I’m happy with my purchase overall. The sounds (traction motors in particular - not the sirens-like sounds) are a tad on the quiet side. The...
If it’s the speedo you want to get rid of, [CTRL]+[5] is your friend.
Yes, you can! That’s why I’m asking :) That’d be fantastic.
Out of curiosity, are you still planning on publishing that Silberling? It looks amazing and would be good for custom scenarios if nothing else....
It is a known issue that the interlock of electric and pneumatic brake on the 110 is currently not protoypical. A similar issue was recently fixed...
Took the words right out of my mouth! You’ll manage! I’m always eager to see more people give the German systems a shot. Should you need help...
These signs are all over Brighton as well.[ATTACH]
Likely be because the issue is known and documented. Unfortunately, it’s one of those visual issues with barely any impacts, which diminishes the...
Agree with cloudyskies21 and MAX1319. I am part of the ‘moaners’ if you like about the 700 not coming to BML but if the choice is between a 700 on...
Oh yeah! So many interesting and unusual or unique designs that you’d never know about otherwise.
Cool! We had a similar design in Germany as well: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] More info here. Your loco is mentioned, too! :)
377 because the Southern service has fewer stops (i.e. quicker travel time). The seats are also not quite as awful as on the 700s. That being...
That's not a sound preview. It's a preview in which you can hear a bit of sound.
I recall that as well. I was hoping for an announcement in the roadmap, but no luck.
Good ideas here. I wouldn't mind it being a pre-recorded video (maybe even published separately beforehand) similar to what AP are doing. Some way...
I have to agree with you. I was desperately trying to catch all of the sounds (especially the brakes - yes, I’m weird like that) but there was...
I wouldn’t say that. Just look at the backlash on the New York - Trenton timetable. I wonder what happened to the exciting 3rd party stuff for...
Not on release. There are plans to add them later but no date currently.
We might be talking past each other since that is what I meant. On steep gradients, as far as I recall, the Bundesbahn required a dynamic braking...
Don’t think it was that complicated. As far as I recall, steep gradients required a secondary braking system just for safety (cf. also Br 213)....
Full support from me. Weren’t the 141s the Knallfrösche because of their different tap changer?
I’m happy with what I heard overall, but I didn’t catch the brake release sound I was hoping for. cf. here, for example: [MEDIA] It’s the sort of...
Some of them. I think that livery was never widespread before the current lCE livery was adopted. I’d say to really nail the 90s, we’d need a wide...
They speculate that it will cost at least 40€ and be released on 26th of September with preorders starting on 22nd of August.
Thanks. Then positioning is all it is. Anyways, I stand by my point of the 401 cab view being rather bad, but that’s no longer linked to a FoV...
Having had a bit more time, I’m happy to say that driving the 103 is a real joy now - as it should be. The 101s are good locos in their own right,...
Well, you’ve got shifts essentially. Each journey chapter is the complete set for one of the ‘turns’. It’s not just a loose collection of services...
Building on what solicitr and torfmeister already said, here’s a short overview: ICE 1: Two power cars and unpowered coaches - first high speed...
I found it very interesting as well. The driver said that they have to use pneumatics only when approaching buffer stops because the electrics are...
Your input is truly appreciated, OldVern. A good sale candidate then, perhaps.
True. Either play at the height of summer, so that the sun sets as late as possible and rises as soon as possible, or play with snow.
I have to respectfully disagree with that. It seems about right to me. Whatever they do, I hope they don't repeat the dreadful FoV of the ICE 1....
Interesting to hear you say that. I'm always sceptical where Rivet are concerned, but old electrics always intrigue me. The patch notes seem...
Mhm, Milwaukee electrics. I'd love to get my hands on any of them.
Same here. :)
Pretty much the best thing keyboards offer to my mind. I couldn't live with that dreadful AP bar in the corner and removing the speedo without...
Thank you for your insights, Matt! I suspected as much in regards to pathing. It's unfortunate and will no doubt hinder further single track lines...
On the AP side, I can only imagine that DC sounds were unavailable for some reason. I don’t see any reason why DTG would prioritise AC sounds (it...
I just learned something interesting yesterday from a driver. I don’t know if it’s the same on the ICE 1, but this is apparently how it works on...
Agreed. Didn’t have much time so I only ran an IR from Mainz to Bingen, but the braking appears prototypical now. Such an improvement. Now, if...
It sounds pretty good to me. We haven’t heard the brake release hiss yet though and that’s perhaps the most distinctive sound besides the...
MRFS, please do share what you know. I'm by no means an expert on US signalling. But I echo what others have said on the forums that diverting a...
Clicnfield remains an all-time favourite of mine. The atmosphere, the locos, the scenery, the timetable, ... It's in dire need of some love...
The often-referenced GP7 would be a fantastic addition to CRR with appropriate timetable services. I'd also like to see the pathing fixed. Doesn't...
If or when the 700 makes its way to BML, it would be nice to get a bit of an extension north from East Croydon.
While I’d love Bedford-Blackfriars, I agree with OldVern that linking this up with BML would be the ultimate dream. It’d feel like such a missed...
Guess that counts as confirmation that my post is indeed visible :D That much I know, but I don’t know what these passages in the manual refer...
Don’t mean to derail this thread, but could somebody confirm whether my previous post at the beginning of this thread is visible? It said that it...
The F7 has auto-transition. You just need to put the transition lever into “1” and the loco does the rest. If it was an earlier F3 model, then...
There’s also the Sauschwänzle Bahn. It was in use till 1977 as the Wutachtalbahn and then started operations as a heritage railway.
