Playing SoS again last night I have to hope the steam sounds get a bit of love. The safety valve blowing continues to mute just about everything...
A couple of items to consider from the event and reveals, though. No news of what Union Workshop might be working on. And the list of new content,...
It is an intriguing solution to having so many routes, it can sometimes be hard to choose where you want to go. I either work through in...
When I saw the reference to Tramsim in the leaked still from the video, my first thought was that it was a new offshoot product and immediate...
This is why, as much as I want to thrash the 158 and the VP engined HST, I will probably take a more cautious approach to this route than some of...
The two pictures in my Bradford Barton book, which are dated 1967, show flat bottom rail so would imagine the route had a mixture of both. One...
I don't think any of the recent releases have come with a pre-order discount, so can't see that changing sadly. For the "second string" routes...
I was trying to find an old Sectional Appendix last night to ascertain the mileage. If it is only 30 miles from Ambergate to Chinley (plus the...
Or they could be doing the Met. Apart from the performance issues and the wretched approach/speed signalling it's a cracking route in TSC.
I know in MSTS, possibly TSC too, it is possible to have rolling starts and finishes where the train is already moving so maybe that's the plan...
I will need to look in one of my old Bradford Barton books, Diesels In The Landscape, later but fairly certain there's a couple of pictures of...
I know the feeling! Which is why we could do with some projected release dates so I can start adding credit to my Steam wallet. Assuming all the...
With the new content revealed for TSW yesterday evening, I have pretty much forgotten SimRail already.
IMHO there is more than enough modern German content, wretched red Dostos everywhere. I am one of those who wanted to see some more vintage German...
Just to clarify then, Tramsim is not an all new DTG product but an "agency" style adaptation of the existing PC product for consoles, similar to...
The sounds and the physics need to be good. I.e. Not like the Rivet 150 and not ,like some of the hydraulic DMU's in TSC where intermediate steps...
Not so sure about this one. Leicester through to Sheffield via Derby or Nottingham would have been a more appealing and rounded project. Or set...
Looks like another Day 1 purchase for me.
Well this is the route I am totally pumped for. Really great to see a line that only partly exists in the current day being recreated for the sim...
Having a blast, yes. It requires quite a bit of skill and judgement especially approaching stations or the odd level or less steeply graded...
I still wonder if the problem is an invisible signal link as it always seems to occur in that underpass. I know locos on the turntable at Edge...
The combined Welsh Highland and Ffestiniog would be the ideal "dream" route.
More pertinent to add the routes I haven't got... LIRR - Tried it briefly but very buggy and didn't look right. Rapid Transit - Tried it twice...
With a tray of Mr Kipling ******** Tarts and ****** Mineral Water to hand.
More pertinent is a rough timescale on releases, so I can plan my furtive trips around the few local supermarkets that still sell Steam gift...
Sign me up on Day 1.
Then put in Diesel Legends with the Class 45, proper MML traction!
Sign me up on Day 1 though length wise probably pushing it and of course there would not be much of a timetable with three trains a day in each...
This is definitely a route where a "delete stuck train" hand of God would come in useful. Funnily enough since buying the route a few days ago,...
Thanks Dino. Sounds like a good route for a quick blast before bedtime. Will add it to my collection later. Just grabbed that and Arosa, which I...
Was toying with getting this but always put off by only two stations, very quick run and reports of less than accurate South of France scenery...
I was toying with this in the sale, or LGV Med which is only a fiver, but aren't the sounds still a bit rough? The coaches supposedly sound like...
Can't really say directly but a suitable Google revealed it on an image search in the first few entries.
It might be the Isle Of Sodor of course...
Boston Sprinter has its share of bugs too, scenarios where you have to workaround to finish them, signalling quirks and Journey mode is set in...
The Harlem Line is good but really needs some extra love. I bought it again in the current sale, but the third Journey run still only gets about 4...
Same here. It reaffirmed my excitement for one item in particular which if well done will be the route of the year if not the whole TSW franchise...
Redditt...
Don't mention the war...
What it has done (an own goal for whoever fluffed up at DTG) is discourage me from spending further money in the sale but keep my Steam funds for...
They are partly fixed... You still can't reliably chain multiple timetable runs and resume without losing the clock and objective data. Had that...
We are also getting the Stratford on Avon and Midland Junction from Blisworth and Olney to Banbury Merton Street and Stratford for a March release...
Of course the irony is, having seen (then forgotten) what was in the bag, I'm now in two minds whether to spend my remaining Steam credit in...
We can tell you, but then we'd have to kill you. Besides those of us who (didn't) see certain things have now been mindwiped.
I've just called up a telepath from Babylon 5 and submitted myself to a mind wipe... Very excited though at what I saw... hang on what, my brain...
There was a thread a few minutes ago with some very exciting information but in between spotting it and posting a reply, it got nuked. Anyway,...
Another concept to take forward is a pop up explaining signal delays. I've been playing a bit of DRS the last couple of days (I will go and stand...
The railtour is quite good, especially going out from Glasgow and driving from the 31 actually shows how nice the scenery is especially out to...
Certainly not at £30...
In the meantime some good discounts on TSW and TSC items, quite unexpected as I had resigned myself to waiting for Easter. Might give Harlem...
