Thank you for jumping in here. I didn‘t know your team worked on the 204 as well :D I guess then that the 204 will stay the way it is. No one is...
That‘s disheartening. I‘ll probably raise a ticket for this later on. I doubt it‘ll do anything, but it can‘t hurt to try.
Interesting point. Perhaps we should try finding a cab ride to get a feel for it. Pretty sure it‘s been this way since the original release for...
Hey there, after some months of not using the Br 204, I revisited it today. One thing that‘s been bugging me is the throttle. It would appear to...
Already created a thread here. We paid for LZB with our gauge lights :D
I think this is a performance issue. This happened to me regularly on SKA and RRO on PS4. Since I got my PS5, it didn't happen once. Maybe this'll...
Check this on page 33/34. It‘s an F2/F3 manual, but the underlying process should still be roughly the same. In essence, the way the traction...

This is beautiful :D Thanks for sharing, Tom Fresco.
On a keyboard, the [H] key is responsible for headlights. With the DB locos (from your post, I gather you‘re mostly talking about TRAXX locos),...
Agreed. I‘m just finishing up the Nora turn at which point I‘ll have done everything (apart from some mainline runs) at least once. There is still...
My guess is as follows: When you‘re standing still (especially while shunting), the TSW2020 indicator was ambiguous. You couldn‘t deduct from the...
There are subclasses in Germany, but the differences are mostly concerning the electric equipment and the possibility of operation in different...
Pretty much, yeah.
It's not about not wanting to be associated with. If I recall correctly, Sam talked about the BNSF situation recently and what it boils down to is...
Seems like the preview streams are getting more interesting with every article. We already had dynamic brakes, banking comm and sounds on our list...
Curious about this as well.
Probably the best choice. Have fun :D
Oh, was the situation described by solicitr about the exit signal showing 90? If so, then yes, LZB will absolutely know about it. I though the...
I think I read the same thing (in German) in the official manual, too. All it means is that if the exit signal for the LZB sector (LZB sectors...
Ok, this is where we have to go deeper into LZB workings. In the manual, I found this: [ATTACH] Roughly translated: When the LZB Ende process is...
10s and 1700m have no correlation whatsoever. 1700m is the distance between LZB Ende flashing and the actual end of LZB. 10s is the time you have...
Interesting question. I think this would be accurate for real life. PZB is always running in the background - meaning that if there is a speed...
At most, 1700m before the actual end of LZB. My source is once more the official LZB manual. [ATTACH]
Concerning the video: Nothing new was said in it. Most of the video is about dealing with LZB malfunctions (interesting, but unfortunately...
Are you sure? For me, electric/dynamic brake, direct/independent brake and train/auto brake keys all work on both PS4 and 5. Edit: In TSW2, that...
As far as I can tell, all controls do work on Playstation as well (including the new door controls), but [CTRL][-] doesn‘t work to this day while...
Feel free to do that. If you‘re still having problems, I‘m happy to help you out as best I can :)
It sounds to me like the rest of the consist may be the problem. Did you ensure that both your lead loco and your trailing loco (and rear DPUs if...
We‘re talking about DPU, not MU operations. MU is what you see in the screenshots - multiple locos directly linked together. DPU operations have...
It‘s not the SPG SD40-2 in the picture. If you compare the pictures, it‘s obviously the model for TSW2020s GP40-2: [ATTACH] Steam
Orientrot or orient red
Great post, Jo_Kim. Still the best looking ICE in my opinion :D
That is the danger of listening to other people :D The scenery of CRR is a bit hit and miss. For me, ~80% of the scenery is stunning - the rest...
This one is interesting. If you look at Skyhook‘s GP40-2 model in this thread (see quote below), you‘ll notice that it‘s also missing the front...
+1. The dynamic brake issue has never been addressed since launch and two US releases in a row (C40-8W and CRR) lacked the banking comm.
Skyhook may say that it‘s an SD40, but that doesn‘t change the fact that the picture shows the TSW2020 GP40-2 model. Something went wrong here :D
Good question. Maybe the guide by Rudolf has a list of them. I‘d check there. With the exception of [CTRL][-] for changing between groups of...
I agree with all you said. The most important part of a route for me is usually the loco - visually but especially the handling. That‘s why the...
There is a button on the left side of the driver's desk if I recall correctly, but it doesn't work for some reason. You'll have to use the switch...
Did I hear wrong DoStos again? :D I appreciate all of the inaccuracies being pointed out by our American enthusiasts. Personally, I found the...
It's prototypical. Speed restrictions <40 km/h (10/20/30 km/h) are usually protected by an active 500 Hz magnet.
That‘s why I said :)
I'm in two minds about (the new) Rapid Transit. On the one hand, I do like the new timetable. The inclusion of the Br 143 is a big plus for me as...
^ This. The up/hold/down is there for malfunctions. Should the Nachlaufsteuerung (it's the German term for the system that lets the loco dial up...
This is a tough one. The MP36 (+cab car) is great. Its brakes are a lot more simplistic to operate and the cab is awesome. Additionally, it‘s not...
Don‘t have HLL, that‘s correct. And him is fine :D
I‘m not getting into the entire argument going on right now, but as far as I know, that only applies to a PS4 game played on PS5 (or previously a...
I just tested it on PS5. I used the DB Br 182 with a custom scenario on SKA. End of LZB worked as intended. I could release the LZB control with...
As a German, I can say that this is the correct way to say Siemens: [MEDIA] I don't speak French, but this agrees with how I'd pronounce...
