BR went through a phase of not fitting sanders to stuff. 47s were one of the victims, and I seem to recall 55s and 50s went through periods of...
Just to Clarifiy, the Seacow is actually a YGA not a YGB as modelled and the TOPS panel is in error. It doesn't have a vacuum through pipe (nor...
Blue Star does though.
But not the all important control air pipes
The 20/31/37 use Blue Star, the RHTT we have only uses AAR 27 way. The two systems are not compatbile. For blue star to work it needs the...
They are theoretically the same, the green one is "as preserved" which means it has the same derated engine as the blue one. The difference is the...
Yes fuel consumption is simulated, its just with such short services it barely makes any dent in the fuel level. The 08 for example holds nearly...
Side notes going back to the 8F, you can see at points I intentionally sacrifice speed for boiler pressure (I wound the reverser right back), once...
Anyway, take 2, dropping a hopper so the train is now 426T. I curtailed this after 2400m as I was bored and it was clear nothing interesting was...
Oo i love a challenge. So In this test I created an Alpine test circuit which is a flat area for the train to spawn on followed by a 2% gradient....
Yes I have looked into the problem. It was a problem with the door script... however not entirely my fault. The problem I found took over 2 hours...
I think you woefully overestimate what the 4F is doing, the 4F at most will sustain about 600hp or thereabouts which is enough to maintain 50mph...
Its a mistake to put it simply. In essence what you have is as follows. The reverser has an input of lets just -1 to 1 which is the linear...
The 4F arguable behaves as it should, it is not overpowered it will only happily sustain about 600hp at the rail which is about what it should do....
Suppose to an extent it was easier to find where the train wasn't and from that roughly estimate where it was in theory :P
But the roof shouldn't be dark, A) because the strip light isn't flush with the surface of the roof so it will directly illuminate the roof, and...
Literally nothing has changed at all. The last time the 47 audio folder was even touched was the 13th of October. Similarly absolutley nothing has...
Unfortunatley services kind of have to end with door close otherwise it confuses the AI no end. Not doing so caused all kinds of weird...
It doesn't prevent a downshift, and its impossible to act as a retarder anyway in this gearbox arrangement as there is a freewheel in the...
I think it was actually retained into the TL11 and Voith transmission days as otherwise if you had a mixed set which did occur and were driving...
No the Class 45 hasn't been touched in over a year if not longer, it is just a straight layer from NTP
Same with the GMPTE Pacers, they had a tendency of showing up in random places like this one on an Ormskirk Preston service...
Well there is one known crash relating to station display boards which I don't believe is unique to Preston either, this seems to occur at random...
I think its highly unlikely to be the smoke particles, they're the exact same emitters as used on virtually ever diesel since CSX, there is...
I think they certainly got more common from 1987 onwards, I believe the first of the 150/2s entered service towards the end of 1986. As for their...
Just to clear some things up here. Firstly top and tail dual braked locos isn't advisable but is possible. The quirk here is how dual braked...
No I'd say its probably a little more accurate than in TS1, the bouncing back is likely the fact when you apply the vacuum brake it lets air into...
Yes they can work in real life, but in game due to Rivet not using the correct MU system it won't work.
No they are not compatible, the 150 does not use the correct MU code so will not function with the 142. The 142 will however work with the 158...
All three 101s do perform differently. The NTP one is technically the more correct one as it got slightly improved with the preserved collection...
Should also note, that the ICI formations in the timetable are also running under capacity, with the services seeming to be about 70% of their...
So one thing that isn't entirely helping matters is the cutoff being shown on the HUD and reverser scale isn't *actaully* the cutoff the valves...
There are no player 110/103 services on the route, they are all AI only of trains either flying through or stopping at Bad Vilbel/Heldenbergen...
How to use it: -Place reverser in Neutral. -Select the desired speed with slow speed control switch. -If there are two 37s, press the slave cutout...
Thing you have to remember in the UK at the time of AWS, GWR ATC, HUDD ATC etc or indeed no form of AWS, there were always 2 people on the...
To be precise the first day of work on Niddertal was 27th of December 2021, although planning for it began around the time of Dresden Riesas release
Second party but I have a fondness for NTP, especially as it was the first route I ever worked on in TSW. I think the two DMUs following around...
It is my desire to do a timetable revise for NTP at some point (I have all the WTT for it), unfortunatley NTP has quite a number of signalling...
You really won't get any engine braking on these things because there is a freewheel device before the gearbox!
Well the reason for using step 2 normally is it allows yourself a bit of leeway if you find yourself not stopping quickly enough, braking in step...
Not quite, EU06 is a DC resistor controlled locomotive, while the 83 is a tap changing AC locomotive. They're quite different electrically and...
TSW implementation isn't "wrong" persay, but the adhesion could probably do with a bit of randomness to it. Currently it is a specific value which...
So on the Sprinters the compressor is belt driven off the engine, as such the output of the compressor is tied to the engine speed. In theory with...
Can you get a video of it occuring as it sounds a bit unusual.
Uhm, thats the slow speed speedometer, its only active when the slow speed control is active. The main speedo is working perfectly in that clip.
Not quite correct but close enough Matt. Goods timing and Pass timings related to how quickly air pressure builds up or vents from the brake...
It is worth saying though, for many of those things in TSC it took many many years for them all to be achievable. Counting from the release of...
I don't know, it is 15" gauge which is railway minimum gauge, however most of the assets like the rails are still standard guage rail proportions...
Nah, its such an insignificant amount of track its memory usage is minimal, no the track renderer not being happy can be seen in the above...
This was originally meant to be a bit of an Easter Egg route within a route with Dresden Riesa, unfortunatley time ran out and there were more...
Separate names with a comma.
