It will be interesting to see what the new UK loco DLC is. We still haven't got the two most popular UK diesels - the Deltic and the Hoover so my...
Rivet shouldn't be allowed to release their own wind until they fix the disgraceful state of existing DLCs. I'm also a little disappointed that...
Sorry (brain fade moment) yes of course I meant 100per cent open to draw air through the fire and increase heat to aid steam production.
One important point to note is that dampers should usually be set to 100 per cent closed when the loco is working hard. The controls are at the...
Yes it happens in several places. Collision detection is clearly not finished - like just about everything else in this DLC.
Crewe is a mess AI trains aren't loading correctly causing crashes and SPADs.
One of the first duties of the 40s in 1958 was on express passenger services on the WCML. There is even a photograph of one on the Merseyside...
The interiors weren`t changed all that much at all. I worked on one briefly in preservation. Lighting and seat covers were changed. Some had...
There were certainly 101s at Crewe briefly in the summer of 1958.. I would be amazed if they weren't run on the the WCML or to Liverpool at least...
They don't need to fill out the timetable with historically inaccurate trains. The 40 is a dual purpose locomotive and operated on the route from...
It is potentially an excellent route but it's in alpha at the moment. I'm just fed up with software developers charging people to test their...
It is a mess because they haven't timetabled class 2 passenger services between Liverpool and Crewe or locals to Manchester and Preston. These...
The live stream tonight was unintentionally funny. Matt said there wasn't much scenery on the southern section. Yes, that's because you didn't...
What worries me is that after every bug is reported it seems DTG helpfully post that the bug is known. Well if you know it's this riddled with...
Scenario editor is very buggy. Lots of false SPADs at Crewe and coming out of Lime Streets. AI trains don't load properly at some platforms at...
Thanks for the reply. As a railway modeller I tend to spot these things! They really are quite jarring as incorrect dress often stands as much as...
Oddly the fireman is there in timetable mode (Although he is a she and bizarrely she is wearing jeans rather than overalls. We also have female...
I'm enjoying the driving but frame rates in large yards are terrible despite simplified scenery and almost no AI trains on PS4. Maybe they...
On th semaphore training there is no fireman! So steam drops off rapidly! Does anyone test these things???
Game load time is now VERY slow - just to get to routes menu. On PS4.
The Liverpool and Manchester railway in the 1830s would be a lot of fun. We actually know a lot about how it looked from maps, plans and drawings...
Driving wheel size wasn't always a good indicator of operational speed or speed limit. Standard nines had 5' drivers and were often seen on slow...
The route doesn't look great but driving a steam railtour over the Pennines, through Cornwall or down to Brighton should be fun.
Much as I am looking forward to steam this is a dreary route to choose in an unattractive part of the country ( yes, I used to live near the...
DTG need to grow a pair and stop any more DLC from this company until they meet minimum standards and fix broken releases. The behaviour of Rivet...
Never understood why they didn't update the Great Western Diesel Legends DLC to provide an early 1970s timetable for this route. All the key locos...
Does coal consumption influence the medal you get at the end of the run? In the real world railways kept very detailed records of coal consumption...
Some of the missing content just looks lazy. How long would it take to put in fences and appropriate vegetation? In Auran Trainz I reckon I...
A DLC pack that put a steam transition timetable on Trans Pennine with green 40s, 45s and 101s wouldn't be the worst idea. Getting an 8F with a...
If you look carefully the bridge is too narrow that's why it looks oddly out of proportion.
Egypt Nile valley route with Class 66s on passenger. Great trains and scenery and a nice place for DTG staff to holiday!
Sometimes showing the past as it really was helps educate people about past injustices and evils - and helps youngsters realise how much progress...
I think people forget what a physically demanding job being a fireman was. How many men today could shovel coal for more than eight hours, let...
I can cope with female fireman (it's ahistorical PC nonsense but it's the world we live in). I can't cope with watching a Fireman shovelling...
My own view is that they would have been better to choose a non electrified main line in the mid 60s so you could run steam and the existing...
Don't know why they didn't do a main line with fewer services at a slightly latter date so the whole thing doesn't look so empty... The GCR in...
