The new route is going to have services missing as well, or certainly will out of the box, unless the knock up something completely unrealistic,...
Yes I miss the freeroam scenarios we had in TSC. They were easy to set up yourself too. There are several routes, or parts of routes where you...
Exactly would people really prefer to see the HST and the SE diverted services which are very uncommon rather than a train which is a feature of...
I can handle bridges not being 100% accurate as long as they are a good representation but having a straight piece of track where a curve should...
The interior of the 158 does look a bit low quality I must admit and too bright and shiny. The idling sounds would be an annoyance to me. I will...
I can't understand why such fundamental railway sounds, like going over bridges and tunnel and bridge reverb are not present when they are in...
I think 80 to 100 miles is probably ideal for a longer route. I would be happy to see even longer personally, but we are a long way from that....
Okay thanks I will try it. I think so far I have saved when I am still in the cab from where I had been driving before switching ends.
Well I would expect DOO routes to work as intended. I don't play many modern routes in TSC. Most of the routes I play feature steam or diesel or...
Well on DOO routes you probably do have to, the only DOO trains I have driven are AP ones which do have the facility to close them yourselves....
Yes on DTG routes you don't have to close the doors yourself. It happens at the end of passenger loading. I meant advanced in terms of it being...
It sounds plausible and I would love to see it happen so you might be right. Certainly Euston to BNS/Wolverhampton would always be a favourite of...
I don't mind the timed stops, but surely they could code it so that when the bar has finished going round it tells the sim to close the doors and...
That would be a nice choice of route. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pendolino wasn't included as I can't see them making two new trains. I think...
MSTS from 2002 had it too.
Sorry 717, I get confused with the numbering of these modern trains! Yes it quite likely would be DLC. I just can't see DTG being that generous.
I find it is still ridiculous that you have to operate the doors yourself, particularly in older stock. It works in TSC, I cannot for the life of...
What would they base the timetable on though, if it is future dated? I think ECML South seems far more likely, I wouldn't guarantee getting a...
Both are very capable the IOW is a lovely route, routes like Cross City and Tharanter Rampe are both very good routes. I get the feeling with DTG...
I am not worried about a fully populated Crewe station or even yards jam packed full of wagons, although they would be nice. A realistic...
Yes it would be great to see Matrix trains getting involved in TSW. Some of his period 3 carriages and porthole stock would be great to see,...
Completely agree with this, I thought at the time something like the Fairford Branch would have been the logical choice to start with. Or...
It would be good to see the 4F layered into SOS to add more variety but you are still going to be missing the Crewe to Liverpool stoppers which...
Aren't those the annoyingly noisy ones though which seem often louder than the trains you were driving. There was a very useful mod to make them...
Okay so what thought is there for the poor passengers freezing their whatsits off on a cold and wet station with nothing but a rudimentary...
Fair point, I started this thread to gauge the strength of feeling. I would argue though that for some routes there possibly isn't a lot than can...
I am afraid fictional nonsense is most likely as it has been the case with other period DLCs. I think before DMU's the Millers Dale shuttle used...
That is what I think too. Especially as that route has been built as freeware in TSC by two of the developers at JT. It might make sense if it...
Yes I know, if it does that really will be taking the mickey and will shine a light on how serious DTG take realism and immersion. Can you imagine...
If you had told me on release day for SOS that a year later there would be no DLC for it I wouldn't have believed it. Especially after the hype...
Well it is of course all relative. However having a realistic timetable and small collection of trains to use on that timetable isn't beyond the...
If DTG are only going to make routes they can populate with a couple of loco's we are going to end up being very restricted with content,...
Well it doesnt match the passenger timetable I have for that period. Where are the Crewe to Liverpool stopping services? It is a major route into...
But why, the problems with SOS aren't with the route so much but mostly, as you say, with the stock and the steam physics? SOS is a fine route and...
Well I imagine any of the following depending what year in the 80's, class 20, 25, 31, 37, 40, 45, 46, 47, 56
You wouldn't have seen a class 50 in the Calder Valley. After their stint on the WCML they were all on the Western region and the Waterloo to...
I don't want a couple of £ in compensation. I would rather get on a late running train than sitting on a cold windswept station for an extra 30...
No one is denying there are problems, I have myself complained of issues. But I certainly don't find the sim is an unplayable stutter fest, not...
The fines work against the passengers often. Due to delay repay being over 15 minutes, West Midlands Trains like to turn a stopping service on the...
I would love that, but if it is the Furncess line, please lets have a 108 not a reused class 101, as they were very uncommon on that route.
The 101 could fit in there depending when it is set. The Manchester depots didn't have many 101's until the very late 80's, Leeds did, but I...
I can't understand the lack of freight on this route considering there is so much freight operational in the area. I hope DTG and their partners...
I am afraid you are wasting your breath. There seem to be some on here who actually resent the fact that some people are actually enjoying using...
Last year the much heralded spirit of steam route was released, a feat which took up much of DTG's development time. A decent length mainline...
Same here, it will look lovely but I just can't get over Ambergate as a starting point despite DTG's reasons. I am still fed up with the fact...
No mention of any DLC for SOS, is that route now abandoned despite having a timetable which makes the Trenton one look like BML? Also having...
Don't know, but the JT route is 40 miles so isn't Preston to Blackpool North alone. Unless it is both Blackpool routes (north and south). If that...
You are probably correct and I hope that is the case. The extra variety of having steam and diesel mixed might make just forgive it starting at...
