I figured it out. Turned the coupling one to zero, then apply, then back to 50%, then apply. All other settings then registered. Peace prevailed....
Dipped back into TSW. Fancied a trip with the Class 20s on TVL so chose the Railfrieght scenario (one of my faves). Opened using TSW5. All...
Been away for a while. Not played TSW for a while either. Doesn't look like much has changed on the forums or with DTG if I'm honest. For those...
Pedant hat on: 37699 was in triple grey coal sector livery from 1990. Would have expected to see a Laira machine, some of which may have still had...
Not read all of this so forgive me. Surely 8th gen users are going to be alienated either way you slice it? Time and technology move on. They'll...
The route looks amazing. Will I buy it? Unlikely. Main reason: I'm a locomotive guy. No freight (and I'm not buying ECW and a new Xbox to get it).
Looks like I've stumbled on the Flag Shag World forums...
Some freight would be nice.
I guess a railtour with a 40 could be added to the pack like you have on ECW.
Exactly. Possible but not probable. 46s sequestered from NE/SW services through Bristol and the West Country and 45s on coal trains from...
There was one 45 diagram out of Paddington (to Liverpool) in a very short period in the 80s. They were very rare outside of that. I don't think...
I'm struggling to get a locomotive from Old Oak to Paddington quick enough to leave Paddington on time. Keep getting signal checked multiple times...
No problem. I'm 100% sure DTG would want things to be better and would admit bugs and glitches are undesirable in the product. Moaning customers...
Sounds like a moan about the moaning, presumably because you want the forums to be better for you. Funnily enough those that moan about the game...
This doesn't repeat correctly. Approached at the off position (so merrily applied power) but corresponding signal at platform was on (so merrily...
I've noticed that both air and vacuum pipes are used with Westerns on coaching stock and both vacuum and air are shown as active on the gauges....
Shunter is locked/merged to coaching stock at Paddington and cannot be released, so gets dragged out on an express and passes signal at danger so...
It's a well known, long term problem. Chances of it getting fixed are close to zero I'm afraid.
45s would have been rare. Probably more likely to see a 46 in the 70s.
It looks pretty good with the 31, 47 and the prospect of some freight, provided you have the appropriate add-ons already. Not sure about 45s...
It mentions running out of Old Oak Common depot. I assume this means OO/OM and not the "The Factory" OC with the turntable. Recreating Ranelagh...
You could use the NTP TEAs in a resurrected Langley Oil Terminal. Chuck in the 47 and 31 too.
Saw the Instagram post with the blue Western and thought, oooh maybe a 50 at long last and a 117 too...then I read the article. Sigh.
I noticed this the first time I played the game but have kind of learnt to live with it (along with a few other things in TSW).
I think it's this service: https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H05917/2020-08-26/detailed
These trains have guards that open/close the doors and check/issue tickets. Not that it interests me, but I wonder if you could take over that...
It was an interesting watch last night (and on the other streams). Stumbling over bugs "live" for all to see. The ghost SPAD at Lewes, not being...
Great movie. One of my faves too. I believe Quentin Tarantino was inspired to use the Mr Pink etc in Reservoir Dogs from this movie.
Must admit, IoW doesn't fill me with joy. TSW has become a bit too "tubey" for me what with the Bakerloo line. From memory of riding the line, the...
Yes, it's an HST: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/aug/12/reports-of-serious-injuries-after-train-derails-scotland-stonehaven
I get this when I click the link: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
So day-to-day operation for a "driver" is pretty much getting to/from the depot and opening and closing doors. Doesn't sound like much TSW fun...
You sure? Thought Jubilee was ATO and the person at the front was to operate the doors and take over in an emergency.
Thought Jubilee Line trains were automatic and didn't have drivers?
I suspect "beta team" is DTG code for "customers" and the business model is to get the "beta team" to pay DTG to test their product and report the...
This is exactly what I've been thinking and I suspect that this is the case. Happy to be proved wrong.
Looks vaguely interesting. Only Bakerloo Line appeals to me but even then not that much. Maybe for the above ground section and if it includes...
Pedant hat on: 33s have never been dual heated. Always electric only. Don't have the Western but pretty sure it's dual braked so shouldn't be a...
I've never had a crash at Miles Platting on the Xbox One X.
The route didn't have AWS in 1983 so I'm told.
Interesting read. I might do a few more experiments to see how they compare now.
In this new age of honesty, the console version of WSR should, at the very least, have a large note saying something like "The Class 47 depicted...
What?! I've paid money for the game, what do you mean no one forces me to play it? I think someone came up with this argument before and it's...
On NTP it seems fine, but I still have a feeling the 45 is a smidge quicker. I've done the 6E36 from Stalybridge and a Leeds to Manchester. It...
Okay on WSR. 47 vs 31 from a standing start on the 14:15 from BL and applying full power, the 47 got to 30 mph in 2:22 and topped out at 35 mph...
I might be wrong. I applied full power pretty quickly and it seemed to hang at around 30mph on the climb out. I would have expected it carry on...
How do you know with any certainty that it would have been fixed anyway? It's still not fixed on WSR that I can tell.
After the update and initial impressions are it's still making a meal out of the climb away from Bishops Lydeard with seven on. Will try on NTP.
I note the mention of NTP but not WSR. I also note that my update is only for TSW and NTP (so far - just downloading now). I wonder if the 47 has...
I think TSW2 has certainly taken the gloss off the Class 20. It's a DLC for a moribund product. Maybe it won't be long before it's discounted?
