spawned into a diesel loco hauled timetable run or scenario and the loco...
Keith Ross was a route building master to get all that done, along with the complex that is Carlisle. A shame DTG can’t get him on board to work...
The most recent worst example still has to be Peak Forest. Finishing at Ambergate made little sense, whereas Derby to Chinley would be far more...
His FB group is also closed to browsing unless you sign up. I was a member briefly, but the first time I put a cautious comment about the business...
I'll see what's about on the others, the other issue as already discussed is quite often what is available ends up with you driving the same short...
Well the quintessential problem with MP raises it's head again. The only ET22 run I could find on EN1 was approaching Lazy. On a section of line...
Who said anything about buggering things up? The point being if I install a freeware route that brings in a dozen or more different dependent...
When they were in power from 1997 to 2010 they did nothing to renationalise any of the utilities or organisations that had previously been...
Some AP is good. The one that disappointed me though was their Class 205 Thumper. It just didn’t seem to have that throaty purr of the prototype...
Er, suggest you read the title. This is the UK thread.
I stand to be corrected but in all likelihood ATS is a bunch of people working from home in their spare time. So items like rent, power etc are...
Certainly struggling! Not sure what the gradient is there but my train in the game was about the same weight, 2500 tonnes.
Managed to get a bit more done with the ET22 around Lazy. But the problem with freight workings is that you’re constantly getting slowed down and...
Oh I agree to some extent, don’t want to unduly restrict content creation. On the other hand, it’s not really right there is no regulation or...
Anyone wishing to make and sell content for the game needs to obtain a commercial licence which could define items such as selling price,...
In some ways it’s a shame DTG or their predecessors didn’t operate just a little bit more control over what could and couldn’t be done with the...
I knew someone would be along to correct me!! :cool::cool::cool: And a loco we definitely need in the game and absolutely no compromise on sound…
Perhaps his VAT and income tax bill finally arrived. Yegods, makes the £15 I paid for the SimRail ET22 last night seem a bargain (and a brilliant...
Bless you my son. And apologies for The Inquisition! :) Let’s not get too incensed, boom boom.
Yes I think the new LIRR will be great, the BCC of New York!
I suspect DTG are highly unlikely to want to engage directly with said individual (or anyone posting random reviews, good or bad) on various...
Until the GM Class 59’s arrived, fairly sure all UK diesel locos were 4 stroke cylinders. The Class 45 on NTP has a great cooling fan sound which...
Just had a quick run with the ET22. Very nice though a bit hampered by picking a train running through Julius which is plagued by 30 and even...
