slow but interesting route... I have fond memories of those few trips on South Shore Line a loooong time ago, so revisiting Chicago in this game...
now, a route that long with nice speed variety, with 101, daaamn :)
I am looking forward to reading/studying the manual and learning some more shenanigans for preparation and driving of the loco, especially the...
havent played Semmeringbahn for some time, might do a passenger run when I get home from work... if yeah, will let y know :)
dont really bother with 218 passenger services on Koln Aachen, as they are meant more for faster locos, and you have basically no chance keeping...
so nothing really happens if I just release in the cab I drive, but for the sake of realism, I could go into the cab car and release it also...
so do I need to check that or is it already set correctly in the game?
[ATTACH] this cab car is gorgeous, they use it on new 2nd gen Railjets, and I believe they also now use Vectron 230, which is (for now) exclusive...
also, we need more passenger use for Vectron :)
there are 4124s with MIREL? wow, now that brings 4124 in as a possibility for Marchegger Ostbahn IRL, even to Devinska Nova Ves :)
just remembered one thing... some time ago I created an approximate recreation of the CityJet livery on 4024, and called it MiriJet... it should...
oh wow, nice :) so I just release the direct brake in the loco/cab car aka the side I am currently driving, understood :)
also, I am sure that many fans of German/Austrian content/locos would love Railjet, 1144 Herbert, CityShuttle shenanigans etc., but we are not...
not really overused IMO... it is the only Austrian EMU they got atm... along with Desiro ML, which is not yet in the game, those two are literally...
even on German/Austrian routes, first there is a sign announcing neutral section and you only have to open MCB at the next sign, but I tend to do...
in other words, we dont have to "teleport" to the other cab to check on the direct/loco brake there... releasing it in the front cab we drive in...
so thats the reason it "skips" certain notches on the train brake?
finally, a clear answer, thank you... so indeed the only thing you need to do when you see the black sign announcing a NS is to put throttle to...
they must have changed sth, or shut off the functionality on this route altogether... driven it yesterday and there was literally no effect, no...
[MEDIA] in my thread you said it looked like HUD issue, but I am not sure, thats why I did this short video... now as I watched it again, looks...
well, before it used to at least momentarily cut power, and it would show in the HUD/miniHUD somehow, but now you dont lose any power, so I guess...
just driven the section, and looks like they turned off that functionality... literally nothing happened... no traction lock, no brake...
just driving the EDN, direction to Edinburgh, and it seems they have turned off that neutral section... as I went over it, literally nothing happened
didnt know about this, will definitely be checking this from now on :)
a bit late to the party, I guess, but well :D ... I have bought this route at launch and played it a lot, then played it from time to time, tried...
oh ok, I just tested stuff in TC... and you were absolutely right... I probably forgot to put the reverser to OFF first, so even if the switch...
I guess I am starting to understand, but... when I tried stuff in Training center, I put it to Off... and... it just behaved as if it was on fast...
ok so I think I got this: 1) first there is this black sign, I guess it shows the neutral section incoming, then, some distance afterwards......
so in-game in English it is just labelled "off"? ... and "hauling" means "shunting"? or what is it exactly... cos tried it in Training center and...
so they arent on the left of each track, like in Germany :/ aw :D ... so here all I have to do is just throttle off (tho I guess in-game even if...
would be funny if some train constructor/developer took the platform of 218 and added a tilting system :D that would be downright wild and almost...
you mean GNT? I believe GNT is a real-life system, the part that DTG "invented" was the fact that it showed you info on the screen that would IRL...
612 has actually two systems... GST allows for 2° of tilt... once you turn on the train, and switch on GST, you can see a self-test, tilting the...
I believe there it just locks the traction until you put throttle to off/zero... at least thats how I remember it, havent played it for some time
on ECML I saw a couple of those signs in black colour when driving the 158, but they were only on the leftmost posts for some reason... those...
by "power is off" you mean throttle is off, right? so 801 doesnt have a button/switch like German locos do that is labelled as "main circuit...
do you mean like there is fast gear position, slow gear position, and a third one in between (in/game labelled as "off") for shunting or sth? or...
but they apparently made the track with slight tilt so the trains would naturally lean into the curve and thus be stable at higher speeds, right :) ?
ah, Meissen <3 loving branches and such, when you have actual pathing variety on a route :)
anyways, how do those signs/magnets look? and again, does 801 in-game have a MCB or just panto button?
some of modern UK tilting EMUs would be nice... which reminds me, until yesterday I had thought that 801 Azuma on ECML is a tilting train, but...
RailJet-s, where are you :D ?
can you believe it? ever since the launch of ECML I was under the impression I am driving a tilting train... just yesterday I thought to look for...
