There's two major licensing issues with the big North American railroads, neither of which I imagine would heavily effect the route. 1: BNSF not...

I think the bigger problem's the limited market, any extension is gonna need the base route to work. Why put in all the effort to basically make a...

I'd question how well it would be able to handle the timetable on the route, it's difficult enough with the Class 40 and it's considerably more...

There was nothing unfriendly about it, I'd agree with a term like unprofessional certainly, but not unfriendly. I also don't really have any...

The F-Units were for freight service, so they got the Black Widow scheme, the E-Units were for passenger service, so they got the Daylight scheme....

The BNSF situation's simple, they don't own the BNSF trademark outside the US, therefor they can't license it outside of it as they have no right...

The best hope for the Bloody units would be to see them included with some new SP route, similar to how Montana Hi-Line effectively rereleased a...

Is there even any historic routes for Germany?, From what I've seen it seems the earliest routes are set is the 90s, doesn't seem to be anything...

I do agree that TSW & Classic are better giving you access to everything off the bat, but I wouldn't say they don't belong in sims period. They...

I agree, for example on a number of German routes I know there's problems with the PZB and other safety systems since the beginning. Add on top of...

A bunch of them didn't run on the line, specifically the WSR engines never served in the area, I'm pretty certain the same applies to the Class...

Sure it's a reasonable enough comparison, but it's not as strong a case as routes like Isle of Wight, Great Western Main Line, or NEC New Haven....

That's actually one of the worst examples to bring up, yes there's a Gilroy version, but keep in mind that it's a extended version of the OG...

Even routes like Marias Pass & the Settle-Carlisle line are examples of this, they're basically modern (Well, for the time) versions of MSTS...

I would say it's also obvious that they have licensing for many fallen flags, the big four US railroads all have some sort of fallen flag content....

Personally with how many routes go in and around New York as is I'd rather see them stay away from there for a good while. I'd rather see more...

Most titles that are released below 60 aren't AAA titles, the vast majority of titles below that mark are either smaller, or older titles. Also...

I'd rather see it stick in the 40's & 50's, not a era that's been heavily explored in TS. Also you can put 70's EMD engines in many other routes,...

With something like a model train that's your property, as your mods are basically for private use they aren't going to care. Same thing with with...

If Trainz, MSTS, and older TS Classic content is considered a sim than TSW is very clearly a sim. I'd argue that it's miles better than old Kuju...

So is things like "This loco DLC requires X route add on to use" or the high price addons are, both certainly deter new users, however I don't...

Some of those aren't great examples, for Tees Valley while does have two negative reviews neither are really worth taking seriously. One's someone...

You could certainly do that, but you gotta factor you're gonna have one of two major problems depending on what you do. 1: It needs a base DLC to...

Sorry about that, was referring to the F40PH, got it confused as it was criticized it for lacking the engine room, so thought that was what you...

Another important thing is to make sure it's in 64 bit, the key command doesn't work in 32 bit.

If you're someone new would you assume it's just talking about things like doors, or would you assume it's talking about more important things...

I really don't see how the rephrase is any better, I think a regular everyday person would still assume the exact same thing from it. And it loses...

Köln-Aachen ain't any better in that respect, there's already quite a few with Main-Spessart Bahn, Rhein-Ruhr Osten will add another set of layers...

Another thing example of the weather system is that if you set it to rain and the weather gets cold enough it turns to snow. One example I found...

Try clicking on the left side of it, I find it works every time, if not than just use Shift R.

I'd note that in the same list Cajon Pass is noticeably cheaper than IoW though, and that's a pretty massive route. Or even in modern day IoW's...

The answer's quite simple, they use a template, or they use another product's description as a base when writing descriptions, you can see that...

Or Rivet and/or Dovetail didn't do enough optimization and testing for console.

My assumption was that the BR 101 was gonna be a freight loco to serve as a TSW2 native alternative to the old MSB freight locos. To be curious...

I don't see how the placement of a single switch ruins it, clearly it doesn't ruin it for most people considering that Peninsula Corridor's one...

If Dovetail had been more constant in the past I would be more willing to agree, but they have pretty much always been hit or miss. For example...

Technically any breach of IP free or not still infringes on copyright, theoretically a rail company could be super strict and go after these...

I gotta be honest I don't get what you're talking about, lighting's miles better than TS, no question about it in my mind. I have no clue what...

If I remember correctly the scenarios in the original release are not timed, so you shouldn't need to rush though the manual at least.

Interesting to see someone new enter the train sim market, way too little info for me to guess how it will turn out, but hope it work out well for...

For Marias Pass they did, and indeed still do for the US, but BNSF don't have the trademark internationally, so now only allow use of their...

Why would it need BNSF in this case? You can do the BNSF section without having them involved as Pacific Surfliner shows. Just use UP stock for...

Because they're the most popular and the people involved have more experience with those areas. I know in particular simulators are very popular...

If that was the case they wouldn't have NEC for the original TSW, or routes like Hudson or Miami for TS Classic available. There's zero reason at...

I'm pretty sure the route's still based in the same period, maybe slightly later because of the hump yard usage, but either way the SD40-2's make...

One general Amtrak recommendation that annoys me is then people recommend making P42s for a route where they only run once or twice a day. I get...

I think this would be a great route to consider whenever they bring in steam locomotives as Duluth to Proctor's a very short but very notable bit...

One that I've always found fascinating, and I think would've worked great for TSW, is Toronto's Railway Lands with how huge and intricate that...

Honestly don't like the idea of adding more engines for this route, at least on paper. For the most part they've largely just been sliding NA...
