Heads up for anyone who was waiting for 1800 on Steam, already gone live.
I think the biggest problem with Tyne Valley - which I would still love to see in BR era - is the relatively sparse train service in the 80’s....
Yes I think so. Already banked an extra £10 on my Steam wallet earlier (don’t tell my wife!) and the initial reports seem largely favourable. Plus...
Used to get that a lot on the Waterloo to Exeter route, with the Salisbury drivers using the straight air brake rather than the train brake. So...
That’s strange then because it looked like they were both driving the same service, the one to Derby that starts by crawling out of Leicester at 5...
Noticed that on Tony’s stream but I switched to British Ace and they seemed to be working. Maybe a breaker needs setting in the cab?
Wonder why it hasn’t been setup to sub on ECML Peterborough to Doncaster, that would give some nice long jobs to get stuck into.
Suggested many times before but so far neither DTG nor a 3P have risen to the task. From my POV it would have to be JT and the 80’s with a Class...
We could probably do with Part 2 of the Rhine Valley from Koln to Koblenz which would also link on to Koln - Aachen.
It will be be 1800/6pm on Steam so look forward to hearing your initial impressions if you get it.
Basically what we have to do with the 45 and 47 on NTP when you just need to feather a bit of speed off. Kind of ironic that over in JT land we...
Hear, hear. A Class 120 farting away from the stations on the stoppers or a Warship (or Class 50), thundering up the banks on a heavy summer...
I’d swap that though for REP’s, TC’s and a 33/1 plus VEP’s on the stoppers. Deluxe train would then be a SUB or EPB for the inner suburban...
It would be no different than any other “new” train included with a route. JT had to make their Class 87 and various Mark Three coaches for Shap,...
Makes you wonder what has gone on internally, though. Have they all gone on strike or a work to rule or something? Very odd and the public...
Same here, the 25 far more versatile on the classic routes we have, could just about pop up on NTP and TVL.
Don't think this has actually gone live still for October. Just fired up the game and all that's shown in the Mastery section is the old route...
Good point. I can't understand why they are proving such an issue when BPO and Shap have them on all the schedules. Hopefully they will be present...
Hear, hear. That might have sweetened the deal a bit re the route length and laid the ground for further 1980 -1987 routes where these were still...
Correct Bm 232. Think they only started putting fabric seats in with the 235’s but even they still used the same half back design, as shown in...
I’m sure they would! Oh well, guess the only way to see if that’s what they meant is to give it a test later.
This will require a very caveat emptor approach, in just about every respect.
Just wondered, did the stream answer exactly what they fixed/improved with the save game as this was specifically mentioned in the article? I’ve...
They do actually pop up on Paddington to Cardiff services, so a new bit of GWML from Reading covering that section, or even Reading to Bristol via...
Sadly in the UK the butter season is coming to an end as the temperatures cool and the stuff is too rock hard to spread on your bread at breakfast...
Sometimes there would be seasonal challenges,such as doing timetable runs in rain or snowy/low temperature conditions. Not my particular cup of...
Just watched the stream and verdict somewhat out on this. Externally and internally it looks lovely, obviously a great deal of care gone into it....
There does seem a singular lack of imagination, makes me wonder if come the New Year they will quietly also ditch this Mastery. Crazy thing is,...
Sorry for ping Maik Goltz but any chance of some interior shots of the UIC coaches? As you know I have a long standing fetish for those hard,...
I certainly enjoyed the TSC version. The sounds reminded me of the old BR Class 310 (AM10) EMU’s that used to operate the Euston outer suburban...
I agree that what we’re getting looks superb but purely from my personal point of view I am still not sure whether this will justify a full price...
Will have to disagree. Having watched both the original Railscene cab ride from a Class 108 and the more recent Videoscene one from a Class 47...
Does reference to the save game mean you have finally fixed the long standing issue with chained runs not resuming correctly?
Main event for me has to be the TSG steam route, everything else is secondary. Dutch route looks okay but a bit squeaky clean, though appreciate...
It would have been even more stunning if it carried on to Barrow. The run will end just as it starts to get interesting.
Often requested but the closest we got was random signal delays which never seem to occur anyway. The biggest issue probably the inability of the...
Nice to see DTG QA living up to their full potential. Despite the good points think I’ll stick with waiting until this is 80% off, particularly as...
JT Preston to Carlisle. You get a long, fairly scenic route plus the challenge of driving a traditional UK AC electric tap changer loco.
It will be done when it’s done, but sadly a real chance it may end up suffering from the same release fatigue as happened with Tadami. While it’s...
Not compared to the lack of a 56 and 60 (or a 25, 26, 50 or 55). 57 just a re-engined Duff that will sound like every other GM out there… :)
The solution is simple! Wean yourself off the game and don’t feel obliged to buy every single piece of content on Day One, if at all. There’s now...
Not forgetting, “Passed to engineering.” Hasn’t the author now gone back to doing stuff for Transport Fever 3? Sadly still only interested in...
Very low expectations. I doubt we will see Carlisle to Whitehaven (which should have been Carlisle to Barrow) or the TSG steam route, this side...
Try running routes like the Tokyo one from UW in TSC. It makes TSW look as smooth as melted butter! TSC also prone to crashing with out of memory...
The excuses from DTG have worn thin on this one. Every other train game manages it. Sadly just as with other long standing core issues, it seems...
Happy to please! Though TBH at present I’m just hopelessly addicted to openOMSI. Being able to properly thrash those Enviro 200’s and 400’s with...
Indeed. Too many copy and paste style German routes in the game. We need something different, decent hilly or mountain scenery, non electrified,...
And it’s not just console users. Those of us with older PC’s are seeing many of the features introduced for TSW7 aimed at those with high end RTX...
Looking at the Thomas images also brings to mind, yet again DTG launch a spin off and pretty much forget about it. By now Wonders Of Sodor should...
I did notice the lack of activity in the formal feedback thread. Normally those are buzzing the first two or three weeks. Would be funny if it...
