Well that is reflective of the route in real life, it is mainly a passenger route. Still us "touchers" and "simpletons who like pretty pictures"...
Exactly, and I am sure in time routes will get longer and more frequent.
Guilty of what? You know nothing about individual users of TSW you just think people fit neatly into little boxes you have compiled to justify...
But the detail is higher and the hours to make a routes take longer to make. It may take as long to build a 30 mile route than it does a 200 mile...
Me too but then according to a poster on here that makes me some simpleton with a low attention span, a casual gamer who only wants to play half...
I'm certainly not a console Kiddie, I had a Playstation 2 around ten years ago, that was mainly for LMA Manager! I am a "middle aged" PC owner. I...
Yes it would be good to see those operating. Maybe in the future. It can be frustrating in timetable mode not knowing when the next train is...
I would like to see some more variety in passengers and some of the train crew do look very unreaslitic, I do wish they would address that. I...
I am sorry but that is absolute rubbish. I care very much about the sim, it provides me with hours of enjoyment, very much value for money as...
In the minority of TSW players or in the minority of posters on here, forums can become a bit of an echo chamber sometimes? I have spent more time...
Well I must have missed that rare event! You just seem obsessed with trying to make out that everything has to come down to route mileage and...
Oh spare the mock hurt! I said some not all. You just want to pick fault with everything they release anyway so there was no way you were going...
Well maybe you will when you get it!
Well I have pre-ordered it. I am not bothered by the length, although it would have been nice to see it going to Hastings, it isn't a deal breaker...
Thats TS1 (which is only on PC) which has the Liverpool to Manchester not the TSW in any version!
Plenty of extinct steam engines have been re-created in various sims so it is not impossible. Sounds wise there is a preserved Swindon class 126...
Yes I have commented on the lack of variety of passengers before. Some elderly passengers and some children, especially trainspotting on some of...
Some more variety of DMU's would be good as there were several different classes operating at each end of the line. Sadly, however the situation...
There are one or two who do that! Quite sad really.
I agree about the BR blue models, I would like to have seen the names ones offered. With regards the Western's it is strange that they included...
I agree I would rather they hadn't bothered with the ones they didn't have names for.
Maybe it hadn't come to light it seems that not everyone is having the problem? It is a very good looking model and felt immersive to drive, I...
I would be surprised if Microsoft re-entered the trainsim market. It is a lot smaller the the flight sim market. Microsoft abandoned train...
Or they are making one and it isn't ready yet? Or am I imagining watching a preview of the scenario editor sometime back?!
I certainly would go for TS over Trainz. I purchased Trainz a new era, mainly as I wanted the ECML route which is extensive and is in the BR...
Why would they let you do it for TS1 then? They would more likely make more money if there was an editor as people would more likely buy more...
You down vote everytime he posts! Bit odd to be honest!
Well they would use the names for all of them if they could.
Some of the names are licenced so they couldn't use them, why else do you think they would include some and not others?! Probably best to have a...
Presumably it isn't as easy as "just releasing" the kit otherwise they would have. Why would they hold it back on purpose, most likely more...
Lol I did wonder what it made me sound like! I think they are split but it still looked odd as it went right up to the signal at the end of the...
Thanks KMAN for your replies. I had been hanging around Huddersfield since 7am watching and decided to have a ride into Manchester. So yes it had...
I don't know if this has come up before, I had a quick search but couldn't find it? I was just travelling on a AI service from Huddersfield to...
I would like to see the Cross City line. I think you could get away with the 323, the HST in Cross Country livery and the class 66. Not all the...
Well the 52 was designed for express passenger work to no it wouldn't have a problem on that route. As long as it is something you can turn on or...
As long as it was optional so you could have realism or fantasy then I agree, if it was only one or the other I would be against it as personally...
It is good to see matters put into context by a member of the team so thanks to Matt for that response.
I don't think it matters either way and I don't know what is trying to be proved here. There are pictures of blue class 31/1's at Thornaby depot...
But the class 31 (I have since found out) is a more useful locomotive for the TVL rather than NTP so why would they release it for that route?...
That is later than the route setting and it seems they weren't used on passenger services on NTP so I guess it doesn't matter anyway. I am sure I...
Okay thanks for that, I stand corrected I assumed those in the NTPA pool were used on that route.
Yes they did, they had a few according my Ian Allan platform 5 book from 1988 and Crewe had many and they alongside Gateshead supplied traction...
I was hoping a class 31 would become available so very happy it is being released. However I will echo other thoughts about them being available...
That is like saying a Koenigsegg is similar to a Austin 7 as they are variations of the same basic design! The are lots of differences between a...
When were you made a moderator?
I don't think you are correct. I believe it is possible for them to run at higher speeds if their locomotives and infrastructure are fitted with...
The trouble with Rugby is that as far as I know a lot of trains don't stop there, that would also be a longer route than we have seen so far in...
I would like to see free roam scenarios introduced it is something I do miss from TS1. Especially for the ability to potter about in yards and up...
