Actually, CJP could be considered to be sorta fast US freight route, because if i'm not mistaken, in real life intermodal and autorack train...

Geez, the OP also posted it on Facebook?

The OP clearly never played ETS2 or any Flight Sim games before. XD :D

Did you actually move the brake lever to release position?

You need to cut in the automatic brake and set the engine's independent brake to lead.

Maybe i bring this up too much already but, from now on, on every new US/North American freight route, if the team still couldn't bring the real...

For the OP, are you one of the said company representative? lol

Go check it out, it's indicated by a simple "D" marking on the cutoff lever indicator, situated in between 50-60%.

The Drifting cutoff position on the Jubilees and the 8Fs is indicated at around 55-60% (both forward and backward) i believe. I read somewhere...

So there is no need to set the cutoff lever to Drift position during coasting?

Hello guys. Just asking (no strictly relevant to today's update). By any means, I'm not a steam engines expert. But when you already gain some...

I should say I'm pretty impressed by the route. Perhaps getting it on the next sale whenever it is.

I'm doing really really fine with the auto fireman. Even managed to set the safety valve off at 80 mph. :D

Looks like a good idea. I don't think the Jubilees are designed to comfortably cruising at 90 mph, since it's shaking very hard at that speed (in...

I managed to get The Manxman service to 90 mph, yes it take some times to accelerate to 90 mph since it's not a diesel nor an electric traction. I...

Thanks, good to know. What reverser setting are you on? Just trying an 5:31 express service, my train sped up top 90 mph quite easily.

How about CJP SD70ACe banking comm capabilities? Is it brought to the ES44C4 standard? Is the banking comm button aslo overtake/control the DP...

Im second to this. Mixing SD70ACe and ES44C4 makes controlling the train's speed a bit difficult since SD70ACe's banking comm did not take over...

You summarized it very very well. I agreed with every single one of your points.

I do wonder how DTG team discussing and/or proposing a potentially new route. They need to be more transparent on that sector in my opinion. I...

I believe it is. I hope it's gonna be CSX since CSX was the first US Class 1 RR presented in TSW and it's been about 5-6 years since TSW: CSX HH...

Buying CCB is the biggest mistake i've made in TSW. Period.

I set my reverser to 20-25% and regulator at 50%. Yes eventually the pressure goes back up but it looks very slow increase. Is it supposed to be...

Yes i can confirm this, steam pressure dropping no matter what regulator & reverser settings.

Ah yes a new DLC, a bit weird choice of era & region. An easy pass for me.

Tbh a bit weird to choose this era & this region. If only they make ECML in the LNER era (not todays LNER) with new engines.

They're absolutely the best. I'm only 23 yrs old but their tunes accompany me on day to day basis.

No update regarding BNSF SD70ACe banking comm capabilities to match the already good ES44C4 banking comm?

That's because as far as i'm aware, slow train such as manifest often routed via Track 3 in real life. Too bad DTG didn't completed this section...

Found the setting and sure enough it isn't enabled by default. I'm on Win 10 22H2 Pro. Gonna give it a try to how it affect the gameplay.

Woohooo that's some serious modding. Thanks for sharing this.

Agree

Yes that's true IRL. Real life DPUs react automatically everytime a BP reduction is detected and automatically bail off their independent. But...

The ironic thing is, we railfans are here and willing to help and gives feedback & suggestion, yet they didn't ask or listening. And now they got...

I was excited when i operates the CJP ES44C4 for the first time back then and it's a game changer. Now that interesting to know that this feature...

Yes, it's look like the SD70ACe Banking Comm button only overtake the reverser, power handle and dynamic brake handle of the fake DPU.

And to complement that, im also running the scenario that comes with the SD70ACe, titled "Manifest Madness" that had 2+0+1 engines formation (2...

No if you select an SD70ACe as a lead engine. I run that 14,000+ tons grain train that have 4+2+2 engines formation and select an SD70ACe as a...

Yes but then the DP won't bail off their independent brake and they're not generating any dynamic brake effort. Only using the auto brake is not...

Just make it similarly to the ES44C4 and you're done, that's it. No need the real fancy DPU stuff for now. Am i asking too much for that?

I've raised this issue a few times already but didn't get any response in return. Quite frustrating to drive a heavy manifest with the SD70ACe on...

6-8 pound reduction is within the normal initial reduction/first application range. Actually the SD70ACe (both Sherman Hill & CJP version)...

This is what we need.

The idea sounds good. Sorry for tagging, DTG Matt Actually i have one important request if it's possible and not needing a lot of works, bring the...

Why we wouldn't? The US content level of quality never get that high on their eyes.

It behaves similarly with the SMH SD70ACe. So i can safely assume that the old SMH DP units behavior. (Not mirroring our braking input). What a shame.

The one guy that sacrifices his money to make a very honest feedback & review. If only DTG check that out.

Still no DTG representative in sight so far.

A fair argument, I'm on the same side with this.
