Anyhow the main thing is… Will it come with a RMB Buffet Car!!! I’ll get my coat and MaxPax tea.
Love them or hate them, they are an iconic part of UK rail history and in the mid-80’s when Provincial aka Poverty Rail was on its knees probably...
Yes I just finished 3007. Luckily the earlier bug where your arrival road at Elkhorn was blocked by an outgoing train that failed to depart was...
Looks like it’s time for a few bike trips to Sainsbury’s/Argos buy a few more Steam vouchers to sneak past the wife. Expensive months ahead… Class...
Most UK tunnels rely on passive ventilation, i.e. through shafts or just drifting out the portals. One of the reasons in steam days crews hated...
No Matt. You were day dreaming about a Mark One RMB… I’ll collect my week’s ban over in the corner!:cool:
Exactly what happened when I did beta testing for Trainz years ago. Anything that wasn’t a red flag for release just got tossed to one side.
On the iPad at present so can’t translate the article. What if anything was speculated about price? Certainly interesting but if true knocks N3V...
I would say so, yes. I’m enjoying it.
Yes I worked on the railway for 41 years before taking early retirement in 2018 (shift work starting to take its toll), the majority spent in...
A Class 60 would be very nice. One of those was shunting the steel siding at Swindon a couple of weeks ago and is appreciably loud. A slightly...
The latter with my avatar serving at the counter, chucking pork pies and MaxPax tea at the punters…
This would probably play hell with frame rates but the current smoke effects tend to just vanish as you pass under a bridge or tunnel. This is...
Indeed. Beta Club is like Fight Club. First rule of Beta Club is we don’t talk about Beta Club! It will be interesting to see what hitherto...
The only traction IMHO where the sway is overdone is on the steam locos. The Jubilee in particular feels like it’s got a top heavy wobble and in...
As a stand-alone it would be fairly pointless. Integrated with BCC and including the Walsall line it would start to shape up a nice West Midlands...
I so want this… now!
Seems to have been mentioned in the Roadmap notes that the new testers have been notified. So "Yer name's not down, yer not coming in." At this...
You would need an AC electric if any meaningful section of the WCML was included, either an 86 or 87 which I highly doubt is on JT's remit.
It is still quite possible the big summer release involves the 700 and they don't want to impinge on that. But I agree a bit of licence could be...
Thanks for noting that. At least we know where things stand and it's a shame a more formal sticky wasn't popped at the top of the Suggestions...
Yes the wheelslip is still present at around 10 to 13 MPH but only briefly. Plus there still isn’t much in the way of traction run down...
Hellfire was the old bashers’ warcry for a rateable move or a loco with a bit of thrash or clag, which is why I postulated previously about the...
Actually my refund record is getting better. Of the recent items I purchased only Luzern to Sursee went back to the shop! Glossop has remained in...
It looks nice and I'm sure hours of work have gone into it but... I am getting reservations about the sound implementation and being able to hit...
Like I said earlier, love them or hate them they were a unique and iconic part of the UK rail scene for over 30 years. And will be fun to drive I...
Puts me in mind of the Railrover "bashing" game. Maybe an achievement is seeing how many locos you can scratch between Preston and BPN!
Fond memories of the 0615 from Inverness to Wick sat in the RMB which formed part of the Wick portion, for nearly five hours. Not to mention the...
Looking at various maps, going to Ormskirk probably easier scenery wise than going to Colne might have been. No really big townscapes to model and...
There is no legitimate way of reverse engineering models from TSC back to 3D Crafter or in the case of DTG probably Max. It would depend on the...
ROFLOL, my soapbox is alive and kicking. I would hope we get some reskinned blue/grey Mark Ones for the loco hauled services, but failing that...
As I said in another thread, something like Avery to Drexel from Trainz or the Appalachian route that Jointed Rail did would go nicely in TSW.
A 150/1 perhaps? Anyhow after reading the Roadmap article, mentions of Class 31, substitutions, etc. I am positively drooling in my morning...
You sir are the proverbial steely eyed rocket man! Thank you very much.
Never travelled on one or seen one in the flesh so to speak but there seem to be conflicting accounts already in the feedback as to how well they...
For Clinchfield, yes. Haven’t bought it for my PS5 version.
Even better if they had included the tram ride!
My only caveat about Clinchfield as someone noted previously, is that a high proportion of the runs seem to take place in the dark and/or poor...
Suspect I've already got everything else in the bundle, unless it includes RHTT or ROG, but yes £12.99 is a fair price.
It is definitely going to be a route to dip into now and again. Like BCC or Cathcart before it there is very little variety in the Journey mode...
Will there be a preorder period or discount for the Class 700?
Thought we already had a JT thread but anyway… Regardless of the exact extent of the route, think this may be a Day One purchase for me, maybe...
Right, after finishing my current run on Glossop to Manchester time to warp across to Clinchfield and push the next Journey segment or scenario!
We need to talk nicely to “Otto” over at Run 8! Though he is not infallible and when I ran Donner I had to step in and despatch myself a bit to...
Unless of course the single track section is on the Blackpool South section or it could be the top end of the Colne line, which to me would have...
We can but dream though...
Given the MML destinations, I'm still going with my original sweepstake prediction it will be Bedford to Blackfriars.
Ormskirk to Blackpool is certainly a curve ball if true. Just wondering what (if any) through workings existed during the likely time period the...
Never been on or near a real 700. I know it's hard to judge from a 60 second video clip but anyone with experience of the real thing, how...
Indeed. I have not read what Jane from SHG has put as an undertaking to extend the existing route mileage (Sheffield, Kettering or whatever), but...
