They back out of the station into a big ole loop and then back into the station again facing the other direction.
I feel like if anything else was announced instead of this it would be a mega disappointment
Also the strict FRA rules regarding crumple zones, à collision with an American freight train would cause some European EMUS to break like they’re...
Also an interesting thought, MBTA will use a menagerie of different coaches in a single train, will that be in TSW? Or will they just pick one...
I for one am absolutely THRILLED for Amtrak and MBTA. It’s far past time we get a new American passenger route
I’ve got every german DLC but HRR so it definitely would be busy
It’s the month/ then the date/then whatever year it is. It makes more sense than date/month/year also is it worth getting HRR just for the 101?
Y’all and your backwards dates
If we’re talking US freight trains there have been scenarios where trains have crewed up at a red signal and sat at said red signal for the...
It would make me such a happy camper to have LABLED yard maps and just instructions on where to put stuff, you figure out how it gets there just...
It’s very dumb that they haven’t included the right Dostoevsky, it’s in the same vein as them omitting the cab car for the 101
Except that three step didn’t come around till the 90s with conrail...so just try not to get squished?
Yes but it was never ported into TSW2, so will never get any improvements etc.
It’s been over a year since we’ve gotten any new North American routes, allbeit clinch field and cane creek are on the horizon, but it’s been...
No new American passenger trains on the horizon:(
In real life it had/has both
At least now at days H84 is always six axles(confirmed from a conductor who runs it regularly) here is a shot I took from a while back
All the locals are run by sd60e’s and dash 9s on the keystone line, they have to use power that’s equipped with cab signals
It’s because you can’t open the angle cocks manually, the air rushing into the cars trips the PCS Valve in the same way uncoupling the cars...
Both the 112 and 101 achievements are on steam
I really hope it has a control stand instead of a control desk as well. 90% of US freight locos now have the AAR stand instead of the desk.
Not mine, but here’s the new ALP42
From what I hear they only wash the outside of 800...the inside is very much living up to the CF name:)
Especially for the B unit, as there’s no cab to begin with. There is clinchfield 800 which hopefully was used as reference material for the...
Oh great, now there’s a new one called Franch?¿
Which Swiss language?
Also RSN with the 363 and 155
I’m hopeful it means something massive is coming, like MBTA+Amtrak or something of the like.
Yeah I’m much more excited for the 4/4, and it sets up the ability to shunt and run around the train and such.
I’m curious about the BNSF issue as Run8 seems to have no problem at all with BNSF and hundreds of miles of their trackage.
I am really really hoping for a functional caboose otherwise I’m excited
My favorite of those three is the mp15 because you get the most to do with it, otherwise I’d say the 363 if you prefer German stuff.
So that you don’t hit your head when you go emergency at 225kmh
I wonder how that works with remote control then?
It’s official it’s coming February 4th
Just imagine that they used to have to do it with a steam locomotive back in the day, certainly no slow speed control there
this sums up all the major issues with this release I think, because with the 101 you think longer fast services in between cities...and HRR just...
I’m afraid also with the loco being released on HRR that it might not be equipped with LZB:/
It also runs on HMA in real life
Since it’s been said officially on stream, is it a deal breaker for you if the the DB BR 101 does not come with the IC cab car? [ATTACH]
I would only pay full price if it came with the cab car and intercity coaches. Ideally I’d want to be able to take it full speed on HMA, but I...
Well I was very much looking forward to the cab car so that’s very disappointing.
At first I was like...what does dovetail have to do with the valve/STEAM website. Then it dawned on me, I’m very excited.
I wish they would just pay someone who already makes really good sounds for like DCC decoders or other train sims/mods. It would make a world’s...
Freight trains in the US are so much more than A to B and switching, I’d love to see a route and services where you have to pickup and drop off of...
I would really really love to be able to at least open and close the valves/angle cocks on the end of each car when coupling at the very least....
fyi, you’ve written the dates backwards;)
These puns have me fried:)
