100% agree. In terms of route my memories are primarily working Waterloo to Exeter services, preferably west of Salisbury where there are...
Suggestion is too long for a TSW route. Need to think of a 50 or 60 mile section which is going to be Newcastle to Berwick or Berwick to...
Yes why not just do like Railroad Tycoon 3 where one train faded out as the other passed through it and immediately give the player train the game...
Towards the end they did, which is why the 33's were brought in to replace them on Cardiff to Crewe services and 37's on the Cambrian Summer...
Late 80's - the missus was with me which kind of influenced the decision, LOL.
At one point the Norwich to Birmingham service was operated by a mix of Class 120 and Class 104 DMU's so I have a feeling the 31's took over from...
I remember boarding a Birmingham bound train at Norwich with a 31 on the front, intending to go all the way through then back to Swindon via...
Well although I am sceptical about Skyhook and the 158, it's a bit unfair to post a diatribe condemning them before the DLC is out and tried. The...
I did put a couple of my TS routes on RWA back in its early days, but soon asked for them to be taken down after falling foul (who, me? :) ) of...
Sadly not as much as those posting detailed propositions might like to hope. Otherwise we would have all sorts of iconic routes for the UK alone...
The emphasis seems to be very much on freight operations. Although there is some Amtrak stock available operations are a bit abstract as you can't...
I have a fair bit of content in TSC I have barely touched. Agree re MSTS. Even in Open Rails it is so horribly dated now. In fact I told Trainsim...
Haven't checked in at RWA for a long time, couldn't get around the belligerent forum moderation of anything remotely critical. It's not really...
A possible solution yes, but then we end up with the scavenger hunt for dependencies which specialist central repository for train sims tend to...
Looks like Trainsim dot com might also be foundering a bit. Their forum, which only sees light traffic anyway these days, is now swamped with...
The Kyle line was laid to Route Availability "5" so it was limited to light axle locos, which is why the Class 24, 25 and 26 Type 2's were the...
Noticed there seems to be a bit of rose tinted trolling going on recently. We are all here because one way or another we enjoy what TSW offers or...
See you down at Cal Portland or maybe on the Buttonwillow or Arvin branch! Seriously some of those branch lines and industry spurs in Run 8 are...
Absolutely this. They could, if sincere, acknowledge the concerns and concede they need to pull the route for a month to go back in and rework...
It’s ridiculous they still haven’t fixed this to reflect the running mileage left, rather than as the crow flies. TSC and MSTS etc. manage it...
Seconded. I’ve gone off to play Run 8 for a bit because I fancied a change and enjoy the more detailed industry flows you can get working. However...
Plus excursions and the Jacobite steam trips. Go back into the 70’s and you could feature the mixed trains - a couple of fish vans and an oil...
Agree the poll could have been worded better but even as someone with no particular knowledge of the prototype, things seem far from right here....
I have had trouble stopping the trains on Cajon. Even on level track virtually no response unless I put the train in emergency. This is with...
Limitation will be the timetable regardless of era, but that would be offset by the scenic splendour.
Should also be placed in Technical Reports and give a clear step by step description, including whether resuming a save game - which still has...
I enjoy TSW very much but of late things do seem to have taken a downward turn. The price increase, the one route, one train policy. New UK steam...
After getting back into Run 8 last night having similar thoughts. In truth the only forthcoming DLC that might be a Day 1 purchase was the Peak...
Absolutely behind you on this Gary. ATM I'm just hoping (not a prayer man these days) that Skyhook don't botch the 158 in the same way so at least...
It’s a shame in some ways Run 8 don’t expand more into NE passenger territory and update their game for more realistic passenger operations. They...
Fair enough. Anyhow posting the above inspired me to fire up Run 8 after a gap of about 3 months, shifting the Bakersfield to Los Angeles Oil...
Not sure it actually works in TSW. have seen it functioning in Run 8 though, both on the cab display and the tickertape HUD. In the case of Run 8...
Amen to all the above. The 31 ranks up there with the 40 and 45 as the best UK traction in the game. But it's little short of negligent that no...
Agree. The worst thing is the apologists who blindly refuse to acknowledge valid criticism. DTG are not a charity or doing this out of the...
Using the UK PIS is really inexcusable. If time was a constraint better to have gone with a static placeholder and throw the route back at the...
Exactly this. It's what Kuju and their EA masters wanted in the run up to Rail Simulator in 2007 (later Railworks), even to the point of having to...
Or a British long distance express with no buffet or restaurant car... :D:D:D:D Or a new UK route which is going to finish in the middle of...
Must admit I haven't had anything from the US/Canada routes but it is finding me some interesting stuff I wouldn't necessarily have tried otherwise.
Looks like that's the first of the five new routes to gain a miss, £150 potential spending now down to £120...
Even better if it hadn't been offered up and accepted by DTG QA in such a woeful state to start with.
With respect, question addressed to DTG not you.
Mixed views on this as it’s the closest thing we have to a career mode. But when you can do a couple of runs on Bakerloo and it nukes itself in as...
Got to be BR Classic Blue era.
So much for hoping for UIC stock, then.
Vapid Transit would be fun if the trains actually made some sound...
Or the hard seats!
Regards the coaching stock, I would hope we might see some UIC types, AM, BM etc. as used on the numerous D trains which used this line. It was...
Late item regarding the save game. Improvements to restoration of the signalling state are noted and appreciated. However there is an ongoing...
Something like Westbury to Taunton would be good. If you include the Frome Loop there are only three intermediate stations. Mendip stone and a bit...
I can understand to some extent them holding back a route editor, but really no excuse at this stage for not having a decent activity and consist...
