The UP substitution can certainly be too much. However, it would be a shame to lose the SD70Ace physics in the timetable on the SPG grades. A...

Two things on Clinchfield are all it takes to make it worth the price in my opinion: The F7 – my favorite US loco to drive. The Limited Power...

One comment on the SPG section: there was talk of removing the UP locos from the timetable as substitutions. This would disappoint me. A...

I was sold as soon as they said, “Timetable by Joe.” And then they blew the horn on the SD - 40! Improving gameplay with additional services and...

I came across a save issue in DCZ. After a save, when I try to take over a 612 service, I can rev the engine, but not move. This persisted...

DCZ Eastbound Freight 85303 Zwickau - Berlin at 14:20 This is a 1168 ton train down the ramp and controlling speed is a challenge. We don't have...

There’s a nice short tutorial video on the power changeover by British Ace here: [MEDIA]

I don’t mean to speak for LeadCatcher. However, for me, it’s something more like accepting that any software is going to have bugs. I wish this...

If you have the 101, both are those runs on HHL are excellent.

Updated for DRA and DCZ! Nice!

DCZ Eastbound Chaos with the 612 It's the 612 at night, with bright headlights on a beautiful route. It's controlling speed going down the 2.5%...

I’m not really sure and I was hoping someone would be able to chime in on this. Basically, there is no easy way. One thing I find very helpful is...

I totally agree with all the positive comments here! If you told me I could only have three TSW routes - and I have nearly all of them, this...

So many good ideas here. To this I would just like to add fixing the grass assets in Sherman Hill so that they allow for better frame rates. I...

DCZ Eastbound Chaos A relatively easy set up for a good run: Start in a freight loco and in service 85035 (part 1) Freiberg (Sachs Pickup) at...

I really enjoyed this service! Because of the possible PZB issues, I ran it first with the 185.5 and then, through a mod, with the 101. Plenty...

The introductory manual that DTG needs is already out there; it’s your Starters Guide. This is perhaps the single best resource I’ve ever seen for...

This has happened to me as well, but only with the 406 liveries I have imported. They are available in Livery designer, but don’t show up for...

From my understanding with limited driving and stream watching, when it is flashing, you are good and under the expected braking curve. When it is...

They are there - numbers 27 and 215 on the spreadsheet. I enjoyed both runs. Check and make sure I listed them correctly. I think the ECW run...

I just had my first run with the 612. Wow! This is the most enjoyable loco in the game for me. What an engaging experience it is to drive on...

What a workout that was. I can only recall one green signal the whole run! Here is another DRA Freight run I enjoyed: Riesa - Dresden at 04:45....

Really nice introduction video by paul.pavlinovich here: [MEDIA] He also has tutorial videos for the locos on his channel. Can’t wait to...

Two BML scenarios to recommend: Quarry Line Quandry with the 387/2: tons of AI, even by London Commuter standards, with a bit of dynamic weather,...

I believe it is one of the runs that was added to SKA the purchase of the 187.

A run with the DB BR 187 on SKA: DB 83168 WB Mixed Cargo at 20:30 It is a 520t train. The run works in PZB mode M, but it also works in mode O...

Thanks for posting this; it makes the route even more impressive for me. I look forward to the chance to have an extended visit to Germany so...

The 612 looks fantastic and sounds great. The horn is also excellent! But all I really needed to hear was that Maik was involved in building the...

I am glad to hear it is going well. When you feel confident with PZB, give this freight run a try: DB 88127 at 15:41 Have a finger poised for the...

The Charing Cross Turn - sort of ... Here is a nice, but not quite contiguous 465 "Nippy Networker" round trip on SEHS. Start off in 2L10,...

I am spending time on SEHS and remembering how much I enjoy driving the Javelin. It is so cool to change over power and safety systems. I found...

I was pleasantly surprised a while ago when my profile was saved from the last TSW2 run. Now I know why!

Here is what I run normally: [SystemSettings] r.ViewDistanceScale=5 foliage.LODDistanceScale=5 foliage.DitheredLOD=5...

Thanks for that recommendation, but surprisingly adjusting foliage quality gets me a 2-3 FPS boost at most in that situation even at the lowest...

Recommended Service Runs as of 1/4/22 with a tip of the hat to LeadCatcher and Callum B:...

Thank you for posting this. I have shied away from Sherman Hill because it dips my FPS into the single digits in some places despite the fact...

If you have Sherman Hill, set up a run in Scenario planner with the SD70 Ace. I know in SPG, I can sub this loco into the timetable. The improved...

The 185 and 146 are good locos for learning PZB; they display restricted speed limits on the dash. Have fun and let us know how it goes!

I have been less engaged with TSW over the holidays, but did I miss a list of top 10s somewhere?

I completely agree; driving a good service with PZB is the most enjoyable and engaging task in TSW2 for me. And I never would have anticipated...

Or gone for a wander at a busy station and then realized that you can’t remember which train is yours.

So many complaints on this forum, but so much fun to drive can be a recurring theme for some of the routes and DLC here. SEHS is very impressive...

I just ran (and enjoyed!) this one again and it worked for me. Plenty of adverse signals and some 1-2 minute waits, but nothing that didn't...

Such nice horns! And I love the lapped brakes in the F40PH.

Both routes are quite enjoyable as is the ACS 64. The combined power handle of the ACS 64 provides minimal braking and is mostly used for fine...

The 101 runs on Hamburg Lubeck are very enjoyable and a bit challenging.

From a gameplay point of view, I think TSW2 made great strides last year. It wasn’t too long ago that it was quite difficult to find an adverse...

I am also a bug fan of the Javelin. What a great cockpit. I wish I could run it in the chaos of the BML timetable!

It was a year that saw the release of my 3 favorite locos: the 465, the F7, and the DB 101. The complexities of the BML and DRA timetables were...
