At the risk of being accused of excessive politeness - thanks Benedict. Otherwise brilliant route, by the way. :)
Thanks Benedict, I appreciate the update. If adding the arrival times back in doesn’t prove possible, please could JT release a document showing...
Thanks Benedict, much appreciated. Please could you also give us an update on putting the arrival times at destination back into the timetable?...
I think generally speaking a Euston-Glasgow will be 110mph (as these were normally formed of mk3 stock), whereas Euston to other destinations may...
You're right of course, all of the schedules should have intermediate passing times - they're essential for a Driver. But I've been on about that...
Thanks Tom. Unfortunately there was a lot of variation in dwell times in this era, particularly at major centres like Crewe and Preston. The...
Thanks eldomtom. I had a look, but that looks like a list of departure times from that platform, not arrival times - or am I wrong?
If it's going to take a while for JT to get the arrival time at destination put back in, I wonder whether they could release a list of the arrival...
That works - thanks DarthBelan!
Interesting! No, I haven’t. Thank you for highlighting this. I’ll give it a go tonight.
Hi Matt Q1 Agreed, Forward/Neutral/Reverse works. Q2 Agreed, use the whole range. This is the most important one for me. Using the whole range...
Tap changer locos don’t work with Rail Driver, because when you put the handle into ‘Run Up’ it bounces back to ‘Notch Up’ so you have to...
Great news, thank you Jan. I appreciate you and the team having listened to the feedback.
Hi Candace. I'm from the UK, and I find your tone absolutely fine. I like the fact that you're clear and to the point, and I find your tone...
The big media launch of Cambridge South was cancelled as it wasn’t considered appropriate after the recent fatal accident on the MML - it opened...
Brilliant, thanks Lamplight. It’s good to know the thread won’t be lost.
Thank you, it's very kind of you to mention the Steam thread. Does anyone know (I have zero expertise in this stuff) whether it's possible to...
Just adding my name to the list of people who would post on a new forum if one were created. I’d also be happy to do some moderating if that would...
The odd thing is, that means we can make threads about problems, but not about about anything positive, as that’s off-topic for a Trouble Shooting...
Great run, Lamplight, and some absolutely brilliant pictures, as ever. I particularly enjoyed the black and white ones. They’re like a step back...
Thank you. I’ve stopped playing the route since discovering there are no arrival times, but I’ll have a look at these.
Thank you for your response, it's much appreciated! I suspected that may be the case, but just wanted to check I hadn't missed any developments....
Please can the arrival times be put back as soon as possible. For me there’s really not much point in driving a train with no scheduled arrival...
Thank you for keeping working on this. I noticed that Matt drove the 86 using a ‘TS Controllers’ controller and that seemed to work fine. I’d...
Sorry, just to hopefully help with this, this is the BR Drivers manual for tap-changer electric locos....
If you’re on a rising gradient, you may well need around 100% power to keep close to the line speed. Your fixed formula of reducing power 10mph...
Ideally you’d run the taps all the way down before going to Off, but that isn’t always possible, either in the game or in real life. For example,...
Well, I’ve reverted to the Class 87 now (shame about the 86, but never mind - the 87 is as great as ever!) and the route is running fine for me,...
Has anyone found a way to get RailDriver to work with the Class 86/2 or 86/4, please? By default, when you move the lever to the 'Run Up'...
RailDriver doesn't work correctly with the AC electrics unfortunately. When you move the lever to the 'Run Up' position it drops back to 'Notch...
My understanding is the mk3 sleepers can do 100mph, although they’re timed to 80mph. So they do 80mph when running to time (to improve ride...
It is. The trains in the timetable which are formed of mk2 stock are timed to 100mph.
I haven’t studied the logs for a while, but from memory the crossover point at which the 91 would ‘overtake’ the HST was about 80mph. Given the...
I haven't driven Peterborough-Doncaster much since its release. It's not that there's anything wrong with the route, it's just that the traction...
Good news, thank you.
I posted my previous post before seeing yours, but it seems we’re of the same mind on this. 10+ coach loco-hauled trains tackling the South Devon...
I saw the 2019 Preston-Carlisle and it does indeed look as if they did a great job. Forward-dating of routes to the modern(ish) era doesn’t really...
You’re right, I don’t think DTG will back-date a route again. I wonder whether someone else might, though. GWE was an odd choice because the...
That would be superb. There used to be a mod (soon after Cross City came out) enabling replacement of the 323 with a 3-car 101. It was great, and...
Yes, perhaps so, but on previous JT routes a 101 could always be used in place of a 142. It’ll be a real shame if the same can’t be done on...
That’s a bit odd if the 101 isn’t layered in, yet the manual specifically mentions Leyland having a regular service to Liverpool. I’m not sure...
The 304 would be a great DLC, but the problem is the only place it could be driven realistically is 3 stops Crewe to Acton Bridge. The only way...
Thank you. Sounds like fun! I hope these services feature on the route.
That’s a good point. Any idea what they would have been formed of in this era?
Unless someone can correct me, there’s not much scope to drive anything which stops at any of them, I’m afraid. Leyland is served by...
That’s interesting. I’ve never played World of Subways 3 because I’d read that the physics are poor and that there are no gradients at all - which...
I think this is because, when you include the door open and door close sequence in addition to the door open time demanded by the dwell time...
Nobody should be relying solely on it, I agree - there should be other measures in place. But being aware of train movements around you is still...
For me, an aircraft having a flag on it feels natural, because they operate internationally. The same for a ship. Covering things which only...
Only trains with a certain headlight intensity (generally the most modern trains) are permitted not to have yellow fronts. Even then, there has...
