Ooh- I have no idea what you're talking about (on the iPad ATM and can't look into this and, as I mentioned, not much of a clue about scenario...
I don't have or want a heart pacemaker but I wouldn't begrudge anyone else the use of one.
Is it just this route or TS as a whole?
"Grey towers of Durham Get around a bit don't you?" - Sir Walter Scott
In fairness that's probably quite prototypical.
Haven't looked it up it seems likely that ECML (North) was the first British route (real route anyway- Hedborough North was in the first Railworks...
Just bought Great Western Main Line and guess what I spotted... [ATTACH] To be fair they probably wanted to give Oxford a bit of class- I'm not...
My reading of the OP was that he's well aware of the difference and been using TSW for a while but just bought TS. Could've misread but I thought...
In The Weardale and Teesdale Network in the '60s you can legitimately drive almost everything except high speed main line traffic and even that...
Huh- looked at a house in Tow Law last time we moved.
Never seen the CG version but I recall the first showing of the first series (with Ringo narrating) and being immediately unimpressed. Within the...
Is there a football tournament being played somewhere? I've been watching the cricket. (Joking of course- apart from scant highlights you're...
Class 58 isn't it? I've only seen one in my life when I was changing trains at Peterborough- must be over 30 years ago now. As for me- Deltic...
Bah- I meant Shap there. Yes- my answer was generally useless. I look in on the forums when I can't get to sleep- clearly I shouldn't post then....
I don't know much about scenario creation but there is a template scenario for the APT in WCML (North) with C-APT points set up. I believe the...

I bought Great Western Main Line yesterday (with the Class 121) and it made a wet afternoon very enjoyable. Some of the scenarios are flawed but...
I thought about this question for far too long before I realized how obvious the answer is- North Road in Darlington a.k.a:...
Wow- Lime Street's looking pretty good these days. I have fond memories of it because arriving there meant we were visiting my grandfather who...
Is there nothing in the Workshop?
I may be misremembering this (if so no doubt someone will correct me) but IIRC I had a loco that wouldn't show up in Quick Drive* at first. I was...
Depends what you're looking for. Snazzy graphics? A program that makes good use of newer hardware? TSW is for you. Huge choice of trains and...
Seconded- my favourite route. Only seven scenarios as it comes but over 30* in the Workshop that don't require extra DLC some of which are...
If you're at all interested in British routes the Great British Railway Journeys collection is a pretty good buy at any time. I have three of the...
According to the Wiki page you linked to (thank you) snow build up was a problem that required attention.
Many an industrial complex had its own railway which would keep a loco' or two busy shifting goods and materials around. The systems might be...
I don't recall any problems with scenaria in this route but may well misremember and on the iPad ATM- I'll be able to check later. Do you get...
I agree with you there actually, this isn't something I'd turn to every day though I'd buy it, but there is a demand for such routes. I think the...
I'd be happy to see either. I imagine that if one were developed much of the work done could then be used to get a head start creating the other.
It's been mentioned in another thread but the Tyneside Metro would would make a good route. It's a self contained system compact enough to be...
Are you sure that wasn't Hosepipe Ban Simulator?
The frame rate does adjust but there's a lower limit. Get to a busy area and the frame rate will drop without affecting the passage of game time...
Forgive me for bringing up Train Simulator again in what is ostensibly a TSW thread but the implications of this have just occured to me-...
I figured- I just wanted to make a bum joke... I can sort of see the point if it's coupled, I guess the cushion works in lieu of buffers and the...
Is that the back of the train because it looks like it's sporting a giant haemorrhoid cushion.
When driving the APT speed limits are set by the C-APT, an in cab signalling system, and they can be up to 155mph (in Train Simulator at least and...
Indeed. That record was much easier to crack though- about four and a quarter hours with the Pendolino making it in around 3:55. Post three? :D...
Another couple of advantages for TS: It can be very cheap to get into because you can find Steam keys for older editions on other sites. Prices...
I'm going to e-mail Kit Spackman about this- I'm sure he'll have an interesting view. Kit developed the APT tilt system and I know him slightly...
Well according to Real Time Trains it left Euston at 10:35 and arrived in Glasgow at 14:29. I make that three hours 54 minutes. That 10:35...
When BR was privatised bits of BREL were bought by different firms and with mergers, company name changes and buy-outs since and technology being...
I wonder how many people would be surprised that the current record holder is the APT which set its time in spite of a five minute hold at...
IIRC Goulburn has a railway museum which might offer excuses to run some interesting rolling stock. I think it's also where the branch to the ACT...
Whether it's a Steam problem or a TS problem I don't know but Workshop items can have "phantom" dependencies- that is they get attached to the...
I happened by Locomotion in Shildon one weekend in 2015 and saw TS working with an Oculus headset (they were showing off the new Weardale and...
My only Train Simulator effort so far: [MEDIA]
No doubt many of these crossings are there to preserve rights of way and can't just be removed without being replaced with a bridge or underpass....
Sounds about right. If you'd posted here asking if it was worth getting TS I'd've said yes but gone on to mention exactly the sort of compromises...
PTGRail can come across as a bit pedantic but if you want an introduction to driving on a route or a particular topic you can do a lot worse.
I second that- in fact I think it should be the default. Even when you're not using the in-cab view you're still driving the train and those...
