Concerning wheel slip: Concerning PZB/LZB lights:

You wouldn‘t happen to remember the service number, would you? I‘d be happy to check if I‘ve missed something.

Glad I could help you, synthetic.angel. I hope the PZB lights get fixed soon as well. Even with an external keyboard, it‘s quite annoying :) Just...

I have played ~25 of the 30 services and never once got a wrong 1000Hz magnet. Are you aware of the Geschwindigkeitsprüfabschnitte? Check out the...

Might I ask how it‘s broken? It worked for me and I haven‘t seen anyone reporting this issue yet. There are workarounds. Spawn on foot and take...

Well, it happens to real drivers as well (without any emergency situation). Take a look at this - timestamp 24:41 if you can understand a bit of...

Are you on mobile, perhaps? If so, rotate your phone to be sideways. Then, you should see them; they‘re called English PZB instructions and PZB -...

It all seems a lot when you first see it, but it‘s somewhat intuitive. With the speed boards, for example, you see that there are 3 classes of...

You can find all you need to know about acknowledging speed boards in the red and the brown links below this post.

I actually can‘t say. I have to admit that I haven‘t calculated the PZB mode for any train in TSW yet and usually just go with my gut. I know...

The actual calculation for the PZB modes is done via Bremshundertstel. You divide the brake weight of the train by the actual weight and then...

I agree. I loved the combo of Matt and Sam for preview streams. Matt had the inside knowledge of why and how something was done (or wasn‘t done)...

Just throwing in my 2 cents. HBK/HBL seems to be killed by a thousand cuts. I think we can agree on the scenery being good. Hamburg Hbf looks...

I‘d like some clarity on substitution. What locos substitute on Hamburg-Lübeck? Does the Hamburg-Lübeck rolling stock substitute on other routes?...

If I remember the spot you're talking about correctly, the HUD is showing you the shunting signal[IMG] This happens a lot on German routes. You'll...

Thank you for your kind words and good luck! :)

Yeah, I get that :D It can get quite hectic when you're surprised by a restrictive signal. It most certainly does. I've heard it enough to know...

Currently an issue on PS only, but with two workarounds, one of which you already found.

Very happy that my link helped you! Yes, the Geschwindigkeitsprüfabschnitte (as they're called in German) are not explained in any TSW...

Ah, didn‘t know Matt covered signals as I never watched that video. I haven‘t got the time to watch the video now, but I‘m not sure if he went...

Thank you for sharing this. I just watched it and not knowing much about it previously, it was a fascinating watch. Fascinating how much of the...

It seems that the Br 101 DLC is absolutely packed with user errors/misinterpretations labeled bugs. Perhaps Matt should consider doing a video on...

Sorry to go a little off-topic here, but I'd like to explain why this is the case. From your post, I assume that you're used to AWS? There's a...

You get overlays by completing mastery challenges. You can see these challenges in two ways: When you start up the game, there will be a mastery...

I do own the C40-8W but didn't drive it in the video. The engines you saw in use were the AC4400CW and the SD40-2. It's the text that appears...

Not as far as I‘m aware. Technically, the throttle is your tractive force selector (it‘s even called that in German), but that‘s another discussion.

I think it‘s the speed. HRR is one of the fastest German routes in game (apart from LZB routes SKA and HMA) as your train routinely hits 160 km/h....

breblimator has a MU/DPU set-up guide in his signature. There's also a video tutorial made by me in my signature called MU/DPU video tutorial...

I‘m sad I didn‘t see this thread on Friday. Gotta say - this made me chuckle a lot more than it should have :D

That‘s prototypical. The green/yellow aspect indicating a 40 km/h speed limit is not supposed to be used as a warning of an upcoming red. It is...

Exactly. I remember you have been dabbling with SPG, matjamca. Think of how long it takes an SD40-2 to get dynamic braking going when you‘re in...

Most of the time. Blended braking is the way to go in Germany. You‘ll notice that operating the train brake operates the electric brake...

They work in scenarios, but not in timetable mode. There are two workarounds: Spawn on foot and take over the service. Reload the loco.Move the 8...

Amazing work, thank you for posting this. Matt said in a stream (can‘t remember which one) that magnetic brakes are not modeled in TSW at the...

Oh yes. Imagine if we got the heavy ore trains with automatic couplings and double 151s. That would be an absolute beast to control :D Just a...

Check Maik‘s posts on super slip.

I agree. I joked about the Br 155 in my previous post and don‘t get me wrong - I still love the 155 in TSW, but there‘s no real debate about the...

That‘s because they were only bought due to being allowed to be run into Austria for freight trains. Once the Br 185 was allowed to go there, the...

Really? They were down for Matt in the release stream.

I get your feeling. I really do, but I can understand why DTG re-release the 182. The one we‘ve got with RT is a dead end - in the configuration...

No problem :)

See this thread for all of the strategies and tactics for this run.

I‘ll do my best to explain. I‘m sure I‘ll be corrected if what I‘m saying is wrong. Once your train is started up and rolling (just a little bit...

I‘ve seen a few freight trains be held up by my Br 101 IC service and I‘ve also had to wait for freight trains to pass me while doing IC services....

That would actually be against regulations in Germany. You‘d need an order for a shunting move to move your train again once you‘ve stopped before...

That was very helpful! Thank you a lot for taking the time to answer my questions :)

:o:( <Insert sad Energiecontainer> [ATTACH] In all seriousness though, I do agree that the 101 is in a league of its own and I absolutely love...

Thank you for correcting this. I‘ll edit my post to reflect this. Might I ask what the exact difference between super and macro slip is? I think,...

Well, the Dash 8 was fixed quite a few months after release, so maybe we‘ll see a fix for it a months from now. Seems to be the best chance we‘ve got.
