Probably. I live near a busy section of track with frequent commuter, freight and some Amtrak traffic. None of it is fenced. This is typical of US...

Can you explain your reasons for this view? You may not like US content but why would you want to deprive Americans of their favorite routes and...

Tough choices but I'll go with the GP9rm, UK Class 101 and Acela as favorites. Least favorite would be any emu with a joystick and/or a pitifully...

This absolutely, plus it works both ways. She can't hear the trains and I have the perfect excuse to ( selectively) not hear her. :D Of course...

For passenger trains: keeping to the timetable. For freight trains: Maintaining speed limits on different grades. But my greatest challenges are...

Works on all TSW4 locos for me, though there's still some quirkiness with the throttle and brake controls here and there. There are some German...

The worst thing about Cathcart is the night lighting ( or lack of it ). If that was fixed I'd start playing it again. Actually that could be said...

Vern, I think you have to realise that Angelenos do not embrace public transportation even to the limited extent that they do in cities such as...

In these current times when a cart load of groceries needs a second mortgage, $40 is quite a bit of moolah. Nothing announced so far for TSW in...

You've re- created the kitchen junk drawer, a Pandora's Box of wildly differing content: some really decent discussions, some silly cat-fighting,...

Well, I go back to a comment I made a while back viz: If you put yourself out there as a railroad simulator, you should attempt to cover all...

I know the conventional wisdom is that DTG are masters of their own fate, but I have to wonder about Focus' influence on the decision to end 1st...

Whatever the merits of the route, this looks pretty much like every other German electric red box I already own. What's with the puny headlights?

I used to have the cat sitting with me, but she had a habit of walking on the keyboard and " chasing " the mouse, so now banned from the room.

High- ish end PC, 32inch 4k monitor, Raildriver with mouse and keyboard. Can't imagine playing in any kind of " reclining " position, though it...

Yes, very worrying and echoes my own conclusions. I'm not hearing any DTG spokesperson contradicting this point of view, though actions would...

I agree. We seem to be facing a future of shortish, mostly electric commuter routes with very limited rolling stock on both sides of the pond....

Well, I defer to your better familiarity with the line. I'll be interested to see how a busy timetable is integrated into a mostly single track...

Well, let's not spin-doctor this dlc. It's a well-modeled A-B route with one commuter train, almost no AI, no depots and a ghostly main line...

Absolutely this. Oh for some daring, imaginative thinking outside the narrow box of shortish, simple commuter runs with minimal or re- purposed...

Yes, I recently acquired the E-G ( at <half price of course) and, while the route itself, if rather bland, is fairly well- modeled, the 385 is a...

Well, in the UK at least, you're not going to see any freight routes any time soon. Reading the forum over the last few years, it's clear that the...

And yet it might turn out to be marginally more interesting than San Bernadino, which is 58 largely single track miles with little promise of AI...

The question as to why PTC is not modeled in TSW was asked and answered when AVL was released:

Yes, this poster delights in answering Q&A meant for the roadmap stream. Does it frequently whether he has a coherent answer or not. On point, I...

Although I'm always willing to be pleasantly surprised, already it's looking like yet another " short end of the stick " year for US players in...

I imagine this route and AVL were planned and maybe developed in tandem following the trip to Southern Cal last year. I'm pretty sure they didn't...

As I've posted elsewhere, not too excited. I'm thinking lots of re-used assets and not just the F125. I can see why they've done it, using the...

Can't say I'm too excited about the San Bernadino line. Another Southern Cal commuter route featuring the same F125 which didn't impress me that...

Relieved that it's not one of those high speed Japanese bullet train routes. More like Forest Rail.

I found those " list " questions impossible to fully complete. I numbered the first 3 or 4 and ignored the rest because most of the other choices...

Nothing wrong with NEC per se, just that there are good and bad parts of it. For instance continuing down to Philly would be OK as would north to...

I had something like this the other day after buying Blackpool in the sale. Fortunately I was able to pause the download and then delete it before...

Agree completely. Couldn't have said it better. Night lighting is unlikely to improve as long as DTG doesn't see it as a priority.

I don't think TSW4 has gotten much right, but the earliest iterations of the game did. I can think of Sand Patch Grade, TVL, NTP and the GP9rm...

That's odd. I'll check it out.

While I'm a bit tired of the NewYork/NEC paradigm, I'll make an exception for a revamped LIRR because it would be virtually a new route, given the...

Agreed. I fail to see the attraction, unless you just like traveling fast in life generally.

TSW does not do well modeling large cities, especially in the US and UK as well as, I guess, Germany. I'm thinking of New York, Birmingham,...

You can access it from the Announcements forum.

Thanks, but I don't need reminding that everybody's opinion, including yours and mine, is equally valid. Perhaps re- read the first line of my post?

Well my view may not be popular, but I believe that TSW should step away from London and the South into the other areas of the UK including...

But the units, lbs/square inch, would indicate a pressure gauge of some kind.

Sorry, but once again you misunderstood the issue. But thanks anyway for your responses. Have a nice evening.

Yes, not to belabor it, but the strange thing was that Steam wanted to re- download my entire TSW3 library which didn't even include E-G! :D

And that's perfectly fine. Many of us like one iteration of TSW or another. I think TSW2 got it about right.....eventually. I think the point...

As long as DTG believe they can sell their projected quantity of the usual 3 routes as a series of packages, they will add a couple of...

That's probably right. When Steam began reinstalling TSW3 I simply paused it and then uninstalled it and Steam gave up. And the route plays fine...
