It is wheelslip. But it is a very basic form where you are just overloading the traction motors particularly when you’re setting off from...
There’s quite a few- generally all the Oxfords/Cotsworld trains stop at Slough so there is a quite a few on TSW. Headcodes Westbound: 1Dxx if...
It’s complicated. In some ways, it is better to just fail to call completely than overrun because at least there will be minimum disruption. The...
Sorry but it’s untrue. SPADs and station overruns happen occasionally but surprisingly, station overrun and SPAD together are extremely uncommon...
I understand you completely. I see what you’re saying but that has nothing to do with the game/simulation. The game has modelled it correctly. You...
Hello welcome to the forum. Yes, it is meant to be that way. You can only do the new speed when the entire train has passed the speed board....
I noticed this yesterday on the loading screen. I’ve not seen it before so guessing it’s new but have only seen it for GWE. I like the trump card...
That’s a gross exaggeration. Across the country, station overrun or fail to call happens dozens of time a year. Normally usually down to...
One thing I would say is that whilst I understand that that they won’t make a long route in one DLC, there should be a strategy as to expanding...
If you want to be pedantic, on (some) modern trains, there is information about estimated passenger numbers/loading in each coach via the TMS....
Thanks for the follow, I’ve followed back :)
A quick internet search shows maximum speed is 75mph/120kph which is what I was expecting. So you’re at about double the maximum operating speed :D
Reading to Oxford is only about another 25miles. They could add in the Class 220/221 or even the Class 180 Adelante. And they could add in some...
Are you able to take a video or screen capture? I’ve just tried right now and found absolutely nothing, not even the slightest bit of wheel...
No you’re getting confused. I assume you don’t live on the line. Class 220/221 are operated by CrossCountry. They operate from Reading going West...
As a simulator, I think it’s fantastic. The traction, the route, the detail, the physics, the sounds are amazing and give a very realistic...
It worked, thank you very much. I’ll try playing the new traction tomorrow hopefully. I might make a new thread in the general section of this...
Wheelslip? I’ve not seen any of it whatsoever on any of the routes I play on. Are you able to take a video/screen capture of it?
Hi, I’ve just bought the MP36. It’s been downloaded successfully but is not showing on TSW. When I go back to the Xbox page, it’s showing it’s...
Maybe I’m in the minority but generally speaking, I’m impressed by the sounds. There might be issues with certain traction but other than that,...
Train driving in real life is mundane particularly of modern units such as the a Class 377 which are very easy to operate. The hard part of the...
Unfortunately, in the good old days, the requirements for lights were a lot less as you can tell by all the traction in the Northern Transpennine...
I would buy this in a heartbeat and at full price. But unfortunately, if the route is only going to be 50ish miles, it won’t be enough to enjoy...
Air brake Air brake charges brake pipe with compressed air usually 5 bar in the UK. There is an auxiliary reservoir which supplies the brake...
I did say they are interchangeable but regardless, I stick by what I’ve said. Throttle is not generally used in the UK certainly not in modern...
Pretty much 400 miles exactly via the quick way. A bit optimistic considering most of their routes are only 40-50 miles long. Only Class 390s go...
Left is the US term and Right is the UK equivalent. Please note that I am generalising so I know some of the terms below are interchangeable...
I think you’ve misunderstood. This thread is 6 months old. The post you replied to... ... was made 6 months ago before the Class 377 came out....
100% in agreement. The way some people are posting here sounds like they want the HST and turbo gone and to be replaced by the 800/387. I’d be...
As you’ve noticed, most routes are quite short (40-50 miles). If you want a high speed line using TGV, for example, you need at least a hundred or...
What about the HST broken physics and turbo sound in cab?
Top picture shows MU valve circled in red Bottom picture shows Headlight control switch circled in green [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Appreciate it, nice to know it helps. Headlight control- you’re able to control the rear headlight so that the headlight will active light from...
It should be placed in the full service (step 3) position when demobilising the cab NOT in OFF. You will still get brake release from the other...
Yes it does; as I said before, you’re able to remotely control the independent brake in the trail locomotives. You’re not really going to notice...
Hello, do the following: In the trail locomotives: Independent brake to Release, Automatic brake to Handle Off and Brake cut-out switch to...
Are they really- I’ve not noticed any difference to be honest. Tonto62 is spot on. Regardless of what you think of him, have some compassion; for...
I’m starting to get worried as it’s been almost another week with no sign of him. Surely if he was banned it would say ‘Banned’ or something...
I made this post a couple of months ago in response to this question. Some people found it helpful so I’ll leave it here again. To add a bit...
I think what he’s saying is that you need to put some effort into your original post. Include some details about what is special about the route-...
Hello, welcome to the forum. Best example I can think of is Hempstead to the junction just before Garden City on the LIRR which is single line. If...
Of course. How silly of me. We could have the HST physics fixed. We could have the signalling issues resolved. We could have more scenarios to...
They just don’t run. It’s up to you proof they do run, how on earth do we proof they don’t run? Turbos (Class 165/166s), Class 80xs, Class 332s,...
I mentioned GWR on there which run on the SWR network. There’s no point having so many threads about one traction.
I made a thread about the Class 158/159 sprinter a few days ago...
It doesn’t matter, just as long as you’ve remembered to isolate all 3 switches (AWS/TPWS, DSD and DRA) on the side wall. Also, remember to put the...
This is the right forum. Welcome to the forum. Although, I don’t understand the title- I guess Buh should have read Bug but what about Pc?
I have to agree. We’ve had this discussion before and I did recommend in that thread to play around with the turbo (Class 166) for a while as it...
When I was referring to the air brake, I actually should have said the brake pipe because air is still required regardless for the brake...
