Don't panic... 1. There is no indication DTG are planning a move to a third version of the game. 2. I'm sure if they do at some point, existing...

I always thought this was just to cover the fact with a long train it takes a few seconds to reload the new view.

I also suggest it is a mistake to show the complete route in the stream. It removes the mystery of discovery that a new player will find. It also...

I suggested something broadly on these lines in one of the other threads, in the absence of the intelligent from AI or the ability to manually...

This isn’t really a bug, more a missing feature. Has been raised numerous times in the various main boards and Suggestions forums but to date no...

Well I guess you could always have all the activities at night and they wouldn’t notice the wires…

Yes I hope this is just a bit of redirect on DTG’s part. As much as I find the route itself a bit underwhelming it should at a minimum get a Black...

I’m guessing there is a parallel here with Run 8, where if you don’t own all the rather extensive collection of cars trains still appear but with...

100% want this with maybe part of the Waterloo to Exeter line on which to run it.

Fully support the OP. In fact station dwell time could be randomised, if you're running late and everyone has boarded, let's close the doors and...

Eeek. I just tried the demo for 5 minutes and that is fiendish. Can't imagine how complex the full version gets later in the day!

Well that's something that would need to be considered at the planning stage, but the eras are not that far apart as opposed to trying to merge a...

135 sounds a lot but don't forget that probably includes short ECS moves at Lime Street to and from Edge Hill, similar light engine movements plus...

Then you extend NTP from Leeds to York, link that in and you have a substantial Northern Powerhouse network! And while I'm never going to be a...

Well we definitely need a mixed traffic loco and an example of whatever was used for shunting the goods yards and stock sidings. Someone posted...

Bit of a bump here I see, but as regards SimSig, it absolutely does not have to be operated in MP. I have always run in single player mode. The...

Even some sections of main line in the UK utilise spring points or points held in the running direction by a hydraulic ram which yields to passage...

With regard to gradients, yes there are some as the first thing I did when the route was announced was dig out my Ian Allan profile book for a...

At the moment no, but I am of the view it should be to properly address some of the incomplete aspects, at least bring it to the level of steam...

Problem with Flying Scotsman or any A3 (or A4) is that it has a relatively limited application - i.e. top link passenger services. The Jubilee...

Exactly what I said unless of course they are planning a surprise...

Very apparent watching the stream how intrusive the safety valve noise is. They had to turn the volume down and move the viewpoint to half way...

I would support this as driving NTP with steam, even in its 1980’s era depiction, would be far more enjoyable than dreary Crewe to Liverpool. Give...

Yes but the problem is, with few third parties and no official route builder, as I noted earlier if Rivet build it then no one else is going to....

Indeed, I can accept the sparse vegetation as generally at this time the lineside was kept fairly clear of trees and shrubs. But continuing to...

This. It’s not like this is the first ever computer simulation of steam. If the experience can’t at least equal the default in MSTS, TSC or Trainz...

It has been a requirement to fence off UK railways since they were first conceived in the 1820’s, so yes it is quite right that a route set in the...

Quite surprised to see them on an urban route! My preference would be a rural or secondary line, just would be a nice change when driving in Germany.

I'm really beginning to wonder now if this is actually ready for prime time. We have the fireman issues, Matt seems to confirm the regulator and...

Indeed. My one regret with Run 8 is that they haven't included some older F units which would be great fun all the way from Fresno to Seligman or...

Well it would be an interesting possibility. The problem as things stand is that (so far as we know) every train runs to a set path and a...

As I said above, they are already talking about farming it off to the Pres Crew before it's even out!

One other quick thought off at a tangent from AI firemen and buffet cars. I caught the run through of the various scenarios and see there is...

Well we can debate this until blue in the face, but I stand on my point that if they were going to do steam properly then the time, financial and...

No, not really Alex. Because otherwise there goes the best chance of getting a decent stab at one of the UK's if not the world's most iconic and...

As has been said before, the people working on 3D models or artwork are not necessarily the ones doing the coding. Let's not rose tint this....

Perhaps they will do Stourbridge Junction to Town with the Parry People Mover. Probably still make a mess of that though.

Reminds me of the old film Beetlejuice, when the deceased couple were travelling through the afterlife admin areas (!) and they passed a room set...

Though as I commented previously Gary, they have had months if not a year or two of lead in time to get the firing aspect - whether AI or player...

Sadly CRR seems to have joined the ever increasing list of “fire and forget” TSW routes. Launched with great hoorah, but then left to languish...

Yes getting a horrible Cathcartish feeling of deja vu here. I still need to track down the stream on YT and watch it but I know from the short...

It’s more the authenticity of the consists, if this is supposed to be a historic recreation of the route and era. No different to releasing GWE...

If that is the case then no better than early Trainz or the old Japanese console games, Kisha de Go (the steam edition of Densha de Go) or SL de...

HST era would be better but as stated OP has spammed another unrealistic route request. We are waiting to see if DTG have any plans for GWE but...

Sorry you can’t take a bit of whimsy…

Good points Gary. It's a source of frustration that I can't run the HST with the doors open to hear a bit of engine noise, yet the Class 395...

OP - Assuming you are running TSC, you need to ask the mods to move the thread to the relevant section. If you're running MSTS, Open Rails, Trainz...

No disrespect but we really don't need this bringing down to include Thomas references. It's never going to be seen in TSW. My RMB has more chance...

Run flat out at 50% cutoff, that will soon sap the boiler! But seriously, a definite concern and one which needs to be addressed. As I posted...

I think it is considered bad form to tag DTG team members in routine route requests. Your suggestion has no less or greater merit than any other...
