Well, in a recent stream, Matt made a point of opening up an auto rack car and showing its many colored contents. Wonder why he didn't open up a...
Add- ons for NA routes have been a rare event. In the early days of TSW2, there were extra locos for SFJ, LIRR and SPG. Correct me if I'm wrong,...
It's virtually impossible to compare the Sherman Hill route in TSW2 with the TS Classic version. Firstly, the TS version has the complete 3rd...
In the scenario " Get Over It " , I hooked up to the " struggling train " and helped it over the grade. Then as I prepare to reattach my original...
It would perhaps be wishful thinking that these old subway structures would be modeled for the sake of realism, but, I suppose like in the Boston...
Exactly, I echoed this in the other thread. This is a commuter line so it needs traffic and something to populate GCT. Now we have Rush Hour, we...
In the same way that the Boston route featured AI trains from lines other than Providence around the South Station throat, AI trains from other...
There won't be any changes. The route will end at North White Plains. It can still be a very attractive route if the assets are well modeled in...
Ooh, doesn't look good at all. Haven't been there yet but that doesn't look like a quarry. A quarry is a large pit in the ground full of very...
You wouldn't see many if any bison/buffalo in the Laramie-Cheyenne area in reality, except on the bison ranch itself just south of Cheyenne. The...
Then kindly use the American spelling " sherbert ", which is actually a different concoction from the British " sherbet ", because it contains...
I agree that this obsession with route length is misplaced. Many TSW routes have shorter main lines than their TS counterparts for one reason or...
It does happen sometimes when traveling through a busy yard or mountainous terrain. The radio signal may be lost temporarily, but is usually...
Understandable. Very dispiriting. And you can't "unsee " the empty reefers, can you? What other " phantom " cargo is in those cars and hoppers? I...
There's no rhyme or reason for these disparities. It seems to be entirely serendipitous. I have I7-6700, GTX 1070 6GB, 64GB Ram and a pretty fast...
You would think that, with the route being particularly short, it would be balanced by an especially detailed and realistic urban landscape. I...
The Harlem Line is OK, I guess. I would have preferred something around Chicago, or another major American city. I hope this love affair with the...
Yes, the UP trains running through my neighborhood will have 2 or 3 MPU's on the head and a DPU a third or a quarter from the end car. Sometimes...
I agree. I'd love to see something like the Sacramento Northern or the South Shore Line ( Chicago to South Bend ), but a city light rail line...
I've always stuck to the original engine.ini file. I know the authors of the various mods are very smart and know much more than I do. But with...
I'd hardly call it a " basic " gaming machine, Sharon E. ;) Much more powerful than mine. I have the original engine.ini and get acceptable...
And a great Chinese restaurant downtown.
Ah!! Methinks you've fallen afoul of the dreaded homophone police. They roam the forums looking for innocent victims. :D
Agreed. There should not and never will be anything in the game that even remotely suggests accidents involving humans or their vehicles.
Cheers mate, as always. Well, Peninsula Corridor ( SFJ ), Oakville Sub. ( OSD ), and Sand Patch Grade ( SPG ) all feature a GP 38-2, though not...
Bring it on!! Revelstoke-Lake Louise might be even better.
I wonder if lowering the seating position will at least partially solve the wiper problem. Right now the wipers on the Ace do not clear the...
Horseshoe Curve, a route set in the Allegheny mountains of Pennsylvania. In TS Classic it was set in the 1950's and included a number of older...
In this age of modern routes with one, maybe two lookalike emus, NTP and TVL are the true gems of TSW. With loco hauled freight and passenger and...
Well, as you yourself have said on more than one occasion, the cost of a gaming PC is prohibitive currently. We have many people in the...
I recall that DTG's initial recommendation for TSW2 called for 16GB of system ram. I'm not sure when and why it was changed to only 8GB. I think...
It's not that routes are " broken " when released or that they become broken from an update. The problem is that it takes so darn long for...
Yes, a pretty elementary mistake with the counterweight. Also, something is still not right with the way the loco is coupled to the first car....
Why worry. Very few locos in TSW have worthwhile headlights. :)
Oh my goodness!! Late arriving updates, no more midnight releases. "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war." (Or maybe just get a life other...
Strictly speaking, Utah and Wyoming are Western states, rather than Southwestern, though you are correct in describing Sherman Hill being in open...
You know, RD has been in beta testing for nearly a year now. I'm starting to wonder when, if ever, we will be able to move on to a full...
Yes, Metra has a program to honor it's heritage railroads. I believe there's a Milwaukee Road loco and a Rock Island, too.
As has been said by many of us, it's all a matter of authenticity. For example, in 1994, UP, I think it was, painted an SD40-2 emblazoned with the...
Norfolk Southern have also licensed their many fallen flags, at least for use in TS.
I think it depends on the tonnage. I'm in the Midwest and yesterday I saw a consist of about 150 mostly covered hoppers and tankers headed by...
Just to be clear, I think most of us would not have a problem with any vehicle that represented actual UP rolling stock. If it isn't a real life...
Which could include MoPac, Southern Pacific, Western Pacific, D& RGW, C&NW etc. So many possibilities, so few routes.
In TS, Sherman Hill and its Successor, Battle for Sherman Hill, were two of the best DLC made for that platform. With all the add ons that could...
No, you're not. This separation border has been a recurring issue on most routes since forever. I don't know if it's an artistic problem to do a...
Some portion of the old Nickel Plate Road ( NY, St Louis & Chicago ), perhaps Indiana, South Chicago areas - NS, CSX and Amtrak.
I think the Roadmap has long since passed its sell by date. It's no longer particularly informative or reliable. I prefer to simply rely on the...
I think a fictional Icelandic route would be a great idea! Think of the great scenery. And collecting volcanic rocks and a troll here and there!!...
Aren't we a sorry bunch of narrow minded jingoists?! :D And I disagree. TSW does mean, to me at least, The World of Trains.
As long as banking com is set up properly ( which has not always been the case in the past ), shouldn't be a problem.
Separate names with a comma.
