This sounds like it will be a lot of fun to play. I don't know much about the German route yet, but, coupled with the BML, the Rush Hour package...

Amen to all that, though I'm not having any throttle trouble. That slight delay on the alert button is a bit unnerving, but it's common to all the...

All this technical analysis and wizardry is very interesting, but the only practical thing that matters is the experience of the player in the...

I think it was last on the Roadmap Fix List at the end of January this year and has not re-appeared, as far as I can tell. In fact SPG has no...

Would love to see NS in the game, long overdue, and the Harrisburg line would be as good as any. Northern Indiana would be even better. On a side...

I'm not usually in favor of resurrecting old threads, but this might be an exception. Sometimes you can't find a cab control or switch no matter...

Hundreds of thousands of lives were lost building railways all over the world. Unfortunately, the Settle- Carlisle is not the most egregious...

Yes, I broadly agree with these replies. No one would suggest that RD is perfect with TSW2 at this point. Some controls are "iffy" and one or two...

Guilty as charged! This was a thread about the Cathcart Circle route and some of us hijacked it to complain about the headlights on Clinchfield,...

Ooh, like many Americans, I'd jump at the chance to see how the British upper classes travel. Would we see the Royals and their train? The Eton...

This was mentioned on the latest stream. The Piccadilly Line is about 45 miles long and has more than 50 stations, virtually impossible for DTG to...

On a somewhat related subject, I'm planning on upgrading my monitor this summer. Since 4k displays are pretty inexpensive these days ( $350-400),...

There don't seem to be any jocks on the forum, so we nerds have to fight with each other. If it weren't for the Moderators, it might descend into...

So, there's a trade-off for the time being, until they solve the "headlight problem". So which would we rather have: headlights that illuminate a...

Well, MP said that headlights on American locos shouldn't be visible at all during the day. This is simply not the case. The ones I see passing...

Surely it's possible to dim the headlight during the day, if you want. Personally, I'd put up with bright headlights during the day. After all,...

Not to mention the Dash 8 40 CM, the Dash 8 41CW or the Dash 8.5 40CW etc.. There are almost endless order variations and rebuilds among American...

Yes, the F7, in particular, had a powerful, twin-beam headlight which should be illuminating the entire vista up ahead, including in tunnels....

That's actually still a very capable card. I'm still getting by on a 1070 and doing more than OK. I expect it will handle "Rush Hour" just fine. I...

Should be showing same speed as the HUD. Go to " controls", " advanced controls" and "calibrate".

So much development time has been spent on this route, any major problems with the route environment and/or the locos and rolling stock would be...

I know you mean well, but you shouldn't presume fo speak for anyone but yourself. Have a better weekend.:)

Yes, and compare that with the SPG locos, in a similar landscape, which seem to illuminate the track ahead. Running up the Fremont branch, I could...

In principle I agree with you. I've said many times on the forums that, since the vast majority of console players have older hardware, they are...

Well, in all honesty, this route took a couple of steps backward for me in today's stream. I don't know if it was the gray skybox, the dull...

Yes, it's not well scripted. I reran the scenario (on PC) and tried driving at under 50 mph to see what would happen but, apart from that one red...

Interesting article. It would be nice to see those locos ( SD60M, SD70M and the Geeps) in the game eventually. However, Skyhook's scenery looks...

A photo of your red-rimmed eyes? :) Seriously, this will be very helpful, as I'm very much undecided, though I'm beginning to lean in favor.

Just got my copy, too. I guess it can be referred to as the "Potash Branch". I'm 2 issues behind in my reading, but I might leapfrog to this...

I ges you misd the poynt.:) :D Anyway, the whole point is that we welcome everyone on to the forums, whether or not English is his/her first...

Is this what you meant by familiarity with the English language?

They all have value. It depends on your interests, passenger or freight, commuter or long distance, country/region, era, traction etc. I assume...

If you're on PC, I think you can purchase the bundle and then delete any routes you don't immediately want. If you change your mind later, you can...

I think SPG is still the gold standard as far as scenery goes. And it's several years old, go figure. But like all of TSW, it's pretty sterile....

Well, if the next stream is more or less a shipping build, we will see if the sound and lighting are improved. I must admit this route is looking...

Or their own. The SD40 on their website could be easily modified. Adding the extra length and porches, UP trucks and livery and some cab...

The attraction of CRR was never the scenery for me. I have the TS version and I've traveled through rural Kentucky and Virginia, so I knew what to...

I've always found this to be a problem with many British routes, in TS and TSW(2). There simply isn't enough headlight or ambient light to find...

My goodness, that's very elaborate mapping and printing. You have more buttons than my Raildriver! Well done! Don't worry, most of us are...

No, clearly there should be period-appropriate stock. But the fact is empty rail yards and nicely modeled but lifeless, barren main line stations...

Fair enough, but it was thought significant enough to be specifically mentioned on the stream. Let's just say somebody got it right.

That is a very nice touch. Someone in the development team had imagination.

For American rail: 1970's and 1980's. For UK rail: pre- privatization. For German rail: pre- electrification.

The major problems on CRR, the SD40 horn, the poor headlights and the fact that banking com doesn't work are, I think, unlikely to get much...

I know I shouldn't say this, because I'm pretty sure it would be a duck out of water, but I like the BR 101 so much, it would have actually made...

Oh yes, you're right on the money (sorry). I've never thought that $30 was expensive for any route. And RH is certainly a kind of loss leader....

Well, as you know, that's not the only example in that route and others. Broken promises, the patronizing attitude I took from the last stream, as...

It does seem a bit incongruous, doesn't it? You have GCC , with about 20 miles, one train and seemingly limited scope for expansion, for $30. Then...

Can't say I've seen any noticeable change in performance recently. Every PC setup is different and infinitely changeable though, so I would...

I hope you meant a likeness of that dish. The real thing would cause all kinds of problems with lineside objects and wild animals en route.:D
