I would rather see a Jinty than a diesel shunter for shunting, although on release I wouldn't mind seeing an 08 doing the shunting duties just as...
Ah thanks for that the loco looks quite smart too. So how old are those carriages? It would be great to have those and a decent length suitable...
I like those carriages in the first screenshot. Would love a route to run those on.
They have just put something on the roadmap about fixing the red signal issues so hopefully it might be resolved soon.
Hello, I know some of the class 166 services are causing problems, it may be one of those. I have had them get stuck at Redhill. One going to...
Looks very good from the screenshots supplied. Does seem rather short though. If it is highly detailed it might be worth a look despite the length.
It would be great if it was coming to TSW, I will certainly be getting it for TS1. I wonder why they would bother mentioning it and UE4 in the...
Presumably most of the services will go "off map" at Crewe. It might be that when you start a timetable service, where it is on the route, the...
It was actually the class 201's which were used on the Hastings line, they were six coach units.
If it had failed we wouldn't be here talking about it! Despite its faults my experience with it, and TS1 incidentally, are overwhelmingly...
Personally I would rather they include an 08 to do the shunting/yard work rather than leaving it to one of the two included steam engines as that...
Class 08 shunters were very much part of the railway scene by 1958 and the LMS had been using them since the 1930's so I wouldn't see the harm in...
It wasn't generally done like that. They would have had a station pilot for moving carriages and any parcels vans etc around the large stations....
Wasn't ECW semaphore signalled when slam door stock was withdrawn?
Well yes there are plenty more routes. Waterloo to Reading/Windsor with the Hounslow loop maybe or the west coastway or one of the mainlines out...
We have many modern third rail routes though, something from the past would make a change. Slam door EMU's are much more fun to drive too and...
Twas ever thus!
That is the frustrating thing about TSW routes some of them just don't seem complete. Most of the passenger services on TVL start at Bishop...
I was intially basing my thoughts about an extra timetable if they were adding any diesel layers or reliveried diesels into the base package. But...
Yes there were three of those designed by Bullied for the Southern railway but ended up on the LMR in the 1950's. They could be an interesting...
Well in 1958 diesels would have been still very much in the minority. DMU's were just arriving in the area and apart from shunters most diesel...
I would love to see a Jinty used, I would prefer it if any diesel loco's were in a separate combined timetable, but a class 08 is a perfectly...
In TS1 I regularly drive 2 hour scenarios, I probably would't want much longer than that. To me Euston to New Street is the ideal maximum length....
Well that depends on them and how much they want to make the route an immersive experience. Personally I don't expect anything extra on release,...
There would be a lot of possibilities for a class 08, station pilot duties for one, although I am not sure in reality in this period a class 08...
I think there were still some G5 0-4-4T's around in 1958, I wouldn't imagine J72 would have worked many branch line passenger services but I guess...
Yes I agree. Personally for me it helps immersion if one of the end points on the route is a end point in reality or maybe a crew change over...
I would like to see more complete routes, they don't necessarily have to be longer, although some longer ones would be nice. Two routes I would...
Yes likely. Isn't the replica being built around a class 37?
As much as I love diesels I think if we get any I would rather have a separate timetable layer so we can have an all steam timetable. As said in a...
Surely the fact that they have asked the question as to how we want to fixed delivered means they are trying to listen to us? And most of the bugs...
The class 101 wouldn't be prototypical although Crewe South had a few for a while but I don't think they worked the Liverpool services although...
We have quite a famous cat at our station. George the Stourbridge Junction cat has his own facebook page and is a twitter and instagram star! He...
LIRR is a case in point for me, as probably my favourite USA route. I haven't even got it installed at the moment as the sound bug is immersion...
What made them use AI simulated times for the timetables in the first place? A lot of the trains in AI mode accelerate like a scolded cat. For me...
I am sure there will be tutorial videos on youtube. If you use automatic fireman it isn't hard to get to know the basics. Mainly just the brakes...
Frankly I wish they hadn't. The stock they added isn't a realistic depiction of what would have been seen. Most of it is from the wrong era, the...
You would hope they are represented. They were a fundamental part of the railway scene up until the last 20 years. There is a lot of scope for...
Having just looked at the route on google earth it looks like a nice scenic route especially the bit alongside the lake. It isn't as "hilly" as I...
It seems an odd way of doing it. Why not just release those that are ready in the order of the longest period they have been waiting for the...
I don't understand what went wrong with the class 150 and I do hope it gets fixed as I will be more inclined to purchase WCL if it does. It should...
Well I am sure developing for a new sim is a learning curve, I suspect it will be an improvement over Arosa, which seems to be in a good state now...
I believe it is quite normal to disagree with someone who has a contrary opinion to yourself!
Was the only difference between the 08 and 09 gearing or something? I think the 09 had a slightly higher top speed. If so, and I don't know what I...
I think it is odd too. When it was announced SOS was the next British route I imagined it would be March/April time. If SOS releases in September...
I wouldn't have expected three, but hope some DLC won't be far behind. As pointed out though they are starting from scratch with steam and...
The black 5's had a slightly different boiler and a smaller firebox, and the two cylinders, although they weren't that much larger each than each...
I am certain you wouldn't have seen a Jinty working a local on a mainline route, especially 30 odd miles. Unlike the Pannier tank, Jinties weren't...
I would say so as far as steam was concerned. I have a copy of The Railway Observer from 1955 just after the modernisation plan had been announced...
