As Dave has said, don't let this put you off. Create the Formations anyway as (a) You can use them in scenarios so you can see them run in-game...
Betty at Cromford High Peak Junction preparing to take a short train of empties up the branch line. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
An AI express service, rolling down the hill powered by gravity alone, with all the passenger doors open? :| The route is Peak Forest and the...
There are quite a few diesel scenarios on the Hub already. PinzaDave did a nice series of scenarios for his green diesels (I have put a link to...
Like this? :) [ATTACH]
No I can't......and I don't want to imagine where those 20 years have gone either :o Didn't know anything about NI railways before I started...
Betty is coming along nicely. I now just have to see what, if anything, she will be able to pull. :| [ATTACH]
I still don't like the lighting in PFR. It often makes screenshots look a bit bleached out. Anyway here are the same two shunters on TVL. Hope the...
Whilst messing around in Peak Forest I thought I would have a bash at making a 'fake' Dovedale shunter based on this photo (but without the modern...
Want more power to haul that 1 incredibly heavy brake van? NOT my favourite 40 shot. 30/7/84 (or 5 Class 40s head off to the graveyard). [ATTACH]
The development team would know on Day 1 whether they planned to have the CL104 and the CL101 couple together or not. TBH, and I know that I am...
Looks like you picked the wrong coaches Moritz ;) Western Viceroy on the PRC Western Sunset If I had been a bit more thorough, first time around,...
If PFR had stayed open a bit longer then might this excursion have continued from Derby to Buxton? D1052 "Western Viceroy" running round
Well I won't bother making this one in Formation Designer........but it is unusual (certainly out and about on a main line). Class 101 DMU @ Low...
IMHO Buffet / Griddle car gold would be achieved by having a CL309 for the Southerners, a CL124 Trans-Pennine (6 car) unit for the Northerners...
Here's another reference photo that shows this combo was fairly common. In this case it could even be argued that this service could have been...
Vern I hope you're not just voting for a Cl309 to get a griddle car? ;)
I hope that DTG give us a brand-new "Kick-Ass" profanity filter......................................Oh !!! ;)
I'm just hoping that we get some extra emojis / smilies for these forums. Anything extra will be a bonus :|:love::):o;):(:mad::cool::D
Great work and well done for coming up with something a bit different. :) Reminds me of the days, a very long time ago, when I created all the...
In theory it should do but I thought I'd just double check (with future scenarios and timetables in mind). Also will it come as a 3-car? (Then I...
This is excellent work. Well done. :) Very much looking forward to seeing how your projects progress.
That's starting to look really good.:) Re the MK1 TSO I could try transferring a livery from the NTP coach to the WSR version, through editing,...
"LMC" = Leeds to Manchester (I guess) = NTP. "LPC" = Liverpool to Crewe = SOS. "PNZ" = Penzance = (ECL). And so on :) (Not sure why they have...

What do you think of this Dave? Hopefully your hours of work haven't been wasted. This formation works in TSW4. We just need to get the liveries...
Here is my Formation Designer screen once I type "TEA" into the search facility. All of my liveries are on the NTP (LMC) model which, for me, came...
Yes these pictures are great. Very interesting to see this documented and, certainly the formation of the shunter and CL91 loco will, hopefully,...
Hi Dave, It is planned for there to be a loaded/empty toggle in a later release. Also it is a known 'bug' that the move button doesn't work at...
The TEA does appear in Formation Designer (away from TSW4 at the moment but I think FD gives me 3 choices of TEA and it is the 3rd one that works...
I'm worried about you James so I will be reporting you for that post. Trust me, it's for your own good :D :D :D
Oh yes there are plenty of examples of a CL31, some Mk1s and a BG working in-game but, I think, all of these have come from DTG. (Diesel Legends...
I think what's good about these formations so far is that they are all really short. In most cases I think Formation Designer will encourage us to...
I struggled when I put an Mk1 BG on the back of the rake. Everything was OK up to that point but the BG killed it. Try the CL31 with 3xTSOs (or an...
A bit like this? :) (I'm still trying to get the hang of livery editor......can't seem to work out painting the door handles on the Mk1s at the...
Here's another one. Probably more a Livery Manager example at the moment but, when the 1938 stock is available, Formation Manager will give me...
Definitely "close enough" :) These examples might also give us an excuse, later on, to recreate the same image but with a community livery or,...
Curious to see what unusual formations there are / were out in the real world that we can now recreate. I start the thread with this CL31 / CL08...
Yes there are 'issues' with a few multiple units. DTG are aware. I'm sure that there will be an update along shortly.
This was a fairly common sight too in the UK................usually early in the mornings delivering the tabloids and broadsheets. (All we need to...
Just did some tests with a CL66 and a rake of 18 Seacows, and then a rake of 18 Turbots, applying the brakes at 30mph. The Seacow rake more or...
I don't see why you couldn't have a triple headed formation trundling around Tees Valley? It would look quite good running through the industrial...
Ahh that gives me something new to have a play with. I'll let you know how I get on. :) Now that sounds like a good idea. Is that reasonably...
I assumed it was that so stayed well clear. TBH it's not too bad making a UK consist 1 vehicle at a time......not so sure about US though :o Oh...
[ATTACH] Locos: CL483 EMUs Route: IOW - St Johns Depot
Was this you adding a full formation (including a loco) to itself or was it just a run of wagons of coaches which you were using as a 'base' to...
Matt. I guess that are going to be many instances like this. Where locos and wagons don't work together in real-life but where, from a game-play...
Hi Matt (as this is probably one for you :)), Now that we have Formation Designer the temptation is to make really long trains. (ie 20xTEAs or...
How about Ipswich to Felixstowe as the route with working container cranes and a fully working traverser at the end? Now that would certainly give...
Just a few screenshots from 'playing' :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
