Nice set up. I love hearing AI sound the horn. A great chaos run and a chance to run a nice route that I had not thought about in a while - thanks!
Working the Capitol Limited into the SPG timetable would be great. I enjoy running the new SD70 and its physics package on SPG now. Having mile...
These are really nice liveries! Thank you!
I would also like to ask about performance updates to Sherman Hill relative to changing the grass asset to improve frame rates. I love the route...
I recognize all these shortcomings and look forward to TSW loco's with all those features. However, I must admit to really enjoying the SD70ACe;...
More Track 3 Action on Sherman Hill: The 12:20 Hermosa to Laramie run takes a very heavy ethanol train down the steep grade on track 3. It is...
It does not affect frame rate, but it does prolong the transition as scenery in the distance appears and makes the pop in not so obvious. It is...
This is what does it for me. I also had to turn it off for Sherman; even then the grass vexes my GPU. r.ViewDistanceScale=5...
Not to go to far off-topic, but I think it’s important to remember that pre-pandemic, Amtrak covered about 95% of its operating costs while...
I really like this route, but the grass is taking my FPS down into the 10-15 range, even with foliage setting on low and no ini mods. My PC specs...
Sherman Hill Cheyenne Yard to Hermosa Intermodal at 16:38 It is a nice run up the hill into the sunset and moves over to track 3 at Hermosa for...
Sherman Hill: Racing up the 3 Track Start in the 10:37 automotive service Larmie to Hermosa. This service goes up Track 3 where the grade...
An SPG run, already recommended previously by solicitr , but even better with the SD70ACe which subs in on SPG. The 11:30 G089 Grain train from...
Thank you for that reply. It is exactly what I am experiencing. I’m glad to know that it is not an issue with my PC. Hoperfully, a performance...
Thanks for the replies. When I adjusted the foliage slider, I didn’t see a change in frame rate at that specific location. When I get home, I...
I bought a pretty beefy PC 2 ½ years ago – which likely delayed when I can retire! I got a Dell Alien with the following specs: NVIDIA GeForce...
One other interesting thing about Saluda is that there was a runaway train diversion. When you reached the start of the downhill grade, a spring...
I enjoyed her voice overs on Boston Sprinter and will be starting out on Sherman Hill soon. Thank you for the bonus stream last night - enjoyable...
Two more DRA runs before I fire up the SD70 ACe. The 13:49 freight run from Rodereau to Dresden. [SPOILER] The 08:04 Meißen Triebischtal to...
Excellent video! I haven’t opened up Sherman Hill quite yet. I have a few more DRA runs I want to try first. Are the minimum reductions at just...
Do you remember the service? I would love to drive it.
There is a great Trains magazine map that Blacknred81 posted on the first page of this thread. Magnify it and read it. It is full of useful...
What magnificent horns! With two different varieties for each loco and access to a number of prototypical North American horns. This bodes well...
So the western end of track 3, which serves the cement plant, is included. Excellent! The article also mentioned Borie cutoff. Will there be AI...
Running autoracks up and down DRA: The updated DRA freight timetable is full of good runs; here are two that I really enjoyed. Both are 970 ton...
orb has a great way of thinking about it posted above. There is a learning curve involved, but I have found head tracking to be worth the curve....
A quick update with the recent BML, WCL, and HRR additions. Recommended Service Runs as of 11/11/21:...
These are enjoyable quick services, 1Z32 in particular. I went to free roam at Redhill, enjoyed the traffic, and took over the 12:22 service...
The Gronk Shuffle on West Cornwall: The 09:30 Pilot Loco Release service with the Class 08 is a veritable ballet of locomotives coming and going...
I must admit that I am enjoying thrashing the diesels up and down this roller coaster of a route. It is quite a challenge to stay smooth and on...
That was a great run! The Gronk even sounds the horn as AI. The 3C24 mail service looks like fun as well; next on my list.
I haven’t driven the route yet, but I think I remember from the stream that hitting either of the buttons that opened the doors will close them.
Freight on the BML - as recommended by Joe: 7V00 Newhaven Day Aggregates to Acton TC with the Class 66. The loco is a beast, but doesn't exactly...
I have come across some fun freight services recently. I came back to Clinchfield once the Rush Hour update came and freed the camera from the...

Another recommendation from Joe: BML 5B90 Parts 1-4 Selhurst T&RSMD to Lovers Walk T&RSMD with the 313. Start with part 3 if you don't want to...

The dusk and dawn transitions are nice on the Dresden route.
It is not straightforward IIRC! paul.pavlinovich has a nice tutorial here: [MEDIA]
The DB 101 is perhaps the best TSW loco available. Alexander L. has created a mod where you can sub it in for any German freight on all routes:...
Thank you! I can’t wait to get home and run these.
Thank you, Joe, for an excellent timetable! It is fun to experience such a well crafted and busy route. From the stream, I remember you...
US air brakes can be difficult to conceptualize. What you should remember is that you can apply them in small increments, but you can’t partially...
A very interesting DRA Freight Run: Dresden - Riesa at 10:08. Expect about an hour ... It is a loaded intermodal train. I ran mode M with a max...
I don’t have any ini settings relative to lighting. I love running DRA at night, but always do so with mimimal cloud cover. On my PC, I get just...
Another DRA run: RE50 Leipzig - Dresden at 16:45 with the 146. I am really enjoying that loco! [SPOILER]
Personally, I tend to like the newer versions better, mainly because of the sounds. I was having trouble keeping up with the versions until I...
