It would be nice, though I can’t see a poll at the top?
It needs to come though I would like to see a slightly earlier era with heritage DMU’s (Cravens Class 105) and all that summer Saturday loco...
The EN57 does look nice and might tempt me over for a quick drive when it releases. Relive the spirit of the old MS-DOS “Mechanik” sim!
Which is why I say wait until we have the actual bespoke tool to play around with.
Yes it's a shame the cab doors are forced shut on the GW version. IRL there was no interlocking between the cab doors (or any other doors) and...
If the editor works satisfactorily on my laptop, something is definitely going to have to be given the chop. I have about 500Gb free on my working...
An encouraging report. Will probably still wait for the custom version to take a look, as I have a couple of loose ends I want to tie up in...
One yard is not quite one metre, so when your countdown switches from miles to 1000 yards you have just under 1km to go.
Best train interior IMHO viewable in game. Original Mark One TSO with wooden panelling on the walls, the large head rest seats and the tungsten...
1938 sounds are 75% fixed and actually quite good. I even swear to hearing reverb in the tunnels. The view out the front is worse for signal...
Day 1 for me if true. Hopefully the full run and not like their associate Thomson did with the TSC version splitting in two at Poschiavo. I would...
Just remember to open the HST cab doors before departure to fully value the thrash…
Placeholder for later… Found one on the Bakerloo 1938 stock Journey mode. Run from E&C to H&W, but you are following something close in front from...
Married life teaches you that!
It’s really not that bad, following the initial patch. The HST and 158 are more than worth the odd little anomaly on the route itself and on...
Including the train ferry portion… DTG’s first foray into shipping simulation! :D:D
It’s certainly going to offer more scenery than the Caltrain route which is also fairly straight and level. It’s a route I’ve wanted to see in a...
Not really. It’s a daft idea and I needed to say that!
I think the Bernina Line might be slightly steeper but would have to check. That shot from KrisKol is stunning, though of course in referring to...
Sometimes I wish we also had a downvote button. OP is quite ludicrous. It's a train sim, not a taxi ride. As stated a 20 mile urban route in...
For me the Kyle Line has really got to be set in the loco hauled era. A Class 26 hauling 8 coaches up some of the gradients will be far more of a...
Just had a very enjoyable run from Leicester to Derby with the HST. Late evening service calling at Loughborough, EMP and Long Eaton so lots of...
Open Street Map is actually far better than Google Maps for some areas.
While we are talking BR Blue, we mustn't forget the Southern Region and the original Mark One (or earlier) based EMU's - the CIG's/BIG's,...
Do you mean as in TSC?
That was ever the case Matt! Really easy to get carried away, 30 or 40 mile route in TSC or Trainz I can probably get the track laid in 10 days or...
If it’s something I’m really interested in, Day One if not a preorder. Something I’m a bit more cautious about will wait for initial feedback and...
It wasn’t always so with TSC, which is probably where the concern comes from. I forget which update it was, but my Bell to Lithgow (plus the...
Strange thing is, even when you build a UK (or American) route in TSC or Trainz, everything is metric anyway so it kind of becomes second nature...
Would still like something based on Dutch/German cross border at Bad Bentheim but set in the early 80’s so we can finally get some DB UIC stock in...
No Class 159’s came after the 50’s in around 1991. The 33’s were displaced in the early 80’s when more HST’s on the WR in turn cascaded the Class...
Reference track laying, sounds like elements of both TSC and Trainz Procedural at work. In Trainz it can be very difficult to get the procedural...
That’s an interesting thought. It’s more practical on routes where there is a frequent service rather than (say) Peak Forest where there might be...
One thing I will give Rivet credit for, is they do seem to have a knack for crafting interesting scenarios, rather than just dressing up a...
The one thing I have noticed is that dropping cutoff from even 20% to 15% seems to make a massive difference in steam consumption, more than you...
Well TSW4 should open up a lot more scope to do scenario planning.
Another good one would be part of Waterloo to Exeter, set around the transition from Class 33’s to Class 59’s. Although it is strange to reflect...
I'm certainly quite hyped and unusually positive! I think the route selection this time helps, even if I would have preferred a Deltic on my ECML....
There are so many candidates it is difficult to choose! Personally would like to see part of the Marches Line from Newport up towards Hereford and...
I would be interested to find out what the minimum operational pressure would be for a Jubilee before the loco stalls out, or more likely there is...
Excellent.
Very odd sounding loco though, but better than the singing TRAXX ones!
I now try and drive with signal distance off (have always turned the aspect off) but it is useful to still have the option. The main thing I’m...
[ATTACH] Okay finished my run. Game recorded as 53 minutes but the net time was 1043 - 1132 so I'm declaring 49 minutes. Very briefly... After...
Very true, which is why something like the Riviera Line with a mixed traffic Hall and a tank loco (Prairie or Pannier) would be IMHO a better...
I do think now we have four UK steam locos in TSW (well from 21st September) something ought to be done for German and North American steam. For...
Now and again. If you go back to 1995 and Transport Tycoon Deluxe, one of the things I always wanted to do was ride around the map I had created....
Exactly. Each train sim developer has their own business model. Run 8 for example sells routes (other than those with the initial install)...
:D:D:D:D:D:D
That will probably be my first dip of the toe in the water! Also key will be how the tools run on the laptop. Currently sat here with the TRS22...
Separate names with a comma.
