I will have to try the BMG version again in TSC to compare, but certainly my recollection taking an 8 coach passenger consist over The Port Road,...

You really do need to advance the regulator gradually on the 8F. Even 10% seems enough to induce wheelslip at > 55% cutoff particularly in the...

I’d say it’s about 50/50. After all we have seen a rise in the number of quite short routes and yes there is an element of assumption but equally...

My only thoughts on the 8F is that it still seems a tad overpowered. Maybe the Northampton to Edge Hill consist is fairly lightweight but it...

In fact the quote from the T&C above states exactly what to do if you feel something breaches copyright - use the CC report button. It does not...

Indeed. I was very critical initially but mellowed on seeing it would be £20, to the point of maybe even buying if it gets a pre order discount....

Maybe the simplest answer would have been a money off voucher towards a route of the player’s own choice or, if you own everything, a future...

I suppose it could be something like Bolton to Blackpool, not inconceivable given Ambergate to Chinley. As regards the 26’s I suppose at the...

Thanks. I’m still pumped for the route and will be eagerly waiting tea time to come and go on Tuesday so I can get upstairs on the main PC and get...

Thanks Matt. Hopefully it will come.

I suspect “26” is a red herring. The logical home for a Class 26 would be Inverness but none of the routes gives a logical end point at 46 miles....

Not watched the stream or the YT highlights but what if anything was said about the chances of a green Class 45 in there at some stage? Also what...

I too would love to see a steam pack for WSR. Maybe something like a Pannier or Prairie tank, or perhaps a Hall, all of which would have reuse...

Indeed. OP way to destroy your forum credibility at a stroke. And while I’m a confirmed agnostic, nevertheless the old biblical saying comes to...

Well that really is too fast for a Jubilee. IIRC the fastest speed for a LMS loco was 114 MPH set by Coronation Class 6220 Coronation in 1937....

I am still wondering on Edinburgh to Dundee, not sure what that would give us train wise though.

Got to admit, having watched Don Coffey’s cab ride again, I am slowly coming round and slightly warming to the idea of this route, particularly if...

I just had a bit of wheelslip with the 8F at speed… 50mph, 35% cutoff and 55% regulator. Weather conditions wet but shouldn’t really be happening....

Wonder whether or not the Earles branch could be included? I know on Don Coffey's clips of trains to/from he always has to finish or start the run...

If they wanted to dip their toes in the water, how about the old Hunstanton branch from Kings Lynn. Or something like Norwich to Ely and March,...

Think there might be a Class 111 in TSC, though suspect probably aliased to AEC or Leyland engine sounds. Bear in mind the Class 101 in TSW as it...

This. Camera views are fine as they are.

This. In fact the whole network ought not to be too onerous for a committed route building team. Self contained, no massive motive power or...

Excellent news. Just grabbing the update off Steam now and I'll be catching up with all the freight runs that previously couldn't be done.

Indeed. Depending how it goes later, might even drop the tenner on the Cornish steam pack.

Ah yes I was forgetting about the Westerns working stone trains. In fact I think I have a picture in an old Bradford Barton book depicting that...

Well I'll be grabbing the TSC French routes. Bought LGV for TSW a couple of months back in one of the sales so it didn't exactly break the bank....

Select manual firing in options then make sure both dampers are open. (M and Ctrl M on PC to open, Shift M and Shift Ctrl M to close). Make sure...

No problem Jane. Thought I’d drop the bit in about speakers, as I’m sure at least where the PC is concerned most of us these days rely on the...

I’m not saying for one second they shouldn’t. In fact I’m one of many lamenting the fact DTG are not retasking the Class 45 and Class 101 into...

Still Matt, as I just posted, sustained 90 MPH or even 85 MPH with a Jubilee seems a bit fanciful. Maybe a Duchess or Princess could manage it,...

Sounds like one of our resident mythical creatures* that live under Norwegian bridges has cloned themselves a new account. *And now I can't get...

TBH that sounds more of a realistic top speed. Jubilees were essentially Black Fives+ and a more realistic cruising speed would be around 75 to 80...

Indeed. Imagine GEML starting at Ilford and finishing at Witham, or the LSW main line starting at Wimbledon and finishing at Pirbright. That's...

Same here actually Gary, despite my initial scepticism. The 158 is addictive, like a Cadbury Fruit and Nut bar I can't get enough of it. Helps...

Roger that. Will grab later on and give SoS a whirl. PS: Can someone who's already got the patch do one of the freight runs starting at Basford...

Point taken but we are also looking to simulate an operational railway which has it's logical start point at Derby, also historically regarded as...

That's what I was thinking as also with the possibility it could be the Met. You need to extend scenery a mile or two at the end of each...

It was originally electrified at 1500v DC with Class 506’s (which as an aside are very similar to the old South African suburban EMU’s) but was...

What time will the update be pushed on Steam?

Strange thing about the Electrostars… The 375’s on SEHS are quite noisy with a bit of traction sound. But the 377’s and 387’s on BML are virtually...

Also ETS2 and ATS start you off at a stand and respawn all the AI traffic. Even Run 8 resumes the save game with all trains at a stand and in the...

There has to be a balance and while, yes, the toxic posts with accusations of laziness don’t help, it’s also hard to avoid not starting to think...

Another wild idea - Wherry Lines? Just trying to figure the total mileage of Norwich to Yarmouth via Acle and Berney Arms plus Lowestoft. That...

Hopefully we will find out tomorrow. I believe there were a couple of through trains to London at one point, though these don't appear in the 1963...

And lines like Grantham to Skegness, Central Wales, Cambrian Coast, anything north of Perth probably unlikely to ever see it!

Not to mention there are still loco hauled services running in a few places - various overnight trains, Chiltern Railways with the superb 68's,...

Most of mine reprise what's already been mentioned in the forum but anyway... Please justify why the route did not start at Derby (accepting also...

Anything from the old Yugoslavian Narrow Gauge network... JZ index (penmorfa.com) Blackpool Tramway in the early 80's or late 70's....

It's a funny thing Danny, but my GE Overlay still works without having to give them any credit card details. In the immortal words of Hagrid from...
