Probably why we ended up getting the WSR add-on test DLC.. the distances between places were too far to keep my kids interested. Hopefully Sodor...
Hopefully this answers the ‘lack of freight’ on the 805 WCMLS and B2C timetables - compared with what it should be!
So the Freightliner Class 70 surprise also by default confirms that the Class 90 will be branded too! Sweet!
The 2026 series, which someone posted about somewhere, is due out in the Autumn. I can see it being timed alongside that, or not too far away!?
Haven’t had an issue so far, on Series S, which is surprising but absolutely welcomed! Incredible work, as you can probably attest from the many...
Does anyone know why there are no 350’s as SWT 450’s at Reading? I heard there were some that could be driven to a depot? Didn’t see any on Matt’s...
Core Issue. Noticed on Cathcart and B2C.
This would be a real Phoenix from the ashes scenario! I think the argument for ‘expansion’ would be either send it east on the mainline to...
Astute indeed. Periodic add-ons with new characters, stories and map areas will most likely happen - those that want to expand the collection will...
Presumably Bertie is a non-playable character, but being able to operate Cranky would be pretty fun!
I wonder if these will come later on as DLC. We know additional DLC is supported as James is a separate purchase!
I reckon they’ve thought about that, and for the kids it will be the ‘story’ mode.. and ‘explore’ and for the elders like us it will be...
[ATTACH]I like the style they’ve chosen here - similar to how I remember some of the books. It also looks to be the pause menu map, which is a...
Ah right. Well the preview stream starts tonight at 7pm apparently. I’m sure we’ll get a sense of it there..
Depends how realistic you would consider it.. but it states in the FAQ article that you can manually drive the trains from a first person in-cab...
‘The team looked at locations throughout all eras of the brand, from publishing to content, to build the best version of Sodor. Examples include:...
Well well well.. a Timetable mode within the game. This is going to please many of us seasoned TSW players! I wonder if it the stories will...
Reading about it on the official website, it sounds exactly like what you’d hoped for. A timetable mode if you want to treat it like a TSW game, 8...
6pm UK time tomorrow, hopefully with some screens and a video!
Trying to diversify my singular opinion on this, and have casted my mind back to the Winter Survey again. There were questions about model...
Great insight there. I’m convinced all over again. ‘Heroes in Flames’ is plural, and nothing is more plural than Thomas & Friends!
MML for me, as i tend to use it like a proving ground for new stock - more than Training Centre at least! Although a slow rotating roulette wheel...
Yep, and perhaps even beyond as the 171 is in true home territory beyond Ore. Still, can’t be upset at what is being done here. Rivet’s...
Maybe! Although I’m sure one of the questions in the annual survey referred to a stand alone Thomas game?
Sounds like a cryptic take on a Thomas adventure. Flames referring to the fire within the trains..
Stafford station has about five public information signs on the first platform, but nothing on any of the others. No platform numbers, no...
[ATTACH] Many of the trains looked like this, circa 2016. [ATTACH] This end is also open air, and second storey height. A special place! [ATTACH]...
[ATTACH] Cool little place! Four platforms at Montesanto - two heading southwest and two heading northwest - both meeting later at the terminus...
Definitely! I’ve ridden one of these to Pozzuoli before and the mix of dense urban environments (with the graffiti!) and the tunnels, hills and...
Did Circle ever truly go ‘around and around’ until the end of shift / day before it was Edgware Road based? Imagine loading this up and all the...
Probably the most thorough suggestion I’ve ever seen on here! I was sold by half way. I was sold again by the end. What a shame the distance...
5D20, Series S. Just ran this as my first service, on the Birmingham to Crewe route. Started off having to quickly figure the cab out, and...
Definitely. A template design to help guide, but also to be used as reference, should make life easier for 3P’s but also us players (unless one...
Could it be that the time of departure is intended to be the earliest possible time of departure, as before this ‘door issue’ existed we could...
An AI model should be built and used for complex signalling and pathing issues. All of this ‘Stop off Path’ or the train jams we’ve been seeing...
Stop Off Path strikes again! As someone else pointed out above, over 6 months ago, the service 2O50 gets stuck at Pollokshields East, presumably...
There’s a handful of us that do, and will try to be fair with criticism on both sides. I find it necessary for my own enjoyment to find reasons to...
Yes, so the door issue I must have anticipated without realising and closed/reopened from habit, that’s hopefully something the mooted January...
Whoops.. but yes, a 350/1!
January, although avoid any precipitation or wetness (or whatever they call it!) and certainly no dynamic weather!
Stumbled upon this! 1L71 on Birmingham to Crewe in a 350/1. Time it well and you’ll pass under a flying XC (heading for Stoke) at the remodelled...
Same issue, and I have the evidence! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] 4O21 runs south and is brought down to red, as Aroused by...
Great idea. I’d love to see this properly 2.0’d and given the love the GWE or SEHS has!
MML gets my vote, albeit begrudgingly! The first two Cargo Line packs added a lot of freight gameplay to the route, making the Mountsorrel...
Vaguely remember the pre-Electrostar era down south.. as a midlander who had a few books and cab ride VHS’s! There’s a single lead carriage of a...
Yep, although famously in the book series the author confused King’s Cross with Euston, and in the second film they show the exterior of St....
Yep. Almost forgot to mention Tamworth too, they get a few more XC passing there.
York. Definitely York! Huge station with a grand curved roof, adjacent to the Railway Museum, the ROC and depots/sidings.. and as others have...
Personally think Nuneaton will be the station to go to, in-game, with all the passing freight, XC and WMR services and drivable WCML stuff too....
Even if it turns out something was changed with the route, his statement there is still correct if he indeed didn’t make the changes himself..
Separate names with a comma.
