I forgot all about that, I did purchase it but don't have it installed. It was a nice little route if I recall with opportunities for pottering...

I agree it is an awesome feature and I hope to see more. I would dearly love to purchase it as a fan of 1970's BR. However in my opinion they have...

Both Woodhead routes are great routes, both atmospheric, the original still looks good ten years on. Trying to get away from Wath with a heavy...

Can you use downloaded reskins in service mode? For example if you painted the TVL class 101 in livery editor into all over blue could you replace...

That looks very nice but I would argue it is more 1980's esque :) As I have said I often run older stock in TS1 on newer period routes and that...

I would be happy to be the one being laughed at if there was a nice surprise! I don't think that will happen though.

No not that one, although I will have to check that one out. It is "A Locomans Log 1937-85" by Bill Alcock, he starts off as a cleaner at...

I am reading a book about a Saltley driver in the 50's, it seemed very common, I did wonder if it was a bit of a urban myth but evidently not. I...

They certainly seem to have a more "aggressive" sound than many electric units.

I watched the stream earlier, sounded good to me so will definitely be getting it.

I think it would make a very interesting 80's route, especially with the freight potential. I know class 121 bubble cars were used on it then the...

I hope when we get steam we will be able to fry an egg and some bacon on the shovel like they used to do.

I don't know how it works to be honest, whether AP will have put copyright on the scripting or not? I am sure DTG will have the where with all...

AP would have made the class 313 for TS1 though.

Well they have that wrong as well as there were 74 class 52 diesels! For clarity btw, there were 21 class 166 units.

Do you mean the 52? There hasn't been a class 72 yet, although DTG might have found evidence of one at Reading depot!

These small details would create more immersion that is for sure. On the class 101 you have a nice handle to change the destination which is a...

As far as I know the class 165 and 166 are very similar, as far as I know visual differences were first class accommodation and some extra hopper...

Class 365

I wish DTG would make up it's mind about how realistic it wants operations to be. They have said they don't want to add unrealistic trains to...

Well to be honest I don't often watch the streams so I would have missed those comments and I am probably guilty of raising my own expectations. I...

Voyager?

I expected one new loco to be honest, I knew we wouldn't get a new DMU, I expected an all blue 101 but I expected a Warship or a Hymek to be most...

:o lol I loved the 45's I must admit although I rarely saw them in BR service. Very occasionally you would get one on the freightliner service to...

Damn 319 was my second choice!

Class 321?

Yes the NTP is a lovely route, it can be fun to drive with the gradients and in the class 101 trying to keep to time on the stopping services.

Yes I agree with that, I don't want to dissuade DTG from exploring this option in the future. The point for me is, they could have attracted the...

Yes I would have liked to see the HST in original form, they started their working life on Brunels billiard table so would be fitting and are...

Yes of course it is alright I have never said or intimated that someone needs to own everything, in fact I have made that exact argument many,...

Me neither so it seems

Just had a look at them, an interesting concept. I do like the look of the 68/88/93.

We don't see all that excitement where I live sadly, it is just class 66's! Although I could hear the sound of what I am sure was a class 37 the...

Yes you can't get away from them! That ying, ying, ying sound is so annoying!

Also, Weardale has large yards at Shildon and loads of yards, factories, wagon works around the Darlington area. Plus there is the goods station...

Traditionally in the UK, Thursday was the day weekly paid workers got paid, whether it is a legacy of that, I don't know? When I worked behind a...

You might have these but: If you don't mind an older period route the Weardale route has loads of collieries, quarries and yards and comes with a...

It can be done. I think mentioning class 117 DMU's too often could eventually lead to one, so I am probably halfway there! The only thing I ever...

Seems to be the case, not convinced a huge amount of research has gone into it. Seems to be a case of "we better do something for BR fans". The...

Unlikely I would think. If they reskinned the class 101 into a blue 3 car set I might just purchase it as they made the effort! I wonder what...

I would be happy to do DMU research for free.

Okay thanks for that, I missed that one.

Lol well maybe not for everything! I do have a passion for these DMU's so I have long researched them and have many books and videos and DVDs.

I didn't think you would be :) Anyway I will try and shut up about it now.

If they made a class 117 as separate DLC for it I would definately purchase it.

It is worded in a misleading way. In 1967 the three centre cars were allocated to Reading, no more sets were allocated to the Western Region until...

They ran there from around 1987 when Reading had an allocation of them so ten years after the last class 52 had been withdrawn. Before that the...

Well you need something to represent the local trains on a route like that, it would have been odd having just fast services along the fast lines....

I suppose looking back at the roadmaps the Clinchfield route and Hamburg route have been on the roadmap since their inception so yes you have a...

I think there are a load more routes to be put onto the roadmap. We had one yesterday which was surprise there must be more in planning maybe...
