Steam: GWR Panniers Diesel: Most of the Western Region units, Class 31's and 33's Electric: Southern Region EMU's, Class 304/504 EMU, Class 73,...

I agree with you Vern. Some red Panniers would be nice too (not that it'll ever happen! lol).

I honestly think a shorter steam railway with smaller tank engines would have been a better introduction to steam for most players, rather than...

I love that paint scheme on pretty much anything lol. If Hornby ever does another run of Sentinels with one in that scheme it'd be an instant buy...

I did a write up on it about a year ago. I think it would be a good fit....

While a little dated by now, check out the World of Subways series for PC. They've done both the PATH system and the 7.

My latest nostalgia haul. Slowly but surely I'm getting my list knocked down. [img] In a couple months I'll get the first of two 9V trains on my...

Good news, Chris! I got an e-mail from the Society this morning that they were able to find a bunch of the MSTS CD's in storage. I'll drop you a...

I used to have the invincibility cheat memorized back in the day lol

If I'm still slinging tractor parts at 82 I've done something seriously wrong lol

I played this game so much when I was younger, when I had my PS2. Some of the missions were fun, some annoying, but I honestly had the most fun...

I just finished my first self-designed MOC builds this evening. Well, sort of self-designed. They are re-colored and slightly modernized versions...

I received my first Irish locomotive yesterday, a OO CIE Class 181 made by Murphy Models. This is also my first model produced by Murphy and...

Ours aren't much better for visibility. I've had the opportunity to sit in the cabs of a few Metro-North EMU's over the years and they're ok but...

...back in my day we had to walk to school, uphill both ways, in two feet of snow, with no shoes... lol

I haven't heard back from my contact, but doing some more research on my own it seems like dust and other small metallic debris appear to be the...

No quarrel, I think most of the BR-era diesels and 90% of the steam are prettier than what we were fielding here. We had some hits during the art...

The Danbury Railway Museum in Connecticut has received AEM-7 # 917 for preservation. [MEDIA]

They're the ones who put it out. Ultimately freight got cancelled because of the complexities of the timetabling and cab signalling issues involved.

I don't hate NY - Trenton, it just has some bugs that need fixing (despite being reported ad nauseam). Overall it's a decent route if you can look...

I agree on the older "System" sets (hence why I collect them lol), they just had way more personality in my opinion. I think a lot of it has to do...

So I looked through the FRA's public documentation and it looks like the safety glasses rule are on a railroad by railroad basis. I tried to find...

Amtrak not so much, but the commuter railroads usually have some form of dress code. At a minimum, boots and safety glasses are required across...

The Artemis looked huge in the promo photos. Certainly looks like quite the involved build, but fun nonetheless. I've been on the fence on the...

My latest additions... [img]

While I don't disagree with your suggestion (although I'd like to note that Amtrak is the only operator of P42's), this has been suggested several...

Most train shows I've been to have had manuals for sale, I even bought a GP35 manual from a member of another forum I belong to. I've also found...

ATC, ACSES, PTC, and Metro-North's cab signalling are all mainstays on this route

This sounds pretty much like a copy/paste of the TSC route, which is some of the most fantastic content for the game (especially with all...

I've ridden them a few times across various DC trips. They had personality but were for sure getting pretty long in the tooth.

Almost looks like something JR would run lol

Eh, I'm over it. Some people just like to make noise simply for the sake of hearing themselves. If that's how they would like to carry on then...

Exactly, do you? Or are we just an armchair critic?

I hate to break it to you, but according to official data, the UK sees more rail related injuries and death than the US. The latest data for each...

The wide cab designs are literally called "safety cabs". The Federal Railroad Administration has some of the strictest rules and regulations in...

The latest haul. I also have some parts coming from Lego's Pick-a-Brick service for some scenery item MOCs that I'm looking forward to share with...

The last of the scenery items (for now) on my list. Just track left to order now! [img]

A very lucky BNSF crew in Nebraska survived a close call with a tornado this past Friday. Here's the report from Jalopnik......

Each sim has their own functions for them. Here's a link to the templates for each... http://raildriver.com/assets/documents/legends/rd.legends.pdf

I always liked the look of the 319's, I'm glad to see they're being re-purposed

I got some free time this week and made a layout blueprint using the free Blue Brick software. As far as layouts go it's a simple one, albeit...

Got my Rapido M420 today, such an awesome model [img]

My latest acquisitions. I've decided I'm going to do a small Lego 9V oval once I get a layout room. [img]

Syracuse, NY. The CSX mainline goes right past the New York State Fairgrounds and the small train display they have there, including a GG1 and RTL...

DTG's discontinuation of steam content aside, I think 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley would be more appropriate for a railtour DLC, or perhaps Bittern...

A Class 58 would be a blast, and I would love to see more electric motors like the 86 & 90 for variety

I always found the look of these units to be fascinating. I would love to see an overhaul of the original version of the route with these, and...

This would add some much needed variety to the traffic of MML

We are long overdue for some Irish content

Just out of curiosity, how long does it take you to do a piece of rolling stock. And how mad do you get when you rip one of the narrow sections of...
