Enough is Enough!!! Stop arguing :)
Great to hear from you too and completely agree :):):)
I know the signals are a general issue rather than specific for this DLC but they are really poor. Even after passing the AWS magnet which is...
See 8:40-11:00 of this. At the beginning before you set off, you get a message from someone called Emily Turner saying there may be restrictions...
Don’t know if it’s already been discussed but I’m playing the “Hot Seat” scenario and what the hell was that TSR. From memory, got something like...
Thought I would add to this thread rather than create a new one. I’m enjoying LNER to a degree but the signals is still really ruining it for me....
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Not the best images but here’s what the dorman type signals look like in the day and dark. The signals are so bad in game that...
That looks excellent, hands down that looks much more realistic than what’s in the game. Colours are sharper and brighter.
The sounds of a HST are amazing, even the MTU ones (the engines they are fitted with these days) have a pretty nice sound
I’m very skeptical to be honest. GWR class 800s have ATP (automatic train protection) and on top of that, the whole fleet has had a speed limiter...
Wait, you reached a top speed of 140mph??? That’s surely a mistake
Cambridge dictionary definition of operative word: So LOT is the operative word as it’s the word you wanted to stress hence the most important...
Here before it closes :)
Feel free to add to mine if you wish. Grand Junction lines would work very well with the Stour lines (Birmingham to Wolverhampton via Dudley Port)...
I suspect they’re thinking of the LNWR services that used to run pre-COVID from Euston to Liverpool via Birmingham. Essentially, LNWR used to run...
No that’s not correct, Liverpool services have always gone via the Trent Valley 1 train per hour, xx07 leaving Euston calling at Stafford, Crewe,...
No, I mean it physically prevents SPADs from happening when it triggers the emergency brake application on the train. Nothing to do with driver...
Wouldn’t completely agree with this especially with many modern resignalling projects hence why I said it was a basic overview and don’t want to...
You’ve hit the nail on the head with regards to the benefits of AWS and that is exactly why it was brought in. TPWS is in the background and...
I appreciate forums can be annoying and infuriating at times but best thing to do is just give yourself a break from the forums by signing out and...
No not many actually. The pre-COVID VHF (very high frequency) timetable in place since the late 2000s was 9 trains per hour out of Euston. The...
:)
For passenger comfort and also because you have something in reserve in case you need more brake. If you hit the end of the platform at 40mph in...
15-20 mph 100 yards away works great not 30 yards away. At 100 yards, you’ll only need to use mainly step 1 with a bit of step 2.
Rulebook says whistle board applies 0600-2359. There is no ban to use it been midnight and 0559 however. I would blow it at any time of day to...
Yeah but 357 is the noob train on SCR :)
With the HST definitely yes, big cheer from me as well lol
Hey :) I need help deciding which US freight route to get. I’m thinking either Clinchfield or Horseshoe Curve. Which do you recommend?
Great suggestion :)
I believe it’s setup for ATO but a lot/all drivers haven’t been trained on it so it’s doesn’t run ATO. I’ll ask a TL drivers I know to confirm but...
It’s still manually driven isn’t it? I don’t believe it’s gone ATO yet
Come on guys, we can get through this!
Route Key stations Coventry > Stechford > Birmingham International > Birmingham New Street > Sandwell & Dudley > Wolverhampton = 32 miles...
It doesn’t seem to work correctly. The idea is when interlock is lost (I.e. doors are released/open), it should be red. And then when interlock is...
Will be dependent on traction but units that I’m aware of, egress can also be overridden the same way as passcom. Edited to add, I’d be curious...
The Banner Repeater for signal WP139 needs to be amended as it only applies for trains coming from the Down Derby line not from the Up Vauxhall...
The salary is definitely the best for a working class job by a long way. Even with a degree, it can take many years before you can earn a salary...
If I find out anything I’ll let you know, railukforums might get you more responses. I’d be surprised if they sell southeastern jackets like...
There was/is a SouthEastern driver but he’s not that active. I know quite a few ex- SE drivers as well, Is there anything you want to know?
A few years ago before they updated it, the Class 166 used to accelerate super quick like they were electrical multiple units as you describe. It...
Hi there, It’s for the level crossing. The X denotes it’s a wrong direction move (travelling in the opposite direction to the normal direction of...
Doesn’t sound correct to me. You can keep spamming the override button unless as I’ve stated speed is below 10kph. Whether that is practical and...
Yes, there is a passenger emergency override button/foot switch which when pressed will stop the emergency brakes from applying if an emergency...
With an overrun, as long as the following criteria is met, you may set back into the station: The overrun is less than 400 metres (0.25 miles)...
Like FD1003, I’m no expert on US freight (although find it intriguing!!) but having had a looking through the Norfolk Southern locomotive...
In the real world, there are so many different types of driving techniques so it’s impossible to say this is what a real driver would do. For...
It depends on the reason why you’re passing the signal at danger. If it’s because it is a signal failure, proceed at caution is the key word....
Fantastic to hear, hope you enjoy it!
I can’t comment about German units but with the electrostars (class 377s/387s), MITRAC is referring to the TMS (Train Management System). It’s the...
With regards to junctions, there are a few different ways to alert the driver that they will be going across at the junction: 1. Approach...
