Day1 purchase for me. :D But who would make the locos? ( by the way, Vern: baseball speak: " curveball " )

The best loco in the game is still the GP9RM, which you can only find on Oakville. The BR Class 101 is the best British loco. I don't know...

That's kind of a shame. Real billboards give the game a little more authenticity and immersion. I'll have to look for that one on SPG, hadn't...

Here's an American recommending TVL. Clinchfield could have been great ( it has the best scenario in the game ), but has a couple of serious and...

I play it regularly. It's my go to route for freight. Still the standard for quality route building in TSW. Took a long time to build and it shows.

I've always been fascinated by railways around the world. Frankly I don't really understand why you would be exclusive to just your home country....

Yes, Blackpool is OK for the most part. I too like to see my surroundings, so I drive mostly in daylight or twilight. There are some routes like...

I must say, the more I drive this route, the more enjoyable it is. Running the Preston- Ormskirk shuttle, I was struck by all the details, from...

Night runs are fine if there is ambient light from buildings and street lighting to add to the moonlight. It's unfortunate that, in the UK at...

Yes, and at the same time we need to trim the fat from the low- hanging fruit to take advantage of the bleeding edge by drilling down to the core...

Remind me not to order pancakes next time I'm in the UK. Who knows what they would look like? :D

I still have fond memories of playing MSTS. It had a much better save function and had locomotives and routes that we may never have in TSW like...

Hmm. I don't know England that well, but my understanding is that East Anglia is as flat as a flapjack. ;)

Well, with all due respect, it has been the best part of 3 years. Are you still looking at TSW2 routes?

Then please open your own thread and try not to be so cheeky. We're talking strictly US here.

It's depressing to have confirmation of something I suppose we've always known: that, if a route does not sell well because of some major and...

And the only reason I bought TSW4 was to get the NYT timetable and patches as I doubt they'll ever come to TSW3. Any interest I had in the three...

Yes, looking forward to that. Anyone taking bets on win, place and show? Even though it puts me in a coma, I'm putting money on ECML for most played.

Are you suggesting .......dare I say it.........a thumbtack?

Yes, in the case of Clinchfield, with all due respect to MP, I'm pretty sure it was the two or three glaring issues that doomed it for many...

I always enjoyed those Q1 scenarios on the Somerset and Dorset, with the tanks and Spitfire fusilages. ( with the occasional dog fight overhead...

Hmm. Is that actually possible? ;)

I really think that DTG are under- utilizing the Amtrak license and the apparent eagerness they have for TSW. There are plenty of Amtrak routes...

I always knew the forum was good for something. A feel-good moment?

Peak Forest is clearly the superior route. Glossop is almost a " one and done " experience, a single emu on a rather mundane line with average...

Well, personally, although I enjoy freight, I really don't need another freight route meandering endlessly through the Sierras or Rockies. I'd...

Why do we have to have this annoying discussion of " Mommy, when's the bus coming? " every time there's a new release? Can't y'all just have some...

Me too! ;) On a related note, playing BPO yesterday, I was thinking that JT has kinda taken me back to the days of SPG and TVL when routes were...

Not the best way to advertise your product.

I bought it last week on trust. It's to JT's credit that they fixed this so quickly.

( from today's update patch ) " Increased performance around the graveyard near Blackpool. " What, dancing, singing? I guess people are just...

Ooh I think they last longer than that. I've had mine since forever. Used almost daily, it still works flawlessly. I've heard of units that are...

Well ( sorry ), it's worked OK for the last 6 years. What other proof would you need?

Never going to happen. If you need proof go back to " the great pause " of 2022. DTG have evolved a business plan that obviously works well for...

Yes, but those two routes probably took most of a year each from concept to launch. Even with DTG's greater resources, do you think they could do...

I was considering buying it in the Steam sale, but reading the feedback it will need to be more than 25% off to persuade me.

As has often been the case, we drew the short straw with NYT. Naming and shaming brought us a revised timetable, albeit minus all the freight...

Must say I'm really enjoying the route. Couple of points: the 142 is really a rollercoaster, hard to believe it moves that much up and down....

I checked. Only three from the Training Center. If DTG weren't aware of it, they will be now.

I don't know why they're not showing up, but the RD is working on all my locos as usual, except the Blackpool ones. Honestly I don't look at the...

It's my understanding that Steam's non- UK prices are just guidelines, not written on stone tablets. US and Canadian prices are also way higher...

Maybe, but nevertheless you made a valiant effort to correct a wayward post. I too am having fun with the updated NYT, but I'm not oblivious to...

I really should put him/her/it on my ignored list, but his/her/its posts are good for a chuckle now and then.

Hmm. A loading bar for the game launch is a good start. How about a progress bar for overall bug- fixing on the main Home page? It should start...

I haven't bought the E- G route because I found the TSC version pretty dull. But the FC was a different kettle of fish and I would likely pop for...

Well DTG have a right to protect their intellectual property just as I have the right to protect my computer from the bad guys. Whatever the...

No. No-one wants an arcade game. But TSW is also supposed to be fun and somewhat relaxing and driving in total pitch darkness for an hour is...

Many of us have been complaining about night lighting in TSW for the last 5 or 6 years to no avail. Actually, it started out pretty good on the...

Its the same kind of enigma which sees some older PC's do TSW very well, but some bang, up to the minute machines struggle. Got to figure it's...

Don't bother; it would just be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Everyone would vote for a longer route, just as everyone almost always does with...
