I very much support this. On many/most runs you need to do some preparation. This may be fine on passenger turns that begin with load passengers...
Ah, I don't have Peninsula Corridor. What's the holding position?
The first thing I particularly noticed, not so much because it is a nice detail in itself but because it is a visual demonstration of how well DTG...
British practice is mostly that drivers do everything, from locomotive/train preparation in the depot to driving it on the main line. Some larger...
The only thing passenger loading needs in my opinion is for them to get out at terminal stations. Yes, I know there are lots of other aspects of...
They come automatically from 120 mph being the maximum speed. Look at any HUD speedometer and the divisions are all fifths of the maximum, so far...
Different type of locomotive, different maximum speed, darker interior is what it looks like to me. I haven't played American routes (apart from a...
Sounds good, but is/was there any freight working? Clydeport, perhap? Shieldhall doesn't appear to offer much. If not then it would just be...
Yes, I had noticed that. Even with what at first glance appeared to be the most poorly-timed trains, it is extraordinarily difficult as a player...
DominusEdwardius. Thank you for your very informative reply. Me neither! It's in my contemporary rail atlas, which is how I knew what it was....
Before I discovered @Wonterail’s excellent service mode timetables, I compiled my own timetable in spreadsheet format for Northern Transpennine,...
I only recall it running on the Western Region, thought it must have made trips to and from Derby. Really, it wouldn't have made sense testing it...
As with others, I'd be willing to pay a lot more for a route that particularly interested me, or for an important expansion to a route I already...
Oh yes, I forgot to mention that. :D
It is a common complaint that there aren't enough trains in the service timetables in TSW, that it would be good to have added AI trains that...
The visual representation of three-link couplings in Northern Transpennine is certainly wrong, Here is a picture of the coupling between the...
I have no idea where to post this, and it may be of little itnerest to most users of this forum, but I have noticed a depressing number of clear...
That was why I stopped at Diggle to see how long the loop is (it'll easily hold a loco + 13 TEAs; I haven't yet gone through the whole Heavy...
Oh, I'd be happy enough with only being able to see with my in-game eyes, with just the arrow keys so I could stick my head out of the cab window....
You are of course quite right. I'll amend my post. Presumably this is the same train you mentioned where the Marsden starter didn't clear...
I have mentioned elsewhere (https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/ntp-inappropriate-routing-signals-and-speed-limits.20295/) about trains being...
Is Free Camera mode available on foot? Pressing 8 does not work. I can understand 2 and 3 not being available if you aren't in a train, but why...
It depends on the era as well, of course. Olaf is a current driver so he is well placed to answer any questions about the rules in Britain today....
Route: Northern Transpennine Class 40. 6M18 Healey Mills - Manchester loaded oil train meeting the 07:48 Manchester - Leeds passenger train hauled...
Generally true, but you don't have to go back many years for running without front lights at all to be fine on some lines, in Britain at least....
Since the trains I used to work on also had a high vecuum reservoir, and twin vacuum gauges (but the high vacuum side was not piped through to...
All vacuum brake systems have a high vacuum system, but usually this isn't connected down the train - there is just one vacuum pipe between...
You sent me scurrying away to look up a braking circuit diagram. Of course, DMUs had a separate reservoir pipe throughout the train, something I...
I had hoped to try out the Tees Valley 101 on Northern Transpennine as they seem to have different characteristics (the Tees Valley units appear...
I, too, have had no problems taking screenshots on NTP. I'm playing on a PC and use F12.
It's the 30 after the 125, when you turn off the main line. When you enter the 125 the HUD gives the next limit as 50, at least it does in the PC...
Another disk. This time in the class 40 tutorial. It controls the exit from Hillhouse Sidings just north of Huddersfield. Since I've barely played...
I've responded to this in my class 101 thread, where I thought it was more relevant. Here's the link:...
Quoted from another thread, but I think replying here makes more sense: Since the game's power twin cannot keep time, I wouldn't have thought...
Here's a current Northern Transpennine timetable, There are a few changed from the one you posted:...
After buying TSW and starting on the Northern Transpennine route, it did not take long for me to realise that ordinary spawning in to trains does...
I have just taken the 11:41 Leeds to Huddersfield DMU into Huddersfield, slowing down as expected for the 40 and then the 15 mph speed limits,...
Tees Valley is on sale right now and I am very tempted to buy it. As I said earlier, the timings in NTP match the prototype so they ought to be...
I am new to Train Sim World; well, I'm pretty new to train sims in any form after an unsuccessful foray into Train Simulator some time ago. But...
Ah, I've bought the Heavy Freight expansion but then uninstalled it as I wanted to look more closely at the vanilla NTP timetable. I've just...
Here's another one, a colour light this time: Manchester Victoria signal 64 (platform 6 starter). This picture is from the 16:04 departure, but...
After the 12:00 Leeds - Neville Hill ECS reverses at Whitehall Road, the disc signal controlling the route round to Engine Shed Junction remains...
This train is routed into Cleaning Siding 2, which is already occupied by the 20:40 ex-Manchester ECS. Presumably it should be routed into...
