Cathcart. Hamburg-Lübeck is dull.
You have to give Nat credit for poking some sore spots on streams. Just not as pointedly as Sam does.
Four waypoints I think DTG need to place on their map, if they are not going to find themselves dealing with declining interest: 1) Increase,...
Not quite sure what the difficulty with painting the rear would be. Although I think I would have painted it from the side and projected it...
The RW photo is taken from at least 100 yards farther away, and the beginning of the curve-out is effectively out of frame __________________...
The two shots aren't taken from the same spot. In the RW photo, the part shown in the TSW screenshot is barely visible.
I have no problem with a short route if it's well done. I like HRR. And even a short route with only one train, if it's really well done. Cathcart...
Judging by the second video attached to the article, its launch is quite realistic (and smooth, with no Ge 4/4 lurch)
Since at start your locos aren't connected to the cars, applying train brake doesn't accomplish anything. Loco brake is enough. The key thing is...
Say what you want about Rivet, their rolling stock 3D visual modeling is always top-flight.
Comes and goes in waves. I scooped up several at the New Years' sale because of the bargain-basement prices that really hadn't and didn't...
Yup. Notice though the corollary to Diagram 4: the air that was in the brake cylinder was vented off to the atmosphere and is lost. It has to be...
--HUMOR SENSOR MALFUNCTION--RECOMMENDED ACTION: WATCH OLD GEORGE CARLIN VIDEO --
That effort would in the first instance be easiest with a German route, because of the availability of existing trains without needing repaints....
Set in 2020. COVID lockdown.
I started with TSW2020 on XBox via Game Pass, which included GWE, NTP, LIRR and MSB (CSX/HH was part of the PC base game, but not for console)....
The recent expansion pack had little or nothing to do with bringing the core routes (which are not the oldest) "up to date." The most that could...
Just wondering if you've done any work on a "halfway" version. The stock DTG flares look awful, but with your mod I often can't see lights at all...
DTG routes and locos used to come with manuals. They have stopped producing them (grrrr), but for the trains in the base game, and many others,...
That isn't really so. The Preserved Team exists as a function of the fact that technology marches on and that DTG expects that over time its...
I don't make use of launch discounts, simply because I never, ever buy a DLC pre-release. I wait to find out what other users have to say about it...
I would say it's rather more like TVM.
CCS?
Preserved CRR No. 807 waits for a coal train to pass on CSX's Kingsport Subdivision, formerly the Clinchfield Railroad AC4400CW, F7 [IMG]
Clinchfield is set before there were EOTDs. The only way to find out the rear BP pressure is to use a flying camera to read the brakeman’s...
The 465 does also. Perhaps to excess.
Holding a stopped train in place doesn’t require nearly as much force as stopping a moving one
That is a commonly-believed myth, one which Amtrak itself assiduously spreads as an excuse for its miserable on-time performance. In fact, by law,...
Wow, that's changed since I was a boy! 50 years ago you could set your watch by the Bundesbahn.
Exactly. On Level 2, you get upgraded to an M3B and M7B, but the enemies are tougher and the end-level boss is a real mother.
Sounds don't belong to the route, but to the train. Compare, say, the 375 and the 465 on SEHS.
I know. :(
Also- very important: start with minimum reduction and then add brake pressure gradually as needed, because you don't want to reduce or release...
I am inclined to say, rather, because the DLC releases for the coming fiscal year have not been firmed up, or were only just recently. DTG can...
I must admit, I'm a sucker for scenery porn, which is why I honestly prefer chugging along on Sand Patch or Clinchfield or WSR or Cane Creek,...
The Harlem shares trackage with the Hudson and New Haven, which do carry freight
Extra 3016 South- in Journey mode- represents carelessness on DTG's part, because somebody decided to set it in winter in the snow without testing...
For immersion's sake. In-game that switch actually does nothing, since Simugraph doesn't model voltage drop in the MU control signal.
In my experience, ATC/ACSES on Boston is FUBAR on every service.
SYSTEMS CHECK ALERT -- HUMOR SENSOR MALFUNCTION DETECTED -- SUBMIT REPAIR TICKET
Well, you have to admit the competition isn't too fierce. The only one so far which isn't a complete goat-rope is the underwhelming Peninsula...
If GCT wasn't dark, there wouldn't be anywhere for the muggers to lurk.
But I thought Neuschörnewitz was a an entertainment and nightlife mecca?
But for the southern half of the Harlem route it runs in tandem with the Hudson, which does carry freight. And the little sidings alongside have...
In real life, the Paris-Marseilles run is the only TGV service that sells enough fares to pay for itself.
There at least I can't agree. It was never realistic to expect DTG to include an all-new train, especially one which is only there for AI traffic
I had hoped that this would be a "little urban gem" route like Cathcart: not much of it but what there is of it polished till it shines. But this...
Based on the earlier screenshots, flatcars.
Next kid who asks "Are we there yet?" can get out and walk.
