Something parallel happened as well with pianos, and orchestras; but both of those are easier to change and change back* than organs- those tend...
I would argue that nonfunctional signal and safety systems come very close to "broken. " Certainly for me, since playing without them is, for me,...
The 101 may be the best loco in the game to date. Unless the 612 has displaced it.
How far out are your braking points? (The rule I have used up until now, on German routes, is to target 80km/h at one km out, from where, assuming...
No, not at all. It is a purely positional system; color is irrelevant. In that system, yellow doesn't mean "Caution," it doesn't mean anything....
I would have to say that the biggest wrecker of Baroque and earlier organs has not been wars, but 19th-century notions of "progress" and the...
While that's true, it's awfully hard to turn that into a number that fits in a spreadsheet. Whereas anticipated revenue from a new DLC can be.
They use the old PRR positional system, where signals are read sort of like clock dials. Colors aren't needed.
Well, caved and got LGV anyway. Not one I was really interested in, but the price was right. And it does have new signals to learn.
Roughly speaking, what level of brake force is needed to adhere to the LGM braking curve a) in manual, and b) in addition to speed control? So...
Then fix the AC4400 (although actually, the SD40 is pretty good as-is). Ideally, give us a CSX SD70 reskin (not holding my breath) Either...
I should probably add that when foreign traction does make an appearance, well over half the time it's Norfolk Southern, unsurprisingly.
It's not a bug: you have the freedom of the switchyard - all manual - but you can't venture past the exit signal onto the mainline. Secondarily,...
So long as Sand Patch is constrained to 50-car trains max, no need for it. Esp since the AC4400 is just as powerful.
It's a matter of proportion. Do we see UP, BNSF, NS locos on CSX? Of course- sometimes. But TSW had them popping up on practically every train,...
Best of all would be to give the user a checkbox interface to include or exclude as he sees fit.
The preview will if pattern is followed be streamed on the Tuesday before the Thursday release, and it isn't releasing this Thursday.
Actually, they do exist. DBFV has a loco shortage, and they do hire them from MRCE.
If you like urban commuter, Cathcart is great. Very well done in all regards (except the night lighting, which is abysmal). LGV if you like to go...
Unfortunately, everything marked down in this Steam sale I either already have or don't want

A race with the BR 182 would be more germane, since they're (more or less) the same engine, Siemens Eurosprinter.
I got an unspecified update yesterday. Core, not to any route.
The thing is, while 187 sound was precluded due to the Black Death, Skyhook did not have to re-use the universally-excoriated sounds from the...
The train; the MP15 drove just fine if I uncoupled it. But it turns out this was Operator Error- like a dummy, I had the brakes set to "Freight",...
There is no indication that the rate of DLC release has changed any from the start of TSW: 6 routes per year, plus a couple of locos or "gameplay...
For the first time in a long time, not counting the holiday stand down, we have no new DLC to be released next week (unless the gameplay pack...
I could explain it to you, but it would take too long.
IIRC, LIRR used to be Pennsylvania RR, whereas Harlem used to be New York Central, so the latter's signaling should be more like CSX's.
Whereas AI trains run right to the line limit (on some routes, ignoring Vmax and temporary (e.g. PZB) restrictions- and then wait to the last...
As Joe demonstrated with Brighton.
DBAG is the legal successor-in-interest to both DBB and DR, including the former companies' intellectual property. Ergo the Ozeanblau DBB 363....
This has never happened to me before. Scenario "There and Back Again." Everything starts off jolly, but as soon as I pass about 25 mph or so...
And finished: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] Unfortunately there's a point where lettering gets so small it pixelates into illegibility. The best one...
True enough; but then, the only difference between the two was the gearing. Ergo combine the Class 09 3D model with the Class 08 physics and...
The US was rather less old-fashioned in the '70s. Every loco had a radio, and CRR had used centralized signal control since the 1950s. In...
I think a key upgrade to LD, or the livery system overall, is to provide a user interface with checkboxes or sliders where you can say "I want...
And here it is, you knew it was coming.... [IMG] HMA, BR 423
IIRC, in Germany you're never, ever allowed to use the horn, unless there's an obstruction on the track.
I think it's unlikely that we will see timetable overhauls on any older routes ("older" meaning pre-Brighton- everything before that used AI...
In fairness, DTG's 146.2 marking are copied from the 185.2
In that context it's worth noting they told SHG to go back and try again with Horseshoe
I think that points to a nub of the problem: The Preservation Crew, having completed its original remit to port TSW2020 content to TSW2, was...
I get the feeling that HSC was sent back to SHG with lots and lots of red pencil.
Is this actually fun? Or am I just OCD? [ATTACH]
