Thanks for the info and thoughts with your family.
Great write up. Having an F59 and Charger in the game would also lead to a lot of other route possibilities down the road too.
Yeah. If you watch YouTube videos of the real SPG it seems like the vast majority of trains are all CSX power. The odd time something else shows...
I thought it would be cool to do a thread on some of the unique scenery along some of the routes or easter eggs that might be hidden away (if...
I just discovered something by accident... these glitched plants/crystals seem to be tie into the season/month somehow. For example if you spawn...
The problem with US passenger stuff is a reflection of the problems with US passenger rail in real life... most US passenger trains are long...
I was testing it today... I switched a bunch of times in the Cumberland yard and it seemed to work fine... as soon as I accelerated out into the...
Yeah I am not 100% what the update did. Apparently they made the crossing arms work but I haven't noticed any of them since they are down anyway...

Good to know it not just me. I am not sure if anyone at DTG actually reads this forum for reports but I also submitted the same info on a ticket.
Tried the same service again today. Exact same problem. I think it’s safe to say that this service is BROKEN at the point where it intersects with...
Same. Seems to be less of them but maybe just in my head. The UP doesn’t bother me so much because at least UP actually does show up on the SPG...
It would be nice if someone could just make a BR187 complaint thread where all the people who hate the BR187 can talk to each other where it won’t...
I have to agree with you that the game is pretty awesome. Sure it has flaws and there are times I want to throw my controller at the screen, but...
I wouldn’t worry about the DLC issue. First of all it only really affects you if you own basically ALL the DLC. For reference I own all the...
I saw that too but if you look the cab is missing ALL it’s labels and markings. I’m thinking this is just a matter of a pre-production screenshot...
The person they use for these is actually a real writer and knows tons of history and includes that in his write up. I love his TSW write ups...
CRR PS5 CRR Extra 3014 Southbound coal 16:41 in SD40. Approaching Allen Storage, came around curve and stopped at red signal. Track ahead was...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I just did my first full run on the map and these things actually don’t start showing up until about 8 miles from Potash when...
Great question.
Am I the only one that bought Cane Creek on PS5?
When I play Cane Creek I get these weird neon green crystals that turn into neon green plants when you get close… they are all over the place and...
Tried running a recreation of the current snow storm in the SPG area. The Union Pacific SD70 and SD40 that sub in from Sherman Hill have no snow...
PS5 When operating long (i.e 4500-6500ft) freight trains, switching from the exterior front view to rear of train view often crashes the game....
My question: Are substitutions/layers ever going to be addressed on US freight routes to be a bit more realistic. For example: 1. Clinchfield RR...
[ATTACH] Not the greatest angle because the train started driving away as I was getting closer for a photo, but was interesting to see a Union...
Plays great on PS5. I’d say it’s totally worth it because the 8th gen consoles limit the game. Also going from PS4 to PS5 you get to keep all the...
I don’t mind at all. I see myself as paying more for the route than the trains. One loco we haven’t seen before and one will be a...
This needs to be removed ASAP. On PC someone has created a mod to remove the Clinchfield SD40 from SPG but those of us on console are stuck with...
Got Cane Creek recently and it has some of the most amazing scenery in TSW but is ruined by these weird neon green crystals that appear on the...
For some reason when you switch through your routes and it loads in the different drivers outfits it causes lots of lag for me. I wish they’d just...
Awesome answers. Thanks!
Have been using the Clinchfield F7 and had a few questions that the tutorial doesn’t cover: 1. The Rotair valve has options for freight, freight...
The F7 in Clinchfield had me thinking this… It would be great to do a US route with mixed passenger/freight in the pre-Amtrak days… Chicago or...
This is the second time I’ve seen this… I think the first was in Oakville… and this time it was with the second in Clinchfield… character stands...
Also funnily enough the stuff that would actually make sense to be totally mixed up across the freight expansions, the freight cars, don't cross...
YES! I mentioned in another thread that I cry a little whenever I play Oakville Subdivision and see all the completely deserted GO stations. GO...
I'd love this. Every time I play Oakville Sub and see all the big empty GO stations I feel like it's a missed opportunity. That line feels kind of...
Granted I haven't put a ton of time into all of them, but the one I like the most is the Boston Sprinter... I like North American commuter rail,...
Pic of the stuck Boston bound trains looking south from Forest Hills.
Was doing a timetable mode today… PS5. started with MBTA 906 from Stoughton to Boston. Finished no issue and arrived in Boston within about 1...
Wondering if anyone has any tips for this… I can’t find any manual for Boston Sprinter… I have no trouble running the F40 or CTC-3 when I load...
On a side note with US freight routes I wish that DTG would revisit the Sandpatch grade and the totally unrealistic substitutions when other DLCs...
Yeah hopefully that simplifies it… I was thinking about deleting the UP/Clinchfield DLC when I play SPG but that would mean I’d have to do a full...
Agree with this. I just bought some of the DLC and noticed now Sand Patch is plugged full of stuff that doesn’t belong on it. Very stupid and...
Just noticed this bug show up on West Cornwall with the class 47/4 (PS5). All the regular class coaches showed the unit number M12345. Saw it on 2...
Are you playing TSW2 PS4 or PS5?
I’ve been playing sim games since the mid 90s… mainly flight stuff but the mentality is very similar. Sims are not just Call of Duty or arcade...
I mentioned a few posts up that I had this issue. What I did was just go to the TSW page and buy it there on sale then I could get it for TSW2...
Thanks for the heads up. I just bought a ton of these. Oddly enough Oakville was showing full price for TSW2 but on sale for TSW… so I just...
