It’s not un-prototypical from what I’ve been told. Even if you run freight trains that could run at 120km/h, it might make more sense to order a...
So, I wanted to look further into running vintage traction on WCMLS. There were two criteria I was looking for: the run would have to have at...
I don’t know if it was always there or recently added, but playing around with the expert 101 today, I found out that you can actually call the...
Thank you for your kind words, lcyrrjp. As I said, this run did feel special to me in just how well it went. I had another read through your...
Don’t give me hope… ;) That much is true. I’ve mostly mentioned the 140 in relation to LFR and vintage content in general but it’s good to keep...
Happy I could help :D
That's not the fuel gauge, it's for the cooling water. The newer 363s in real life have an LED fuel gauge on the outside of the cab, but it's not...
Took me a long time, but I finally got around to it. This is my first attempt at the run after a long hiatus from the Jubilee's footplate. You...
lcyrrjp, agreed that a run with at least one stop in it would make things more interesting. The 86 certainly feels right at home on WCMLS. In the...
I highly doubt a German/mainland European 66 is in the cards as an Expert loco. The upside would be though that we would actually get a driveable...
Was the tap changer in the off position? I’ve noticed that the MCB cannot be closed (automatically or by you) if the tap changer is left in hold...
I’ve never heard that personally. Usually just “Class” still pronounced in English (or as close as most people here get), but without the 66 often...
Wait, what? That’s brilliant. I’ve been waiting for this to happen. That is an amazing addation, for sure.
That does sound a little better - thank you for your detailed report. I think I’ll wait and see for now. Work leaves me precious little free time...
I mean, I’d be game if you have anything up your sleeve :) For … reasons ;) … I’m getting a little bit of route learning in on WCML South, but I...
Thanks to all who have reported back on the state of PS5 gameplay. I was cautiously optimistic after the E94 pack didn’t have blurry textures, but...
Anyone played this on PS5 yet? The comments from dal#7945 seem rather damning. Between the unplayable Frankfurt expert timetable (on PS5) and the...
On a positive note, I very much appreciated that the "A Helping Hand" scenario gave you enough time to properly change ends each time and still...
It could fit on Niddertalbahn (Coming with a separate timetable). I don't think there is much that dates the route to the 90s overall. But then...
I agree, OldVern. The loss of CalTrain content going forward is unfortunate, but solely down to the marketing decision from the bean counters to...
Last time (TSW4->TSW5), DTG somehow managed to make things worse on PS5 with weirdly overlapping files that confused both the console and the user...
I certainly hope not. Especially seeing how all of these fixes seem minor to me. A fix for the inaccessible P/G valve on the 194 or the empty coal...
I chose Nahverkehr Dresden and Bremen - Oldenburg. For DRA, it’s because it was the first route with the newer physics, so it’s just naturally...
Are there any loaded coal trains? I drove an empty coal train yesterday and noticed that all coal trains in both directions at this time were...
Thanks, I didn’t know. Hopefully that will be corrected quickly.
That could be it. Would also explain why the PS5 still has modern markings on the 218 while everybody else seems to have era-appropriate ones.
Absolutely. When I had your livery spawn in, I had to check up close to figure out if I was looking at TSGs’ or yours.
It was coupling to an LFR-native Tadgs, I believe. So, the issue was most likely with that then. Having played around a bit more now, my feelings...
First impressions: I have only played one scenario so far due to time constraints. The 194 (classic Bundesbahn one, haven’t touched the modern...
In hope of finding an answer here: Has anyone found the P/G brake mode switchover on the old 194? It should have one as far as I know since the...
I don’t think that is the case. The side of the loco states two different brake weights for P and G setting. That only makes sense to me if there...
Has anyone found the P/G brake mode switch on the old 194? I can’t seem to find it either in the machine room or on the bogies. The manual makes...
They’re only allowed 160km/h under LZB supervision from what I remember. Under PZB, vmax is 140km/h.
AmityBlight, the Expert 101 timetable for Frankfurt - Fulda is also where I have to detract points from TSG. For me on PS5, it’s completely...
Quite diappointing to hear we’ll have mint green n-Wagen and orient red 110s in a 1984 timetable. Wouldn’t it at least be possible to set up...
True. I think we’ve even talked about this before - it’ll be a bit of a wild mix, but I’m sure the end result will feel more real than the...
It’s a somewhat firm “no” from me for anything fictional/de-branded. I could accept compromises with branding if no other option exists (based on...
lcyrrjp, I do think you’re being a bit humble. I’d say you matched the schedule very nicely indeed. Great job on your run! :) As always with a...
Me too. It’s “ocean-blue/beige”. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone call it anything else. I’m not sure if the console release is the finished...
Very excited for this indeed. As others have noted, the screenshot of the orient red 110 and mint green n-Wagen is very odd for a 1984 timetable....
Wrong track running and written orders will be a treat and push the 101 even further towards realism (now more on a railway operational level...
The gift that keeps on giving. That sounds like a fantastic little addition.
I noticed that before - a very worthwhile endeavour to my mind. It does look much better than the identical cars on other routes :) Plus the much...
It has caught my eye that TSG seem to be keen to expand the vintage coach selection (the IC coaches even if they’re compromises, the Silberlinge,...
I probably will. I have no idea how Sony handles re-downloading delisted content, so I think I’ll keep TSW 5 and the Caltrain DLCs installed...
It’s another reason why more options and toggles are essential for custom liveries. I have a sizeable collection of vintage CC liveries for...
+1 for the 189. They’re lovely locos in real life. Still would love to see the heavy ore trains with either the double 151s or double 189s at some...
I have also noticed this on my PS5. In case you need the service number (like for the expert 101), it still shows up correctly for me in the...
JustWentSouth, and Callum B., LeadCatcher, thank you very much for keeping this thread going and catalogued for as long as it has. I don’t think...
Curious that it will be a completely new loco. That throws my bet on an expert 185 out of the race. I’m still holding out hope that it will be a...
