This is certainly not a definitive answer but I do all that by having the automatic fireman on (in the gameplay settings). It has to be said that...

You might mention your current system's spec's but if it runs TSW well it should be able to cope with TS.

I hadn't noticed that but then I don't drive steam very often though it's nice to have for variety. I've certainly got some steam DLC where the...

Another dumb question (these are beginner level questions so far but the impression is that you're new to driving steam). Are you adjusting the...

Also, once you get going, are you moving the brakes up to the "running" position? I'm not up to much when it comes to kettles but I understand...

A route won't show up under the Career, Standard or FreeRoam tabs unless you have scenarios for it that can be listed there. If you are sure it...

There was an update recently meaning in the last few days and then another one yesterday. Dunno what they were because I only noticed them after...

I'd've thought Clayton would go to some lengths to avoid reminding people about their previous attempt at loco' building.

Just that. Once you've got everything set up you don't have to be on line to run TS but the Steam client does have to be running- if it isn't and...

Oh? I didn't get all the freebies at the time (I got started with TS2016) or as updates but I only had to ask Dovetail for them.

No- after TS2016 was released there was a series of good giveaways called TS Rewards that came out for the core routes. They've all been added to...

There's also the X-Box game bar built in to Windows. You can bring it up for with Windows+G to set paths and so on and start and stop recording...

I bought TSW when I thought it was getting interesting and wanted to support its development and then, just as the refund window closed, TSW2 came...

I've seen mention of a merge of WCML North and WCML Over Shap both of which are good routes in their own right. They have a '70s/'80s setting as...

A correction. The S&DR was built with locomotives in mind and operated them from day one, along the main line east of Shildon at least, on the...

Oh agreed- much better to see one hooning along a main line than pootling about on a preserved railway. I thought it worth mentioning the WSR...

They've been in preservation around twice as long as their revenue earning careers- surely there have been Deltics on the West Somerset Railway?...

I'm not sure about temporary though they were certainly not expected to run for as long as they did (like most British trains it must be said)....

I think someone suggested this a while ago- a self contained attractive looking narrow gauge system IIRC which looked like it would make a good route.

Not familiar with this unit but is there a master key? Manuals for most DLC can be found linked in their Store page and for those you own should...

I've never used the Workshop tab to look for items- the way it lumps everything into one big list just annoys me. You can just look though the...

There is a dodge in TS which lets you get around missing dependencies. When the scenario starts you get the menu screen saying "can't load...

The Deltics are bulky but surprisingly light especially for a 3,300HP loco'- just shy of 100 tons IIRC or just over 100 tonnes.

No idea why you can't see them listed under the Career, Standard and FreeRoam tabs as appropriate. Come to think of it I have a few scenarios...

Off topic I'd've thought but there are file recovery tools some with free versions. Google will list several. Pick one and use it as soon as...

Am I right in thinking that the Deltic engines were used to power the pumps? I heard that someone acquired some engines from a US fire department...

Oh go on then: [MEDIA] Best bits are at 1'30", 5', 7'30", 11'50" and 18' (IMHO of course).

A lot of good recommendations here. I'd especially second those for Weardale and Teesdale which has been my favourite route since I got into TS...

This would be of historic interest covering as it does the route of the original Stockton and Darlington Railway main line- the first modern...

Pardon me for asking the obvious question but I don't see mention of this: there's a brightness slider in the settings- have you tried fiddling...

In Britain an episode of the Channel 5 show World's Most Scenic Railway Journeys was made in Norway and devoted some time to the Flåm line. It...

[MEDIA]

Steam has to be running in the background to be able to run either version of TS. You can get around the click-Play-in-Steam-then-choose-which...

The scoring does often seem arbitrary and in no few instances it is impossible to gain the full thousand points. I get the impression (as with...

There can be a delay between buying something on Steam and it downloading. If you haven't got it or seen it start downloading yet have you at...

Granted but I think my point remains valid even if you get a bit fussier about the phrasing. If you've paid to use the software legitimately why...

This seems very much akin to the argument-that-shouldn't-be-an-argument going on about right to repair. Did you buy the damn game or not? If you...

It's unlikely that driving trailers built specifically for use with Classes 121 and 122 would have gangway connections because there'd be nothing...

There are a couple of small fireless loco's in preservation near me- one is on display at Locomotion in Shildon. Note that they have the...

Shop around for Steam keys for older editions of TS. I got started with TS2016 (which includes Sherman Hill) and bought TS2019 (Soldier Summit...

Third rails can show your progress on a map and includes a speedometer. I have it set up with Spacedesk as described in the video linked in this...

Just had this listed by YouTube and, if I'm not mistaken, there's a slipped coach about 20 seconds in: [MEDIA] It looks as if the loco' has...

Like that. At first glance it looks like the APT-P cab.

The last BR shunting horse worked at Newmarket appropriately and retired when the station closed in the '60s. His name was Charlie IIRC.

Each coach also needed a member of staff aboard to control it adding to operational expense. Hmm... A good bit of that "unknown copyright"...

Lots of concerns here but one point has been overlooked- none of the scenery looks anything like Lincolnshire and the trains are all foreign.

Ah yep- should've looked at that.

On reflection I agree- my point was incompletely made. It seem's there's a graphics card with that name:...

That was my point- the real requirements for TS itself haven't really changed that much but the development of DLC with greater detail pushes...

Newer more detailed DLC are noticeably harder work for most systems. I'd suggest OP would do better to buy an older edition of TS that wouldn't...
