I was about 5 at the time so have probably mis remembered but have a few photos in the loft of stuff me and my dad saw at the time so will have a...
I was only a kid when they were around but seem to remember 58s were an occasional sight at Preston, but certainly not frequent. Would they have...
I just went as fast as possible out of Barking Riverside - the ramp where it meets the main line helped.
I’d be astounded if a JT product was a lame reskin.
Just watching the stream now. Don’t usually play much US content but must admit this looks superb.
Shame the core list is the same but appreciate there being more route specific ones than the 3 per route we got in TSW3/4.
I’ve pre ordered the deluxe as the pre download makes life easier as can play it straight away rather than waiting for everything to download.
There’s a decent Xbox sale started today too - first in a while. Picked up Clinchfield.
This is incredibly niche but I’m going straight into passenger mode at Kings Langley, hopping on a 350 to Watford Junction, then getting a 710 to...
Really enjoyed that video too, I live close to that area so was interesting to see the Cadley Causeway comparison. Hoping my house might be...
this is exactly what I do haha
Find myself doing Blackpool South more - just love going past the incredibly modelled Pleasure Beach.
Went on the Fife Circle the other week and airport aside I would say it’s a decent match to how it is in real life. Preston to Blackpool, whilst...
Are the Pride and Green liveries included for the 390?
Stating the obvious but Blackpool Branches was amazing. Goblin was very well made and probably the best looking line in the game but it’s not...
Rivet’s WCL came with a reskin of DTG’s Class 37 so I’d say it’s entirely plausible that this could come with a reskin of Rivet’s 150.
I spotted a 45 at Kirkham Tip the other day but don’t see much of them. Seen 40s from time to time though. I believe JT stated at the time of...
A modern Crewe could be excellent. Maybe we’ll get the APT in TSW5 after all!
Preston to Crewe with Fiddlers Ferry for freight in the 80s would be amazing.
I guess half the work is already done in WCML South.
Shame it doesn’t go a little further east and into the docks for some freight but appreciate that’s not the purpose of this route.
Don’t think it goes to Heysham.
Be interested to see what they do with Steamtown which was a tourist attraction at the time (and my favourite day out as a child!).
APT was withdrawn by 1986 so wouldn’t seem likely to me. Would be great though. My money would be on a Class 86.
That list of liveries though! Oh my word.
Would guess the HST or a blue 37 for the Diesel Legends portion.
Normally don’t plonk anachronistic trains into a route on Free Roam but don’t think Preston to Carlisle has changed a great deal since the 80s, so...
40s and 45s are on Blackpool which is set at the same time and pretty sure you see them as AI heading north on the WCML so would assume they’ll be...
Hoping the 87 gets AI’d back onto Blackpool Branches for WCML services.
Hoping it’s a Deltic but would seem a long shot.
From the JT Facebook page.
Genuinely leapt to my feet in celebration over the JT announcement
I’m hyped. I’m very hyped. Will be getting deluxe edition but the free starter pack is such a good idea.
I’m feeling suitably hyped. Lots of new content to be announced for a game I love.
Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere but just came across this product page (with release date):...
They definitely don’t always do this. For example the London to Brighton traffic never got added into East Coastway when it came out.
I don’t think it will (barring maybe Cathcart) but I really hope the 390 gets back ported as AI into the (many) routes where they’d be in real...
Hope we get some 104/PF timetable update news at Dovetail Direct as it’s such a superb route with some of the best scenarios in the game but it’s...
Might struggle to get the sounds for an APT… maybe convince Crewe Heritage Centre to boot her up for the day haha.
Went down this line in real life for the first time today (Cameron Bridge to Waverley) and have to say that airport aside they got that side of...
Went back to WCL the other day, mostly because I’ve just come back from a holiday in Cornwall. The stations are great and the run into Penzance...
One of the most mind blowing finds on this route I came across is if you walk down the original disused curve to the north of Poulton (that...
On Xbox at least just doing one scenario (when they’d been done previously) seems to unlock the relevant achievement.
Let’s try another tack… how about a teaser to cheer us up?!
Enjoyed the Western rail tour service which went down the single track branch, a very nice surprise inclusion. Think that section was only ever...
If I could pick any route for TOD4 and/or a timetable route it would be this. It’s a magnificent route but is showing its age more than most.
For those asking, the Game Pass discount kicked in around 5pm so is available now. Seem to be quicker than they used to be which is nice.
If it is where we think it is then Steam Town was alive and kicking at Carnforth in the late 80s, which could be interesting.
Did a run on the line last night on Series X and encountered no issues other than the blurry destination board on the 314.
Given it’s heavily requested I do wonder if it IS Preston to Carlisle but with the mini Morecambe/Heysham area included. Huge undertaking but we...
