Does the license cover the entire class of N&W Js or just engine 611 itself? There were a total of 14 N&W J class 4-8-4s made across 3 batches...
Really impressed with this so far. The more I see of it the better it looks. Devs seem really cool and knowledgeable and from what I've heard in...
So if going by the argument of "poor sales", all that the TSW series is going to be left with is modern EMU/DMU content - which are so easy to...
Interesting. I suspected as much. I will likely move on to something else, Century of Steam is the only thing that looks like a possibility so...
So completely give up on potentially being able to drive the largest, most powerful, fastest steam locomotives ever built? Even something like a...
Apart from being able to drive the Flying Scotsman in preservation form, are there any additions to the steam simulation over TSW3? Are the...
I have seen some mentions regarding the safeties on the 4F and an overenthusiastic AI fireman, but I think this is a different issue because even...
I've noticed the 4F maintains near maximum boiler pressure at around ~175 psi extremely well almost regardless of what its pulling/pushing. I...
If and when DTG decide to do a non-UK steam route, which I suspect would not be until after they have released the manual firing update and...
With regards to the AI fireman, how about the ability to modify the AI behaviour of the fireman according to the steam demand at any given time?...
Will definitely be getting this, especially in light of the upcoming patch. So far Spirit of Steam is the only route I play 99% of the time in...
According to the April 2023 Roadmap article: Will Steam physics be improved? "The team are working hard to improve the physics of firing and...
Regardless of TSW2, the steaming at the moment does seem a bit poor, in TSW3 currently the Jubilee with 10 coaches even when being somewhat...
The steam physics patch to correct the lacklustre performance of the locos can't come soon enough. The climb out of Liverpool Lime Street with a...
What an utterly ignorant and dumb comment. If you don't like steam, don't buy it. Get over yourself.
What's This? First of all bother to read the post before commenting nonsense. At no point in the post was the statement made that the Union...
I would be surprised if a Jinty wasn't in planning as a future DLC loco add on for the route given how much effort they're putting into the route...
[MEDIA] A full on steam focused route set in the late 1940s (or as close to that period as possible) - for maximum variety of steam and when...
Upon release I would imagine the 8F being allocated shunting, station pilot and stopping passenger services, as well as freight of course. Heavy...
[MEDIA] LMS 'Little and Often' firing instruction video on a Black Five. I believe British Railways regarded 4000 lb of coal an hour as the...
Visit to Edge Hill depot in spring 1968. The only steam left at the depot by this point were Black Fives and 8Fs. Also towards the end of the...
Would love to see an American steam route set in the late 1940s. For me this would be ultimate railroading sim experience in TSW. During this...
Looking at snapshots of the depot allocations from BRDatabase in 1958 gives some idea of what future DLC locos are possible. I believe there will...
Very pleased with the route, especially as it's something new rather than a refresh of a TS1 route. As soon as they said Liverpool - Crewe 1958...
If it must include potential for diesel then 1958-1962 would be the best time frame, as anything later and many classes of steam locomotive are...
Glad to see that steam is making progress, waited a long time and can't wait to see steam appear in a modern up-to-date sim. Also, as a steam fan...
For a UK route I think at least a medium size mixed traffic locomotive such as LMS Stanier 'Black Five' 4-6-0 or GWR Hall 4-6-0 would appear, as...
I would hope to see at least some period steam routes eventually in TSW just to have the full steam experience (1950s to early 1960s for the UK,...
Agreed. I'd much rather see steam locomotives in their natural environment being driven in anger as opposed to casually trundling around on some...
This is great news. Been waiting years for steam to be incorporated into TSW. The option to play as the driver with an AI fireman or play as the...
I would expect the first steam locomotive to be from the UK, in particular a Stanier 5MT 4-6-0 (Black Five) or Gresley A3 - something that will be...
Some Interesting comments on steam locomotives in the FAQ of the official announcement of Train Sim World 2, which must be the most we've heard...
Year: 1960 Route: Covers part of the South Western Mainline (Waterloo to Weymouth), starting from London Waterloo going as far as Basingstoke....
The route covers part of the famous Chicago - Los Angeles route, covering a small fraction of it. Starting from Chicago and going as far as...
Releasing the editor and improving TSWs state so it is appropriate for simulating steam should among the priorities going forward.
Route: Possibly between Huntington and Charleston covering ~50 miles approx. My knowledge of US railroad specifics is very sketchy, so this is all...
Description: The route covers York to Darlington in 1969 along the East Coast Mainline in the post steam era but before the introduction of class...
Having the ability to select between say "Simple" or "Simulation" modes in the options somewhere should alleviate the difficulty problem. For...
Every time there is a new DLC I'm always secretly hoping its going to be a steam route or loco, although I know that's highly unlikely. Failing...
The lack of steam is getting frustrating. It would be fantastic to see something like a Gresley A3 in full Unreal Engine 4 detail that you can...
This route is for when DTG are ready for steam simulation Era: ~1941-42 Length: approximately 59.25 miles (95.3 km), making it roughly the same...
