Slightly at a tangent to this but IMHO the whole train handling and scoring needs to be overhauled. You can speed, sometimes doing nearly 2 x the...

Oops... In that case please disregard my section about value for money until I can edit the post.

*Original paragraph deleted as I misinterpreted the extent of the route.* Having been pointed out to me the main line section includes Truro I am...

This, if I never see another 42x EMU, Dosto or modern electric loco I would be quite happy. Let's have something where we can play around in the...

Except that loading coal is one of the objectives for the first mastery achievement!

Bit uninspiring, TBH. was hoping to pick up ECW at half price but not even among the items, that I can see. Will wait until Steam sale goes live.

That's why when FGW were outstabling HST's at locations like Hereford, they needed to go on shore supply. If there was an issue with the shore...

And I also did that, with the same result. The F7 simply moved up, stopped, came forward and coupled to the consist then... nothing!

Just ordered a replacement off Overclockers UK, seem to have a better selection than the Rainforest.

Looks like it is a faulty gamepad. Detached it from PC and all menus now working correctly. Fired up ETS2 and mouse now stable, though try driving...

Having done that the reply I got from Support (Chris) was less than sterling. With specific regard to Clinchfield, the advice was to complete the...

I looked at that but don’t think there is enough room between where the F7 has positioned itself and the front of your train to get even close to...

I will see what I can salvage later. Unfortunately new genuine Xbox 360 controllers seem to be a rare commodity. Thought I would treat myself to a...

Thanks I’ll give that a try.

I went with Japan, though others were a close second. But not a high speed Shinkie line, either a commuter, tram or rural route - something from...

Too long for a TSW route.

Especially as Journey mode is supposed to be a gentle, phased introduction to the route!

Well, at least until the save game borks up...

At least with DTG and Steam there is the opportunity to wait for a sale, plus the two hour money back window. Compare that to Run 8, as much as I...

Yes it was (unlocked).

Thanks for the offer but I want to try and get this done myself!

I just had another go and same thing happens... the F7 couples up and then just sits there. This was on a clean play, no save or load involved....

I suspect the despatcher is much akin to that in MSTS and TS. It decides when you launch the scenario where trains will meet and won't deviate. It...

Is that really that common these days, hanging on the side or sitting on the roof? The latter is certainly not a good idea on 25Kv electrified...

It should be possible to both prompt (when you want to give up) and suppress (to avoid when not in the cab out of necessity) the pop up command.

I presume by constant you mean consist? Well yes it's a good idea and has probably been put forward several times already, along with a decent...

Must admit I got about 40 minutes into this earlier and was beginning to think, what's the point..? I suspect it is to give experience of yard...

They could do a retro pack similar to that done for GWE.

Think I suggested this one a while back... My preference (as always) would be late 70's/early 80's when operation was still largely with...

Pretty good list but one I would add is the Class 108 DMU, which were fairly ubiquitous and at some point we will get a UK route where they'd be...

As I've said previously, there are definitely elements from Run 8 they need to consider implementing, before contemplating any more heavy haul...

That first picture with the traditional loco hauled got my juices flowing! One of the lines I always wanted to travel over but never did. I...

Not going to happen at present due to Covid. Not going to happen on any national railway as there are all sorts of rules and competencies that...

Still a bit of a workaround though vs. having a generally brighter night or a means of adjusting the gamma.

We just need an option for brighter nights, across all routes not just this one. NTP is another example, you roll into big towns and cities -...

Yes and the most arcane un-mnemonic key command structure, ever! However for industry based play and car forwarding not to mention train physics...

Not to worry, off to run Kicking Horse Pass in Open Rails instead (got to love those CP Nathan KL5A horns!).

I'm about to try this again from my saved game, but one would have thought an AI move would either ignore the state of the brake system...

No where is that mentioned in the instructions. Guess it’s one more trick to try in order to get through this accursed scenario which is driving...

While six hours would be excessive, TSW definitely needs a x2 or x4 time acceleration function, when not actually driving, to speed the world up....

They are challenging and buggy! Certainly seems unless you do the actions exactly as the author envisaged, even without the outright bugs they may...

Nope, I tried the solution as posted earlier but after the lone F7 couples to the rake of wagons it still refuses to move anywhere, making the...

The problem is with these scripted scenarios, unless you perform the actions exactly as proscribed, you can’t move forward to the next bit.

Yes, like the time I was running the Swindon/Didcot sim and had a track circuit failure at Swindon East completely locking up trains out of P1/P3...

Or read the Expanse and Last Kingdom novels...

Then let me go full on Run 8 and take over the despatching as well! At least in those areas.

Guess I'll try it again doing that...

It is bugged. My split wagon rakes were all clear of the points and still the AI would not haul away. Which is why as I said in another thread...

Give us a timetable editor and let the users create their own. But in the absence of that, some modifications in the interest of playability and...
