The bug also affects the BR 363.
Sadly, not odd at all....
True enough, but you could do boxcars
This is the Great Mystery of Clinchfield. Nobody has figured it out yet, and (infamously) there's no manual.
Mid '60s. The earlier-purchased SD40s were delivered in gray, but by the time CRR bought its U-boats they were black. There was a trend in...
Just a couple of examples of the liveries one would most often see on the CRR in the 70s. Now, on US freight lines you can see cars from just...
Livery Designer is your friend
A few more nits picked
DB amps should never be 0- that was weird. When working properly, the DB can hold speed on a modest grade, or most grades with a light train....
Unfortunately, DX12 causes a crash any time it tries to load a Livery Designer livery.
When you decouple US rolling stock, only the coupler you actually unlock becomes unlocked; the other one stays locked (unless you do both of...
It's nothing to do with TSW but a fact of computing: higher resolution means more horsepower is needed.
While that's true, apparently the same QA team do all the testing, and that's where the bottleneck is. As for priority... well, something tells...
However, you can start them on foot, and you can control the weather that way. ---- I just finished the Greenbriar Turn in Journey mode- and this...
Yeah, that was the AI loco. Uncoupled cars don't go anywhere by themselves, because as soon as they're disconnected their brakes slam on.
I don't understand how a piece of wood painted red is going to change
Let's not forget that DTG also have a Norfolk Southern license. They haven't used it yet in TSW, but they have in TS.
How? The signaller when contacted at the red stop-and-ask sign (after loading the first hoppers) responds with "Denied. Wait for signal to...
The announcement was rather unclear; it certainly is hard to parse on its own. But putting it together with DTGs past practice, I think it really...
Would be an interesting piece of chrome, but I would put it way, way down the priority list behind other much-needed upgrades.
Probably performance.
If they do do an Amtrak diesel, I sincerely hope it's a Genesis or Charger, not just an F40PH reskin (the F40s are pretty much retired anyway)
All of them
I don't think it's the camera, since "you" are in the cab at all times, and IIRC when I did it I was using the 2 camera (I prefer it for shunting...
Deutsche Bahn paints all its locos red, but there are several private freight operators, and industrial companies that run shunters around their...
People have been asking for a long time for a "Give Up Service" button, but so far, no. But it generally only takes about two minutes for the...
Having driven this route more I am beginning to believe that I have been mistaken, and DTG are cheating. Specifically, the distinction between...
You really believe that a train drives off the moment it's made up? Seriously? Railroads operate to a timetable- that means every train has to...
It's a nice idea, but I don't think I would be clicking between windows while I drive.
Sure, take your ball and go home - because you have no idea how real freight railroads operate.
That's why they make chocolate and vanilla. For myself, I like to drive a train, not stop a train every 2 miles so that stupid humans can get on it.
Nonsense. Consists are made up when the personnel and traction to make them up are available. In many cases the day shift will do the shunting...
More updates
Built-in TSW problem; there is no "non-speeding" speed for TT entrances and exits. IRL, most TT are limited to 10 mph, if you want to use that as...
Way, way too picky, and not at all representative of real life. Can be done, but you have to brake down well in advance and approach the marker...
Well, IRL it's frowned upon to start, even downhill, with the engine at idle and no current to the motors: it's hard on the system mechanically.
Hmmm.
Fair point. I suppose that the only area where this really bugs me (and breaks immersion) is pulling a freight train up to a passenger platform;...
Yes. NB trains are routed to the eastern track and SB trains to the western- at least in game this seems always to be the case. It is possible...
There are different levels of ambient light at night, depending on the time and the season.
I'm not sure that this doesn't reflect RL operation- that on the CRR trains were simply routed to the right-hand track regardless of whether it...
That rope shouldn't even be there, since it actuates the "rear horn" that doesn't exist on this model of F7.
Well, not all that similar. The big difference is that the DLGW pack used locos and rolling stock that already existed in the game; DTG didn't...
Clinchfield is a HARD route. It's not one to start out on! Start out with something easier - GWE is really easy - or get used to US freight...
Of course, there is an issue with some existing routes being TSW2-native, and others being Preserved Collection. If a re-run is included in the...
In TSW routes, services end where the route ends, even if the real train keeps on going. Sometimes the RL train does indeed stop at the last...
It's difficult to deduce a 'pattern' for routes included with annual bundles in TSW, because there is limited data so far. But... TSW1 released in...
To avoid popping the PCS during setup (mostly, this isn't 100%): Set MU2A valve first, then (if on a grade) set Indy brake to Full to hold the...
Actually, now that I think about it, that would make MSB a better fit for the no-cab-car 101. In that case, all player IC trains would start in...
Fair enough.
