Hmmmm- How many millennials and Gen-Zers grew up with Thomas the Tank Engine?
Exactly. I don't understand the assumption that people will only buy what they're familiar with; what I would love to see is old pre-Amtrak US...
While that's a nice wishlist, this is just a gameplay pack- in other words, DTG are not going to develop new locos at this price point. We get new...
1970s design sense was.... interesting
It also inadvertently killed the BR 103s; they weren't designed to pull such heavy trains so often and they wore out prematurely.
Thank you mkraehe#6051 and Lamplight and AmityBlight for correcting my misapprehension. I had thought mistakenly that all IC coaches were...
All right, I stand corrected. But were they ever painted Ozeanblau? I thought they were all exclusively for IC/TEE trains
There are no roof ridges, characteristic of the UIC Z type. And at least to my eye the windows are spaced too closely together.
I don't believe the ones in the photo are Z-Wagen; the windows and roof are wrong. Also, if I'm not mistaken, all of the Bpmz were purchased for...
Although after his hair went silver he did look a little like von Karajan!
IIRC, in 1989 cab cars were only used on S-bahnen and similar commuter trains, where quick turnaroundfs were important. Cab cars on long distance...
Confused by this: There was never a blue TEE livery,* nor did UIC Z-coaches ever appear in blue (originally crimson/beige, then white and...
Leonard Bernstein ist kein Deutscher
TSW5 does have a vastly improved 2D map, with added fast travel
I am MAJORLY stoked for Mittenwald! Especially the ton of new/reworked rolling stock, including n-Wagen with their original interiors and (non)...
We already have them (heavily refurbished) in the FLIX train. But yes, I would love to have them in their original form, in blue/ivory or even...
Yes and yes- not only that, but given new LU and (unbranded) HX liveries
Riesa-Dresden in probably the best all-around German route in TSW; all it lacks is high-speed LZB running. (Frankfurt-Fulda might take the crown,...
He did some lovely mods, including a very good Clinchfield enhancement pack, and a redone Gatwick with new (realistic) planes for BML. But, yes,...
I suspect most 8th-gen owners already understand that they can't run, or can barely run, 2024 games. Heck, most publishers have ditched 8th-gen...
It's a six-dollar gameplay pack. You don't get a new loco for that price
Also, this means that the "engineering" programming is already done for the F59PHI (streamlined body like an MP36 on the same chassis), which is a...
I mentioned that too. Surely there's a clever programmer out there DTG could hire to un-bollix the situation. Conceptually Simugraph can handle...
Agreed; Railroader already does that quite well. Besides, the whole DTG edge (real life branding and routes) would go by the wayside.
Very pleasant, since it's a much higher performance train than the poky little 642. The 612 subbed in for ICE-TDs for a while, whereas the 642 is...
Supposedly the BF sale was to run through Dec 6, but it's already over. I had been cosidering getting West Cornwall cheap, just for layers on...
I wonder- have you tried approaching Wabtech and/or Progress Rail directly? They always have a number of locos on hand, whether in for overhaul,...
This s why I suggested vintage. Yes, I know you can't do sound surveys, but you can do intensive photo/video surveys on museum trains. You...
Radeon RX 580 with 4GB. As I said, antique
The original holdup was the Channel Tunnel Authority, whose safety regulations back then didn't permit trains of less than 400m length. By the...
I suspect that the issue is not licensing, which costs the RR no effort and may make them a few pennies, but rather that because of concerns over...
Not so long in miles, but plenty long in minutes (a full all-stops run is about an hour and a half). 30km/h doesn't cover much ground in a hurry.
Well, I have, not because DX12 is inherently unstable, but because with TSW5, unlike previous iterations, DX12 overloads my antique GPU's very...
I suppose, at least hypothetically, there might be a potential 3rd party partner in the US
Gotta admit, I just got Bernina on sale and it's pretty effin' spectacular. Not just the Alpine scenery (night and day compared to Arosa), but...
This is true; the problem with .pak mod liveries is that they 100% replace every loco on the route.
I’m right here
Available on CC for free. Good and dirty, like a CRR loco ought to be
"Class" anything can't be used, because the Naughty Words algorithm detects the alternate word for "donkey" in it.
Now, if there could be some lighting in those switching areas...... Having real headlights will be great, but that still leaves reversing moves...
That's exactly it- in cold weather, the windows fog up. So those climate controls are for more than just flavor now!
It doesn't at all. What does make sense is buying a secondhand PS5 for considerably less than that so I can play any number of Sony exclusives...
Yep. That's exactly what happens.
Well, in terms of length the ratio is about 3:2, so it's not an "almost all" route like Vorarlberg or Rosenheim; and although the new loco will be...
Mittenwaldbahn lies entirely in Bayern and Tirol, not BaWu. The scribble-out "correction" in the teaser references the BaWu clue left in...
Another vote for Frankfurt-Fulda. Although if you have TSW5 I assume you already have it. Best looking German route is Niddertalbahn, but if...
That was never as problem with plasmas, but the pinheads at the EU banned them. (I kept my 720p plasma running for years, because it looked better...
That's it
East Anglia has the dullest landscape in Britain
Riesa Dresden is a great route. Hard to top it for variety and traffic. For a change of pace, you might want to get the BR 218 loco- old-school...
