The issue isn't the game engine. Never has been. The issue is Simugraph, and adapting it to handle steam. The system in TSC is much simpler,...
Would death and destruction increase the potential fare base? I doubt it....
The harsh reality is that DTG is going to set pricing policy based on sales figures, full stop. What you or I or the man down t'pub say on the...
Honestly, the only reason I ever bought it (on sale) was to be able to buy the 182. I'm not sure I've ever played it.
While they're at it, why don't they extend SEHS to Gare du Nord?
Another problem with Amtrak in TSW is station stops- there aren't any. Or rather, there aren't two, which is kind of critical. For example, the...
Not really. It was bundled with TSW3, so I doubt mnany people thought they were "buying it again"
Um, we got a Santa Fe F7 in full warbonnet......
Miami to Orlando is just over 200 miles. Dallas to Houston and LA to Vegas roughly the same. There are some highly particular routes where...
And engender a torches-and-pitchforks mob of players who bought the old version and are demanding they get the new one free.
Once upon a time, coaches used steam heating. This was entirely logical when the traction was a great big teakettle. With dieselization, however,...
I would also observe that DTG have yet to find it necessary to include every coach in a standard passenger consist; notoriously no dining or cafe...
Unfortunately the GP9RM is a very specific CN model, heavily rebuilt, which doesn't look like any other GP9 variant.
Actually, it's their 3D rolling stock modeling which is their strong suit; their trains look brilliant. It's physics and audio they have issues...
After much cajoling, DTG finally gave us keyboard commands to open and close passenger doors. Perhaps they could do the same with coupling/uncoupling
By a genuine extension, I mean a separate module which is purchased independently and plugs into the existing route, like a loco DLC. DTG used to...
On KAH, the 187 will necessarily appear since it has its own layer, it doesn't depend on substitution
I think the way forward is to ditch, as OldVern says, the "up and over the mountain" cliche and do something different, and I think that...
I'm not sure any of this is realistic. DTG have yet to make an actual route extension and have said they never will. What they have done is one...
This was the original [IMG]
I have. In fact, I grew up in Germany. Those excellent regional rail networks exist because there are enough people to create demand. Low...
The main train stations used to be downtown. They went broke. None of your recommendations will alter the fact that New York and Chicago are 1200...
AIUI, the current issue with NA freight is not having access to real locos for photo/sound surveys. We have in part brought this on ourselves,...
Also, I believe 4014 needs a source of HEP for the coaches, since the Big Boy was a freight engine and wasn't built with passenger-coach support.
Amtrak over the first fifty years of its existence lost a billion dollars each and every year. That comes to-- 50 billion dollars. Last year our...
If you want to nit-pick, at least pick an important nit, like the lack of an internal connector between the cabs, or perhaps the fact that the...
Just bought it- one of only three routes in ages I have paid full price for (Niddertal, Blackpool, Salzburg). Quality releases do make more...
[ATTACH] BR 403, Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel-Würzburg
Starting a München-Frankfurt service (ICE 1580), the front coupler door is open, and the coupling-control light is flashing (pushing it engages...
A very easy improvement, since all uploads are tagged, is to enable search-by-tag.
Hmmm- now that is possible. Since I was just starting from a stop, I was only going 2-3 mph when I got tagged, and the loco could well still have...
All right, I've calmed down. The brakes are what they are; blame Bombardier. But I still have to register an objection to the way the cruise...
The assets, sure, but learning how to build the system is another story
Did all of that. Five minutes later, light is still on. Bizarrely, what did seem to wirk was removing the reverser handle and putting it back in....
Except the brake demand light is on, locking out the whole system
Come on, people, surely there is a procedure to recover a 66!
That’s cheatin’
Of course. I just stopped at the signal, remember?
Tried that. No dice.
I LOVEcking HATE the 4024. I absolutely despise that POS! Manually lapped brakes? A cruise control with no numeric feedback, and which neither...
I have been banging my head against this for an hour, but I cannot come up with any combination of control-jiggery and waiting to get the brake...
BUG: Scenario "Spring Morning" (PC/Steam) You are instructed to stop at Cadder, great. Red signal. Contact Signaller, check. Permission to...
You don't have to disengage AFB to apply brakes! Just apply the brakes. (This will lock the throttle out, so you need then to reduce throttle to...

1) LZB isn't anything to worry about, here. I'm not even sure it's installed on the route, since its real purpose is cab signaling at speeds over...
Well, nothing happened because you didn't acknowledge PZB! The warning you see onscreen is a game helper- IRL PZB never signals you or tells you...
Clinchfield would like a word.
You asked for info....
As well it should; the 111 uses the major mechanicals from the 110. It really is in most respects the BR 110B
