Useful link Pete, bookmarked. Strange to see the huge gaps even after all this time no commercial routes in Sweden or Norway which puts into...

Strange to say having read that in the manual I was dreading having traded one memory intensive route for another I had shot myself in the foot....

Sorry to say but after numerous OOMs trying to resume a saved game plus at least one broken scenario I refunded it. Now spent the money on the NZ...

It would be nice but from DTG’s point of view they are going to be thinking of replay value and diverse activities as there really isn’t much to...

Cardiff to Bridgend via Pontyclun or the VOG might be doable. Tweak the era right and you could still have a fair bit of freight traffic. All...

I would rather see a Class 165 than this elecrotrash. Or better still a Class 117 for the Legends pack.

Well as a “Provincial” DMU Controller at Swindon when these were first introduced, they were not without teething problems. But they were far...

I do recall sometime in the mid 60’s my dad taking me from Felling to North Shields to watch a football match and it was definitely an electric...

Manchester to Bury prior to Metrolink was worked by Class 504 EMU's, which utilised a slightly different third rail system with side contact and...

Set back in BR days, licensing issues averted. Set in the mid 70's and you could have a mixture of Class 123 Inter City and Class 120 Cross...

This is a great route in TSC, either Newport to Hereford or Hereford to Shrewsbury, assuming the whole is too big, would be marvellous in TSW....

Return to Maerdy only has scenarios at the top end of the branch too, between the colliery and the sorting sidings.

Well I had a toss up between this and the NZ route for TSC. The NZ route won, though the supplementary Ja steam loco isn’t in the sale, still...

That’s generally where Huddersfield can be found in TSW… :)

Yes it is even affecting GWE now, post update and very annoying.

I just bought this and the Midland route in the sale. Well the loco isn't in the sale but the whole thing looks too good to pass up.

NIR for me would be more iconic with the old DEMU’s.

As with most UK heritage lines, 25 MPH with frequent lower restrictions for crossings and station loops.

Although not strictly the era, would be nice to see a cameo from Felix (who is actually a girl!) and Bolt at Huddersfield, for the floof…

This really should be moved/merged to the thread in the Off Topic forum.

East Lancs is around 13 miles…

Although not a fan of the 25 MPH grind of heritage railways, I would make an exception for the East Lancs!

I would certainly get the 33 and 52. Both far more enjoyable than the 09 and 47.

The main thing the ECML has going for it, is its "racetrack" reputation. But therein lies the problem in TSW, as we see with SEHS... By the time...

Apart from maybe the first few miles out of London, maybe to Hitchin. There’s a few bumps and hills around Grantham, Stoke Summit etc and the...

Still broken... Another DTG fire and forget product.

Possibly 92’s but generally the freight companies stuck with diesels.

Personally I only eat Kettle Salt and Vinegar crisps..! (Food snob alert :) ). But back OT sort of, they can put this LOVE in the game but can’t...

I thought they might have tantalised us with 10 to 15% off SoS, but guess we will have to wait until December for the discount to kick in. I had...

May go back for a second dip before the sale ends, get the Bossman Rebuilt Bulleid Light Pacifics, also the West Somerset. Latter not of...

The Class 91 was the mainstay of ECML passenger operations, using Mark IV stock with a DVT for push/pull operation.

I had to reboot my PC after placing the orders, then went back into Steam and downloads came thick and fast.

Steam sale now live. Some good bargains to be had. Many routes 45% off. The Metropolitan Line pack with the S7 stock is under £20, something like...

£18.91 for the route with S7+1 pack in the sale, Can't not buy at that price. In fact, went in the basket before Welsh Marches. Something like a...

Hopefully we will see some good discounts in just over 10 minutes though equally part of me is expecting to see only about 20% off at which point...

Actually reading further, it looks like the main issue is that the route itself does not actually come with a train, just an AI version of the S8....

Thanks guys. The bundle sounds the way to go assuming it gets that level of discount. The other route I definitely want to pick up is Welsh...

I am also looking at the (JT) Metropolitan Line but as I posted in the TSC section, so far without response, there is a disconnect between the...

Fair enough Gary!

To put things in perspective re Arosa… I just bought the Run 8 Donner Pass route. It is lovingly created so far as the infrastructure and railway...

Continuing on the Japanese theme, The Story Of Forest Rail is a beautiful route, complete with a couple of quirky trains.

You would have to find one of the Class One non-stop runs from Paddington to Reading to test the ability, probably a Newbury or Bedwyn service.

I am going for the Marches route from Newport to Shrewsbury. It is done by Bossman games who have a reputation for quality and is also needed for...

Having finished the 2R37 run to Reading, I came in about 5' late overall. It was noticeably harder to keep time on the longer sections and on...

The Thames Valley 165's were geared for 90 MPH, AFAIR but as I said earlier, generally the 166's were kept off the Paddington stoppers being...

Real drivers are taught to drive defensively, the more so in degraded conditions such as rain or autumn leaffall. So ragging the train away from...

Well we need our resident 166 driver to comment but I would say about right. Put it this way, I was stopping from 800 yards from 60 MPH using a...

Have to concur, the 166 is now very nice and please keep the physics "as is". However the timings are definitely tight, 2 minutes late at Slough...

It is a fair comment...
