What's a driver in training to do when the users' manual and the tutorial do not agree? I gave the tutorial a try before locating the manual, but...
Some day (perhaps) I'll learn to research before I write. A search of Amazon's U.S. cite turned up a variety of possibilities, including both the...
Where is that users manual???????
This is really beside the point, but I just feel compelled to mention that this thread shares a title with one of the best TV police detective...
I seem to remember that some 3rd party routes or train sets for TSxxxx include in-train passenger announcements. Even better, some of the routes...
Um, isn't the sun rising during this scenario? In either case, there's nothing wrong with the gradually developing sky colors.
I ran this remarkable switching scenario a couple of days ago without any problems, but it does take far more thinking than passenger or long-run...
Well, there are already groups of folks wandering the tracks inside some stations in GWE; and although I suspect that they have "strayed" from the...
Just for the record, I like vocal instructions together with text, too. That's what we got with the scenarios included in the original CSX and TSW...
I'd also like to see some freight operations added to GWE -- provided that such things do exist on the real route, of course. On the other hand,...
Yep, although I required some help from a member of the TSW team. Turns out that after buying from DTG, one has to get a product code and then...
AHA! After trying to find the origin of one of those "X yards" doodads, I gave up and the scenario ended gracefully anyway -- maybe I'll go back...
These speculative threads are sometimes entertaining -- up to a certain point -- and nearly always good for some laughs as the truth eventually...
While driving near Clarksville, TN yesterday as twilight turned into darkness, I realized that I was looking at the same sky depicted in the...
Although rescue jobs have become very hackneyed in TS, this one struck me as worthwhile for the enhanced realism if nothing else. By the way, I...
Actually, DTG has already produced a number of really good German routes for TS20xx, so they've already accomplished a lot of research. I trust...
I also thought those skies rather bizarre, but some of the effects of sun streaming into the cab are marvelous [ATTACH] [ATTACH] .
Being invaded by a robot vs. by a human -- it's still an invasion and here's hoping that DTG is cooking up a plan to put an end to it.
I don't even have this DLC because I made the serious mistake of purchasing it from DTG instead of through Steam. This is ridiculous!
Do not buy the new DLC for TSW from Dovetail Games. I made this mistake this afternoon, using Paypal. Paypal sent me a confirmation email within...
I see that we've been hacked -- call the clean-up crew -- fast! And let's all stay away from the possibly poisonous mess in the meantime.
Okay, here's my 2-cents worth: How about another combined freight and passenger effort with the DE BR Voith Gravita shunting freight? "If wishes...
So inject a bit of imagination; for example, a scenario in which an old hand remembers what shunting the hump was like "back in the good-old-days"...
I'm in favor of editing, especially scenario/session writing; and since this isn't among the specific (and somewhat limited) offered options, let...
I apologize for treading on your private space.
Certainly in the United States and I seem to recall reading about some in Europe as well. Perhaps it wasn't clear that I had shifted to citing the...
Thanks for these new images, Daniel -- now I see what you mean and how peculiar it is -- hope that this helps the TSW team resolve this oddity....
Well, Daniel, I have to admit that I've seen those peculiar black streaks and wondered what they might be, but that does not convince me of the...
Yes, as some respondents have claimed, with "practice" multi-tasking is possible even in TSW, but I'm with MontyShrew in thinking that a...
My feeling about this is that very tight timings are imposed simply because DTG believes that rail simulator fans want nothing more than to...
And yet, I haven't seen it anywhere.
Which engine is this?
When all else fails, read the instructions; if that doesn't suffice, follow them.
Are you sure that's a brake hose? What's it connected to?
Maybe it was dress-up-for-work day or one of those peculiar British hols like wrestling day -- or is that boxing?
Isn't this covered in the admittedly skimpy user's manual?
This is an interesting idea, especially since I imagine that a real-life driver would know the timetable through experience -- or perhaps a copy...
One of the most interesting aspects of this and other TSW forums is the continual conflict between those who want realistic simulation and those...
A timetable is already included in the Sand Patch user manual.
Excuse me, but isn't this forum dedicated to TSW? Other forums and discussion sites exist for TS, of that I'm very sure.

While waiting for my departure time, I spotted this group of wanderers: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Good work, Daniel, but requires alternately driving and looking at your instructions; did you set TSW to windowed mode? Efforts like this should...
I got bogged down at that point, too. After several tries, I figured out that reaching the coupling point required an act of blind faith, so I...
Just for the record, I've noticed this in numerous spots along the line as well. Sometimes not even a road-bed ahead, sometimes just rails...
Thanks, all: especially Jay, the only one not just guessing.
Freight???????
Based on what I've seen in this route in TS, there would be plenty of freight opportunities as well, especially shunting. I'll add my vote for...
Time for me to publicly demonstrate my ignorance -- yet again. As I drive the GWE route, I see long stretches of track without any sign of...
As many of you know, I'm a freight fan, and not even all freight: switching/shunting preferred. Thus, over the years, I have shown no respect for...
