It worries me a little when there is a sudden rush of product right at the end of the financial year. Why? Is there a sudden need for DTG to...
Yes - right at the end of the financial year too... Hmmm....
Elizabeth line train caught at double speed limit https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg452w2x5k5o.amp Come on - who was it? Own up...
Does Conductor mode actually work? Properly? Anywhere on any UK lines, other than Class 350s on WCML (South)? But not on Birmingham CC (trains...
I've just driven from Oxenholme to Windermere in free roam. Shame this branch was not completed - the track is all there, the stations planned and...
I think for a lot of us waiting for the annual JT route could become like waiting for Christmas!
No - I got stuck there, but I've seen plenty of previews so worked out the rest of it.
First look at WCML: Preston to Carlisle... This is the first route in an area I know very well, so I had to start with my walk to school and the...
Guard mode in Fife Circle. You can ask them for tickets but they won't sit down! Some hands even stick through the wall of the train. How did...
I take it that Guard Mode on Birmingham Cross City does not work? If I try to use it, after I open and then close the doors and press the buzzer,...
Anyone else managed to get down to the trams on the Fife Circle? If you can find a way through, they are a quite fascinating "what might have...
I am sure I heard or read somewhere about someone developing a new Oakville passenger timetable - but I cannot find anything about it. Was I dreaming?
Wow - have you got a tough act to follow! Really this should have been released last week, before Blackpool. Because now we have now seen what...
Given that this is BR in the 1980s, how do we know it didn't?
Completed my first drive from Preston to Ormskirk. Wow! Who needed Blackpool Pleasure Beach when you had the Pacer bounding around like a kangaroo...
Agree - scoring is still way too easy, and not just here. Everywhere. If you have all the warning systems on you're guaranteed a Platinum regardless.
First look at Blackpool and love it. And I haven't driven a train yet! What is glorious is the total immersion. This is more than just driving...
I love doing these in the evening, turning all the lights off. Real immersion!
I see that the new signalling system on the East Coast Mainline is getting headlines Train Driver Academy to raise the profile of railways - BBC...
Shame. Because its sometimes wrong. At least one train allegedly bound for Lincoln only showed Nottingham. Which is why I wanted to change it.
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but... How do you set a destination on the 158? There are instructions and codes in the cab, but no-where to...
Ah - thanks. I'd done a couple of routes but it had not registered them. Now it has! Still **** Christmas all the time, though...
How do I know if the Easter Eggs are turned on? I have been in the Mastery but cannot seem to turn off the Christmas decorations, so how do I know...
On thing I'd really like - and which exists in TSC - is a camera option that takes you inside a carriage. It would just be really neat to just...
Hard to argue TBH - it'll be £5 in the next sale, like as not - but I felt that the idea needs supporting as otherwise they won't do this sort of...
I've just tried the Edinburgh:Glasgow scenario and... its very lonely. I mean, the journey is fine - it's a good ride and there is a red signal...
I have to say that I was a little annoyed to see Dovetail say that you could use this train on other routes with Scenario Planner, as teir usual...
Yes - there is an Edinburgh: Glasgow run as well. TBH I had missed it because of the slightly odd way that Train Depot categorises things (its...
Loving Rivet's West Cornwall steam tour. Really great to be able to drive properly timetabled steam trains on a new route, though nine scenarios...
Enjoying the patch - but one problem. If you use a controller on the PC then pressing the right stick will toggle between the main cab view and...
I know - I was just amused to end up in the wild wood
Well, that is another "error" because I am Neither did I until Train Depot showed me this: [ATTACH] It is why Train Depot is a good idea... if it...
If you just onto a train to Alloa on Edinburgh:Glasgow your journey ends in a strange place: [ATTACH] Not sure what the building in the distance is...
Well, yes - but the whole point of Train Depot was to be able to drive a train without having to first know/guess which route it ran on.
I just bought the Class 66 RHTT and logged into Train Depot to see what I could do with it. The answer is... get very confused. What I did was......
Nonetheless the 314 services should appear in Train Depot
It's not - I checked. I got off the 314, walked to the 385 on the next platform, and turned on the display to get the date and time. I then...
A couple of strange things about the 314 railtour services on the new Rivet Edinburgh:Glasgiw route. Apologies if someone else has spotted them....
Strangely enough I really llke the black and white camera image. It was explained that this simulates the actual image from a camera on the 385,...
I totally agree. Scenario planner if no substitute at all for a properly designed in game scenario or (above all) timetable option. To offer this...
This is a fascinating thread about one of the stations on East Coastway: https://twitter.com/MrTimDunn/status/1589246075000434688
Worked fine for me - but why is the train abandoned at the OLD Rochester station??
Is the Riders on the Thames scenario REALLY meant to end at the old Rochester station? I mean, fine, if that is so - but dumping the driver and a...
All the umbrellas on the tube makes me wonder if there will now be a virtual lost property office for all of the virtual umbrellas left behind.
Exciting this morning to wake up to a full train shed! Given over a screen of engines to play with the ability to sort them is useful. Or at...
Minor point, but at the start of the tutorial it say to hold down a key to run = when we know that it is now run the default, and you press a key...
I've just noticed that my profile for all engines has imported... apart from one. The Stanier 8F. How can I re-import, either my entire profile...
I agree - it is annoying - but simply not giving you a train you have not driven before (as I suggest) would presumably sort this Also if you...
A couple of thoughts on Quick Play... It's a great idea. Seriously. I've got a given amount of time, and not that bothered what I drive. Let's...
