It's a major stop on the NEC about 10 miles out of Boston, located at the intersection of Rt. 128, which is a beltway around the city, and US 95,...
The only serious problem with Boston is the signalling, although it seems to be working for me now. But it is the only true " Rush Hour " route...
Ooh, you're really all over the poor guy today. You're gonna make him maa-ad. ( unless he has a sense of humor, which he does kinda seem to have...
Well, I'm glad I saved my pennies for those things who's names cannot be spoken. I was pondering a couple of things in the current sale, but I...
I think it's interesting to note what is not on sale. Older routes like Oakville, LIRR, BML, BPE. Whereas some fairly recent routes, like BCC are...
Well, that's A 10 year old route in a fire sale. Just thinkin'..........
It's like all of these one- train routes. They may be well modeled and the train itself may be good, but, after a few runs from A to B ( to C in...
I'm well aware of that, been playing MSTS, TSC and TSW for 20 years, thank you very much. I just wondered if it was a leak to an announcement.
Philly to NYC. Is that TSW3?
I bought every dlc available for TSW 2020 and TSW2, but since TSW3 was released, I've become much more selective. I don't like paying full price...
Not quite what you said, I think, but I'll accept your clarification. Have a good day.
Using either one is just pure laziness. Use " because ".
Everything you need to play the TSC route is included, including 2 locos ( 170, 37 ) and half a dozen scenarios. You don't need to " hunt down "...
Also noticed passengers opening the doors and alighting from the train while it was still moving. Ah, those slam door days, gone forever.
So do I. I think the RD is eminently suited to the 101, makes it fun to drive.
A fair analysis except that, like some other posters, you're missing the medium haul Amtrak services that are found in a number of areas, notably...
Speaking for myself, if the E-G had come with a 170 and, perhaps, a Class 37 and been set just a few years ago, I would likely have snapped it up...
The problem with the modern trains in all three TSW countries is that they are too easy to drive and don't ask anything of the player. They are "...
Interesting analysis. You've managed to touch on some very prescient aspects of the game which come up frequently on the forums. Optimization is...
Crazier thing is all those places you mention are more than a thousand miles away. But I get your point.
Yes, I was just thinking that this morning as I was shoveling snow around the house for about the 50th year running. I could have spent my life...
It's annoying yes, but that's all it is. Your anger is misplaced. I'm sure DTG doesn't want this to continue and will solve it asap. A little...
I believe it's Gary and a couple of others. They started with scenario packs and recently have produced entire routes. Their work is top notch in...
Remarkable work. I don't do mods usually, but if I ever get this route I think I would have to use these. You have to question why the signal...
I think that's right. Quite a few one or two person developers have made routes and locos for TSC, because the editors and development tools are...
Well, how many times do you want to make the same run? Time of day and weather variants would be enough for many players. Baltimore - Washington...
Well, you've joined the other ill- informed forum members who don't know diddly- squat about Amtrak and its activities. Amtrak is a lot more than...
Curiously, Raildriver also has a built-in " rumble " speaker which actually works, but I never use it because it requires a separate electrical...
I agree. In that sense BML, BCC and E to G feel like full " journeys " . It's always more satisfying to drive a complete route. Much as I enjoy...
Yes, I think many of us thought BML was the start of a new era in TSW. But then, Rush Hour passengers never arrived and, except for BPE, haven't...
Agree wholeheartedly. Reading between the lines and based on what we've actually seen, my impression is that DTG itself is unlikely to produce an...
Really? And how many TSW players from around the world have the intimate knowledge of this train to be able to notice either of these details?...
Dear Developer: At this point in time, 5 years into the game's development, I think, as players and consumers, we have the right to expect a...
I didn't notice this amount of scorn heaped on those who complained that the internal PIS on the 385 has the " wrong font ", or is that a real...
" If you take care of the small things, the big things take care of themselves. " - Emily Dickinson. Meaning: Attention to detail is an...
You know people complain about the color of the ballast, the accuracy of station lights, the height of the grass, the number of trees, missing...
This is one heck of a thread - terrific reading!
I disagree. The original forums were full of discussions about problems and bugs. And, anyway, not all problems are technical, many are simply...
Very, very briefly at the end of the stream. Not enough to judge how effective it is. But, just like Birmingham, it didn't give the impression of...
Most of the electrical connections that would transmit power from the catenary to the traction motors seem to be missing. I mean I might not have...
I just watched the stream, skipped around some because I wasn't seeing anything particularly riveting. The route and the train look well- modeled,...
Good for you londonmidland, but there's something seriously wrong and embarrassing when it's necessary for you to correct developer shortcomings...
Look at it this way. PS players will be able to take advantage of the reviews from PC and XBOX users before they hit the buy button. I'm on PC but...
Castles in the air
Well, comparing the driver's view from a steam engine to that of a modern emu is, quite frankly, preposterous. Steam engines were used in an era...
I'm willing to give Rivet all the credit they deserve for Edinburgh- Glasgow, depending on the preview stream and forum reviews, but, in the end,...
I initially went with TSW3 simply to play Cajon Pass, and I'm glad I did. Otherwise there really is very little reason to " upgrade " unless you...
Agreed. Baltimore- DC is the dullest part of the NEC with a handful of Amtrak services and few intermediate stops. Without MARC, the route would...
Is that why so many boys ( and girls ) want to be engine drivers when they grow up. ;) ( At least that was true of my generation ).
New York to New Haven is about 80 miles, probably a little too long for the current TSW parameter, though Cajon is 85, but that's a rural diesel...
