That makes sense, since the worst stress on filament bulbs is when you turn them on. Personally, I usually do Zg1a on both ends when I'm shunting...
During the day, no lights are required (but you can use lights as you would during the night). At night, signal Fz1 must be displayed, which is...
This is unlikely to be a hint for anything TSW related. "SGE" is the acronym for the "Eintracht Frankfurt" football team. I guess Lukas is a fan!
The signals are quite far apart on that section. There are shorter "virtual" blocks for LZB though, so the experience will be quite different...
We "are" not getting a 189, we "might" get a 189. At some point. Maybe.
No, the voltage change is on the open line between Bad Schandau and Děčín. That means you always need a multi-system loco to go across the border....
There are plenty of videos of the real thing on YouTube where you can see and hear the real locomotive. This is a particularly good one as you can...
A loco that can't go abroad is actually more interesting though: loco change at Dresden-Friedrichstadt means shunting, brake tests etc. It can...
It's not a red light error though if the train has a green light in front of it, is it?
Oh yeah, the old 101 can get very confused with the door controls sometimes if the loco and coaches aren't facing the same way. I had that problem...
To be fair, if a train's not moving despite having a green signal, that means there's something wrong with that train, not with the route.
Scrapping the airport was definitely the correct decision back then, and doing Friedrichstadt instead of the airport is still the correct decision...
It's not the only blue/beige 363 these days though. AIXrail aren't the only private operator who put their old ex-DB locomotives in vintage DB...
The 140's a good bit shorter than a 185 or other modern locos, so that won't be a problem. It's less powerful than a modern 3AC loco, so it won't...
Depends. If there are multiple copies of a vehicle in the game, then there will also be more scenarios. There certainly aren't "only a few"...
That is not true (at least, not anymore?) - the Dresden S-Bahn currently uses classes 143, 146.0 and 146.2. There used to be 182s, yes, but they...
The 143 does not work with the Karlsruhe cab car in game. 143s had East German KWS34 from the factory, which is not compatible with the n-Wagen's...
For timetables you don't really need to test every single loco Nah, they don't really. As long as they still behave mostly the same when driven...
Layers themselves are not the problem. You could just deliver everything as an update to the Dresden - Riesa route, and as long as a few important...
That's very true. I thought the same thing earlier today. I'd love to do a full local freight turn from Aschaffenburg to Miltenberg and return in...
Well, if you didn't have that length limit, it would just sub in for the 363 everywhere... and if a service previously had a stop marker set up so...
They never said Morecambe would be accessible though, did they? I'm very confident that the route will have everything that they say it has.
Oh yeah, true! Well, DB was never squeamish about putting freight locos on passenger workings anyway.
Just Trains has however said that the route, quote, "includes [...] a multitude of branches which will allow you to explore a number of...
It also affects services without these physical constraints though. When you make a formation in the timetable editor, you need to specify how...
The 294 is much longer than the 363 or G6, so unless some timetable author really thought about future-proofing and configured their services for...
It was THE freight locomotive for more than half a century. There were 850 of the things, and they were in service with DB from 1957 all the way...
I'm quite hopeful that this route will actually offer something meaningfully different to pretty much all the other German routes: some good...
The line is set in the early 2000s - the lines and stopping patterns are almost certainly going to be quite different to what they are like in the...
I would assume that "reworking Dresden" means applying the improvements that were developed either between the times that Dresden and Frankfurt...
This doesn't run from Dresden to Leipzig. They go towards Berlin.
I don't think it's been confirmed anywhere whether or not the problem is that there is a limit to how many DLCs a game can have on the Epic Games...
Ah, but given the modifications done to the 294 when fitted with the remote controls, a 211/212 would be a really different driving experience...
The 290 is based on the 211/212 family. It's heavier for better adhesion and regeared for heavy shunting. The 294 then is a 294 that's had remote...
They're extremely similar to Hl signals, just with even more aspects for more different speeds. You can decide if that's good or bad - personally...
Given the atrocious level of service on the RE50 in real life, not having the 5+3 formations isn't too bad in my opinion. If anything, for...
I agree. The RE50 is one of my favourite services to drive in the game, so I'm very much in favour of putting an Expert loco on it even of it's...
Yeah, it could be fun! Maybe for a future Heilbronn-based route?
And the have KWS and ZWS, so they can (and should) go wild with the loco substitution on this route! 110, 111, 143, 146, it all works! I don't...
I don't think it's that bad. There are more exciting landscapes in Germany for sure, but it does add the one thing that DRA originally was...
And one more thing: Stuttgart's S-Bahn tunnel is pretty short, and it has just four underground stations (Hbf, Stadtmitte, Feuersee, &...
Wittenberger Kopf and 140 are both awesome. The route itself looks pretty interesting too: big terminus station at Stuttgart, the south half is...
Sounds like a good route to me. As well-made as Preston - Carlisle is, it does get boring quickly for me because it's so long between stops, so a...
Do the CSX locos have ATC & ACSES for running on the NEC? If so, this could finally be the route that gets us US freight trains with safety...
I do agree that Dresden - Riesa actually isn't as great as people generally think it is. It definitely has the potential to be that good though,...
Yeah, the option to use the 145 on regional trains is pretty cool! At the time the 145 ran between Leipzig and Dresden, the route was pretty...
It's not. It comes with the ČD class 843, a Czech railcar from the 90s. [IMG] Petr Štefek, CC-BY-SA 3.0 cz
Large families of similar-looking trains aren't a new invention. Deutsche Bundesbahn had a four-digit number of Einheitselloks (E10, E40, E41,...
Not a TSW issue. The rules for which speed restrictions get (which kind of) PZB magnet(s) are a bit more complex than "anything under x km/h gets...
It has: TSG are giving a share of the proceeds from the E94 pack to the owners of real-life E94 088.
