A new Acela trainset, a refurbished BPE and a new US route which may not be a segment of the NEC. That's quite a lot to look forward to in '23....

While you're doing that, would you put in a good word for better night lighting, realistic US headlights, rush hour passengers and a proper...

Well, as you've said yourself quite recently, this " titanic showdown " is always a foregone conclusion. So not that " interesting " after all....

I tend to agree. The fact is that British players enjoy commuter routes because it's the overwhelmingly dominant form of traffic in the UK. I...

Me too. But not by a mile. With more drivable locomotives and better vegetation, Cajon would be closer to SPG than any other US freight route.

Hate to spoil your party, but with 10 routes and 70 total votes, how useful is this poll? The average would be only 7 votes per route, hardly a...

I've never tagged a moderator and I'm not going to start now, but it would be nice to get a response to this mystery.

I've been having problems recently with the throttle/brake and reverser on BML in TSW3 that I was not having in TSW2. I've been using a hybrid...

Again!!

Yes, it would be good to get an explanation for the absence of " load last checkpoint ", now that the save function has been restored. I had...

Thanks. Corrected.

The best US freight route in TSW is still Sand Patch Grade, even though it's close to 5 years old. If you own TSW2, you already have it. Cajon...

Not likely. Apparently it would take a couple of years to upgrade all the TSW2 routes. And there's no indication from DTG that this is on the cards.

Must be tough to be rude and depressed at the same time. I hope Christmas brings a little joy to your bleak world.

Heard of the word " please "?

We play with trains. Doesn't that make us all kids at heart?

None of which I have ever experienced on London- Brighton. There are a number of cosmetic issues with the route, as Vern mentioned, and my main...

Like many a living room. ;)

I would gladly pay for a remake of the GP40-2, if it came with several liveries and was layered onto a new or some existing routes.

Me neither. BML is a complete enigma. It has its quirks as you mention, but I've played a lot of services, running up and down the line and I've...

Well, I'm no "youngster", but I can't think of anything more fun than waking up on Christmas morning and taking this tiny train on a run around...

This is great! A Christmas puffer-billy!! ( I hope this is not the US route that's in preparation! ) No but seriously, this could be the initial...

Well, I wish Simrail every success. The market needs more players. But I'm not an early- adopter, so I will watch, wait and read. And the...

It's currently trading at £1 = $1.21, which is higher than it's been in a while. The US price is being rounded up from about $36. Or, maybe it's...

There's no point in getting fussy about spelling in the forum, either by players or mods. The " Getting Started " sub- forum introduction has had...

I don't have answers for your first five issues ( none of us do, to be truthful, including DTG it seems ), but as for SPADS, perhaps develop the...

Ah, wouldn't it just. I have this recurring dream ( nightmare ) that TSW is headed towards a completely electric future, at least in Germany and...

Relax! It's only been a year and a bit since rush hour passengers were due to be added to BML. And it can't be much more than that since SFJ and...

Maybe, but I doubt very much that the elimination of the pre-order discount was done in the interest of fairness. If it was, why not announce that...

Yes, but it's really a combination of route length, quality of scenery, locos and rolling stock and gameplay/ number of services. So a short...

It's a constant problem on the forums. Posters voicing their own opinions, yet claiming to speak for everyone, using words like " we " and " all...

Me too. I used to watch the streams regularly when DTG Protagonist would hold everyone's feet to the fire. In those days, they were genuinely...

I like Oakville a lot, even though it's still an unfinished route with so much untapped potential and still awaiting a patch. But what really...

This dlc looks interesting. I mean it's full of red boxes, but at least they're older red boxes, which are a bit more engaging. And the driving...

Have to say, all Sharon E's shots look OK and perfectly acceptable to my eyes. I just don't see the issue here. Probably down to settings or mods.

Regarding " Loading last checkpoint ": I had actually asked this question back in June, 2021, so you are correct, Chief, though I was really...

I know what it is. I was looking for a more informative answer. And it was in all iterations of TSW, up to and including TSW2.

It is hauling something though, or are they just empty cars? And it is ubiquitous, at least on the services I've run. So, I wouldn't consider it...

How did they work? Were they related to the save game function somehow? I would like them back, they were useful sometimes when you accidentally...

If I ruled the world, I would change the name of this sub-forum to " General Discussion " rather than close it completely. There are and have...

In 2021, " Rush Hour " arrived with enormous fanfare. As it turned out, one of the three Rush Hour routes never got the passenger numbers promised...

I decided to run that service to check my performance. Leaving Victoria: 46-48 fps. Passing Battersea: 54-56 fps Leaving Clapham Jctn: 60 fps Held...

I find it amusing that the offending word is actually an American slang expression with several meanings, most of which are not really that vulgar...

Of the routes you don't have, OldVern, the one I would recommend is HSC, which I bought when it launched. I just recently started to run it and...

They certainly should. There's more than one route that could use improved signal visibility. I'm thinking specifically of Cajon Pass, but there...

Actually, I wasn't joking about the birds. They really should be in the game. Maybe they're hard to model. But yes, ambient wildlife is fine,...

No, it tells your story not the whole story. That may well be true, but that's not the same as players' experience on their home machines....

Just ran 1W02 to Brighton via Gatwick. Played with nary a stutter, very stable 60fps, Folks, I sympathise with those who have difficulty with BML...

OK, I surrender. Bring on the cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs, what have you. Oh and would you give all those cats a litter box,...

And what makes it difficult to analyze is that, if 1000 people are playing the same route at the same time, there will be 1000 different...
