You should be able to run the 64bit version now from within Steam. Start the Steam application, find TS in the Library and click on play- you...
145mph in a Castle class with ten on- admittedly on Sherman Hill's 20-odd miles of down grade.
It's a remake of a pretty good RKO B-movie. Both worth a look. In case it wasn't clear I do recommend The Ladykillers. The trains provide a...
That is indeed exactly what happened (more or less- the locomotive brakes were on but overcome by the engine and just wore to nothing) and thanks...
Completely agree- Scott was a great craftsman but not one to let plausibility get in the way of the spectacle. Runaway Train mentioned in the OP...
How did I forget The General (Buster Keaton)? A bit flabby and indulgent compared to some of Keaton's films but still great.
I liked Unstoppable but I didn't love it. Apart from good production values, it's the sort of thing that would be a movie of the week on American...
North West Frontier (Kenneth More, Lauren Baccall, dir. J.Lee Thompson IIRC) The Train (Burt Lancaster, Paul Schofield, dir. John Frankenheimer)...
You're very welcome. It's worth mentioning that the best of the laptops I mentioned is a few years old now and an i3. Your i5 will be a few...
The bad news is that the lack of a discrete GPU will throttle TS on this system which, otherwise, should be more than adequate (the UHD Graphics...
I don't have the TS2019 bundle so this is a bit of a guess but, as it is made up of newer routes, there may only be Career scenarios for them....
Welcome aboard. I was shy of train simulators for a few years fearing that a combination of computers and trains would prevent me from ever...
If you want to drive steam without spending too much I suggest you look for a copy of TS2016 which includes The Riviera Line in the '50s- that is...
The lack of Australian content, bugs and how useless Dovetail is :-D Not really but it does seem like it sometimes. Subjects are pretty much...
[IMG] I'm still not able to come up with new screengrabs so here's another one I prepared earlier using Sherman Hill.
Unless there's a pretty improbable amount of background business going on hoovering up RAM and clock cycles my suggestion is irrelevant. Now that...
What are your system's spec's? I noticed similar problems on the laptop I've been using recently while my usual system is at the vets. I put it...
Which loco' are you asking about? Some have notched throttles, others don't.
Weardale and Teesdale Network in the '60s is the route I got started with and remains my favourite. Comes with geared DMUs and Diesel-electrics...
[IMG] The interior of an EM2 as she's about to emerge from the interior of the new Woodhead tunnel. Original Woodhead Route.
[IMG] A glance through the window in Riviera in the '50s. If anyone's wondering yes- I entered this and the next picture in an earlier competition.
You're welcome. No because I don't have the new version but the original, although an older DLC, is great. It's set in the electric era but with...
Keep in mind that older editions of TS are available from other sites often at bargain prices. For the sake of a few minutes Googling you can...
There are people who pay full price?
One important addition to that point- don't just go to the store and buy them because there a several routes which include both often for less...
Greetings from County Durham.
Is this with the 64bit version? Some users have found that it defaults to their integrated graphics chipset. You may need to force TS to use...
I have the V200 so it must be part of the European and UK Loco's and Assets. If you want to take it for a spin I'd suggest you find the...
Is it too late to point out that my pic' also got votes in an earlier competition so technically... I jest of course- congratulations Railfan.
Tutorials seem to be just another type of scenario. Some DLCs include them, some don't. I didn't have any until recently. WCML(Shap), which I...
There are two Pendolinos- could that be confusing things?
It's just a trick of the perspective. One of the ways you would gauge your own speed or that of something approaching you is how fast it appears...
[IMG] Once the pride of the GWR Castle class loco's sit idle as D1031 Western Rifleman pulls away from Exeter St. David's (The Riviera Line in...
Don't you mean a Stotty cake full of bacon? I talked up a Metro proposal in the TS forums on Steam a year or more ago. While the purpose built...
You're correct- it is now internationally recognised (since the '70s I think) that a billion is a thousand millions, a trillion is a million...
Regarding the BR155 it was given away to buyers of TS2016 in a scheme called TS Rewards and subsequently, like all the other TS Rewards items, it...
Indeed- that did occur to me before I had a second look at the OP. It's largely a European practice I believe.
Okay. I must say for my money TS has the edge over TSW at the moment because of the huge choice of content. If you want to drive a steam...
Looking at the OP (and the wiki) it's 1.662bn- only three orders of magnitude out though. (I thought it was a comma at first glance too.)
Welcome aboard Schauzhpowahz. Well it would depend on your area of interest. If you want to know about American steam loco's there'd be no point...
Do I gather from that that the HD graphics is actually incorporated into the CPU? The advice up-thread is still applicable and fitting cards is...
Well, like your other system, the processor is more than adequate for TS but I see no indication of a discrete GPU. Are you sure you're not...
Someone's going to ask so it might as well be me- can you post the specifications?
The Clayton's a nice looking little loco'- pleasant to drive (so I'm told) and with a nice comfy cab to sit in while you wait for a recovery...
I ran into this too. WCML(N) is a good route but it does seem to have more than its share of duff scenarios- the other two Career scenarios are...
How about 18100? A gas-turbine loco' ordered by the GWR but eventually delivered to BR after WW2. She was rebuilt as a 25Kv electric for test...
Ooh you've got it bad! I got £20 to spend over Christmas and was thinking, "should I really spend it on TS? That'd take me up to £80!"
At the risk of sounding like a broken record I'd always recommend The Weardale and Teesdale Network in the '60s. It's vast, various (an excuse...
You're welcome. Indeed. My 6-7 year old laptop has a fairly low-end GPU so a lot of graphics settings are turned down but TS still looks pretty...
Hit Post Reply before I was finished- I wanted to add a caveat to what I said about TS. Although development will (probably be) confined to a few...
Separate names with a comma.
