I can't recall many deaths or injuries occurring as a result 50 years ago, when 99% of BR trains had slam doors. The biggest danger was...
I ran the same service, Haribo, and though I was ready to depart on time the platform signal was red until a freight coming the other way cleared...
Thanks for that nice run, solicitr! The only glitch I experienced was an invisible (to me) 500Hz magnet just outside Köln which gave me an...
When this happens it's usually caused by an AI train somewhere else on the route. This shouldn't happen of course, but in a busy, complex...

It's the 'Orbit' tower, you can slide down it!
That's pretty much true of most arts (including theatre, painting etc) and sports*. The top handful do very well, but 99% of those who are good...
And we have packets of nuts with "May contain nuts" stamped on them. :o
I think DTG will have to take whatever they can get - they're not exactly in a strong negotiating position.
It's a great mod, useful and entertaining. My only quibble is that there can be quite a jump in weather conditions when it updates (every 5 mins)...
The 101 is drivable (and AI) between Carnforth and Morecambe via Lancaster. The Lakeland hills are bare in reality (this is Shap Fell) [IMG]
Were these companies paying €40 for their software?
Is it a fundamental problem with the passenger system or just poor use of it by developers?
The French call these Nez Cassé (broken nose) and for good reason!
There used to be a separate station (Reading Southern) for third-rail services to Waterloo, but it was combined with Reading General (Platforms 4A...
The central portion of the "Rapid Transit" Leipzig S-Bahn route is underground.
The fact that DTG estimate enough people will buy it at this price to recoup the costs of production, and maybe make a profit.
A very sad end, I'm old enough to have seen her IRL at York station - a beautiful engine, and could out-perform a Deltic with ease. Only ran on...
Lots of sheds (Class 66) on the continent, many of them still in EWS livery - this one in Nantes. [IMG]

Is it the weekend already?
[IMG] Sorry CP, I was wrong, they're Freightliners (though it's pretty hard to tell under all the clag!)
Our local (Chiltern) RHTTs are often topped and tailed by EWS class 66s.
1 Newton ~ ¼ lbf (or roughly the weight of an apple ;)).
According to Google it's "Wonderful!"
My bro has a spare laptop with a 64GB SSD which only has Windows (all program files are on a separate volume). But 24H2 starts by taking a backup...
This should be fun (so thanks trainsimplayer), but if I were a bookie, I'd have WCMLoS at 10:1 on for the overall win :cool:
DD carriages using modern automatic doors take longer to load/unload at each station, so aren't that suitable for the high density commuter routes...
I love the route and I'm being a terrible old nit-picker, but is the signalling prototypical? As I remember my spotting and travelling days on...
You can't beat the electric blue livery - my era :D
There are direct Eurostars starting from unsegregated stations (the Dutch ones were such until recently, and I believe they're reintroducing the...
I regularly go High Wycombe-Warwick to meet a mate (at the Wild Boar pub near the station) and always take the 10:00 from Marylebone, which is a...
Is that a file, or is it in the console for godmode when it's running?
Have you visited the toilets? :D
Carnforth also offers this opportunity. I hasten to add I haven't visited the facilities in every station on the route!
As others have said (and was pretty clear from the advance videos), it's a magnificent route and shows the full potential of TSW5. What most...
I have a feeling a (fictional) route on the Isle of Sodor would be quite popular. Of course it would be nearly all steam (except for Duck) :)....
There's an existing scenario (Back in service) where you couple an 8 car to a 4 car at Euston to create a 12 car and run it up to MK. Because...
Medicine in general and dentistry in particular. Scratch yourself on a thorn and die of sepsis, or tooth extraction with limited anaesthetics...
Friends who've done the Trans-Siberian have told me it's a week of watching birch trees go past 3 metres beyond the window. TBF I've done US...
Most likely never. But this forum is English language only (Google Translate is your friend, as my Turkish is non-existent).
I don't believe it's affecting current production (FABs hold stockpiles of such materials), but it might do in the future.
I don't think it's impacted the production lines yet, but the dreadful floods that are affecting the Clinchfield area (among many others) have cut...
Writing posts entirely in capitals is 'shouting', using capitals to emphasise or highlight a few WORDS is fine, though personally I'd use bold or...
