Am I the only person who can barely hear the platform announcements?
IMO that just screams "the performance is bad"
Yes. The 221s that came in from Avanti might still have it installed, but the original crosscountry ones have it removed.
The 375 received new sounds, and all three trains had updated destination screens which scroll showing all stations the train calls at.
The tilting system has been removed from the XC 221s so it'd be unrealistic for them to be tilting anyway.
I got the impression that they were making an entirely new TT.
Class 158 Wessex Trains: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I wonder whether they made the May or December 2019 timetable, as the December timetable change runs until May the next year, by which point,...
As well as the North Wales services the 221 sometimes operated the Scotland via Birmingham service, which is the service that'll be able to be...
I don't know how many trains a day there were but I'm fairly certain one of the Brighton services started at Great Malvern.
Unrelated to the route itself but Crosscountry used to have quite the network [ATTACH]
I assume it's to show how it can be used on free roam, as Crosscountry ran services to Brighton until 2008. Though back in those days the Gatwick...
IRL the first four Heathrow Connect class 360s were built as 350s as demo units and were converted to 360s when Heathrow Connect acquired them,...
Unplayable mightve been a bit of an exaggeration on my part. But there's no denying that the blurry textures are horrific.
I have a question for DTG Liam regarding the Heathrow connect class 350. Will they be formed of 5 cars and have the number range 350001-350004 as...
I'd be disheartened if the performance and blurriness hasnt been fixed. While features like announcements etc are good and all, I'd like to think...
Another thing that hasn't been mentioned is the sound updates to the Scotrail 170 to bring it up to the same standard as the XC one. It'd be a...
I saw a class 85 being transported by lorry on the motorway a couple of weeks ago, had no idea it was the only one!
I counted at least 10 Amtrak services that run up the Hudson Line and that'd be more than enough for me. They made the Flixtrain and that only...
HST in the earlier First Great Western livery: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
In the article it said that the route will have all 3 350 variants in all liveries. We should expect: [IMG] 350/1 in Ex-London Midland livery....
Do any of those services run via Tame Bridge Parkway or are they all via Sandwell & Dudley?
I remember the main problem I had with WCMLS was with the timetable, the scenery being ok-ish but not the worst. Even if it is a mess, the good...
I'd rather they made an all-new timetable from scratch for the WCML South, as there's still quite a few missing services in the original, and a...
True. But IMO it would've been worth the extra effort, and I think most of the freight yards on SOS have long since closed. I mean they made...
If they made the Hudson line there'd be quite a bit more than 2 services.
It would have made the route so much better to have the Liverpool Lime Street branch, its only about 15ish miles and would have added so much to...
I imagine the on-board announcements will have fun with that one
Aren't those services all 390s? They alternate between Glasgow Central and Edinburgh, with a couple running to Blackpool North, I'll have to check...
I feel mostly the same about SWT/SWR. The two major main lines that are missing are GEML and SWML and I'd be surprised if the UK core route for...
The main appeal for me of this route is being able to drive all the way from Crewe too Carlisle.
I wonder whether the announcements will be the same on every train or they'll use different voices to vary it. They didn't sound like the actual...
I'd rather an actual steam route set in the past, as heritage lines are limited to 25mph
It'd be good to see some timetable improvements for the WCMLS, since they disappeared into thin air. There was a 350/2 in the livestream so would...
Core optimisation was one of the first things they said would be coming with TSW6 when it was first announced.
The MML comes with the EMT version, though they probably ought to apply a South West Trains livery, even if its just to the outside. Speaking of...
If I'm right the 805 wouldn't feature that heavily in this route. I'm pretty sure they run the Euston to Birmingham services (AI only at...
Just read the FAQ and it looks like they went to town with the timetable. IF the route is representative of the more recent screenshots then DTG...
I'd imagine it'll be a similar situation to SEHS where the original version "becomes" the newer version if you own it. It would be quite...
It would have been great to have the little branch up to Liverpool, as it would have meant there could've been a slam-door EMU for the Crewe-Lime...
Hopefully should include a London Midland 350, which I'd love as the livery was designed by the same people as South West Trains! :)
After the WCMLS fiasco, the timetable for this route had better be correct: 150: 2TPH Exmouth to Paignton The 150 should also appear on...
The stations for the Riviera line look very good; the scenery isn't the worst but did give off a similar vibe to the Cardiff route.
Slightly annoying to see the unrealistic grey ballast on the UK route, it should be more brown.
Looks a decent selection of routes, have no idea where the German one is though
In my eyes a deluxe loco should feel like a bonus, and not something you HAVE to buy for the route to feel realistic.
The background looks like TSC, TSW lighting is a bit brighter
My slightly pessimistic fear is that they'll make the IET the deluxe loco.
Are the clues on repeat or do they only play once? (Unable to tune in at the moment)
Has to be a castle class for railtours along the route, I'd take that if it isn't a voyager
