A colour light signal "feather" (or junction indicator) is a row of white lights mounted at a 45° or 90° angle above a main railway signal, used...

Now some more general observations... Finished the 1P90 run and other than the signalling issues, very nice too. However... 1. Although the...

Just doing 1P90 after reading about it in the "Awesome Runs" thread. This may be a hangover from the original GWE but no approach control (or...

That is the slight frustration. Would be nice to think behind the scenes this is a springboard for GWE 2.0, adding Oxford and/or Swindon plus the...

OP - It's considered a bit impertinent to directly tag DTG personnel with non urgent matters. The short answer is, no reason why there wouldn't...

Sadly DTG have a track record of not fixing broken Journey Mode elements. The G6 still has a shunting timetable that can’t be finished due to a...

I have also had an issue with the 166 on the remastered GWE, PC/Steam. Load into a save game, runs for a few seconds then freezes and hard locks...

All of the OP and add in a Class 56!

Revisited the 140 for the German one. Just wish it layered on more routes than the rather boring Stuttgart to Hellbronn.

I had better get cracking then!

Sorry to report running the route with a Class 166 up from Reading to Paddington on a stopper resulted in two hard locks of the game and PC, on...

Not yet. How long does it run for?

Oh yes better than nothing, but the glaring difference is the filled in centre door/window on the end.

The biggest issue with TSW is that to some extent it’s getting like the BBC, repeating the same type of content, awash with similar routes and...

The 484’s are also a bit off in appearance to the D stock which in any event wouldn’t have appeared on the H&C line. Prior to the S stock, these...

Happy to oblige! However DTG (and Mattel) must realise this could impact initial sales levels on what is essentially a niche within a niche as I...

Yes that is my one abiding thought. The remaster is brilliant, a masterpiece, but... still only the 36 miles of Paddington to Reading. I just...

Anything more than about 8% of the PBC travel and it puts you through the windscreen. That can't be right and also makes it impossible to feather...

Apart from the over effective brakes which DTG still can't get round to fixing.

This must be the weekend popcorn thread!

It was certainly common for some older UK traction units to be fitted with overspeed trips, though those would only kick in if the train was under...

Also needs Matt P or whoever is in charge of such matters, to review whether an AI SPAD should terminate the player run, particularly if on a...

Yes as much as I love what Liam has done with GWE, he should have had some support from the top at the least in terms of getting a 165 in there...

Or Spirit Of Steam. Where it took Matt P himself a year to track down the cause and arrange for it to be fixed.

Yes it will be like those unrealistic scenarios on PFR or ECML where you had to speak to Emily whatshername or take operational railway...

Could this be the case of another service elsewhere on the route having a SPAD but terminates the player run as a result?

Yes indeed. Viewliners, Superliners, their version of the F40, the Genesis locos etc. Yes some would only see once a day usage on the routes but a...

I can only compare between my potato PC and PS5. Both have issues, the main thing being stutters and sound distortion. It is very much route...

Slightly OT but I remember flying over where Chernobyl and Pripyat should be in FS 2020 and the area was just a blank texture.

It was kind of a strange decision on the OG route, to depict west of Stockley Jn in various states of pre electrification. A snapshot of the route...

That may be so, but I get the impression DTG are very cautious about going down even that road. Otherwise by now we might well have seen the...

Well it would have been nice. I never actually finished the original or DLOGW Journey mode, believe it or not, but to do so now means loading into...

Yes, it will be dragging me off SimRail for a few sessions.

DTG (Matt P) have actually stated there are no licensing issues with SNCF, they just don’t seem uninterested in doing a French route. The ones...

Could be Windows Update running in the background. That does sap a lot of resources and in the case of TSW has occasionally prevented it from...

One (constructive) suggestion... It's a great shame the remaster and new timetable didn't get its own Journey Mode. I'm guessing the only way to...

Now doing a stopper up from Reading to Paddington, lovely. Am I correct in thinking the 166 got updated sounds? Certainly seems that way to my...

Via Bescot?

There's also an official thread in the Feedback forum too!

Okay... To me £25 for Standard and £30 for Deluxe would be a better starting point, particularly for grizzled old curmudgeons like me to come off...

That could be a catalyst to get me to part with my money.

Yes it's nicely done. Have put some general comments in the main forum thread. One or two to mention here - first as I noted Reading station...

My word, it’s brilliant isn’t it. Yes some of the layers are more representative but by god the route is alive with trains. Just done a HST run...

On that theme another niggle is no heavy trucks on US roads and freeways. You get a few static models parked up here and there but nothing moving...

Re the Class 124's... They were fitted with 230hp Leyland Albion diesel engines same as the Class 115's out of Marylebone. Some of those have been...

Superb. Let the thrash begin, well after tea.

Can anyone confirm you can now run the HST’s with cab doors ajar, to admit the thrash?

Not to mention the amount of tunnels that would need light baking, it’s ATO with platform screen doors and while the 345’s look smart they are...

Allegedly Mark Hopwood (GW MD) has conceded the current IET seats are unfit for purpose and there are plans to refurbish. Mind the creamy canvas...
