The Harlem's my local real life line, and it certainly excels in some areas while falling on its face in others. The scenery is pretty good, the...
[img] I feel like I've been screaming this into an echo chamber for the past two main releases, TSW5 more so than anything. Even worse is that...
I'd love to see some Enterprise stock added to TSW, or just any Irish content in general. The old MakingTracks MSTS content isn't quite cutting it...
That's the one
It's not as awful as you'd think, I watch some of the older Pentrex stuff on my OLED TV at home and it looks old, but not enough to detract from...
Fair point, I think the current Bachmann HO model is hovering around $300; there sure as hell ain't $300 worth of tooling going on there lol.
I ended up going with Roll20, and so far I'm pretty happy with it. I've been able to come up with some basic maps, and even purchased some of the...
They did it for TSC, I don't see why it couldn't be done for TSW
The route sounds fun, but like jack said, it sure as hell won't be free. I'd rather see the Hastings unit developed with a few rail tour scenarios...
That's pretty surprising, you'd think they would encourage use of the locomotive's image to ensure it reaches a broader audience. They for sure...
As pretty and historic as 611 is, steam locomotives are indefinitely on hold in TSW Only way this gets made is if a third party decides to tackle...
I wouldn't mind seeing these as part of a back-dated London to Brighton route, we desperately need some slam-door EMU stock.
I'll be sure to report my findings. One of my coworkers plays as a Halfling and ordered an unpainted mini from them, he said the quality was...
I got bored and designed my Kenku bard in Hero Forge yesterday, I'm pretty happy with how it came out... [img] I ended up ordering the 2"...
A couple more finds off Bricklink... [img]
The ALC locomotives are in service, mostly on the west coast and the midwest. You do see them around Ivy City and out of DC for the Cap Limited...
The Airo sets are not even fully built yet, and far from testing. Metro-North has been testing their two new dual-mode Chargers out of Grand...
Thanks Jan! I'll give them a look; I'm at the point where I'm writing our first session and I'd like to have some visual maps to help me set the...
To all of my D&D and other TTRPG players on here, can anyone suggest a decent virtual table top for PC? Our regular DM uses a program that's...
It's been awhile, but I'm still narrowing down my list. I'm down to about 25 left of the City-themed sets and 4 of the '99-'01 Star Wars sets. [img]
I got a box in the mail from Atlas today, a GP40-2W. I've always had a soft spot for the wide-cab Geeps, and these could be seen on the PAR routes...
On Series X, I'd like to reiterate that the sensitivity on the Sprinter's power handle is too high. Gentle taps on RB and RT were putting me in...
Agreed, the TSW5 music does not match the vibe of the game at all
The Amtrak HHP-8's were often called "hippos" by folks here in the States, it was not an official title though The Baldwin DR-12 was known as the...
Metro-North uses the P32AC-DM, not the P42. It's a dual-mode third-rail variant of the Genesis capable of operating on the under-riding third rail...
A very clear lack of quality control and testing, especially on Xbox, combined with DTG's constant overrated hype/accelerated release...
One of my favorite things in the world is getting up extra early to catch an Amtrak Empire Train out of Rhinecliff on the Hudson River on a nice...
Paul Holland's "My Life as a Rear End" is a fantastic read if you're interested in personal experiences from a railroader....
No no, sweet and spicy Italian sausage sliced into spears, layered with onions and peppers and a splash of tomato sauce on a warm buttered grinder...
I've been pretty lucky with my Series X. I managed to snag one in 2021 when they were a royal PIA to get a hold of and it's treated me well. I...
TSW I play on the Xbox, which I have found to be lacking in quality control as of late. I had a chance to play through some of the training center...
Do you play on console or PC?
I do on occasion mainly to justify retaining my collection of MSTS content. I wouldn't say one is better than the other, they each have their own...
Had a chance to tinker with the two training scenarios last night on the Series X. I'd like to parrot the issues with the repeating dialog for...
I have a soft spot for Class 14's, and wouldn't mind seeing one for the WSR
Down the road I wouldn't mind these, but I would like to see them tackle the P42 and P32 first while they are still in active service
Remember when creators started animating the doors on trains to operate with the pantograph "P" key towards the end? That blew my mind back in my...
The passenger behavior in general needs an overhaul, especially with bringing trains in and out of service. I really don't like when you have to...
Nothing else modern for me for steam (or other train sims in general) I'm afraid, aside from TSC and MSTS/OR. The others out there just don't...
No worries, I've kind of given up on that one anyways due to its obscurity lol. You're a better man than I for ditching your old MSTS discs Vern,...
Did you happen to have any of the old UKTrainsim online ordering CD's in that pile of discs? I've been trying to hunt down the SVR Diesel Gala CD...
Great write-up Mevans, I think this would make an excellent addition to the game, especially with preserved examples (non-running) being...
I use an Xbox controller for flight sim and don't have any issues, but I'm also more of a casual player and expect an 'arcade' experience to ooh...
They're available as freeware for MSTS/OpenRails, but they're older models and not up to current standards. You'll need to sign up for a free...
Latest pre-order release, the Atlas NJT commuter train pack with ALP dual mode locomotive and three multilevel cars. I'm pretty impressed with the...
Sounds like you dodged a huge bullet. My wife usually just reads while I play, and mocks the AWS chimes by saying "DING!" after every ramp I pass...
I saved this one in my Xbox wish list to buy at a later date and/or on sale. I usually gobble up most DLC, but at $40 for a route with no new...
IC Swallow is one of my favorite paint schemes, this would be a definite buy for me
I'm not quite that far downstate, closer to Albany, but we're in the Hudson River Valley between the Catskill and Berkshire mountain ranges which...
I hope all my brothers and sisters across the pond are staying safe and comfortable. I read an article yesterday that the high winds you're...
Separate names with a comma.
