Sorry to say this, but I’m not a fan. If I understood you correctly, running with all safety systems on consoles (without a keyboard) means that...
I’ve got it as well and my first impressions are mixed, but leaning on the positive side. The trams feel nice and I quite enjoyed the street...
As OldVern explained, it's a camshaft control system. You can only notch up, not down, unless you return to off. See here:
I’d like more kettles but the sounds and physics need to be sorted out first.
Indeed, it would.
I can confirm that the cruise control works in that bugged way on PS5.
This is what frustrates me so much. Rivets' modelling is usually superb, but the physics and/or sounds undo all of that. I'd pick up IOW, 38...
Cheers to Matt! His knowledge and passion together with Sam's critical and honest approach were what got me involved with the community.

I was under the impression that that is a bug.
This seems like a good start for the basics on the US side.
I’m also sticking with custom weather. I find the transitions of the dynamic weather to be way too fast and as was already said, it gets foggy far...
What did they say again? New monetisation opportunities?
That’s my problem as well. I’m really struggling to see why so many see this as good news. I associate studios being bought with more rushing,...
Same here. I’m deeply distrustful of these things and in my experience, it’s never good news when a studio is bought. Guess we’ll have to wait and...
I'm curious to see what'll become of this. I've been very critical of Skyhook in the past, but I'm more than willing to give it another shot if...
Not true for Sony (Play has no limits and all that). On PlayStation, you can only request a refund if you’ve never downloaded the DLC. Touch the...
They're AI only, not in the menu. Even so, they don't seem to be all that frequent. Played quite a bit off Niddertalbahn and only managed to catch...
I think this is what's going on. Some routes have strong scenarios, others don't. I disagree that scenario quality has decreased overall. Take a...
It doesn’t for me. Sure, both cases are ‘wrong’, but in the one, there’s merely stuff absent while in the other you have actively added...
No, they don’t. It’s (supposed to be) a simulator.
Hard pass from me. Use the budget on an actual route instead.
Thank you for your insights! I was wondering if the set-up for the 110/103 was more complicated. Your tales from behind the scenes always make me...
From what I gathered in German forums and various YouTube things, you'd typically accelerate a 110 at around 40kn/FM. In a documentary about the...
Well, DTG have also said that they’re not doing vintage German routes because they’re too difficult and modern stuff is more interesting. I and...
And thank you for doing so. Didn’t want to sound dismissive if that’s how I came across. No, in Germany, we only use marker/signal lights during...
I’ve raised this so many times that I just can’t be bothered anymore. DTG’s tutorials/scenarios get it wrong consistently but no one at DTG seems...
True. I recently returned to Clinchfield and had a delightful run on the mainline. The potential is there (if the banking comm/consists issues are...
Almost the same for me, but I turn the signals off completely. My reasoning for this is that what I leave on is exactly the information EBuLa...
I think I’ll give this one a try. Usually, I’m not too keen on light rail but the different driving experience intrigues me.
This. I'd love to shunt in the docks around Ditton in a Jinty (or similar).
All the best to you, Sam! I pretty much came on board when you were at the helm of the community team and your work was and always has been...
Agreed. I’ve traveled on the Brighton mainline a lot the last couple of months. BML is a masterpiece, no doubt about it, but when I go the entire...
From JD: The 700 will not layer onto BML.
Very disheartened that the 700 isn’t coming to BML. Guess the lacklustre scenario planner will have to suffice.
Fantastic! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch! :)
Some fantastic pictures and documents in there. Thank you very much for sharing! Besides the VT98 we’re talking about, it reminded me how much I’d...
That’s amazing to hear! Obviously, not getting my hopes up since it’s an unlikely eventuality for now, but that would be an amazing addition to TSW.
Do you (or anyone else) have more information on how exactly they stop trains in the US? I get the bailing-off to stretch the train, but at what...
Yep. For anybody interested: In my diesel freight driver experience on the Nene Valley Railway, I was told to let the amps on a Class 45 drop...
Don’t know when or if they ran there, but I’d sure love to get one.
Next main signal should work. Time to beat the dead horse again: It’s EBuLa that tells you when you can speed up again (or route knowledge). The...
Same here. Played quite a bit of Niddertalbahn already and haven’t experienced this once (PS5).
Depends on how you look at it and what your preferences are. You can absolutely see the LODs change a lot in close proximity to the player to get...
I’ve only been on 158s four times and that was in the span of just two days. Still, I found them quite distinctive sound-wise. I’m not really...
Same here (PS5). The engines are always running and I can't turn them off either. Not a massive problem, but still - I like doing cold starts.
Don’t know how many people found this before me, but you can sit on a tree branch at Lindheim on Niddertalbahn. Lovely touch, that :) [ATTACH]
And, a long time ago at this point, Maik said that the experience of developing the G6 made him realise the difficulties of releasing new loco...
Oh, I remember that on their Tehachapi Pass II route set in the 90s. Caught me out quite often as I didn’t know much about US railroads back then.
I think that is true to life. I remember reading in a German forum that what 628 lacked in acceleration, they made up for in braking power with...
Separate names with a comma.
