At least if we offer constructive criticism here, DTG allow it. But by taking such action against quite valid feedback Rivet basically seal their...

Exactly why it needs a proper SP game. Much as I might be tempted by the new additions, I really can’t see me spending more money on this game...

Yes “old” is very much open to interpretation. By any stretch of the imagination, the original Pacer and Sprinter fleets are actually quite...

Sadly it's nowhere near as good as last years which plugged a few gaps in my collection where I was reluctant to even pay a sale price.

Are you resuming a saved game? Sadly some routes still have trouble with this and either the signalling fails to reinitialise or the AI trains...

Well sadly this time around I have them all. If some of the newer content like Maintal or Bernina had made it into a bundle I might have been...

Might have to change one of my selections to Cathcart, given the station lighting is still non existent after dark and the overall lighting...

Mind if it is a 380 and it is for Cathcart, they really need to sort out the station lighting. Just doing a run with the 314, after dark and the...

Many of us have worn the sackcloth and ashes over that one!

Yes. Please. Day. One.

Indeed. No one expects a one to one replica by if you’re doing a location as iconic as St Ives, then you need to set the heights a bit higher. Now...

Which is why I’ll probably wait until it’s eligible for a sale discount. 60% of the route, 40% off the selling price!

It’s so long since I played the TSC version, I can’t recall. However I did a run on TSW RSN yesterday evening and with the Jetwash lighting and...

Hamburg to Lubeck is actually a hidden gem, just be aware that it can suffer from stuck train issues if you resume a save game and the DB 182 is...

Do the route up, add a new loco and charge (say) £17.99 for it. So TVL we get a Class 56 and the route refurbished. NTP we get a Class 25 or a...

And change back to sunny. Why is it, once it descends into the sort of violent thunderstorm which would get headline coverage on the news...

I would say most of the classic BR stuff in TSW actually has very good physics, though you won't find me disagreeing about the state of steam...

It would really have benefitted too had DTG used it as the steam test bed and made a Pannier tank and Hall for the line, along with some ex GWR...

Yes it is a bit short really, particularly when set against ECML. And the Journey Mode could have done with a bit more to do before finishing,...

Rapid Transit would be okay if they fixed the almost silent train sounds and I believe the PZB is also broken. But it's so old, I fear not only...

Indeed, it was very much a prototype within TSW but now everyone at DTG has their feet under the table, so to speak, a makeover and extension...

Absolutely this. Which is by and large why my TSC route purchases are limited to what's on Steam and a complete package. Trawling round numerous...

The only drawback with RSN is that it should have fully emulated the TSC (old Rail Simulator) route and gone all the way from Hagen to Siegen....

I went for RSN (they could fix that broken 363 scenario at the same time), NTP, TVL, ECW and Arosa.

It's a lovely route, but as noted the 25 MPH speed limit can make even the gorgeous remake a bit tedious, especially on the coastal stretch where...

There is a difference between realistic and pleasurable vs. realistic and boring…

I think with DTG it's more the case of unfulfilled potential, where they stopped short of what was needed for a top class route. SoS - well we all...

North Wales Coast 1985, please! Or WCML Lancaster to Carlisle with the Windermere Branch, similar era. Though I guess their forte might also...

1983?! Day One please take £40 off me.

Well yes. Rivet’s banal attempt at Fife Circle. Then looks like the next keynote releases are going to be another cab car for the German stock,...

The other problem with US freight on the consoles is the lack of available button mashes for the more complex control system. It can also be...

Fairly sure I have suggested something similar in the past, even the BN Funnel from Sandpoint to Spokane would combine fast running, with nice...

And they also need to look at the gameplay strategy for US freight. In terms of running trains it is much less regimented than passenger or even...

I thought it might be. Of course the TSC version also lacks all the features we would get in TSW, opening cab windows (if it’s got them), open the...

As noted earlier, based on experience with the TSC version - claustrophobic cab with a tiny window, nearly as bad as the 385, no real perceptible...

It's very odd as American freight seems to be thriving in TSC (Tennessee Pass just released) and Run 8 goes from strength to strength. Yet TSW...

Well that would be better though it seems unlikely DTG would do a three train bundle when they barely give us one these days with a new route....

Oh not begrudging those that like them, just if you're playing these games for a bit of traction sound, aka thrash, then the cab car driving...

Same here. I just fired up TSC and drove both. The 380 is pretty much the same as the 385 - hardly any forward view and no traction noise. The...

At this point if you can live without the routes that only run on TSW4, unless it gets another heavy discount in a sale might be worth waiting to...

Well I just had a quick bimble in the TSC 380 and my suspicions were confirmed. It's another one handled abomination with a claustrophobic cab,...

ISTR the 235's were slightly better in that the seats were upholstered with cloth, but still pretty nasty not extending all the way up to the...

And second class passengers on the D Trains were usually dumped in a BM232 compartment coach with hard plastic seats that didn't even extend all...

Really not a fan of driving from cab cars. Can this be equipped with an option to pipe in the sound from the loco. please?!

And while I know the cab car is wanted by some of the German players, to me driving from them is dull as ditchwater, no traction sound and in the...

As I just posted in the other thread, poor choice vs. a 320 or even a 303. Another EMU with a letterbox view out the cab, maybe not as bad as the...

I would actually have preferred a 303 or, at worst, a 320 as the ones on the TSC North Clyde route actually sounded pretty good, traditional AC...

Are we sure it’s not an April Fools joke?

This. Cathcart is okay but round and round with a 380 is not something you’re going to want to do many times in a row. Better if it came with a...

Very true. I know I’ve been going on about Run 8 and the new switchers the last couple of days, but yesterday evening still found myself back in...
