Im not surprised the MTA is being real hush hush with their LIRR diesels. They were lemons when they first arrived. So many issues. So many...
Wait.... How do you spawn on foot??
I've lived out in Rockaway for 30 years. I've also been a conductor on that very line. It's a great view. The section between JFK and Broad...
Hempstead branch third track? You mean Main Line third track, from Floral Park to Hicksville along with the accompanied grade crossing...
Nostrand Ave isnt the only station that's changed. Both Forest Hills and Kew Gardens got platform extensions to fit 6 cars. And that was before...
You switch on ATC with the circuit breaker behind and above the engineer's seat. It's off by default.
Sometimes trains do get stuck behind slower ones like that. Usually when there's a delay. But in this game, well, I've stuck behind a hempstead...
Given how busy Penn is IRL, I wouldn't be surprised for that tunnel to be used for eastbound during PM Peak if let's say, a Pt Wash leaves...
Base PS4, I have installed: München-Augsburg IoW E. Coastway Peninsula Long Island Rapid Transit GWE
True. There's a switch on the east side of Harold that Will let you switch to the westbound express track since the do sometimes use that as a...
It also makes Train 745 Hempstead-Penn unfinishable unless you run four or more minutes late leaving Jamaica.
2024 is my favorite trip. It's an eastbound express that uses the westbound express track through Queens (east river tunnel to Jamaica). Normally,...
I believe tou mean LZB. AfB os basically cruise control since it's used in PZB or woth nothing on to make sure you don't overspeed. And in LZB,...
What about changing the destination signs?
You know you have the option of just opening the first four cars, right? Wish they had a way to make that possible in LIRR. (Without having to...
Former conductor here When it comes to the L, Train Operators are actually only required to manually operate during one trip of their job ( most...
I say NY-Philly. The Connecticut section up to NH has a speed limit of what, 90? The old nec section has no stops. If they add NY-Philly, you...
I noticed that in the scenario ICE Trouble, the passenger lights are off. How do you turn them on?
Just as the title suggests, it would be a whole lot easier to allow for trains to arrive on any of the tracks in a given station. Especially in...
So I built a scenario starting at Hicksville using an M7 12-car (Loaded) and when I began the scenario, it gave me an M3. So I backed out of...
Don't forget as loco hauled consists may be easier to add cars, they take longer to relay. Plus, most commuter railroads operate push-pull. Thr...
You're right. 32 miles for the A vs 27 for the F. Cost and needed space for future CBTC equipment. I was an intern in the late 90s at NYCT....
Idk. It only goes 150 for what, 20 mins? Meanwhile, "the Raceway" (new Brunswick to Trenton) is a nice stretch of straightaway for a constant...
It's long. But not the longest. That I believe is the F NYCT designs their trains in house (New Car Engineering is the department). Bombardier...
I've had it worse on an R42. Had one on the J that was a constant pour. Good thing I could step out the cab in-between stops (C/R)
Ah. The ol' R32. I rate it a workhorse! But they need to retire already.
As far as what route, well, I do want the A. Bit the whole route is about 1:45 (Inwood to Far Rock) and about 1:20-ish Inwood to Lefferts. For a...
I would indeed like to see them do an NYC Subway route. I'm satisfied with LIRR and I ride it frequently. And as a former NYC subway conductor,...
I also agree. It's not a bug. Welcome to ATC on the LIRR. Here's the best bet: Always go the lower speed of the two. Get a feel for what limits...
Thats the thing. In TSW2020, the brake pipe was fully operable the whole time. The moment you apply brakes at any speed, the Gauge showed it.
So you're saying what they did was fix it? That may explain why it feels like it takes a little longer to come to a stop in tsw2. Thanks for the...
Both the analog and TOD gauges for the brake pipe won't work unless you are traveling under 6mph on the M7. Kinda need that if operating with no hud.
I notices that the propulsion sounds are basically muted in the scenarios. The timetable trips seem to be fine.
You have to select livery, which in the LIRRs case, is consist length. About half the mainline trips are 8 car and the other 10 car, Atlantic...
So after a few trips, here's what I see: Engine sounds for the M7 during scenarios are practically non existent as mentioned above, but in...
Anyone been to Atlantic terminal during rain yet? Does it still rain in the station?
One thing I did notice(I literally just started LIRR in TSW2) is when eastbound trains leave Hicksville, they no longer go up the Port Jefferson...
At the moment it's just R46 and R160 cars. The 32s are in east ny while the 179s are still oos.
I know for a fact that on the L, it's automated but the operator. Just operate at least one trip manually. Are you a train op?
Reminding that the 7 has cbtc brings up a good point that I remember Matt mentioning in a stream. The reason they chose the bakerloo is because of...
Lay-up and relay. Nice
I would just love brighter headlights. Ive spoken to people in London (one is actually a train driver on the underground) and they've stated that...
Stop short of the barrier, climb down walk past the barrier then climb back up. Thats how ive been able to fix monitors.
Heres a little tidbit: There's less speed limit signs in the system as most would assume. No speed limit sign? Well then "wrap it around"! I...
I'd be happy with what they originally had in TS '13-Philly to NY. Think about it. For future add-ons, they can add NJT and SEPTA into the mix....
The stated that because it was one of their first routes, it's architecture was no where near compatible for preservation. This is why we aren't...
The Sony Gold and Platinum headsets both use it's own Bluetooth dongle the exact same way.
This is weird. I literally played this intro a few hours ago and thought for a few minutes and changed to classic. Yes, it was during the...
Who said they haven't fixed it with the preserved release? They are not gonna post visual bug fixes in the road map, just the operational bugs....
I think they meant operation-wise. Not "what's back there. Now given a quick look at an underground map, I see this is the literal end of thr...
