The bit in the video is the JR-Central end of the Chuo line at Nagoya - this thread is the commuter services at the JR-East end (Tokyo). The mid...
I think they mean one of the passing trains using Limited Express units, specifically the one at Kanayama (27 mins in) - there was another one...
Probably Shinano (Nagoya - Nagano)
Yeah, and you can't enter the Eurostar platforms without passing security and French passport control. One reason the international part of...
Dollands Moor (West of Folkestone) is the end, HS1 joins the freight lines into the Tunnel - that said Domestic services leave at Ashford and use...
HS1 though Kent isn't that bad, though it's mostly Noise Walls and Tunnels. Northern France meanwhile is flat and featureless - and a Paris...
Didn't get these down here until the late 2000s - Sprinters didn't appear until 1992-1995ish on the Cornish Branches, then it was a mix of 150/2s...
At a guess based on road distance - around 55km for mainline and branch - so rather short. 6 Stops on the mainline, 4 or 5 on the Branch...
A lot of the German states are now specifying a livery for their tendered routes - closest UK equivalent would be Scotrail where the branding is...
There is also the Smartron which is common in Eastern Europe - that's a off the shelf 'Vectron' with minimal customisation for those wanting a low...
Were the trains more frequent back then then they are now - I seem to recall it only gets 4 or 5 trains per day.
Do the crews do any driving on these? I thought Washington Metro was automated?
They don't join the classic lines at Lille - there is a 200km/h speed limit, but they stay on LGV all the way though Lille
They are not - but the pan needs to be lowered for the height lock to change between standard and Eurotunnel heights, same with leaving the LGV at...
I thought it was a third party - or am I thinking of a different route? Ok ignore me - I was thinking of Cane Creek, which is Skyhook.
Ignore me - I was thinking of Cane Creek which is Third Party, not Clinchfield with is DTG. Please Continue
It's pretty standard in gaming though - quite a few games have unskippable Publisher -> Developer -> Overlong and often out of place GPU sponsor...
Over 160km/h in Germany requires LZB - so if the route isn't fitted then that'll be the maximum.
Southern, Thameslink and Great Northern are all sub brands of Govia Thameslink Rail and are run as a single franchise. Where the problem may rise...
Interlaken West had one of those up till the late 1990s (Pre station rebuild) - it looked odd seeing the guy slotting in a strip for "Inter City...
Luxury cruise train that runs from North to South Coast in Australia - 1 train per week IIRC - takes about 3 days end to end, with some very long...
It isn't legal to give it away for free - while it's probably more tolerated/overlooked for small operations, a company the size of DTG doing it...
Apparently major issues with the retractioned sets has caused SWR to reject them - I believe legal action may be occurring so more details are not...
Also something to remember is that the branch is privately owned by the airport who may not be willing to give access to their stations. Taking...
Testing with Google Translate and drawing the characters - they are Chinese rather then Japanese. Edit: I think it's related to something else...
JR's ownership is complicated - It's 9 separate companies flying in close formation. 4 regions are Private and the remainder is state owned. The...
Not sure - the Kanji Don't match anything on the line - but there is also the strong possibility of riddle or pun - Japan LOVEs puns
And there is the possibility that DTG decide to look into a route but the operator/rights holders are not co-operative. If they say no then the...
It's only 140-160km/h through the tunnel - while it's built for 250km/h - there are concerns about a fast Shinkansen blowing over a narrow gauge...
Forgive me if I'm wrong as things may have changed recently - but if I remember correctly Saudi is very strict on admission criteria, for example...
Ah I see where I'm confused - I'm thinking of the Shonan-Shinjuku-Line regionals*, I see they've upgraded the Shonan Limited Express from a Home...
As amazing as the trains are - I think a Rural or Smaller commuter route would probably be better than the high speed shinkansen, though I do feel...
The Ge 4/4 II's were not retired in 2010 - Here's one on Arosa in 2019...
The 257s are only on selected peak services - most are 15 car E231/233's with double deck Green cars. [IMG]
Yamanote certainly would push hardware if fully implemented - 11 car trains up to every 2 mins! - and that's before you add in the parallel...
Hopefully when the borders open up they can get out there and do some research. Union Workshop have previously posted experiments with Unreal...
IIRC the Capricorns are for Surselva and locals around Chur/Landquart - They can't haul wagons or additional coaches like the Locos or Allegras.
The TS classic routes already do this - a scenario marker on approach to a station will either trigger the request signal or sound the bong bong...
They ran in up to 12 cars combinations. Depending on the service there may also have been a 4 BEP in the formation (a CEP with Buffet car)
Groups - much like Roller Coaster Tycoon/Planet Coaster where you have a mix of friend groups and families. Different clothing depending on...
As I understand it Tokaido is staying at 280km/h for a while at least - the current timetable needs everything to have similar performance. The S...
They do have merch, but it's mostly limited run for promotional freebies rather then as a proper merch store.
Twitch seemed under load as well last night - got chucked out of a few streams (including DTG) with various error messages so gave up and watched...
I'd certainly prefer 90 mins of this [ATTACH] To 20 mins of this [ATTACH]
The base tunnel wouldn't be interesting - 20-30 mins end to end all in a level single track tunnel? The scenery and challenge of the gradients are...
The branding for Scotrail is owned by the Scottish Government - so they can leave off the "Operated by Abellio" from the doors so they don't need...
TBF - TS doesn't really do GTO sounds well.
I did think the GTO start up was a bit off - but IME the TS engine doesn't really do GTO that well. (TSW does seem a bit better there)
Cross City is confirmed for TS Classic....
They did post a few months back that they were learning to model in Unreal Engine - so I think they will jump at some point. Given the current...
Separate names with a comma.
