Am I right in thinking that you get East Coastway in the TSW2 collectors addition? As that is my favourite UK route and would definitely recommend...

You might be right there, though I'm not sure what wagons are prototypical on these services. So if freight services were to be included, they may...

I'm guessing they'll be freight services to/from the Isle of Grain, coming off the route at Hoo Junction, probably using the class 66 already in game.

At the moment, you can just use step 1 for all station stops and still run ahead of time, so making the brakes a bit less effective may just mean...

Happy to see the braking and sound on the class 377 being looked at, should make it more enjoyable to drive.

I find 2C73, the last service from Seaford to Brighton, on East Coastway quite interesting. You get a red just before Brighton where you have to...

For your first question, you are correct, the upper limit applies to passenger trains, mail trains and light locos, the lower limit applies to...

I don't think anything had to be done to the tunnel, but the track under two road bridges in Ryde had to be lowered as there was not enough clearance.

Definitely! I think some slammers would add more variety and interest to any route in the Southern Region, possibly an opportunity for the new...

That'd definitely be the major difficulty in recreating them. With any luck, the original technical drawings may still survive in archives but...

It would be nice to see some EMUs in the game which have no surviving examples. Off the top of my head, I can think of a few classes I'd like to...

Great idea for a thread. From what I currently own, here's my list: Routes (Best to Worst) East Coastway Northern Transpennine Tees Valley Line...

Agree with all those said already, I have a couple more to add: When driving from the end of the train towards Ryde, the headout cameras still...

I can understand the argument that the licence holders possibly not being too comfortable with it when they have rolling stock with droplights in...

I was going to ask the same, as the route will definitely look different today as it did in BR days. It doesn't have to be an exact replica, so...

For modern signalling there's usually either track circuits or axel counters to see whether there is a train in the signalling block. Even lots of...

I'm pretty sure the timetable for ECW is the same as in real life (minus the services that run through Lewes platforms 1 and 2 to Eastbourne). So...

On East Coastway, the TPWS actually activates when you pass a signal at danger so the emergency brakes apply. But it's only possible to see on one...

Just filled it out, some good questions in there. It's nice to see Rivet engaging with the community and finding out what we want to see,...

I think it is possible, but just very difficult to do. I managed to do it by crouching and turning on the head torch so I could actually see the...

Definitely agree with this. In TSW2, the braking is just unrealistically effective, although I'm no expert on these units, the braking in TSW2020...

Is this on service mode, not on the scenario planner? As i've personally not experienced this issue on ECW service mode but it may be platform or...

Early next year, an extra passing loop is being added at Brading to make a half hourly service possible in preparation for the 484s coming into...

Being pretty local and having been on that line quite a few times, I'd definitely love to see this route as it has some spectacular scenery and...

MYG92 is right. From the start of this year all trains in Britain had to be PRM compliant which has certain requirements of accessibility. Older...

I have the same issue. When using the scenario planner on TVL it doesn't seem to include passenger stops even when passenger mode is selected. It...

The rain sounds are one of the worst things for me. On some trains when driving in the rain the sound of the rain on the roof the train is just...

You're train only has to fit in your starting platform, it can be longer than any platforms you stop at. Just ignore the maximum length, as long...

That's also how I understand it. The dim ones are used at night to prevent the drivers of passing trains being dazzled and bright ones in the day...

In Britain, when not shunting, there should always be taillights at the rear of the formation, it doesn't matter whether its just a light loco or...

I would definitely buy this route if it was made. It would bring another aspect of the railways in Britain to TSW as the first British route...

You can manually switch the points in that area, and have done so myself, whether you can get a train there is another question. It may be...

There's a few manual points at Ryde St John's Depot and you can shunt between the different lines in the depot without encountering a signal.

A pacer would definitely be a great addition. They're such unique DMUs and would add make passenger services on TVL more interesting.

The destination boards aren't functional on the 166 in TSW, but it would be nice if they made them work sometime in the future.

I heard that the flags will be added for preserved collection routes as and when they receive an update. Otherwise you'd have to update all of the...

In real life, AWS is only fitted in advance of a major speed reduction (over 30%) or at locations of high risk but even then some large speed...

I'd like to see an extension for East Coastway with the line from Eastbourne to Ashford (42 miles), including the class 171. It'd also be nice to...

This reminds me of an incident that occurred on the ECML in the 70s. An express train was travelling north from York when sometime after...

The game already sort of does this, it loads tiles as you go along, instead of loading the whole route all at once. This means it's less memory...

Could not agree more, the save feature would definitely be of use if we ever get longer routes. And don't get me wrong, the full route would be...

I'd be up for any extensions to East Coastway. This seems like a good length with lots of services to do,especially with the Bognor and...

It would be nice to see a classic AC electrified British route as we're going to have three DC third rail routes soon and a high speed AC route....

On WSR is it the tutorial that's not working once you start the engine? If it is I'm pretty that only occurs if you hold the start button and it...

A route extension for Northern Transpennine would be a welcome addition for me. I think route pack including the line from Newton Heath to...

More DMUs for NTP in particular would be great and would add even more variety to the route, especially if they add more services. I personally...

It'd take them many times longer than any other other route to build which would probably have to be reflected in the price. This is without the...

I agree, it'd be a great route see. The sheer number of different types of rolling stock used on the line makes it an extremely varied and...

As a purely selfish route suggestion, I'll put forward my local lines, the Airedale and Wharfedale lines which haven't been modelled been modelled...

A single 4 car 377 is 82 metres long so it can be used from most stations on the island, I've done a run along the line using the 377 in the...
