And sound looping. Don't forget the sound looping.
I don't think that's necessarily the case. What we aren't going to see is the sort of radical course change that never was going to happen - DTG...
I'm waiting for The Who's Old Engine Driver DLC (https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/who/aquickonewhilehesaway.html)
It’s implemented in TSW on the Class 66
On a loco like a Gronk - which isn't very big - much easier to mount the traction motors on one axle and link the other wheels with connecting...
They're right there, hard to miss (in fact, you can't help but read them on German routes, since at any distance they resemble speedboards).
There are trackside mileposts every 1/10th mile on US and UK routes, and every 200 m on European routes. Why add another gadget to the cab when...
Not necessarily. It's entirely likely that it's been in production for months, but the announcement has been held up for whatever reason - and...
Nota bene: NORAC (Northeast Operating Rules Advisory Committee) rules dominate in the US east of the Mississippi (i.e. CSX and NS), but the...
But will feature in the upcoming Horseshoe Curve, so they haven't walked away. Oakville?
The old Northeastern railroads pose a peculiar problem, because after the Pennsy and NY Central merged to form Penn Central, only to go bust six...
However, shutting down HEP ought to kill the lighting and A/C in the coaches, but apparently it doesn't.
It would only be possible with an AI fireman. No one person can run the engine and the boiler simultaneously, but there is no prospect of...
For that matter, the Clinchfield SD40 and the Boston FP40-3 may not be wholly new, but they do represent substantial reworkings of the earlier...
I get what you're saying, Sam- but surely just about every new player starts with the base game and the three bundled routes? Meanwhile, buyers...
I would be amazed if they don't. Same trains, same TOC.
Thomas of course is the E2. Gordon is the A3 (but GNR, not LNER)*. The Black 5 is Henry (after his rebuilding). Pip and Emma are the power cars...
The Boston section of the NEC is now owned directly by Amtrak, but it’s former Conrail line and I believe the Conrail sections of the CSX or...
Because DTG can't be seen to endorse monkeying around with the .ini file. Same reason they can't be seen to endorse mods or the unofficial editor.
Ego contraversia
Yes. The older MSB/RSN version isn't LD-compatible, and the HHL version strikes me as likely to become an orphan, since it's a reasonable...
ACS-64 50th Anniversary Clinchfield, Dresden and Brighton are the three best routes for TSW yet published; SEHS is apparently the most popular....
More specifically, NTP is to date the only loco-hauled passenger route (I'm counting WSR as a collection of railtours, not a genuine passenger...
It also seems they have AC traction motors, which would contribute to peppy acceleration.
I'm also disappointed in the magnificent Clinchfield not even making the Top 10 among lines released this year, trailing the dismal Arosa and...
Speaking as one who knows a little bit about trials, that is exactly wrong. It is precisely what 12 of I or you think of a situation which...
US in-cab signal systems are borked across TSW.
Those with more particular model knowledge can correct me, but given that the 465 tops out at 75 mph it may be geared for more aggressive...
After all, we'd all be happy to pay $200 for a route, right?
There's pretty much no passenger route in Britain any more that isn't run by EMUs. But they aren't all bloody Electrostars!
And in some cases less functionality than older ones: for example, all the way back in 2017 with CSX-HH we got functioning train length counters...
Yes, because without a ringing bell pedestrians would never notice an approaching quarter-million pounds of locomotive, diesels roaring, ground...
In the context of the conversation, where this was a segue from talking about the relatively late public announcement of another route, that other...
It's an antique safety regulation dating back over a century: whenever you sound the whistle, you must ring the bell too. By the 1960s locomotive...
Cane Creek's problem is that it was trumped by Sherman Hill, since for anyone who is into western US Union Pacific freight, the latter is clearly...
The layering system is (with certain exceptions) "chronologically one-way"- in other words, when a route is released it can include layers for...
Isn't it a bit late to be choosing a topic for last month?
WIP: Transwaggon Habbiins [ATTACH]
ROTFL! I'm lucky to get 35
Unfortunately, your graphics settings reduce older hardware to slideshow-level framerates. On my i5/3GHz + GTX 1060, they're completely unusable.
Flying games have been huge since the beginning of videogaming (going back to old titles like A-10 Attack! and F-16 Fighting Falcon), and on...
Thank you! That's very helpful. Now I understand it a bit better; the G comes on when you are close enough to an upcoming speed reduction that...
The technique is called blended braking: use the auto brake to set a "floor," on top of which you use the dynamics to control speed (and, yes, you...
The upgrade work on Peninsula Corridor has been completed but not yet released, presumably it will, as per usual, include Livery Designer...
Dallas.
Well, Clinchfield launched with the brake-valve bug.
How fast are you trying to go? Don't think you can take a downgrade at the posted speed limit and have a prayer of controlling a heavy train.
Oh, and when they replace the diorama, they really need to bring back the 3/4 view of the loco so you can actually see what you're getting, since...
Yes, should have mentioned that- on trains equipped with LZB but not AFB (of which the only one currently in the game is the 425), LZB serves as a...
Yes. There's a sign telling the driver where to stop. On UK passenger platforms they often take the form of a number which represents the length...
