The system is so flawed anyway. You can do an hour run on Cajon and lucky to get 3000 points. Half an hour on Bakerloo and you get 20000 points....
With the brake you have to fine tune the small ejector so that the train brakes stay off when released but don't keep releasing when making an...
Ordinarily you would increase cutoff to 45 or 50% and give it the beans with 80% or more regulator. Unfortunately with the current state of steam...
Surely answer here is new members go on moderated posting for the first half dozen or so posts. Yes it means a delay to genuine posters but worth...
Now that would be awesome!
I wouldn't even object to a Sprinter/Pacer era rendition but there seems to be a preoccupation with making for the UK mainly electrified routes...
Fair enough, I will qualify my statement by revising it to, "If this is modern electric, not really of interest."
Not to mention the misplaced stopping points for some of the stations in the Down direction, the lower case spelling on one of the footbridge...
Short and pretty much flat as regards gradients and scenery. Combine that with modern push to go EMU's and as I said above I really don't see the...
Modern electric not really of interest.
There were also D trains in the daytime, several running from Hoek Van Holland (now reduced to being a metro station) connecting out of the...
Purely whimsical, but after a great struggle I finally got the Level D 767 working in FSX yesterday evening and what a great aircraft she still...
Interesting but of course if you need to clear the service as part of Journey mode, it won’t count if you pick it up on foot.
Apart from me wishing they had gone back to 1982!
It's probably the most scenic portion of the Rhine valley too, having recently driven the TSC version - which of course continues from Mainz to...
Indeed. I know the 10% off is tempting but projecting forward with a mid March release this is likely to hit the mid Summer Steam sale with an...
At least the 10% pre-order discount is back. I am tempted especially for the 103, but with Niddertalbahn likely hot on its heels that's the one I...
Except on Rivet routes where I have had the distant "off" but the associated section (starter) signal "on"!
To be fair, the one thing I have found on the Rivet routes I own is that they do come up with some original and interesting scenarios.
This is because the brakes in the leading cab are still conflicting in the rear cab, so the best you can get is minimum reduction. I think Maik...
If this is the scenario where you have to run the loco round, the scripting is a bit broken and not all the instructions necessary to change cabs...
Boston Sprinter Journey is a bit depressing with that constant winter theme. Autumn would have been more appropriate for the gateway to "New...
I just want to relive sitting on those hard plastic seats in the UIC express coaches... [ATTACH] or the original Silberlinge... [ATTACH]
Right DTG Matt late item collectible on Peak Forest... If we can't get to Derby, let's find the packets of Gypsy Cream biscuits!
Totally OT, but what the hey... Enjoy: Gypsy Creams Recipe (grouprecipes.com)
I used to like Gypsy Creams but apparently the only place you can buy those these days is South Africa! Perhaps DTG should sweeten the Peak...
Looking like Day One… only proviso being the 628 has correct sounds and not recycled from the 612.
Better not get caught between two trains, then! Would have thought on the ground there must be at least sufficient clearance for staff to walk...
Season Pass, I.e. a proper one like Snowrunner did, not a gimmicky bundle.
With me, it’s, “I’m off on the bike to Sainsbury’s dear, want anything?” as they are about the only store selling them at the moment. Then it’s a...
The acceleration sounds are okay. It’s the lack of rheostat braking noise when slowing down and the almost non existent track sound that’s the issue.
Reckon 1998966 could be Peak Forest, then.
I think it's the sight and sound that offer the appeal and I was actually surprised in TSC how relatively low powered the lash up was. The other...
And much sweeter engine sound! The 158 seats as fitted from new were really quite comfortable. The refurb with Chapman seats that the Canton fleet...
It didn’t stop them putting the GTEL on the TSC version and just as with GWE Legends, I wouldn’t be averse if it brought something iconic into the...
Plus if Steam deem you have misused the refund feature, they are liable to get a bit snotty with you. Most of the “soft” warnings I have received...
It would need a slight rework which if earlier reports are to go by is too much effort for DTG’s overworked 3D modellers and artists. However I...
Read in another thread that Sherman Hill, one of my least played routes, had received a bit of an update. Decided to check it out and heck, yes it...
Triage the releases and if necessary wait for a sale. If you’re on Steam as I do, buy the occasional gift voucher and chuck £20 in my Steam wallet...
I still remember the dark days pre MSTS and why I started my infamous web site at the time. The best that could be had for the UK was entirely...
Don't hold your breath... This is cold, hard, cynical business we are dealing with.
Experience of multiplayer in Run 8 and SimRail not good, IMHO. Not sure if it's still the case but SimRail rapidly filled up with griefers and...
And almost certainly in the North West. Would be funny if the rumoured Preston to Blackpool route was actually theirs and not Just Trains.
A point I should have made! Even some of the UK classics like The Port Road, WCML North, Over Shap etc., were done by Keith Ross at arm's length....
TSC shines for steam (as in traction) and routes that don’t stand a cat in hell’s chance of appearing in TSW, like the ones from New Zealand,...
Definitely in the top three of German routes along with RSN and Dresden to Riesa. Sadly a standard not present in the Uber short BBO and...
Well the 158 is Skyhook not Rivet but their record on traction and rolling stock is not sterling either. This definitely a wait and see DLC....
It is possible to run tender first but I believe a speed restriction of 45 MPH is applied.
Come on DTG, you need to give us this. Big noisy diesels are for hauling trains, if I want to see steam I’ll put the kettle on for a cup of tea…
Niddertalbahn gets my only vote at this stage. As others have asserted, probably the only dead cert for a Day One purchase (TSG rep). West Rhine...
