I love the way you guys are having such fun driving the Jubilees. I hope the people at Dovetail responsible for ditching steam are reading your...

I feel your pain. Every time a route is released I'm saddened to think how interesting it could have been if set in an earlier era when there was...

The ejectors create the vacuum in the brake system. The small ejector is usually kept on all the time to maintain the vacuum against the...

Same here. The PS5 I was going to invest in can stay on the shelf.

Can I just add my feelings to this thread? I am extremely disappointed that the bosses at DTG have decided not to make any more steam content,...

Last thing I bought was Blackpool Branches and I had a great time with it but I have to admit, since they announced the end of steam and their...

I came across this game yesterday on YouTube, they were demonstrating coal firing where you could actually see the fire and place coal where it's...

Tees Valley would be my choice, with lots of AI trains going through Darlington, making it a bit like Preston on the Blackpool route. A more...

Just been on the beach at Minehead . Seagulls and waves sound great.

I'm on PS4 and I spawned on foot at Minehead to watch the Flying Scotsman leave. It was the only train on the map, no other AI trains running....

Moston.

Yes, I think so. I now have 2 trains an hour to get to Rochdale instead of 1.

I spawned at Preston at 0900 and an empty steel train came from the north soon after, hauled by a 37 so it does happen. I have seen the same train...

Congratulations to everyone who contributed to this route, it is just what I hoped TSW would be like one day. I never could understand why the...

[ATTACH] Took a van to the yard at Cargo Fleet. Should really have propelled it in but it was tricky.

[ATTACH] Delivering coal to the Chrome works at Allens West on the Tees Valley line.

Drove a steam hauled excursion to the seaside at Saltburn and here's the best bit, reversed into the sidings and ran round the train. The service...

On NTP I want to run a local shuttle service from Manchester Victoria to the bay platform at Stalybridge. It would also be nice to finally work...

Evening Star on the Pines Express. I wish.

[ATTACH] My dad's tales of his footplate days on the LMS were what got me hooked in the first place. Here he is at Patricroft, Manchester, oiling...

Two things putting me off upgrading to PS5. One, the thing is enormous and looks awful, and two, the thought of downloading everything again....

Northern Trans Pennine is my local route and Manchester Victoria is very well done apart from the footbridge which in real life was a subway....

There is, if I understood correctly, a class 76 under a tarpaulin which will be your reward if you complete the "mastery" thing. I think I heard...

It would be great if we could have an option to hide "medals" altogether. To do a perfect run only for a machine to decide your performance was...

I got it on day one and I haven't played anything else since. I'm on ps4 so it was nice to have the full complement of wagons unlike the Crewe...

Plenty of British steam locomotives had smoke deflectors, we just haven't had any of them in the game yet.

I had the same problem. Tried a few times, with the camera, on foot, nothing. It just doesn't register that you've uncoupled. 8F, ICI hoppers,...

Is it possible to turn off those "driver assistance " messages? Getting reminded about cylinder drains gets old pretty quick.

Only had chance to do a couple of drives but very glad I picked this up. The route looks great, signalling is superb and I love the 4F, apart from...

Just had a quick blast on the 8F and it was a much better experience. Safety valve noise is there but not overpowering like it used to be. Managed...

I've never noticed that drift position to be honest. I'll have a look when the update finishes downloading. Thanks.

If by drift position, you mean mid gear, no, no need. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snifting_valve

There are valves called snifting valves which open to atmosphere when you shut off steam. This is to allow the locomotive to coast freely, allow...

Another missed opportunity to appeal to the railway enthusiasts who remember going to Guide Bridge to watch class 25s, 37s, 40s, 47s, 56s, and the...

The parliamentary "ghost train" from Stockport to Stalybridge and back only runs once a week.

I hope the safety valve fix addresses the looping nature of the sound. Perhaps it's just me but instead of a steady hiss, I hear a repeating...

Looks like they've got their heads in the sand on this one. Very disappointing lack of response.

Still no response from DTG about this problem. I've just updated the game to the latest version and tried again after restarting the console. To...

Still no comments from anyone at Dovetail.

They aren't listening. At least 2 threads in Technical Reports detailing this issue, albeit not in the great detail you have provided and...

I think the only loco that layers in on the Cornish route is the class 47 as well.

The odd thing is, it's available for use in the scenarios which call for it, just not in the timetable.

No. I'm on ps4 as well and the maroon class 52 services have disappeared. There's another thread about it on here but nobody seems to be bothered...

Perhaps the intention is to sell a freight pack at a later date. Northern Trans Pennine had no freight services at release.

What a missed opportunity if there isn't any coal traffic to the power station.

Just had another look and the maroon 52 is still missing. It turns up in the West Somerset scenarios which require it though! Still only class 47...

I've got the same problem. No maroon 52 on the West Somerset. Also, no 40s or 45s on the Cornish route, just the 47 and 37.

Today's patch hasn't had any effect for me. Still gets stuck at Huddersfield.

The 1148 Marsden to Leeds on NTP still gets held at a red signal at Huddersfield. PS4.

They've been off ever since it came out in 2019. I have a vague memory of it being fixed, possibly when tsw2 was launched but don't take my word...
