Could it be that it's the mid child between the 47 and 52? Looks like a 47, strength similar to a 52... Class 57? I know that's a bit tin foil hat...
I have found a workaround for getting the brake systems to work on variants of the Class 47, after finding that the new Blackpool variants are...
The issue still remains identical to my original description. It even affects the brand new Class 47s from BPO.
Even just changing it to the rebadged DB version would have been better. We shouldn't have to ignore the locomotive entirely. The result is that...
It's the pump for the air brakes. Flying Scotsman is the only steam locomotive currently in TSW which has them fitted.
To the people who complain about the Class 66 in this pack, I do agree that it is annoying to be having what will be now our 9th Class 66. (2x...
I will stick my thumbs up to anything that gets us a Class 68. And the Forth Bridge would be brilliant too, either on this or on Edinburgh - Dundee.
Freightliner Class 70s have also seen use at Felixstowe docks, another place seen in TSC as part of the London Liverpool Street - Ipswich GEML...
It wouldn't surprise me if considering that at that time the Pacers were still only considered a temporary thing, there was some part of the...
They've got the DRS license now. In particular that opens up the door for a new Class 37, or in the bigger leagues a Class 57 or even (I hope to...
Colas would be good too. That license would open up the opportunity for a Class 70 down the road, since there's still no sign of Freightliner.
The key thing about this pack is that it's not freight workings, it's engineering works. It's akin to the previous use of the Seacow wagons on...
I've got my tin foil hat on for this one so fair warning. Let me just share this little interaction I spotted a while ago from the MML feedback...
I'll preface this by saying that I am glad we finally get a Class 66 that isn't in EWS livery, and I will get this as I am more or less committed...
Well I never thought I'd say this but I've just had a crash on PS5. It happened about halfway through service 6P65 Salwick Goods Loop to Kirkham...
I grabbed one from the yards at Doncaster that was already decoupled. Same way I once had Scotsman pulling EMT MK3 coaches. [IMG][IMG] Even though...

You should have seen my jaw hit the floor.
Bad puns? No such thing! Anyway, you can bet your bouncy suspension that I'll be there.
I think you just let the engine run down and it will switch itself back down a gear, kind of like automatic car gearboxes in some games. It's the...

To be fair though they have said that a good chunk of that time was slower paced because they had to learn what they were doing pretty much from...
Not when driven properly. A lot of the time in that stream the Pacer was being pulled off at notch five or above, but general rule of thumb for...
This is core, I ran into it when taking images for the screenshot contest a few days ago on Dresden and Southeastern
Let's not forget the fact that the very route this thread is for is set in 1986 visually but utilises service patterns from a couple years either...
Pacers still ran on that line right up until withdrawl around 2019 or 2020 I think, you can even still see one in Saltburn on Google street view.
Big ask perhaps, more realistically I think what could happen in a new TVL timetable would be Class 47 AI services both passing through and...
It probably won't be long before somebody does. Console players are out of luck on that front though, but maybe either DTG or this new SimTrack...
NTP is set before the Pacers were introduced. It layers into WCL as a happy accident, though not sure if it will use the right engine variant for...
This and the doors are patch or re-release material, either way part of the reason I'm not bothered by their absence is because I have little...
I remember it being said in one of the many news/update posts that the later versions were included purely for livery designer purposes. The only...
A video like that obviously can't be sampled for the addon itself but it can definitely be used as guidance. Anyone can tell that the engine sound...
That I do agree with from what little I know of the TL11s. I don't deny that the sound is off, my point is that when it comes to an extinct engine...
Call me a simple man who is easily pleased, but the fact that the TL11 sounds are remixed from 101 sounds really does not bother me in the least....
I can't speak for Cornwall as my time there has been pretty limited and I haven't been there in over a decade, but I lived in the area of Merthyr...
As I understand it, it was meant for there but then it didn't work so well and they threw it out. Then privatisation came and the Welsh valleys...
Thank you all!!! :)

I think something that also contributed to the belief that the era doesn't sell was the release of DLoGW. But that didn't sell badly because of it...
Lol yep, that's my other passion. There's 14 of them.
In honour of this route and how amazing it is, I have added an Inter-City Class 47 and blue & grey coach to my little Hornby display. Day one...
Disappointing is the fact that the coaches are such a blatant cut and paste with a new reskin that the MK2 coaches don't even have the newer...
This links back to the old days before even the big four operators, of which Blackpool was within LMS territory. It wasn't uncommon to see towns...
Currently known to be ECML, BCC, SEHS and MML.
Put simply, they had a dual braked commonwealth bogied BG already that they could reskin. They didn't have a dual braked BSK, or even BSO for that...
