Four actually, I mentioned the HST twice, the consists might vary by one coach but fundamentally they would be the same. If they have decided on a...
I find it a little surprising that they cannot reveal or haven't decided what they are including with the route yet. Presumably they have settled...
The class 150 wasn't a Pacer, it had a mark 3 based body shell not a Leyland National bus body shell and ran on bogies. The Pacer was a Leyland...
Yes that is true, it did say expecting, however they must have seen the clamour of curiousness on these forums! I would have imagined they would...
Thanks, I knew I had seen it somewhere! I wonder if they have forgot to add it or the information isn't known yet.
I was certain I read somewhere that they would be revealed on this roadmap!
It would be nice to have some kind of station duties procedure. Of course CCTV is for more modern operations. There were procedures for station...
I do like the idea of arriving at an engine shed, maybe at the end of a GWR branch line, at 5am in the morning and being the shed firelighter. It...
The Chiltern route, or part of would be a suitable route for the class 68's.
Well, thank you for demonstrating my point so succinctly!
I am sorry if you feel that way but you do come across as very patronising when people disagree with you. It seems to be you who won't accept the...
I think a crew change can take as little as around two or three minutes which would often be the station dwell time at somewhere like Exeter or...
You are wasting your virtual breath.
Yes that what he said, the train light was a bit dimmer than reality, but not by much. It was the lights on the station he thought were too dim.
Would you think Plymouth or maybe Exeter would be points where there was a change of crew? I notice in BR freight working timetables that there...
It does make you wonder if they drove it with a night setting. I would assume they would but I can't see how something like the dim stations and...
Nice suggestion. I have the TS1 route and very nice it is too, I just wish they had finished the Newquay branch. If they included Newquay in any...
I don't think the class 385's did when the 314's did. A class 380 would be a better choice. I would be surprised if one doesn't come as DLC at...
Reading these reviews I might get it sooner than I thought I would!
I think just having people, even static people in the world outside the railway would help. More variety of cars moving about. The West Somerset...
It seems with TSW that the railway part is usually nicely detailed but the world around is devoid of life and atmosphere. It lacks atmosphere...
Well he has said publicly that they are not bright enough so hopefully he will push for a fix, as an aside I never said they were bright enough, I...
He didn't but I wouldn't have expected him to commit to that live. I am sure if there is enough feedback about it they will look at it.
Matt has said on the stream that the station lighting is too dim and the light on the unit isn't quite bright enough.
Watching the stream, I really like the look of the unit, it looks very well modelled. It was suggested by someone that some of the services on...
Maybe if/when there is some DLC, a class 380 for example then they might add some extra AI services in and out of Glasgow. It looks like a nice...
I assume (I haven't got it yet) they have only modelled the services going over the actual route so 208 sounds about right from looking at the...
Indeed, I think all Southern stock only had illuminated route blinds until the head intensity headlights started to be fitted in the 1980's.
Preston was one such place on the WCML in BR days, I don't know of any others, although I have a feeling York was too on the ECML.
Well then I suggest you look yourself. There are plenty of comments from drivers on various forums. If you look a photos of BR diesels at night...
Older British trains did not have headlights which lit the track up, it is a fact. They only really started to in the 80's and even then high...
No, that was just one example!
Yes I agree night time lighting is a problem, it isn't great on TS1 either, recently driving on the Weardale network in the dark, I couldn't even...
I would agree the station lights do look a bit too dim, although it is not really a fair comparison with the station in the photo. The lights on...
I guess those drivers whose have recounted their actual experiences were lying then!
No recently being the early 1990's. They didn't start fitting high intensity headlights regularly till the mid 80's often as loco's and units were...
Train headlights in the UK, up until recently were there so the train would be seen by track workers and members of the public. They were not...
Would they have even bothered running on electric power between Paddington and Hayes anyway? I wouldn't have thought so.
The class 73 does not need to be coupled to another loco or unit to run on it's own or hauling stock.
ahem!
Yo! Can you show us your copy of the class 800 for TSW.....bro!
Well we all want different things, I am a bit of a stick in the mud purist as I like to recreate realistic operations, but that is just me, I...
I like making timetabled scenarios to actual working timetables, it is interesting to see how the timings differ in the sim, often they are quite...
A class 101 would never have been seen at Charing Cross! If you are going to go to the trouble of creating the correct stock for a route, why...
Of course that is the only explanation!! They have stated why, there is not a need to guess!
It would be good to see this, I love the old slam door EMU's. However I think it will be a long time till we get a route this long in TSW, if...
I don't know for certain as not so knowledgeable about that era, but I don't think many worked to that side of Scotland at the time. Some of the...
BVE also had bounce and very realistic physics and track joint sounds around 20 years ago. It is something which could do with improvement in TSW....
I would be interested to see their list of principles?
If they went to the trouble to make all those units and loco's then they might as well make a period route to suit or a proper backdated Brighton...
