Playing more TSC than TSW at present, certainly some elements of the latter would be nice in the former. Mainly I would say the ability to plan an...
Thanks Trev. I already bought the Black Fives from Steam yesterday so think I’m sated for a while now. Lovely locos, charging double headed up the...
For £25 a shout for most of the route DLC, they should be doing better. Mention was made the other day of the "Dovetail Flywheel" when it comes to...
I believe it was an AI Royal Scot. As Bossman have one in their TSC collection (on my shopping list!) wouldn’t be too surprised to see it pop up...
TS1 or rather TSC as it’s now known, sound is far superior to TSW in just about every way. I took the Bossman Jubilee for a run down my Raquette...
Getting my TSC install back up to speed, installing the Kyle Line which I originally purchased direct from Just Trains. However the route has...
Well then they really need to address that before taking TSW any further forward. One could argue an ambitious project like SoS where it was known...
As I mused in another thread, this is a concept that should have been worked on alongside the main SOS for the key UK routes. Sadly it looks like...
The lack of enhanced movement sounds is only surpassed by DTG’s abject silence on the matter.
If it's similar to the Bossman TSC LMS loco's, you return the brake lever to "off" to lap. You then need to adjust the small ejector to balance...
Yes the one thing that might persuade me to buy this (aside from the massive list of bugfixes) would be official layers, additional services or...
I am getting the definite vibe this needed another month or three of work. Until at least some of the sound issues are fixed, I won't even...
This makes me feel better about refunding earlier. Currently having my own Spirit Of Steam with the Bossman Clan Line on the original Somerset &...
Initially I have plumped for Clan Line. Wow, she is a beauty alright. Gave her an outing on the S&D and a treat to look at, listen to and drive....
As I remarked in my TSC thread, had the pleasure of being hauled behind it ex Swindon Works in 1984. Glorious machine.
Noted but once SOS refund processes will have £45 sitting on my Steam account which will set me up nicely with Clan Line and The Marches. Or I...
Well as of the moment I’ve refunded it (again) think it best to wait until the bugs are ironed out and the missing bits like no track sound added...
Why start a new thread when there are several running already? Anyhow if you’re in the UK on Steam, ETA is 1800 this evening.
Clarification appreciated and will take under advisement. However Clan Line and the Marches is looking very attractive at present…
IIRC the Class 206’s were formed with a surplus Hastings driving motor and saloon car then an EPB driving trailer on the other end, hence the...
I used to call that the "Microsoft Anvil" as that's what it sounded like. Well on the basis of what's being posted so far plus the jackhammer bug...
ISTR if it is the Kuju sound I'm thinking it was anything but realistic, sounded more like a rusty hinge being scraped across a blackboard than...
H'mmm. Beginning to wonder if I should divert the money back to TSC, get the Marches and Clan Line! (Or NWC and the Royal Scot).
Do you mean that occasional squeaking clank that MSTS locos used to emit? It got quite annoying after a while.

I've just been told I need to fix the fence... Back OT the download is probably the core updates as SoS will probably go live at 1800 in the UK,...
Indeed which is why it surprised me. After mastering the driving controls, next step will be to go manual on the firing though there will be the...
Well I must admit it’s going to be a dilemma to drag myself away from the 8F on the delightful Port Road in TSC to do the dreary drive from Crewe...
I take it not impressed by what you saw, then?
I suspect that will be what a lot of people will do. Personally I want to thrash the Jubilee out of St Pancras through the HS1 tunnels to Ebbsfleet!
I figured something like that. Also in truth we are not talking MSFS or Witcher size installs here. Most people with a half decent internet...
One quick follow up question? Is there a way to overcome what appears to be a minimum boiler pressure cap, seems to be around 142psi? This means...
Being retired every day is a holiday… Except when the wife has jobs for me!
I still think the Northern Line, set back a few years when the 1972 or even 1959 stock was operating the route would be a nice shout. Good network...
I think you need to post a little more about the route itself. I’m assuming Los Angeles up towards Seattle but you’re going to have to nominate a...
Era should not be a barrier to a historical route. I mean in recent times we’ve had two TV series (Vikings and The Last Kingdom) which attempt to...
Steam release is normally 1800 in the UK, so I’ll be finishing up my Bossman 8F run on Port Road while waiting for the download. Always said it’s...
Good shout, I’ll add it to my wishlist. However North Wales Coast is another route I need to add in my collection. Next few days will see the...
Well it will be interesting to see with the goods trains, whether the HUD displays the maximum train speed or maximum line speed. Ideally it...
Found this on RM Web, might help: Class C (fully fitted) - up to 60 mph. Loco with driving wheels over 5', can be passenger loco. Class D -(part...
Of course, the further you go back the less people will be around to challenge the detail, or lack of it. Already with SoS1 route, you would...
I slightly understand steamylocoman's sentiments as I struggled at first, in fact I refunded the 8F on the first occasion I bought it. However...
Well personally I'm having a blast with the 8F across Port Road in TSC at present. Some lovely scenery, plenty of gradients to keep you on your...
Now thoroughly getting into the 8F and Jubilee, eyeing up which of the rest of the bunch I should buy next... Clan Line/Merchant Navy looks...
:D:D
I was thinking Spirit Of Steam 2... Merchant Navy and West Country Pacifics with either: Salisbury to Yeovil or Yeovil to Exeter (for Honiton...
Will brake application be the same as on the TSC version. i.e. small ejector on very slightly to prevent loss of vacuum, brake handle has to be...
Only TVL and NTP are what could be regarded as historic. WSR doesn’t really count as it’s a preserved line and I don’t count WCL as it’s a dog’s...
Personally I have always considered AP stuff a bit over-rated. I certainly don’t think Wherry Lines was worth what they charged for it on first...
Not everyone likes soulless push to go/stop modern trains. There was more variety and interest 20 or 40 years ago. :love:
