[IMG] On a clear summer morning but chasing yellows due to a train in front of her an APT is obliged to trundle over Shap at a mere 80mph. (WCML...

It's nicely made, detailed and fairly fast if you're looking for that- it certainly has a lot going for it but I find it a bit dull compared WCML...

The Nullarbor Plain in Australia boasts the longest straight section of track in the world, 250 miles or more, which could have an hypnotic effect...

Far from convinced on this but Class 50?

If you're interested in a route but undecided have a look for it on YouTube- that should give you a good idea what to expect from it.

It doesn't look like much of an improvement on the first system you linked to me. Any system maker worth the name should be able to build to...

One caveat about WCML North- if you're obsessive about collecting points and achievements it will frustrate. TS has a scoring system for Career...

It's all at Locomotion (see left). Some of it looks a bit moth-eaten and one of the power cars has chipboard or something where the windscreen...

I'm not familiar with The Sims but I don't believe it relies heavily on lighting reactions and accurate head shots.

Yes the Southern made double deck EMUs which sort of worked- they were more split level really with upper and lower compartments staggered each...

Given the quality of most of the dialogue in Unstoppable I don't think he'd have minded.

[IMG] It gets easier from here. A trio of Union Pacific GE ES44ACs crests the summit at Sherman. Sherman Hill.

Regarding dependencies for third party routes, scenarios and WHY one that you will see time and time again because it was an integral part of some...

Don't skimp on the monitor- you won't regret getting a good screen and may be using it long after your new system is retired. If you want to play...

There's a stand alone version and a bundle for users who already have TS- make sure you get the right one.

You can get older editions of TS, sold as Steam keys and usually for significantly less than the current edition, from sites other than Steam....

Hmm. Well it comes with a headset and monitor (which I notice they're not very forthcoming about) but I think you're still looking at £1,000 or...

It was built in the '50s. Edit: Just checked that- it was commissioned by the LMS but did enter service in the '50s after Nationalization.

And the Fell Diesel.

I predict that someone is going to dump on the graphics card and you don't mention how fast the RAM is (Ryzen CPUs in particular benefit from fast...

Yeah- when's the funeral?

The Lancaster, Morcambe and Heysham line was electrified by the Midland Railway to 6.6kv AC in 1908 but, as far as I can find out, the electric...

Getting on for two years. Bet you're really careful with back-ups.

On the plus side if you're driving it you wouldn't have to look at it. I don't have TSW2 so I'm not going to vote but I do think this would make...

If you're not already aware of it the Great British Railway Journeys bundle should enter your considerations:...

I thought the BART trains were automated but admit I don't know much about the system except that it's 5'6" gauge for some reason.

I did conflate the two to be fair though both work by driving the traction motors. Regenerative braking was used on the Woodhead line- an...

A dynamic block system is the ultimate in flexibility. Each train effectively defines its own block, or track section, by having its position and...

That was an upgraded Class 86 which in turn was developed from the best bits of Classes 81 to 85 which, I think, did boast tap changers- that's...

Class 80? (Ex GW gas turbine prototype rebuilt as a leccy for tests on the WCML.)

I remember travelling on these lines when visiting my grandfather. I think it was my first encounter with train doors that opened at the push of...

That's obviously not what I said. Or you could have just said, "Perhaps you misread the model of Ryzen (guess what) but you're wrong there- even...

The lower CPU clock speed might not be the best choice for TS but it's unlikely you'll have any cause to regret the choice and newer software will...

Are these laptops then? Edit: From the later posts no. You should surely be able to change a drive without violating the warranty- the actual...

Could be... [IMG] Wasn't there a one guess per member rule or is that Where am I? All yours anyway.

Nope.

Blimey I got a kettle. I think that either someone will get mine straight away or there'll be clues needed. For now though: [IMG]

Thompson B1?

One of a few shunter classes including the 09 and 11 (built for the LMS in the '40s) that started with shunters built by English Electric in the...

Makes perfect sense to me. Obviously the process of developing the routes and trains is quite different for each sim' but the research and some...

The prototype EM1 also spent some time in The Netherlands. She was built in the early '40s but the WW2 rather got in the way of the Woodhead...

[IMG] A4 Pacific Mallard leaving Darlington in The Weardale and Teesdale Network in the '60s.

1,267 hours but, with other log-ins for reasons, that'll be nearer 1,500.

Not natively but I'm sure there's at least one guide on YouTube to running it using Wine or Wine Bottle.

Elephant in the room question- did you buy the route or did you buy a scenario pack?

A couple of years ago or so in the Steam forums for Train Simulator there was a discussion about the user base and someone at Dovetail came up...

I had Evening Star on my Amstrad but not for long. A zero effort Spectrum port- it looked terrible even at the time.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. TS has to have the Steam app' running to start and the app' either connects to Steam when it opens or warns...
