One compromise might be to put some of the freight via Weedon rather than Northampton, particularly during the less busy periods. But this issue...
I get the impression GBR are working very closely with DTG, given the appearance of TSW in a promotional camapaign. In addition my local MP, Heidi...
Newcastle to Edinburgh is the logical choice for the most scenic section of the ECML, well north of Chathill anyway, but is too long for an all in...
Thanks for that!
I think you will find that is the Railscene video which has been ripped and uploaded to YT. It's not the only one from the collection so assume...
I wonder if this route will get a full freight timetable? Of course not including Northampton misses out Daventry Freight Terminal and not to...
My only regret is that we will have half the WCML sections in TSWset in the mid eighties, half in current day, Carlisle to Glasgow probably never...
Also IIRC, the 108’s allocated to the Cumbrian Coast had bars fitted to the door droplight frames, to avoid passengers sticking their head out and...
We don't even know whether DTG have a working relationship with VIA let alone a licence. The only Canadian representation in TSW is from Canadian...
Wetherspoons (no "a") is the parent company and branding but each pub has an individual traditional name, often linked to the original building's...
Oh yes, quite true. So it's entirely possible Rivet have already been tasked with working on the 2026 big summer aka TSW7 UK route!
Ten handpumps on the bar but probably all connected to the Doom Bar barrel, despite what the labels might say! (Only joking). Still at £2.10 a...
I think I got all three completed now, but the thing was going bananas yesterday evening, each time I went in and out then back to the main menu...
It’s a slightly earlier era but certainly in 1973, if the SIAM Traffic Control simulation is to be believed, Class 40’s and double headed Class...
No… :)
Oh I don’t disagree with that which is what many of us have been saying for a while, only to get the response from the usual suspect(s) that route...
IIRC didn’t they have fabric style seats or in 1974 would they still have been plastic/vinyl? In any event, I think this DLC will need a “Sore...
In theory having a more frequent service increases capacity but that doesn’t really apply to the West Of England route and as soon as there’s...
The only reason they are so popular now is that they are much nicer trains than the modern IET’s etc. that replaced them. Back in the bashing days...
As noted above the WCML is all 3P work and I assume DTG only have so much creative control over what they decide to do. There doesn’t appear to...
A Dusty Bin would have been great as, having travelled on these and experienced the AP one in TSC the 321’s were one of the last AC EMU types to...
Though we know Cardiff was outsourced to Rivet, who it seems have nothing under their own banner on the Roadmap. Does this mean DTG and Rivet are...
As I mentioned in the Q&A, is it just me or is this pretty much all 3P stuff, nothing from DTG themselves?
My wife has ordered us a roll up jigsaw mat for Christmas (1000 pieces max) so my thoughts turned to getting something railway themed to do. Found...
Definitely agree the great northern city of Newcastle should be in the game! Personally I would go for a pre Metro 1970’s suburban when both the...
Excellent! I will have to replace my upholstered computer chair with a hard dining chair to emulate the experience! :)
Given that most if not all of the reveals seem to be content from 3P’s what are DTG proposing to bring to the table themselves next year? Or have...
Did I pick up in the thread we are getting some UIC corridor Am232/Bm232 or similar stock with this? Excellent if true and at last we can...
It's possible their next one could be Lancaster to Whitehaven via Barrow to link things up, but that would be even more work than coming to...
I was wondering the same and looking at my Steam Wallet. As regards JT well they haven't even given a date for Preston to Crewe yet so I'm...
True but AFAIK it's all units. We saw on WCL and to some extent SoS what can happen when late running occurs and there is no flag on the schedule...
I have two cabride DVD's/Blu-rays of the route - the original Railscene one with Jeremy English (RIP) babbling away and the more recent one...
I'm sure I recall someone from JT saying Motherwell into Glasgow would be a complete nightmare to do. The timetable would be quite fragile to,...
That is true. Some of their early TSC (as in RS and Railworks) stuff (like Edinburgh to Dundee), left a great deal to be desired, relying on...
On a different note, without firing it up, am I right in thinking that all or part of this route is in Zusi 3? I'm convincing myself looking at...
My only slightly less positive thought about this one, is could it herald the first £39.99/Euro 44.99/US$49.99 price level add on DLC?
Thinking that too. While thrashing alongside the M1 then Kilsby Tunnel is going to be fun, bearing in mind the focus of this route is still the...
Good but as I said in the reveals thread I feel they have missed a trick by stopping short at Whitehaven. The eponymous "Coast" section is really...
Some excellent stuff there and a far better final set of reveals than last years TTTE. German steam - Day One. Trent Valey - Day One. Cumbrian...
Day. One.
Indeed. There are still plentiful ideas for steam traction in the Suggestion forum, both UK and elsewhere. Just that it comes up against DTG’s...
Not strictly true as on the monthly mastery accumulated distance from a run done over several sessions has always counted so, say, 90 miles from a...
Purely personally I wouldn't have thought it was that important, something nice to have rather than essential. In a single player game where all...
You could also have engineering trains going in and out of T3 possessions, albeit DTG would need to scrutinise the Rule Book more closely than...
Have to respectfully disagree with most of the what zsolt_93 had to say above. I just watched two of TSS clips while on the exercise bike - the...
Yes that would be a nice way to kick off one of the 2026 Monthly Mastery mileage challenges. You could at a push drop in WCMLS too, then just...
Distance driven is playing up on the US Tier 2. Just finished an 18 mile run on Boston Sprinter which only clocked up about 5 miles. So it does...
Medway and Preston to Crewe the only two I've really got my eye on. Tadami, well yes if it comes out and the Czech route but as I think I said...
Separate names with a comma.
