Yeah, same at Exeter St. Thomas and Marsh Barton. As someone from the area, this is very disappointing! Much prefer the Medway Valley approach.

That's disappointing. They really do seem to be robbing Peter to pay Paul with these performance issues.

Yes, but what I'm saying is would focusing on new customers be a better approach for that than focusing on selling DLCs to the existing ones? Who,...

You often hear that DTG's main aim is to attract new users, but a) is that true? and b) if so, why? Surely the number of players will plateau...

A few people seem sure that it's Wurzburg - Nürnberg coming, is there any solid basis for this? Personally I think it'd be an OK but slightly...

Yeah this is great isn't it. Just did a Tonbridge - Strood run and really enjoyed the vibe and scenery. Haven't even looked into the new features yet

Every UK TSW player just reflexively pressed the Acknowledge Sifa/AWS button

Does the 628 appear as AI? RB 30 and 31 at Nurnberg are services operated by class 68 DMUs IRL, so I expect that's the 642. They head off to the...

Yeah I did wonder about that, looking at some of the clips and streams. Which AI only services were included? If poor performance is leading to...

Has there ever been a pre-announced thing part of the main release, either as base or as a deluxe DLC? Dovetail tend to want everything the live...

There's obviously been a slowdown in German routes, but what's worrying is the reduction in new German rolling stock - the core TSW6 route not...

The connection is exactly what I said. GTA 6 is going to be the most popular entertainment product in history, and a lot of TSW players, whether...

I think it would be quite bad optics if they did they would annoy a lot of people. Different audience remember.

Dovetail must be aware that in November there's something happening that a huge number of people are going to want to have free disk space for. My...

And as far as I know, the expert-like features only come on if you have train faults enabled.

Red Vectron maybe?

Performance, I guess? Hopefully after other optimisation they can come back, it would be nice to see more variety on passenger and freight.

I feel like the addons would sell, even at a steady rate. James was £13, pretty much exactly the same cost as the motorised toys, and the range is...

I think I'm leaning towards the Newcastle to Edinburgh section over KX to Peterborough. We've already got two main intercity lines coming out of...

The main problem is that it's a section without many stations, and then you don't get a local service along the whole of the route. Routes with...

This would be a great route, but I understand there is a problem getting Stadler units in TSW. Not too long ago there were loco-hauled IC, and...

Glad to hear it!

Plus a few skip Ingolstadt.

From the Q&A summary, the 401 is not listed as drivable, which seems crazy to me. Certainly a shame.

Presumably Nurnberg to Wurzburg and Ingolstadt to Munich.

To me, LAMPOIL is satisfied by A partial high-speed, partial normal line experience (albeit a short run on normal lines), which is more fun than...

Yeah ICE2s did too, the service that splits at Hannover mostly.

There's definitely been ICE1s on this route - mostly replaced by ICE4s now, but ICE1 is a decent substitution. There's also plenty of ICE1s for AI...

The thought of Wurzburg - Nurnberg doesn't excite me massively I must say - it feels like the kind of fairly nondescript German electrified...

Oh really? I did not realise that

ICE1 is 250km/h in service nowadays. I do think this a good choice - in contrast with some other high speed routes, there is some regular running...

Hmm, you seem to be right. Looks like they use a 1440 (not gonna happen), or before that, a 143 or 111 with n-Wagen.

Also, does the SKA 442 have LZB? It will need it to run the hourly S5 services, which run to the Allersberg, the first stop on the HSL.

The Dresden - Leipzig 442 has more of those new features, so would make more sense, but for the VVO white stripe which I guess is too different.

Why was the 442 not included? I mean, most German rail fans will have it, but if anything that's a reason to include it. Without it, players...

Honestly I'd rather see the current routes fleshed out before they add new routes, as much as I'd like to see Edward, plus the Western engines. I...

I think honestly they just didn't want to bombard us all at once. I expect we'll see a steady trickle soon.

I don't think route DLCs will be a thing with this - not in the same way as TSW anyway - we'll possibly see extensions to the existing route as...

I feel like it'll probably be new engines rather than routes, and I think that makes sense - flesh out what we have now before expanding. I was...

I really like this idea. I think you'd definitely get a good trio of routes out of it.

The longer ICEs could sub in for double length formations of the shorter ones, while the shorter ones could sub for each other. The idea would be...

I know that joining routes isn't necessarily an option, but (excuse bad drawing), this is where Kassel - Wuerzburg (red) and Main-Spessart (green)...

Yeah, with a full set of DB layers I found Leipzig about as busy as it is IRL. Even in reality it can look sparse as it's so massive.

People who like German railways appreciate another German release. There's been fewer German routes than UK ones in this TSW cycle.

Thank you! I might buy that, I love EuroCity. There are a couple of superb (large) hardbacks on the service's history:...

Maybe I'm wrong, and this is quite minor, but I drove a Manchester to Llandudno service with the Pacer, and I was surprised it didn't cross over...

Ultimately it's a game that needs releases to maintain its momentum. It's more of a story game than sim, and any story game will tail off once...

The sectorisation era would be ideal was we already have: Class 86 Mk2 coaches (but a DBSO would need to be created) 314 which could be adapted...

The Thameslink core is ETCS too.
