That first one really looks like an in-game screenshot too, nice!
No, I seriously couldn't figure out what it was. I just thought it was some kind of random symbol! Clearly I'm just too smart for this
I find it interesting that GWE is still thrown in there. That means the base game comes with 4 routes instead if just 3 (for console users, of...
Lol, why would he tell you that?
IDK, lately DLC have been announced about 2 weeks before release, and this time we know the release date- August 14th. So I think it would be...
Actually... I wonder if journey mode is something like quick drive?
Actually I think it's Caltrain, sorry... the yellow stripe on the Surfliner seems too wide.
Ah. I see. Never quite understood all that to be honest.
Could be for something else one day, but yeah, wouldn't be for this (again assuming that we have the route right, remember thread title). Again,...
Woah, ok. I certainly have plenty of time to figure out that I'm bad at modeling assets and don't always have enough free time to have that...
Or we'll get an MP36 instead...
Plus small chance of that reskinned loco being a new GP60
Oh, electrification is well underway. There are centenary poles over much of the route, last I checked, no wires yet, but that could have changed...
Agreed! There's no obligation to update the time period of the route to keep it modern. Sorry guys. I think that just means it's simpler, sorry.
... I just realized... if the Peninsula Corridor *is* the next route... ..then just like GWE, we'll get another route with electrification under...
Oh, missed the discussion about Sounder. I don't find that likely... Sounder operates on BNSF tracks... And actually, so does Pacific Surfliner,...
Let's look at some platforms, shall we? Teaser: [IMG] Caltrain: [IMG] (From QNS Chris ) Surfliner: [IMG] (From Wikimedia Commons, Visitor7...
Yup, they are. Which is why I promise I'll be more careful with my guesses this time and put them in spoilers. There is technically one teaser...
If it is the Peninsula corridor, unfortunately just geeps run down there I think. Probably a GP38, GP40, or maybe GP60... some people thought that...
Looked like it, especially on that LIRR shot. I hope they fix the anti-aliasing more though
San Fran to San Jose is just about the perfect length for TSW, that'd be what I would expect. Kind of an odd choice if true because we've had...
But you already can?
Maybe journey mode is like a series of scenarios and / or services that you have to complete in order, maybe they flow into one another or...
No, they all came with routes that were release usually the previous year as DLC. Only sometimes do certain editions get a completely new route,...
They've done this exact same thing for many, many years with TS14/15/16/17/18/19
Just go to the TSW website and click "TSW 2020." It should be in there, it doesn't redirect to the article, it's a separate page.
So, great news indeed! We ARE getting a new US route! But since we don't know what it is yet, it seems ripe for speculation to me. This is the...
Ooh, brand new WEST COAST USA ROUTE! WOOO! Also very curious about the differences between "Journey" mode and service mode!
No, of course there will be more US content. Of course there will be another US route eventually. Might take some patience, but why would they...
Sure... but the GP40-2 in the current "deluxe" edition doesn't really add anything either. And while an M3 or DE/M30AC wouldn't add much by...
I'm sure there's more, just not as part of the package. But yeah, looks like the next DLC isn't a US route after all, but an American or German...
If we're going to see anything at all, this sounds like around the time we'd see it. I agree. I'll also add that we should get hints as soon as...
Worth mentioning: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/poll-the-15-routes-of-the-november-survey-discussion-i-guess.15376/ It's on this list,...
I, uh, think the entire thing is just a bit of a stretch... but I'm sure one line could work, and that would be great!
Well, if we're assuming the AC4400CW would be reused (its physics are pretty different from the other two CSX:HH engines since it's AC traction),...
Possible. In that case I'd guess the other engine would be a class 151. I think the OP even suggested something like this in another thread.
About the update? Check the PC updates thread. About the cabcar service I would like to know that too.
They don't usually do those on weekends. Could be one Monday, but I wouldn't be too surprised if we still had to wait a week or two.
Whether or not they're total LOVE or not (not in UK, but it sounds like they are), but they're still unique and ultimately historic trains so...
I can't help but notice that sometimes screenshot competitions are themed after upcoming DLC. For example, the theme of "yards" was put out tight...
Dang. I tried to do this earlier, but I gave up after... uh... [SPOILER] Also worth mentioning that, for those who may think that is...
Ah, I see now.
We've been over this already:
Except they don't have a Metra license. They made one unbranded route in TS, but in TSW they don't want to do any unbranded routes.
No, not at all really. I mean I guess they are kind of the same shape but they're pretty different since they're made by different manufacturers. Why?
Signaling... hmm.. ...wait a minute, have we even seen PTC (the Wabtec system, not counting ACSES here) in ANY train sim yet? Those systems...
You can indeed make a hundred car train in CSX:HH- there's even an achievement for it! You kind of have to mess with service mode and then kinda...
Makes a lot of sense, actually, it's the right length, has commuter operations which DTG seems to like for North American routes, and can be...
If you're talking about my spreadsheet from earlier, don't pay all that much attention to it, it was assuming stuff would be released every two...
With Cajon Pass and Moffat Tunnel, it still seems possible. It would not be unlike DTG to just completely cut out BNSF like that- operations on...
Separate names with a comma.
