The type of people living in an area has a big impact
I'd much rather they fix the numerous other inaccuracies and bugs in releases instead of spending that time on gimmicks most people will not use...
You can make decent runs in scenario planner as it is fairly flexible due to simplicity of the route. Obviously without the run around at each...
The 31 is particularly enjoyable on this route as it is quite a weak locomotive in real life so you can open it up a bit on the gradients here.
I think this phenomenon where the driver seems to have a bit of extra power than us is due to the fireman. The fireman in real life would have...
I haven't got TSW4 so I can't own Flying Scotsman but from everything I've read on here it's a bit of a mess. Looks very pretty but doesn't...
Looks fun - great pictures. I've been trying a few railtour times as an experiment a I find the same issue in that the timings are so relaxed....
Nice run, glad to hear you enjoyed it. I think we have definitely found a flaw with our artifical method of restraining the locomotive by using...
Definitely don't buy it unless it's only a few pounds. It has a nice atmosphere but very boring chugging along with massively over-powered (for...
I felt it wasn't far off being about right to be honest but I just couldn't compete on the long climb at the end, it just didn't have the...
Bishops Lydeard - Minehead return 8f + 10 mk1's I kicked off with the run down to Minehead. Straight out of Bishops Lydeard you are onto the...
I had a go at the 8f Railtour timings you found on the West Somerset Railway. One because we haven’t had a challenge with the 8f and two because I...
The line from La Spezia along the coast would be nice. Or perhaps Sicily featuring shunting the coaches onto the ferry would be exciting.
No it means there is a derailer.
I hope it will appear elsewhere. The lack of correct safety systems has never been a problem for DTG so it shouldn't be now.
Nice run, it’s great to see an improvement every time I does not sound like you’ve got much to improve on with your runs. You can only do so much...
Some very nice runs guys. Very enjoyable to read and compare. I had a crack at the Leeds to Manchester Victoria run with the Jubilee. I wanted a...
Thanks, I really enjoy these challenges, it's a wholesome thread. For the BR Green Diesels I made my own liveries and made a scenario....
I had a crack at the Manchester to Leeds run with the Jubilee + 7 mk1's with only 25% front dampers. My scenario time started at 09:15 but I will...
An excellent video. I'm suprised he chose to use a big boy, it must have taken ages to model. I see he's done a diesel-electric locomotive...
I'd love the 31 in the designer, great for SOS in green.
Keep it simple and to the point. Name and address and contact details at the top. A short paragraph about why you want the job and how you suit...
You want to reduce pressure. In the game opening the blower, firebox or dampers increases pressure. Try closing the blower and dampers. (0%)...
Absolutely. Stopping points need to be more flexible too. Why should I have to pull a cut of cars twice as far as I need to before being able to...
They are not compatible. In real life they can be pulled but only with the brakes isolated and passengers moved to the front unit. 5mph max.
There is a large amount of freight through both stations. Probably the most numerous is the intermodal container trains. These are hauled from...
Almost all the recent railtour consists, including SEHS and MML have no brake coach and always the wrong tail lamp. Maybe to them it seems like a...
You must remember when the Flying Scotsman and steam ruled, Freight was very much the priority for railways. Although not as glamorous as the top...
I'm hoping they do a bundle with BPO in but I'm not holding out much hope.
Well worth it. NTP and the heavy freight pack are essential for anyone interested in br blue. Also desirable are TVL with the class 31 and class...
I do enjoy making scenarios on it. Unfortunately I won’t be getting TSW 4 anytime soon but the new scenario planner will be very useful on this...
I think it was TSW was it not? Plenty of amazing routes from those early days. Im thinking NTP, TVL, SPG, RSN, GWE to name a few.
O tempora, O mores
Whatever they do I hope DTG has an involvement. Rivet has shown that they can’t do the best timetables or scenery on their own.
Really hoping for some more RhB. I want to get some more use out of my metre gauge stock.
You made some good points. There are lots of opportunities for layers. German routes get some very nice layers and British routes too although it...
Both the 31 and 20 need to be let loose elsewhere as much as possible. The 31 as in reality, cannot pull the skin of a rice pudding but it can...
There are so many compromises in TSW. Another timetable with the pacer randomly subbing in would be welcome I’m sure.
Most freight does indeed take the former line via Lincoln but you will see it at Peterborough and Doncaster. There are a few intermodal trains a...
Wow, you've knocked it out of the park! Well done. I cannot match your climbing ability. I'm often too scared to adjust my controls once I've...
Thank you. It's all thanks to your technique of keeping the pressure high at all costs after Weaver Junction. I never could manage to do well on...
On all these I've just left the fireman hard at work constantly. Until we get an actual visualisation of the fire its hard to tell if they have...
Liverpool - Crewe with Runcorn call. 14:45 Lime St - Crewe 1st My first attempt started well. With a brisk start I used a bit of steam to get me...
Well you've done it. I think you've cracked the secret to the Weaver Junction to Crewe section. I have tried this run 3 times using various...
The route looks great but the team behind it are the real highlight for me. I've seen some great creative and design decisions with the player in...
Precisely and also the reason why nothing ever changes. Why would it when there's a loyal army of day 1 buyers?
Never
Quite a website! Just what I was looking for.
Certain things like free roam, scenario planner 2.0 and new hud settings should really have been there from the start in TSW2. But I think it's...
Sounds like you pretty much nailed it first time. I concur it adds another dimension to the steam driving experience and I've really enjoyed it....
