Thanks for that. I shall look at having a trip up there in the summer.
I have found a couple at the Erlestoke Manor fund shop at Bewdley on the Severn Valley railway thinking about it. I intend to have a trip there...
I am sure it is fun. For me personally it is the lack of realism which I can't get past, but each to their own.
Reading this is making me even more pleased that I didn't take the plunge and purchase this pack. If it is supposed to be set pre 1975/76 then...
I have been searching out WTT's as I like using them when making scenarios for TS1 and I now have quite a collection, they are fascinating to read...
I don't think working timetables always matched passenger timetables. In the 1968 working timetable the dwell time at Reading appears to be either...
I think the loads in the working timetable would not have included the loco just the stock but I am happy to be corrected. It states "load of...
How many carriages do the trains in the pack have?
Two examples. According to the 1968 WTT a 420 tonne load with a class 47 or 52 leaves Reading General at 10:50 and arrives at Paddington at...
I have a 1968 and 1975/76 working timetables for the route if someone wants to give me some times I will check them. I don't have the pack myself.
It isn't their product!
There is certainly a noticeable difference. I am not even interested in Clinchfield but I might get it as the screenshots are very appetising. As...
I have seen a record somewhere of a class 45 ending up at Paddington, so it happened but very rare. Laira had an allocation of class 46's so their...
If you choose the class 101 in blue modification does it ensure only those show up in timetable mode? Also, can you choose which layers appear in...
Yes the Stourbridge Lion. The foundary it was built in Foster and Rastrick, has been restored and converted into a health centre. It is where my...
I would love to see the JT version backdated. Driving a Hydraulic from Paddington to Bristol or Cardiff in realistic surroundings would be great.
Well Jamie was getting 60fps. I thought the route looked good, I like the stock and the stations in particular and there are nice little details....
I am glad there is another one of us then! I have been wondering if I am the only one and being unreasonable!
I am not talking in this instance obviously, but the coming years! Do they want to create a variety of routes covering different periods or...
I suspect they will come as most of those are still in service so they can paint them in this bright colourful modern colours! But why can't they...
I would rather spend the money on add-ons to make something realistic. It depends on how you view the simulator really, is it just driving trains...
I think it depends on the person. I want to recreate the 1970's railway as closely and most realistically as possible, GWE with the BR blue pack...
I wouldn't mind some older period routes which they ran. Some of the Norfolk branch lines set in the 60's with a suitable steam engine and maybe a...
Personally I can't, the route being modern I can deal with funnily enough. The incorrect and incorrectly liveried DMU is a massive no, the...
I can't say that is my experience of WMT, well pre-Covid anyway. There were almost daily problems, train turning up short formed, or not at all,...
Yes I have had it a few years, I think I bought it when it was first released. It will be interesting to see what developments occur, I think the...
I don't think Margaret Thatcher was interested in privatising the railways, certainly that is what I have gleaned from documentaries from those in...
Okay thanks I hadn't realised that, I thought it was built into the trains themselves, something new I have learnt. I will try that doing some...
Not everyone does think it is a failure to be honest, many long term commuters I know think the railways are in far better shape then they were 30...
This is a very good point. Apart from Jamie who appears to be genuinely enthusiastic you barely see anyone else over on the TS1 forums and it...
I have noticed the class 421/423 sound pack seems to lack joint sounds especially over points which is quite immersion breaking, especially with...
I have both installed but spend far more time in TS1 as there is so much content plus you can make much more complex scenarios. For example I can...
Yes I would like to see that being a resident on the route. There is a freeware Chiltern route on UKTS which covers the route as far as...
I think the Kyle line predates 2018, that was when it was available on Steam I think. I have had it a few years but have barely driven it. From...
I loved the class 304's, used to travel on them a lot around Birmingham. I might be imagining things regarding the class 166, there were...
Don't add your class 166's to your scenarios yet, it seems I may well be wrong about the Cornish mainline.
Oh okay. I am certain when I was at Cardiff a year ago or so there was one working a Penzance service.
Personally I think that is a slightly odd bit of reasoning on his part. There are plenty of suitable routes. They work down to Penzance, they work...
Well some have driven the complete ECML. Holyhead to Swansea would be a very scenic journey and quite varied to I think it could be popular. I...
I have often mentioned the idea of more of the IHH catalogue being released, it gets met with a wall of silence. I have some of his catalogue but...
It is amazing how entitled and non-self aware some people are! I am still surprised we haven't seen a up to date class 165/166 with the amount of...
I would like to see a route based around Inverness set maybe in the 1970's with the a class 40, class 26 and the class 120 sets allocated there in...
Intentional pun? :D
Apparently the pack isn't supposed to be realistic. Why they didn't include some mark 1's in blue and grey rather than just the coaches from NTP...

Class 08?
My Austin/Leyland Maxi is still going strong after 44 years, rarely misses a beat and when it does I can fix it without needing 100's of pounds...
Vulcan Productions has some good reskins of the class 45 including class 46 variants. You do need the AP class 47 sound pack which is worth...
I do agree. They should have seen it coming then. John Betjeman is on record as station in the early 1960's that the roads were already getting...
I shall smarten up my act, it was only because I was prevaricating on what to call it! As an aside I think that route has survived the best of...
