Not invisible on the map, which you seem reluctant to use. We!!, I think we're all barking at the moon, here, so I'll wait until I get to that...

So you don't use the map to set your switches? That's admirable. Wish I had that kind of energy!;) Seriously though, setting your switches isn't...

Well, changing switches on a map is, in itself, totally unrealistic, but we all do it, just like we fly around peeking into the cabs of MU and DPU...

Did you check the 2D map which presumably shows the path to the objective? I frequently look to make sure all the switches are set correctly....

I think road junctions must be difficult to model, because this kind of error is fairly common in both TSW and TS. They're not game breakers but I...

Didn't notice that. I always turn them both on at the fuse box when I get in the cab.

Yes that's true, but it doesn't seem to make any difference once the engine cranks up. Just an idiosyncracy, I guess. Anyone know the process in...

Well, support for RD is missing for Preserved Collection locos, but it's in production on the Roadmap, so the GWE locos wil come on line at some...

I agree. There should be greater tolerance. There are a couple of these on SPG you have to inch towards, as I recall. It doesn't make sense that...

Well, that's very impressive. I have a pretty decent PC but I don't expect those frame rates. Maybe I'm backing the wrong horse.

Very nice review, breblimator. And I was very impressed with Matt's stream this afternoon. I haven't played the route yet, it just downloaded. But...

If you access the 2d map, it should be clearly indicated where the switches are set towards the objective and you can change them if necessary.

The notion of a loco dlc for Clinchfield has been discussed a lot on the forums during the run-up to release. Everything from CRR Geeps to CSX...

You're a champion, sir! Thanks. By the way, how is RD performing on CRR in general. Any funky things?

Well, actually, I found Sam's talk on the licensing question very informative. But, look, you're obviously very serious about this and I'm just...

I would suggest tuning into the stream when I'm sure Matt will go over the controls as he did last week.

Whose time? I've watched every roadmap stream since whenever and I've yet to see Sam, in particular, waste any time on irrelevant questions or...

Is such a "big brother" attitude really necessary? Let people ask whatever they wish. There are moderators in the chat room and the stream hosts...

SBD 8970 is indeed exCRR 3612.

Yes, the 3612 was put into service on the CRR in late 1972 and shows up in black livery. It was transferred to Seaboard in January, 1983 with the...

Midnight your time, I believe.

We fans of American rail have been waiting sooooo long for a new route, and this one has been hovering on the horizon forever, it seems. It would...

Anyone care to guess why these on-again, off-again problems are platform specific. I'll run some services later today on PC to double check for...

I just ran a service on SPG with an SD40-2 MU. When the grade switched after sand patch tunnel, I engaged the dynamic brake and....Nothing!...

I see. One more question. If they fix a locomotive, does that also require the entire route to be downloaded since locos are intrinsic to a...

OK, so just so I have this straight. These routes which are being fixed have to be redownloaded in their entirety? Do we understand why, because...

I must admit I too am having a hard time understanding the relationship ( if there is one) between the streams, the roadmap and the updates. I was...

I have two rules. 1. Keep all games on their own internal drive. 2. Keep all games on a different drive from your Windows installation.

That's exactly what I've always done when held up by a red light. On a single track road, it should happen if, for instance, you are late or too...

The 101 is becoming one of my favorite trains to drive!! Amazing because I spend most of my time on American freight. But the Raildriver makes it...

You can see the prime mover and other components, but it looks a bit skeletal. And I don't see any cab access. Don't want visitors trying to climb up?

Ah, OK thanks for the correction.

Yes, and, of course, the greater power was why CSX eventually switched to AC locos (AC4400CW and SD70 and 80MAC) almost exclusively, for coal...

Good find. And what were the 2 pushers? In game, they would have to be SD's, I guess, but in reality, probably a couple of Geeps?

I'm not sure but I think that by 1992-3, the C30-7's were pretty much replaced by Dash 8's. I suppose there might have been some still hanging...

I know we're all looking forward to the F7, and I'm no exception. But the CRR had a very diverse roster and I still wish we were getting at least...

I've been doing this very thing for years. I also ask Santa and other close friends and relatives to give me Steam cards for Christmas and...

Yes, that is a standout feature of the TSW version. Apart from the Haysi branch, the TS edition, though very good, was pretty much a straight run...

Yes, I have the same headphones, the wired version. I also have high end speakers. I made the choice to go with the headphones for TSW2, so I...

Well, as you toned down your initial post and your second is a reasonable one, I say fair enough, let's wait and see. By the way, being delayed by...

Do you have anything positive to say or do you always assume the worst? The route hasn't even seen the light of day and you're already trashing...

Sounds like a connection or electrical problem. I disconnected my subwoofer after a short time because I didn't think it really added anything to...

There's also the Hiawatha service, which has 5 stops between downtown Chicago and downtown Milwaukee. First stop is Glenview, about 22 miles from...

Do you mean a "General Discussion" forum like they have next door (in TS202X)? Might be a good idea because, right now, if someone has a question,...

So we have the transition lever, the MU valve, the unit selector and the dynamic brake, all of which are modeled in some fashion. We can be quite...

Thanks, that's exactly what I meant. Unfortunately, I'm American, so English isn't my first language.:)

The EMD manual does say that manual transition must be used in the lead loco unless all of the trails are automatic. However, my understanding of...

I don't think it was ever a problem to lash up any EMD locos, including mixing F7's and F3's, for instance. There must have been a way for, say, a...

I believe the F7 had auto transition series- parallel, though earlier F units had manual controls. Somehow, it was possible to lash different...

Hallelujah!
