That's a little misleading. The 218 is just another variant of the V 160, which first rolled in 1960. The 218/ V 164 is simply a V 160/216 with HEP.
Agreed- I would have preferred it be set ca 1990, with a nice mix of orient red/Produktfarben and blue/ivory
In theory, sure. But 143s never and only a small number of 110s (actually 115s) ever pulled modern ICs.
True, which is why I specified n-Wagen; the OP was discussing the diesel desk, which is peculiar to the Karlsruher Kopf (also, n-Wagen aren't air...
I doubt any Lokalbahn with n-Wagen would be nearly heavy enough to require doubleheading, and freights don't use cab cars.
Anyone who has ever worked in government knows that isn't true
What were you doing driving a freight at 130? 120 is the absolute maximum, and more usually it's 100 or less.
Era. Amtrak retired its F40s years ago, and I don';t believe there are any routes in the US (aside from Clinchfield) older than 2016. Besides,...
No.
IIRC, with sempahores one distant could be associated with a series of home signals; a Caution didn't mean "next signal stop" but "one of the next...
A significant part of that Roadmap was devoted to the 'expert' BR 101. Or does tthat not match your idea of a simulator?
That's odd considering there's a FLIRT in Luzerne-Sursee.
The P32AC-DM arose out of the century-old New York City ordinance prohibiting steam and diesel locomotives within city limits. It was built for...
Cathcart is not set in 2024! As should be obvious from the 314s
Which is why the TEE originally was specified as a diesel system.
I suspect that may be wheelslip
Gotta admit, that capture is hard to tell from a real photo. (Floating marker excepted, of course)
Agree; freight also because you won't be distracted by station stops and having to meet a schedule.
BRO is too early for that model of cab car (Bimdzf 271)
I am very confused. The sale page says that LIRR is 70% off, but on the actual store page it's full price
Because it's a diesel. When GWE first released, the 166 was absurdly quick, accelerating like an AC electric. After much protest (and one user's...
Which of those IRL are DB and which private TOCs?
Did you pass over an AWS bolus? IOW, was there a signal 200 yards on?
I think he means, taking on the role of the engineer. Who IRL does not shovel coal.
In defense of Cane Creek: it's slow freight. If you don't like that sort of thing then it's the sort of thing that you won't like. However, the...
It will help if the 218 subs in on freight (and the passenger runs that go to unelectried branches). But that would mean adding an Orientrot...
Automatic announcements? At least on the 380, they're about as manual as you can get
Armstrong Powerhouse merely sells sound files. They do NOT do the audio mixes or implementation, and have made it clear they have zero interest in...
484 uses LU DC, not compatible. Not sure why the diesel won't run.
I do think route variety makes all the difference. MML, for example, is basically a triple-ended Y-shaped route; so also is Blackpool. Now, the...
Because as soon as the ATC kicks in, the game registers "speeding" until you get down to the prescribed speed. It shouldn't but it does. It should...
Seriously.
Keep getting docked for not having them on because there appears to be no way to turn on the DSD so that the game recognizes it, even though the...
Exactly. And that is the thinking of passenger rail companies. However, the calculus is different for freight railroads, because they don't sell...
Back when I wrote that, the 166 physics were off and it accelerated like an EMU, easily hitting 90. Not really an issue since it was revised.

I don't think that it's upset, simply that Caledonia finds it more profitable to self-publish and not have to pay DTG a cut

München is certainly a mother. Once in TSC I tried to reproduce all of the RL traffic just between the HBf and Laim for one single hour- just 60...
They are supposed to be monthly, first week of the month, but this May there were key people on holiday so it was postponed a week.
TSC isn't running a timetable. The reason all trains in TSW TT mode, aside from permanently static ones, are never cold and dark is because the...
IOW22 BR 484 Simply will not take power. In fact it spawns cold and dead; if you reset the physics then you get control desk power, but nothing...

Railroader is a great operational game, but the train physics are highly simplistic. If you want serious realism, in steam trains, then look at...
Railroader is completely fictional. No access required
Sorry, but unlike JFK, DTG isn't spending tax money. In business, "hard" equals "costly."
