Good stuff but suspect unless DTG can find a local partner to work on the project, sadly not a cat in hell's chance.
Appreciate the response. I'll resume the run later on. I know the transition takes place around about where you dive under the tunnel on the...
Deltic…:D:D:D Or a Paxman Valenta HST. Or even a Class 91 and Mark IV’s. And no rendition of the ECML complete without every seat on every train...
This is where it’s a shame DTG didn’t take forward routes like Bakerloo and add the remainder of the Euston to Watford DC Lines and North...
Think it’s about time we actually had a stickied ECML request thread… about the third one this week. There is also a high possibility the TBA new...
Yes please. Did the rail ferry crossing several times, mostly with classic UIC (uncomfortable!) stock on the Holland to Denmark and vv D trains....
The exception might be where locos already exist but bundle with the new route for those who don’t already own them. For example, a 1970’s North...
Had a normal timetable run on LGV come up last night with the randomiser. Of course you don’t get any of the help regards setting up the cab or...
Also traction released with one route may well layer into another - as we have seen extensively with the German stuff in particular. In fact my...
That was my point, SKW was very much low hanging fruit and not typical of a traditional route that length.
Good point, though surely EMT couldn't object to a bit of wear on the seat cushions or headrests or slight grime on the outside.
Actually I think the biggest issue with the colouring is the lack of weathering or in the case of the interior, wear and tear. Even ex-Works, not...
319 could then layer into a modern, electrified (yuck) Manchester or Preston to Blackpool North.
That's an interesting point and I did wonder earlier actually when walking back from the shops. I can live with the low res interior saloon so...
But they at least look realistic and detailed. As I said reluctant to pass absolute judgment before seeing the finished article but seems more...
Indeed, as I said in the other thread. Nevertheless there has to be concern when someone at Skyhook and/or DTG has approved this clip for public...
I believe sultanas are from green grapes and raisins from black. And yes, it’s years since I actually ate anything like that, got to watch the...
The one TSC route which keeps catching my eye is Peace River, but I can’t quite bring myself to buy it. Think the locos got mixed reviews on Steam...
Not whingeing, genuine concern particularly after a well respected member of the community has signed off on the 158 to the effect we are in for a...
As I said in the other thread, same sentiments. I think I now want to see and hear this in action in all notches before buying. Horn sounds offf...
Must admit I felt a wave of dismay when I heard those and the horn sounds a bit off too. 158 horn should be quite screechy. It all looks rather...
Our American cousins don’t know what they’re missing. On the other hand, apple pie in Denny’s a la mode. Or a real ice cream sundae in Dairy...
Mixed messages from DTG on this as it was at least hinted SEHS was rebuilt not bolted on to the existing route. However just about every route in...
NVM.
Which is strange really as they had no issue doing BCC with the complexity of New Street (albeit most of it inert) or all the locations on SoS. I...
The only route I thought I might have heard a bit of reverb sound going under bridges was on the PS5 version of SEHS. But that could just be...
Yes at some point the audit will come... Then there's the tricky side of remembering where you hid all the used gift cards in order to smuggle...
Even the new Niddertalbahn… several old girder bridges should have a good old rickety rattle going across, but apart from the same somewhat tinny...
Well it hasn’t stopped other routes where they don’t have licenses or CBA to include other company trains, BCC being a prime example with empty...
Jam sponge pudding, hmmmm….. (Homer Simpson voice).
I think that was what put me off NYT more than the bugs… Essentially about 40 miles of fast running once you crawl out to Newark. Should have gone...
Not having any real love for modern trains (apart from maybe the new TfW Flirts) doesn’t bother me one way or t’other. However in terms of...
Another leak. Still pre order discount is nice to see making a return, Just enough time to sneak off on the bike to Sainsbury’s (off to buy some...
Longer routes like SKW kind of defeat the point with half of it being in tunnel and most of the rest generic German woods and fields. However if...
Cab looks nice, let’s hope they’ve remembered to redact or fictionalise any real railway contact numbers on display!
:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
Good call. I mean although I would prefer the Class 81 to 87 era, I wouldn't be averse to a Pendolino in the game, over a Knotweed any day.
Not at all and it is a good point relative to steam too. Two or three branch or secondary lines could each have released with one or two locos...
Nor is it likely to tick many boxes with the current political climate. “Hi Vlad, Matt P here. Mind if we come and take pictures of your rocket...
Well they're all on leave now until some time after Easter, at which point no doubt priority will be barking up trade for EML and covering up the...
Of course it’s not just SoS which has suffered this fate. Several other DLC, notably Clinchfield, got high profile super hyped launches but never...
Wise words, either Fairford or something like the Lambourn branch which was by all accounts a lovely ride. For the LMS they could have done...
David Hey's site has a picture of an Ivatt 2MT 2-6-0 working a Derby to Buxton service, albeit in 1955. Same site also shows 2-6-4T tank engines...
Just looking Disused Stations and there is a 1957 picture of Buxton Midland with two rakes of LMS P3 stock (presumably for the very occasional...
I'm just dreading finding a Jubilee and 2 x Mark Ones working the Buxton services.
DTG give us a model railway to play with but no new trains to run on it…
Calder Valley always going to be too close to the existing NTP. Guess Hope Valley a possibility.
