Apart from the 220 having what look like ambulance bogies. :)
The game does not offer degrees, but you can switich it to the British system of horizintal distance travelled per unit of vertical distance, so...
Haha! I thought I'd run through the tutorial again myself. Yes, you're right, the rear locomotive isn't running. I climbed abord it and it looked...
It won't have been in the Microsoft Games subscription because that, if I understand correctly, was for the Xbox. However, if you bought TSW 2020...
No. It is different. It has greater variety, The trains themselves are generally more polished, but I would say that the journeys (those that I...
One problem is that Journeys completely ignores anything that has been completed via some other menu, such as Training, Scenarios, Timetable or...
Just in case DominusEdwardius reply isn't clear enough: In the cab you are NOT driving from: The AWS Cab Changeover Lever must be set to Off It...
I can assure you that if you drive a steam locomotive you care very much about the boiler. It would be exceptionally unusual for a driver to...
How do you get the blur? I can understand it in the picture of Maidenhead (though I'm not sure I could replicate it myself), but how did you take...
The DMU cars only have vacuum brakes. They don't have air brakes. Each car has a vacuum reservoir, just like the locomotive, and once it is...
Doesn't it look ugly? I thought they looked quite nice in white, and Virgin red really siuted them, but that's horrible.
You'll have the vacuum brakes on on the carriages then (unless you can find the vacuum release strings on each DMU carriage, in which case you'll...
Are you coupled to a train? What are the vehicles? As I say, I have not done much with the class 31, but I thought that it was always set to...
There isn't a selector switch in the No. 2 cab, is there? I haven't seen one. The sequence of instructions is poorly laid out (I think manuals...
Thank you for that, it is very useful. Why is none of this in any of the manuals? I found your own class 08 additional information document,...
I've barely played with the class 31, but what exactly did you do? What train; what was the previous brake type setting; what position was the...
There are two vital things to understand with brakes that have a "lap" position: The normal position of the brake handle while you are braking...
The screenshots include GWE, and CSX is apparently part of the "core game", so I suspect they are exactly the same. I bought TSW 2020 through a...
You are right, of course, but the key thing appears to be that none of the services in the core route disappear off the map in any direction that...
I saw another thread suggesting Gloucester to Birmingham (but this thread came first). To me, this is one of the most interesting British routes...
Northern Transpennine. Miles Platting. A DMU to Manchester waits for the 19:48 Manchester - Leeds express to pass.[ATTACH]
I think you mean that it's a video game, so no danger was there. The pixellated people are in just as much danger from defective signalling in the...
It is a curious omission, isn't it, seeing that the signal box is so prominent in that location, and other signalboxes have been modelled. I don't...
I've just noticed that the British Rail class 47 has the cylinder brake pressure in psi (as is usual in British locomotives of this era), but the...
It is a game, so do one gets hurt, it is true, However, it is a sim; it is meant to be realistic and to me and many other players our enjoyment...
Quite honestly, I don't think it is necessary. I don't really want them to be any bigger and the HUD is cluttered enough as it is. In general, you...
D stock looked rubbish, I agree, but what about R stock or CO/CP stock? [IMG]
Rather too slick for my liking. It's returning the up home signal 8 [Edit: This should be signal 4: I misread the signalling diagram and was...
I rather like Journey mode since it sets the time of year, the weather and traction for you, as well as providing an answer to "What shall I do...
That's the problem. If there were no through trains, I expect a geographical route extension would be possible as all the trains on the extension...
NTP 19:48 Manchester Victoria to Leeds. The other train is the 19:50 empty coaching stock move from Newton Heath to Manchester Victoria and this...
309s! [IMG] They were far nicer with the wrap-round windows, but I can't find any good photographs. I always liked the 2-car unit pantograph...
My guess - and it is a guess - would be that Manchester to York would be a completely separate route from Manchester to Leeds because it would...
Well, well. Until I saw that screenshot I'd never noticed they had the moon in the wrong place. Nigh on full, half past eight in the evening, low...
Not that I can see. I suggest that for up to date timetables you look at Wonterail's excellent timetable thread here:...
Ctrl-5. Other Ctrl-number combination turn off other parts of the HUD or cycle between options.
Well, I don't play ECW, and NTP (the route I play most) does not appear to have any whistle boards, but on TVL, I sound the horn, like any other...
This week's screenshot competition theme is infrastucture, so I went with my camera over to Slaithwaite Viaduct on NTP to see if I could get a...
There are six standard keyboard shortcuts for sounds: Bell 1: B Bell 2: Ctrl-B Horn 1 high: space Horn 1 low: N Horn 2 high: Ctrl-space Horn 2...
What's the use in that? It's got everything I hate about these DTG routes, and everything I imagine the OP hates, for having created this thread...
You mean that in this screen, you just see "None" where I have the arrows displayed? [ATTACH] What happens if you press Q?
33s rarely strayed far from the Southern Region, and I doubt a blue 33 ever visited NTP or TVL, apart from the 1984 Gatwick Express demonstration...
I've just tested it and I agree. When reloading a save, all the power controls (master key, forward/reverse and the power handle) are locked....
Did you remember to turn on the master key, or whatever is needed in the train you're driving? Of course, using F1 to turn off all the HUD, you...
If you spawn in on foot at 08:20, it is just at Drayton Green Junction. The train gets to West Ealing at 08:22 and leaves at 08:25. If you spawn...
I never see a Dovetail logo. I see a small full colour splashscreen with Train Sim World 2020, followed by a black full screen with TSW in big...
Quite onestly, I don't find this a problem, to the extent I thought "What video? I never see a video" Since you need to click through the don't...
This has the makings of a very good route indeed, with the 2-mile long 1 in 37.7 (2.65%) Lickey Incline in the middle of it, but I suspect it...
Milk? Cattle?? Is the route being re-set to the 1930s? They'd better put the other two tracks back between Diggle and Heaton Lodge, and add goods...
It's the wrong era for me. Modern units, even modern loco-hauleds don't do it for me, and I've enough routes already with various types of modern...
Separate names with a comma.
