Yes, that's right. Later rebuilt as an A3.
Well, apparently it stemmed from Awdry handing his illustrator a photo to work from. What mattered was that it was an 0-6-0T, not that it was a...
A Topham Hatt modeled on Matt P would be epic
Using cobbled-up "Thomases" based on something else, since there are no surviving E2s. So what's "fictional"?
[IMG] E2 [IMG] Jinty Similar, but Thomas is an E2
Nobody knows why Sam chose to leave; neither he nor DTG have ever said, nor do I expect them to. There is no evidence that he "tried to challenge...
After all, for Gordon they would just have to repaint the Scotsman blue (acc to the lore, Gordon was an experimental A1 later rebuilt to A3...
That's true. The old stop-motion models were vastly better than the cheesy CGI.
+1. IF a revamped steam system is part of this, then it's a huge win wrapped in candy-coloured paper.
Man, what a bunch of Debbie Downers! I think it's a clever move- and for those who think trains are Deadly Serious Business... well there's still...
A problem inherent to the introduction of any new country is that there isn't an installed base of rolling stock built up
So, DTG JD, do I get a DLC?
I don't know about the Vectron, but the lone ICE 3M in 2012 was towed there - it wasn't allowed through the Tunnel under its own power.
It does appear underwhelming. At least Maintalbahn gave us a new DMU.
I'm still looking forward to Combat Mode.
That isn't altogether true wrt Germany, where Bremen and LFR are set in the past, and the 111 and 218, while still used today, certainly don't...
Ah. Shame, that.
Length = time. "2 miles a week" is what one dev says was the target for moderately developed rural lines- that goes exponential in an urban...
Really disappointing, that. Especially since the opportunity was forgone to use the wonderful white/black/yellow Baden-Wurttemburg livery
Hmmmm- How many millennials and Gen-Zers grew up with Thomas the Tank Engine?
Exactly. I don't understand the assumption that people will only buy what they're familiar with; what I would love to see is old pre-Amtrak US...
While that's a nice wishlist, this is just a gameplay pack- in other words, DTG are not going to develop new locos at this price point. We get new...
1970s design sense was.... interesting
It also inadvertently killed the BR 103s; they weren't designed to pull such heavy trains so often and they wore out prematurely.
Thank you mkraehe#6051 and Lamplight and AmityBlight for correcting my misapprehension. I had thought mistakenly that all IC coaches were...
All right, I stand corrected. But were they ever painted Ozeanblau? I thought they were all exclusively for IC/TEE trains
There are no roof ridges, characteristic of the UIC Z type. And at least to my eye the windows are spaced too closely together.
I don't believe the ones in the photo are Z-Wagen; the windows and roof are wrong. Also, if I'm not mistaken, all of the Bpmz were purchased for...
Although after his hair went silver he did look a little like von Karajan!
IIRC, in 1989 cab cars were only used on S-bahnen and similar commuter trains, where quick turnaroundfs were important. Cab cars on long distance...
Confused by this: There was never a blue TEE livery,* nor did UIC Z-coaches ever appear in blue (originally crimson/beige, then white and...
Leonard Bernstein ist kein Deutscher
TSW5 does have a vastly improved 2D map, with added fast travel
I am MAJORLY stoked for Mittenwald! Especially the ton of new/reworked rolling stock, including n-Wagen with their original interiors and (non)...
We already have them (heavily refurbished) in the FLIX train. But yes, I would love to have them in their original form, in blue/ivory or even...
Yes and yes- not only that, but given new LU and (unbranded) HX liveries
Riesa-Dresden in probably the best all-around German route in TSW; all it lacks is high-speed LZB running. (Frankfurt-Fulda might take the crown,...
He did some lovely mods, including a very good Clinchfield enhancement pack, and a redone Gatwick with new (realistic) planes for BML. But, yes,...
I suspect most 8th-gen owners already understand that they can't run, or can barely run, 2024 games. Heck, most publishers have ditched 8th-gen...
It's a six-dollar gameplay pack. You don't get a new loco for that price
Also, this means that the "engineering" programming is already done for the F59PHI (streamlined body like an MP36 on the same chassis), which is a...
I mentioned that too. Surely there's a clever programmer out there DTG could hire to un-bollix the situation. Conceptually Simugraph can handle...
Agreed; Railroader already does that quite well. Besides, the whole DTG edge (real life branding and routes) would go by the wayside.
Very pleasant, since it's a much higher performance train than the poky little 642. The 612 subbed in for ICE-TDs for a while, whereas the 642 is...
