With a GNER livery version you'd have an excuse for running this on the ECML.
These are interesting but a bit niche- not as niche as E1000 the original 25KV loco' though. She began life as a gas-turbine prototype ordered by...
With regard to Battle of Sherman Hill either the prices have changed, the discounts apply differently during sales or I just remembered wrongly...
Seconded. I live in the area and it has a simple beauty that the DLC captures very well. The first route I drove in TS and still my favourite....
...when folks will still be discussing HS2 and when will it be finished.
For anyone in Britain who wants to know more this was in Great Scenic Railway Journeys on Channel 5 the other day. It should still be online.
Be advised that this will be ineligible for the competition. Because of licensing issues BNSF stock and routes are unavailable outside the US and...
Well, after checking (you'd think I'd've done that first but no...), it turns out it's not in the tier one Humble Bundle anyway so I was talking...
For, no doubt, excellent reasons this was excised from my last comment when I added the edit about the Challenger. Rather than make things really...
It's basically an edition of TS with five British routes rather than the usual British, US and German troika. I implied this above but to be...
Second The Riviera in the '50s as a sound choice for British steam- several GWR kettles to drive from pannier tanks to King Class. Western Lines...
I was getting a bit confused here (it doesn't take much) because I had nominated the Q1 and Class 70 and mentioned the link between bullet trains...
I was thinking that- a strong contender for the Thomas Midgely Environmental award.
Each night Diesel had the same dream- taking over the Flying Scotsman, making up the lost time with a record performance, whistling at astonished...
There must be more than one 08 model then- I've got one over the ton on Sherman Hill.
Designed by Thomas Bouch surveyor and engineer for the Stockton and Darlington Railway, later vilified (not entirely unjustly) for the great...
[IMG] This lofty bridge crosses a useless river in a section Of a line built by an engineer much renowned in his time 'tho one whose reputation...
Gimme a chance.
That's what threw me at first but this isn't Dovetail's competition and there's no prize to fight over so I don't see why it can't be a bit more...
Looks like Hartlepool but which route would that be? Edit Oh- it's not on Steam but there's... (Googles...) North East England from DP Simulation.
Don't have the route so this is a guess but do you need to use Ctrl+Tab to pass a signal behind you? I find that TS's idea of which end is the...
I believe there's some interest in this idea.
That should set you up- not including a screen presumably. Laptops have the added drawback of being more expensive for what you get. The CPU and...
It's not that old then. Vega is AMD's integrated graphics which is not ideal- as you can see it uses system RAM reducing the still adequate...
I have Flying Scotsman and don't recall it including scenarios for any route. She'll still work in QuickDrive though and I believe there's one or...
Depending on what those other games are you may be well advised to buy a system with them in mind and leave TS to look after itself. It's based...
IIRC mine was about £35 including a chip and extra chips were a tenner or so around 1979/80.
DCC is like the Hornby Zero-1 but much cleverer and much more expensive.
That's a first I think. Previously Dovetail have been quite assertive about keeping its content available to 32 bit users. Of course this wasn't...
Thank you both.
Is there any video? I looked on YouTube but all I could find was someone reading the announcement while the same five stills looped. A map would...
That would be the newly released version with Arriva branding removed.
PTGRail in YouTube has a video driving the EM1. It is typically clear and detailed to the point of being pedantic. [MEDIA]
Not judging but your social life and your wallet may both benefit if you pace yourself. You don't have to buy everything and you certainly don't...
The only real distinction between different editions of TS is the bundle of routes it comes with- the core program is essentially free with any...
It's not gospel but this usually predicts the big Steam sales fairly accurately: https://www.whenisthenextsteamsale.com/ You can find Steam keys...
Starting north from Beechburn in The Weardale and Teesdale you hit I think 1:44 immediately. I find that if you're in a DMU and try to change up...
I remember getting an Amiga with (IIRC) a 170MB HD and thinking, "now we're motoring!" Yes that's not a typo'- megabytes.
Well if this doesn't light a fire under at least one Australian developer I don't know what will.
There's something to be said for speed in that it reduces tile stutter- that moment when you're driving and the frame rate tanks because the next...
For a tenner? If I didn't have three of the routes already I'd grab it. The three I do have (Settle-Carlisle, Portsmouth Direct and GEML) aren't...
Ooh- sale in Steam! If you're going to get something now's a good time. I thought I vaguely remembered one for the Jubilee and it would be odd...
I forgot that the S&C already includes a Stanier Jubilee (any scenarios for it? I don't recall) and Fowler(?) 4F like the one in the Academy....
Riviera in the '50s is a good recommendation (a good stretch of main line and some nice kettles which you can of course run on other routes). If...
It'd be good to see as part of another route, Worcester to Birmingham maybe, but the town line is just a long siding with a complete journey time...
It might drag out the initial startup a little when TS checks in with Steam but not initialising a scenario. I got started on an i3 based laptop...
There's a lot to be said for having a PC that you can put away when it's not in use but there are wireless peripherals, networking systems and...
Good advice for desktop or laptop. You can get away with integrated graphics (I got started in TS with an i3 laptop, and depending on the route,...
Absolutely. Desktop systems are usually (though not invariably) put together from standard components. There are probably fewer laptop...
Vega 8 is AMD's integrated graphics system. It's considerably better than Intel's but probably still no substitute for a GPU. That said there's...
Separate names with a comma.
