I have found a photo of one of the original Derby Lightweights running the Buxton to Millers Dale shuttle in 1956 so presumably it would have...
I am more excited for the Acela and the two German routes than the UK routes. When I saw the hints of a steam route through the Peak district I...
I suspect it will be too late for that, it will be doubling the length of the route.
So will they put in the Buxton shuttle I wonder? Also it seems most expresses don't stop at Ambergate so are we to start a service already moving...
Yes I agree, Derby to Sheffield would have made more sense. I am more excited for the USA and German content than the UK content following this...
Okay I hadn't realised that service every went over to DMU's. A 104 would be lovely. By 1963 I am sure Peaks would have been ousting the steam...
Leicester to Sheffield would have made more sense, a driver wouldn't drive an HST just between Leicester and Derby. It will be nice to see the 158...
Looks great so far and I am glad there is a new steam route but Ambergate is an odd place to start! It would be like starting the Cross City line...
I think I have got the hint lol!
I did wonder :) I thought maybe my knowledge of USA geography was worse than I thought :D!
Thank for the explanation, I wondered if it was an error! So that is where Silicon valley is. I must brush up on my American geography.
I was watching some videos of it and it does look good. I was trying to work out what route 128 station was! I do like the Amtrak Sprinter train...
I was thinking of picking this up or Boston Sprinter in the sale as apart from LIRR and Sandpatch I have few American routes. However both seem to...
I missed all this and am now curious and quite excited for tomorrows stream. Sorry if that upsets some of the very serious people here.
We now know there are a few new routes to be announced. I have gone from "maybe watching the stream" to definately.
It is hardly a big deal, whether or not it was intentional it is leading to discussion, intrigue and some excitement, which for DTG is a good...
I have recently discovered the joy of the German routes and using PZB and the PZB helper is great. Although I keep getting PZB and Sifa mixed up...
Agree with that, I can only think of one person who was banned (twice) and they managed to wind up pretty much everyone on the forum, no matter...
And some would still come on here saying how awful TSW is!
It would be nice if the train you are travelling in had more realistic physics. I wouldn't expect every AI train to have so, though.
I got TSW when the GWE express came out, not being a fan or American freight routes I wasn't interested in the original release. I bought the...
The standard MG Maestro was quicker than the equivalent Golf GTI or Escort XR3i. The turbo was a beast. Mine is just a 1.6 Mayfair but it holds...
Unless you have been hiding under a rock surely you would be aware of all these problems before purchase unless you purchased it straight away I...
BX's were great, you won't find many modern cars with their ride comfort. Modern cars often can't be moved when they go wrong when the "computer...
Hence why I still drive an Austin Maestro, modern cars are souless unless they are particularly sporty! Even those manufacturers like Renault and...
No although they were entering service in reasonably numbers by 1958 they would have been vanishingly rare on this route. Allerton depot which...
Well yes I do agree the type of route or services will make a lot of difference even in a modern route. But the difference in operating different...
This, I feel, (difficulties of the class 101 brakes) surely makes the case for variety in the sim and why it is good to have a mix of old and new,...
Yes it would certainly add some much needed variety and game play if they did so.
And right on cue. Here I am sitting in the cold on Langley Green station as one of these reliable modern trains has broken down and the train...
For me probably LIRR as it doesn't seem busy enough. It wasn't really the immersive, busy commuter route I was expecting.
I am not trying to convince anyone to differ from their interests and I would never try to. I merely would like a simulator which represents as...
Yes I agree with this, I wouldn't expect DTG to abandon its business model. But surely one route out of say five or six being set in the past...
It would be interesting to know what the demographics for model railways/simulators are. I am middle aged but have left model railways behind,...
Well I have never seen anyone say I don't want to drive a class 47 because they used to leak oil in 1990! Also, you are totally misrepresenting...
And what on earth does that matter when making DLC for a simulator? Next time I see a model of a GWR branch line at an exhibition, I shall...
I would say you are wrong, we all have our own different interests, just because you grew up in that era and have no interest in the trains of...
I agree with this, I had the opposite view, that modern trains were boring, I didn't drive them much in TSC but have done more so in TSW, as there...
I have been playing SOS quite a lot and it is a better experience. Although the lack of AI loco sounds are grating. Hopefully they will be fixed...
London Midland you really should be working for DTG/Rivet. Your pack may even attain them more sales as like above your enhancement pack is more...
I haven't delved into the TSW scenario planner yet. I have used the TSC scenario editor a lot and despite it throwing a hissy fit at times you can...
I agree with the points in the opening post. London commuter shows what can be done, for me it is the most immersive TSW UK route and I was...
I was going to get this when I heard that the braking issue was not an issue, however reading the comments I will wait at least to see if any of...
Well yes that is true there are lots of people calling for older routes which is why it is confusing when they apparently aren't popular. But...
Thanks for the reply Matt, on what I know is a busy day. That has made me feel a happier to have some clarification and to hear nothing is ruled...
Well I am only going on what has been interpreted by comments from the "horses mouth" so to speak. I expect the majority of routes to be modern...
If comments by the executive producer are interpreted correctly then we will only be seeing "modern" content from DTG for TSW and looking at the...
So that not only rules out BR diesels/electrics, it also rules out steam as well! It also rules out much of the early privitisation period too!...
Hear, hear, I could handle the lack of BR routes a lot more if we had more variety to the more modern routes. Hopefully the Skyhook route will...
