It’s not more detail that I was aiming at. I was talking more about a situation like this: The V90s are ubiquotous on German rail. What if someone...
I share most of your concerns. I only have a potato Laptop, so no TSC for me, but I did dabble quite a bit in MSTS/OR and getting any...
No offence, JD, but why would it need to be unstickied in General Discussion anyway? Is having one thread celebrating TSW’s timetables truly that...
I started off with the old manuals for RSN and MSB back in the day for the basics. Drove a whole lot just with that background until I was...
While I don’t expect it to be the case going forward for now, it’s amazing to see manufacturers (and their IP) getting into TSW as well.
:love:
Something that seems inaccurate but actually turns out true is way better than something that seems true but turns out inaccurate. Keep doing what...
You know what, I checked a picture I took and you’re totally right. Never noticed that before. [ATTACH]
This doesn’t sound like a bug to me. It sounds like you’re using the “release” notch of the brakes (and/or the overcharge button). Stay far away...
“Oh, I get it. So I need to buy the UP route then?” “No. You actually need to buy the totally unrelated BNSF route first and then the UP route.”
The OHL is just terrible. It looks incredibly unrealistic and is simply a downgrade from previous iterations. If it won’t be further improved, it...
Same happened to me. If it wasn’t for that weird texture on Scotsman’s buffers, I’d have a really hard time figuring out whether it’s real or not :D
All of the screenshots are good but this one is just incredible.
Take another look at the gantry. Do you notice the height difference between the left and right signals? That’s your indication that these are not...
It’s actually surprisingly difficult to find any old pictures with the whistle in it :)

No problem, glad I could help :D
There’s a long and a short explanation. Short: It’s a repeater of the main signal for leaving the platform. If the diagonal light is on, the main...
Yes, pretty, isn’t she? Seriously, I like no-nonsense industrial design and that’s exactly what the Shays are :)
It is a simulator you bought though. There are other options out there if realism isn’t what you’re looking for. Besides, apart from making TSW...
It’s the opposite for me - I’d love a steam timetable for NTP :)
Thanks for confirming, JD. Disappointing, but expected. I think I'll follow the advice of cwf.green and make more noise about it in the future :)...
Not much I can add that hasn’t been said already, but both are good and hold up. One thing in particular that always strikes me about both routes...
Only the alerter.
Some portion of the Milwaukee Road's electric routes. Probably never going to happen but I'd dearly love getting my hands on these old electric...
Quite often. As Calidore266 said, it’s not as often as Steam, but still often. A good chunk of my collection was bought in sales. If memory...
Depends on the loco. On older locos, you can theoretically do quite a bit on the move. On newer locos (especially 3-phase AC onwards), if it’s...
I see your point, but working compromises are already in the game. The perhaps “worst” examples are the 143 and 155, where the engine room is just...
Just gonna leave this here:...
The optimist in me hopes for a freight loco for LFR :) They? RSN is a route - Ruhr Sieg Nord.
What heresy is this? No no no, a 189 is not a multi-system 185. A 185 (and 186) is a multi-system version of a 185. A 189 is a completely...
Yes. If there’s a 1000Hz monitoring, you need to get below 55km/h, even if it was triggered by a speed restriction to 70km/h for example.
[ATTACH] 8 services Don’t know how they mesh with Metrolink services.
Just for anyone interested: We don’t have cantons in Germany - that’s a Swiss thing. We have Bundesländer (federal states). No harm done, just...
I hope they modelled it, but I’m sure they didn’t. Even then they’re slim. Quite a few of the switches on the back panel of TSW’s 185 are...
I’ve driven both 152s and 189s in real life (as well as 185s and 186s) and I can confirm that they’re both leaps and bounds ahead of TRAXXs. Much...
Sorry, I noticed that I didn’t quite quote you correctly. I was specifically referring to the building in LA thay you take issue with. Could you...
Thanks for this amazing run. It was worth it for the AI alone :) [SPOILER]
The route’s looking better than I expected. Initially, this was the route I was least excited for but it looks and sounds really well crafted....
While I haven’t formally joined your challenges, I was tempted to try my hand today. I know next to nothing about operating kettles but the...
I’m very sorry to hear about your loss. I’m wishing you all the best. Here’s to all the happy memories with our mums!
Maik did the sounds for the Talent 1. He said he simply wasn’t aware that the 377 sounds similar. That being said, I wouldn’t be surprised if...
If ÖBB or other EVUs rent them out, it might be theoretically doable, but renting one would be extremely expensive. You’d probably also need to...
Funny anecdote. I avoid the save game like the plague. Then one time, I tried to do something similar to what you describe on Cajon. The one time...
Exactly. The same is true for a lot of modern 3-phase AC locos. The 185s we have in game are simplified in that regard to. There are various...
Me too. Fond memories of the Dash 9 in BNSF H2 scheme in MSTS.
I feel a bit embarrassed at this point seeing how it’s the third time (maybe third time’s the charm?) - what’s your source on this?
Oh please, count me in. A Br 151 loco DLC with a proper new timetable including new physics for freight cars would be fantastic. Mhm :love:
On a related note, I’ve had an interesting conversation with a train driver about something similar on the Br 141. Apparently, the driver’s brake...
Oh, yes. Recently, I’ve been thinking about re-installing TSW2020 just for a stint on the GP38-2 on the original NEC. The switching and local...
