Dead line, seems to me.
1) It isn't "clearly" edited; I see no evidence that it was; and 2) The rules nowhere prohibit it- so long as a picture accords with the week's...
It's entirely possible that DTG have never implemented a US equivalent to the routine which makes PZB functional; in other words, the lights...
Your problem is that you pulled forward ahead of the red stop board, relying on the signal only. That placed you practically on top of the...
Is there going to be a patch on Tuesday, and if so what will be in it?
Exactly. The point of playing Clinchfield is experiencing railroading on the Clinchfield- including the vagaries of a single-track line with its...
33% more locomotive physics to compute (4 vs 3 F7s)
Basic principle: New routes can have older trains layered in, but not the other way around. SKA was made before HMA and its 423 existed. So they...
The lockdown won't last forever.
The railroaders have called it the "dirt train" pretty much since it began running, since to all appearances that's what it's hauling: big...
Some change to the core for Clinchfield's coal loading apparently broke it for SPG. Familiar story.
You just have to wait a good long time for the line to clear. The joys of single-track railroading.
I love the little pfft! of escaping air when one turns off the F7 bell.
In this floor plan of an F3, it's #43: [IMG]
1) At this stage of the shunting op, the caboose has been left on a siding so it's of no help. 2) Yes, you can walk to do the uncoupling, but...
Gives a whole new meaning to "downloading content"
Actually the green livery belongs to the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr, and is used on all S-Bahn trains in their region regardless of operator. That...
Journey mode, No. Timetable mode? Of course you can! On the loco selection screen, pick your loco and then click "change livery"
Every time you make a throttle or dynamic brake change in the lead???
That's route signaling, which apparently CRR and certainly its related RR (Seaboard, CSX) never used. It's more a Western US thing.
That's correct. The motors are rotating backwards against the field, which pretty much is what dynamic braking is. The ammeter is registering...
It's a mod. Easier to read than the ball.
There is a train, although when you reach this point it usually has yet to start moving on the map unless you've been really slow. Just wait.
It used to work just fine: haven't tried it since the latest patch. Tip: the instructions say 2 mph, but you won't get your hoppers 100% full at...
The F7 is possibly the worst example of a problem with many TSW locos in keyboard mode: there just isn't a detent, or much of one, between Service...
It is the McClure Shifter sequence, in Journey mode (where one can't choose the season or weather). The same service in Timetable mode in summer...
All right- got it. The problem was that there is a train coming through- but you have to wait nearly twenty minutes for it to show up, roll by...
Not until steam comes out, which may be years away
I am becoming more and more persuaded that the signal/speed limit/ pathing system is simply messed up. Here's one example: the crossover near...
Inflation is a real thing, and no business can continue to charge the same price for the same product for years on end. We all undertand that....

Compare this old log from Clinchfield to the familiar papier-mache ones from older routes: [IMG]
If DTG staff do glean anything from the many (many, many) threads on this topic and the BR 101 cab car, it should be this: the customer base are...
Before 2015, anyway, because it's (First) ScotRail not (Abellio) ScotRail. DTG apparently have a licensing relationship with First Group (GWR),...
Insert Santayana quote here....
Clinchfield: longest route to date and arguably the best-looking; certainly the most scenery-packed.
IIRC, the 218s' depot is at Lubeck.
I haven't had that problem; they move fine (and sometimes on their own when I don't want them to!)
Wagons spawn into freight trains at random, in any mode. But you can't choose them, they just happen.
Not a big leap, considering they're the exact same ones. :mad:
What entices me to buy a route is usually A) unique gameplay, B) new, different rolling stock and C) interesting setting, roughly in that order....
TSW routes are never going to come with as many locos as those in TS. It's way cheaper and less time-consuming to develop locomotives and...
Well, at this same stage the preview shots of Clinchfield showed an SD40 that still had SD40-2 handrails and other details, and they were fixed by...
Interesting what it has to say on pp. 8-9 about helper engines. It seems in many cases they didn't even use radio; the helper engineer was...
Outstanding!
Surrounding terrain: mountains and ravines. The dips correspond to bridges because bridges go over ravines.
[IMG] Clinchfield RR, F7A & B, SD40.
Perhaps, but I put it here because this is where the train painters hang out. Besides "Suggestions" is really for suggestions to DTG, not the...
There is actually an explanation for this, or at least some of it: apparently since the CRR main line was 30 mph (other than one 25 section), they...
Can anyone point me to a CRR service with helper engines and an SD40 lead? I'd like to experiment
