From personal experience, I can sign that. Years ago when they were in widespread use here, some drivers really showed a quite "hands-on" approach...
Same here. Don't get me wrong, I'd appreciate having those Dosto's in TSW, sure. But I agree that the effort would be better invested into...
I can't confirm it ingame right now since I'm at work, but I'm pretty sure they are incompatible. The n-Wagen uses the West German 36-pin KWS...
Perhaps performance could be fine, depending on how the city area is being built and programmed. I noticed that some German cities tend to be...
Very nice route with lots of diverse traffic! This is literally the box of chocolate with something for everyone: Regional trains, commuter...
This all but confirms TSW5, doesn't it? A bit pointless to announce "6 new addons" without really divulging any further information feels a little...
Ah, I misunderstood. My bad! That's a function I'd use too! A good workaround for the unmodeled engine compartment. Always having to get out of...
Hmm why not? Could come in handy :) Honestly I myself don't mind walking to the other end, gives me a little bit of immersion. What I really...
I've since done some research... it seems that in reality these services have been done with 648 DMU's, so both the 612 and 642 are actually...
Yes, that's a great idea too! This way, some minor delays could be reduced if passengers board/alight fast enough. Or if there are only 1-2 people...
The signalling system is indeed quite rare, it was an idea from the late 80's to reduce personnel on smaller, simpler side branches through...
Toyed with the thought of suggesting this for a while... finally gotta get this out of my system! Also, this is basically my home route since I...
One thing which continues to bug me is how passengers behave on the platform. Like not at all, that is. Issue Usual behaviour: Train arrives,...
Yep, that's the issue! :) First step should always be putting in the direction handle, since that "unlocks" the whole desk. The other actions can...
Really? I haven't played on BRO since the update, but that would make me sad. For the life of me I can't imagine how the 642 could possibly keep...
Ah yes, I totally overlooked the blue PS5 box in the headline :o Does this problem happen everytime you try to use the 628 or only on specific...
Hm, this is weird. I spent a lot of time on the 628 since it's my favourite, and never encountered this issue on any route. Not even once. On...
Indeed, that's one of my bigger issues about the route. I don't want to buy 1, 2 or 3 additional DLC's just to even be able to play properly,...
I've never encountered an AI 628 service ever, neither on the old timetable nor on the new. And I share the impression that with the new...
I think the word "mediocre" is indeed the best description for Maintalbahn. The route is pretty straightforward, literally. A no-frills...
On some German routes, there are stop marker signs too, usually a bunch for various train lengths. But not on all of them, by far. With some route...
I also have to disagree strongly on the "person on the tracks" notion. That doesn't belong in a sim like this. On the other hand, the idea of...
The current stopping system bugs me too, quite a bit actually. On passenger services, you often have to stop in unrealistic places, i.e. at the...
You dreamer... if true, this would be the next instant buy for me. This or an E94 :love: Being optimistic, I still hope for a V90. This one could...
Service EZK 54874 starting at 14:47 in Aschaffenburg Hafen is still broken, in the new timetable as well as in the old. Same issue: I'm prepping...
The gearbox "shifts" at 60 km/h and 100 km/h in fast gear, that's why the light comes up for a while at these speeds. Not sure if it's the same...
I'm gonna sign that. Maintalbahn surely has got a couple of signalling issues and the timetable can be a little tense and hard to keep up with,...
I encountered this too today, so it not just happens on PS5, but also on PC/Steam. The ICE definitely is following a path, but the signal seems to...
Discovered a small-ish bug with the exhaust. Took my 2x218 and 3 Dosto's to Miltenberg, decided to wait there and do the return trip as well....
You'll find both in cab #2 behind a panel in the back wall :)
One minor little thing: The glare shields on the indicator lights are not particularly good in doing their job. The lights are hard to see with...
My first impression, after testing the old lady on Maintalbahn: AMAZING :love: Overall, very well done, Maik Goltz and the TSG team! Perhaps...
Of course, I was exaggerating a little. :) But you're right, a period-accurate 218 and a 140 would do wonders to liven up that route. Large boost...
That's one of the main reasons why I enjoy Linke Rheinstrecke so much... we already have 155's hauling freight and 101's pulling white/red IC's on...
Probably true, which is a shame. The groundwork is already done, with the 110, so I presume getting a 140 into the game would be easier and...
Gotta agree here. While I always enjoy getting a new route (if it's done well), more diversity in rolling stock and liveries would really bring...
Of course longer routes would be nice. But something I'd actually prefer would be more branching lines. Adding such branches could add a lot of...
Indeed... a couple of years ago, there was a daily commuter train going from Kempten to München in the morning around 7:00, returning to Kempten...
Honestly, at first when I saw this, I wasn't too much into this idea. But the more I think about it, the more potential emerges. :) With 74 km...
Hi and welcome to the forum! Just a little friendly advice that the common language here is English ;) This could be an interesting route! It's...
Perhaps a compromise could be to concentrate on just a small amount of rolling stock, not the whole bandwith, but enough to properly populate the...
Looks very interesting! The scenery in this area really is beautiful. I've travelled the route only twice a couple of years ago, really enjoyed it...
Well, the roadmap pretty much dashed my hopes of seeing the 218 in widespread use on multiple routes, or at least for Hamburg-Lübeck to get an...
I'm usually not the one to bump my own route suggestions just because, but this is an exception... Over the course of the last week, parts of...
My most pressing questions have pretty much all been asked, but I'll sum them up quickly just for the sake of it :) -Except Hamburg-Lübeck, which...
That sounds lovely! :love: Don't get me wrong, each era has got its benefits. But when I look at the German content in TSW at its current state,...
Ah yes, I can remember both these combinations from my trips to the area around Verona, Bologna and Parma. Always enjoyed taking them... the...
Phew... that would be one heck of a map. Really sorry for having to play devil's advocate here, but... well. While I'd appreciate getting more...
Almost overlooked this one! I'd definitely love to get my hands on this route, having travelled it before a couple of times during vacations. Very...
Sign me up! As mentioned, the 140 has been a staple of the German railway system for decades and is sorely lacking on LFR for freight and even...
