Dovetail never, AFAIK, comment on the merit or otherwise of ideas in this section. The general consensus last time an ATO route was mentioned...

I think Gary was being ironic…

Problem is, DTG either can’t or don’t want to extend existing TSW routes. Numerous requests have been made re GWML, the oldest route in the game,...

Nice suggestion but knowing DTG they would do the route modern era and yet more plastic rolling stock.

It would be an interesting route, including the Severn Tunnel and potential for layers too.

Central Line has been put forward previously. Problem is ATO operation with 1992 stock doesn’t really offer much in the way of fun. Personally...

What’s on the Stream… ? 1. Rivet next project is Noddy and the Toytown Railway. 2. Steam is coming at Christmas, It’s the Polar Express and Tom...

Surely if the timetable and order of movements is scripted, there should be a checksum that the 09 doesn't move until after your train has arrived...

About the only useful thing it does offer is a test track to thrash the classic diesels for 45 mins along a bit of main line railway. However as...

I hated that in Snowrunner interior view. Fortunately there is an option to switch it off

100% support this suggestion.

I am familiar with the prototype having travelled the line a few times in BC Rail days, before it went to CN and the passenger service was...

Well equally there are those of us who feel Rivet dropped the ball on WCL. It bears only a passing resemblance to the prototype and is rife with...

The line is steeply graded but not through stations and not, AFAIR, up to 1.8% or around 1 in 60. It looks to me like they have followed the DEM...

So what about the almost complete lack of lineside fencing, overuse of trees, laughable level crossings, gradients all over the place..?

Under DOO Non Passenger regulations, in the same way that a freight train these days runs without a Guards van on the rear. However, all that...

Well now then, having finished with TS on the laptop and just gone upstairs on the main PC, I have been prompted to sign into TSW2. So it seems...

Can't really agree about the 1938 stock. Visually very good but sounds way off and some weird physics issues. For WCL, the 150 has been done to...

Not me you wouldn't! Especially if set in the 70's/early 80's! It's probably easier to say what I don't want - No.1 on the hate list being yet...

Just had to log into Live on TS on the laptop, after last playing TSW on the main PC yesterday evening. Wouldn't be so bad if it remembered your...

My memory is fuzzy now but I think it was permitted to run ECS with no brake vehicle but not in passenger service. For starters the emergency...

I travelled on the Hoek Van Holland to Copenhagen services, I think the day train was called Holland Scandinavian Express and the night train Nord...

In theory it wouldn't. However the Guard would be unable to carry out a brake test and operationally it is just wrong. I can live with the fact...

If as appears to be the case, Rivet struggle with open space routes set in hilly or mountain country, for their next piece focus on a built up...

Ah, you burst my bubble. You swine! :D. Harzbahn would be nice though. If course it could be a complete curve ball and they do that Japanese route...

The 10 coach Mark Two rakes with the Class 45 also have no brake vehicle (from my pre refund notes).

Actually I have been meaning to take a drive on the West Cornwall route which came with TRS2019 to compare. That did come in for some criticism...

One other slight issue I found going back through my notes, on the Up platform at Truro sign by the footbridge spells Penzance as penzance, looks...

Now talk of a historic route is getting the juices flowing a bit here. Hints and clues very welcome… :cool:

That’s the thing about “fire and forget”, you need to get it right first time.

I can go with that. Also in pole position for the S&D.

If licensing is an issue, then retro to pre 1994!

I've posted various suggestions over the last few months but the top three, in no particular order, are: Fort William to Mallaig preferably in the...

Now that I can agree on. Their RhB stuff in TS is excellent, too.

Believe me, I won't spend £25 if they churn out junk like WCL again... However I stand by the point that with WCL (maybe Arosa too) Rivet bit off...

Perhaps they should give Rivet a smaller budget route to work on, one that sells for £9.99 or similar as otherwise their learning curve becomes...

HST cabs are surprisingly loud. A few of the old Railscene cab ride videos demonstrate this, almost but not quite (unfortunately) drowned out...

Hope Valley could also do Pacers, albeit 142s. I remember the missus and I bouncing along from Sheffield to Edale or wherever it was we caught the...

Agree. They have had plenty of chances and continue to fall short. Otherwise it's like giving an employee more than one final warning. As I said...

For all its faults I do quite like TSW and it has huge potential. However, DTG need to pull their socks up, both in terms of the core which...

Fair comment Matina, but that learning should not come at the cost of £25 a hit to the end customer, who has no comeback unless they get a refund...

Love them or hate them, anyone who travelled on the UK network in the last 35 years probably ended up spending a significant amount of journey...

I remember travelling through Osnabruck in the 80s on the old D trains. If I recall, coming from Bentheim and heading out towards Hamburg, or vv,...

I voted “Yes” though with the caveat if they up their game then let them back in. The main problem with Rivet seems to be their arrogance. Not...

The only 150s I know that had disc brakes were the original 3 cars, 150001 and 150002. Travelled on them when they were briefly working the...

26s and 27s with steam heat stock on the locals for me, but the route welcome in any era.

It probably suppresses Liverpool because of "poo". Really DTG need to relax the profanity filter by about 95%, you get the same if you try to type...

I think West Highland out to Mallaig has got to be favourite. Would be nice with a 27 to accompany the steam, though I expect they will re-use the...

I forgot about the awards side of things. All the more reason to get it right in the first place.
