Nice video. If you want me to give you some professional tips on how to improve your driving, let me know and I’ll give you some feedback. :)
Route Knowledge. During the driver training, you will get a set amount of time to learn the route. For example, you may get 30 days to learn...
I’ll be intrigued to see how well they do with simulating the Class 390s, 350s and possibly 221s if they do implement the idea or any part of the...
The East Midlands Trains (or East Midlands Railways now) have VP185 engines which sound semi-Valenta.* From my understanding, all HSTs should have...
What about the HST?
Nah, it’s TSW doing what everyone keeps asking for which is to have some out of course working (I.e. faults and failures) to reduce boredom and...
Again, I can speak generally because I’m not familiar with the LIRR but there are many reasons why a particular service or traction uses a...
I can’t comment about the U.S. but it would be cool if they had a bimode unit such as the Class 800s which seems to be on a lot of people’s wish...
Pressing the ‘couple’ button electrically connects the units together but first you need to mechanically couple the units. It has a ‘dellner’...
While we’re at it, can we make the HST do a cold start up in the winter? :cool: [MEDIA] (didn’t mean to undermine this thread but thought some...
It is the device on the ground which you need to keep depressed at all times when train is in motion. If you release it then the brakes will...
haha, yeah when you read back a day later, you think to yourself “why on Earth was I acting like a complete moron.” To be fair, I probably come...
Inspired by the thread about electric sparks in the winter. Whilst that was about aesthetics and I support the idea, I have an idea about...
Thanks. Hey, I apologise too. It can be frustrating when I make a large informative post and someone pulls a one liner saying that I’m wrong when,...
Ok, I apologise. I’ll ask you again, for the benefit the community, can you please edit your initial post; it is confusing and misleading....
No, your arrogance is amazing because you’re saying I’m wrong when I’m a driver and clearly telling you something contrary to what you’re saying...
Probably because it’s so rare for trains having to be rescued and even rarer for a wrong direction move in this situation... just as much as, for...
Oh and while you’re at it, please let me know where it says I can’t have my light on in the cab. I’ll be sure to speak to my driver managers so...
Haha haha, are you even a driver or you didn’t read what I wrote? I said wrong direction move when you are an assisting train moving towards a...
In the UK, all trains on the mainline network MUST have headlights on at the front and tail lights at the rear regardless of whether it’s day time...
I see 2 locomotives and 2 multiple units. Not that I know much about American railways, my choice of locomotive would be LIRR DE30AC/DM30AC.
Anything with the Australian HST, the XPT, is welcomed :cool:
I completely agree especially with the HSTs because part of the great feeling of driving HSTs is walking up to the rear power car, starting the...
Where did you get this idea from? It’s not normal but there’s nothing stopping you from doing so. There are still issues, however, of AI trains...
In real life, there is something called Selective Door Opening (SDO)- you will notice that there are 3 door release buttons instead of 2 on the...
Maybe I’m being pedantic but that’s not quite true and it should be set automatically. When you reach the terminus station, the driver will get...
In real life, unless the network has CSDR (Correct Side Door Release/Enable)*, you can stop short or overrun, release the doors when you want and...
No you’re right, so it might just be an error for some reason; maybe it’s a glitch that you have to take charge of the train to be able to hear...
I will check it out for myself, but did you have the DRA in and what speed were you doing when you were observing the train from the outside? The...
Yes, sounds familiar because when doing a brake test, you isolate the Brake Pipe Pressure Control unit E70 ‘switch’ (won’t let me use the correct...
I meant West not North. Won’t let me edit Oh and I’m on my way to getting a PPL so I’m sure I’ll be making plenty of mistakes that will grind...
Yes, I realised but my point out is that reading stuff in rulebooks (or TSW’s version) without understanding the context could just end up either...
I’m a driver, I’ll leave you to guess where and what I sign :cool:
Sunscreen “you are not required to take any action at distant signals, but they can be useful etc etc..” Wow, no disrespect to you, but I can...
The game as a whole is actually pretty good and very realistic to real life particularly with regard to the handling of units (e.g. 377/166). But...
Separate names with a comma.
