I had assumed that at actual stations (not mere stops) the exit signal was set to red as a matter of course
Newport Lifting Bridge, Tees Valley, Class 31/101 [IMG]
Ah. Quite so, I stand corrected. This then does require fixing (God knows when); the signal change in this situation ought to be tied to the...
Right. Although actually to be safe, use .pak reskins made expressly for TSW2- try older ones, because often they work fine, but sometimes they...
How? What CPU/GPU are you using? Is it Windows 10?
The thing about "closing the doors on a red" is that it's 100% up to the player to obey the driving rules. The game doesn't close the doors for...
Ironically, the RAF did the future DB an enormous favour by clearing out all that old 19th-century trackage and making them start over.....
I don't see how one could do NTP or TVL HUDless; the speedboards are nearly (or wholly) invisible, there are no Morpeth boards at all, almost no...
Are you running under DX12? DX12 + Livery Designer = autocrash.
"You can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot please all of the people all of the...
There is nothing inherently wrong with using .pak files just like always; sometimes those made for TSW2020 will cause a crash when the route is...
German routes, yes. British routes? Morpeth boards are only placed in advance of "significant" speed reductions- and not all of those to date.
Gee, then while you're at it, why don't you complain that the keymapping doesn't work on Japanese or Swahili keyboards, and call it a "bug"? TSW...
Or even if you are exactly on time. On a single-track bidirectional line, some train is necessarily going to have to be pulled over on a siding...
If that's the standard, then it's never going to happen. DTG are not going to a) create a whole new train for SKA just to give it away free, or...
Yes, the 4400s dynamic brakes are screwed up. Ran PA2 last night because of this thread, and found my DB kept creeping up to 99kp and slowing me...
It takes a lot more man-hours (= money) to build routes in TSW than TS, so TSW routes are shorter. Actually, with 37 miles of main line plus...
At least from a 3D modeling perspective, one of the streamliners would be easier
Well, it isn't really "cut away," they just removed the body panels.
There is also RB 58 from Frankfurt, which sometimes stops at Laufach but sometimes goes on to Gemunden. Unfortunately for TSW, it's operated by...
Its twin, a little more battered: [IMG]
Well, not all that small. Pretty much the same size as most of the Geep family.
Well known and oft-complained of bug. Two workarounds: 1) SAVE AND RESTORE 2) use the 8 or 3 camera and fly away until you can no longer hear...
There is pretty much no reason in-game ever to have a dead engine in tow. IRL, it's only for moving disabled engines to the shop, or possibly a...
Depending on period. Since over the course of the 70's Clinchfield demoted their F7s from the main line to branch work en route to retirement,...
And since you're on time, the ambulance crews know when to be at the station to treat all the injured passengers.
The issue is that when DTG make a new route, they can create layering timetables for locos that already exist in TSW, but they can hardly get out...
The vid was shot in 1992-93
For VERY slow-speed short moves, like in and out of a shop or onto a turntable, some diesel-electrics like the AC can be moved on battery power...
I believe in the non-streaming stream, Matt pointed out that on one of the spurs (Moss?) CRR used five leading and two helpers.
Oh, I know that; I was referring really to the fact that on the older UK diesels- still a decade newer than the F7! - while they do have automatic...
One tiny quibble on the light setup in the video: the #2 engine is an intermediate unit and ordinarily wouldn't show any lights. In theory, you...
Seine Englisch ist ausgezeichnet!
Interesting- it never occurred to me that with the banking pair it doesn't matter which loco is lead or which is trail, but I guess it doesn't! I...
It's a lead (#3), just without a #4 slave loco. A trail by itself that isn't coupled to a lead can't do anything! Being backwards, the only...
Well this is prose, not video, but I'll give it a go: Understand that we are setting up two things conceptually here: an MU or multiple unit,...
Jesus, I hope I'm never a passenger on a train you're driving!
It strikes me that players who want to prep for Clinchfield should drive not only SPG, but also NTP, TVL or DLGW: driving old-school diesels is a...
I do find it amusing that the engineer interviewed calls switchers "dinkies."
In a different vein, but wholly appropriate, try the soundtrack to this Clinchfield video: [MEDIA] (The band is the Steeldrivers)
Newer coaches use electrically initiated brake systems. Older coaches and freight wagons use pneumatically (air) initiated systems.* The switch...
Affirmative. 0 is for freight wagons, since no passengers will be pulling any handles!
Anyone who ever took wood shop in high school knows what a dovetail joint is
DTG also have an ÖBB license. They made the Mittenwaldbahn and the ÖBB 4020 EMU.
True, but those are global settings that affect everything on your computer.
While the 145 and the entire TRAXX family derive from the experimental 12X (BR 128), the 145 is expressly a freight locomotive, with axle-hung...
While this is the main line between Munich, Innsbruck, Salzburg and Vienna (and thus also the Brenner and Budapest), and sees a lot of traffic and...
On NTP it depends what you're driving. I can do it with a Class 45, but the 47 on the same services is too sluggish.
What with Hamburg-Lubeck, and HMA not all that long ago, it's a bit soon for another German route. But Austrian? That could be interesting.
IIRC, there are no PZB indicators in the cab of the 204, except the yellow and red magnet lights on the PZB box (apparently this box was a...
Separate names with a comma.
