As a raving lefty I'll chime in. I don't think one design for all trains is a great idea, shows a total lack of imagination. However, I'm all for...
As a weatherhead I will at least defend DTG for implementing Dynamic Weather. Unfortunately it's not very realistic at the moment in it's first...
I wouldn't say that any of the developers will make a route "irrespective of what people want" because they aren't doing this work for charity....
Plus I would think that developers and many customers want to move on from the last couple of years of near constant WCML content. Carlisle to...
I know, it'll never be forgotten. What a parade it'll be within view of the ECML on Sunday week. There, brought it back to trains!
I'm an Arsenal supporter so I'm confident that anything is possible right now. I think it will be our summer, I'm smelling mud, cockle sheds and...
It'll be Trent Valley, I reckon it's going to be a release in the second week of June. Which means I'll be on holiday and won't get to try it out...
That'll be announced with the June roadmap I reckon. The sleuthing will start then as they usually slip in a cryptic clue about what's coming.
Some good calls here. North Clyde would be excellent. Wearside would be sublime, North Wales Coast would be the first proper route for the country...
It would make sense for a first TSW dive into the South Western area to take advantage of newly updated, licenced GWR content. If only for AI. I...
Away from my usual area of interest I'd be very happy with a 730 for the WCML and an end-to-end Thameslink Route. Bedford to Brighton with a BML...
For the UK? I'm not fussy [runs for cover].:D
Ah yes, lovely trains, the Southern livery made the 455s look so smart. Any Mk3-dreived EMU would a great thing so I'd be in favour of BML with...
It could come with two timetables. One that included the short era when they had 387s and the other a modern mix of 357/720. At the other end of...
Or "Deflation". Though that's a rare occurrence. But generally, yes, when the price of basic needs, rent, utilities and rates go up, so salaries...
Did you mean a Class 450? They've only ever worked on the South West Division. They'd add some life to Clapham Junction but wouldn't be of any use...
I'd pay £150 for a portion of the country, the whole of Scotrail, South Eastern or Greater Anglia. £20K though, no. I've never spent that much...
I think GBR should take a leaf out of Network South East's books. They would only allow a train to have the NSE livery if it also had the NSE...
I actually think your suggestions are realistic. I can see something like Glasgow to Ayr to get better use of the 380/385. That would be a...
I like this one. Given that 4 new trains in a TSW release is unheard of and that it would more likely be two new trains, which of those four...
Like all other suggestions in this forum, there's no guarantee that it will happen. Though it being part of one of the three big UK mainlines,...
I'm not sure if you used Artificial "Intelligence" for your summary but they were not built for British Rail's Western Region. The original...
Implementing a national livery has always been a corporate fever dream in the UK. 1950s Green is the colour, apart from black steam locos,...
No surprises from me from DTG. UK - C2C as above or Greater Anglia mainline Liverpool St to Ipswich/Felixstowe/Colchester Town and the branch up...
Yes often suggested. It could include the District Line between Upminster and Bromley-by-Bow, C2C services London to Shoeburyness (via 3 different...
100%. "TSW TVL" & "TSW WCTV" IMHO's OK.
As a general rule we tend to have a preference for the trains we grew-up with. Though I'd say I'm more of an area-specific rather than...
It's a shame the era and traction type are in the same poll as the scenery aspect. If that was a separate vote it would be for "mixture of urban...
Pros: I absolutely would love TSW routes in other countries (Spain, Italy, France, Ireland and Sri Lanka immediately spring to mind). I would...
Slight tangent but I remember one of those behind-the-scenes documentaries about our railways. The guard on an express (I seem to recall it was a...
The thing I most want in TSW 7 is a route that I love that is a realistic section or end-to-end route with interesting (i.e. not in TSW yet)...
100%. £15 extra for a reserved seat by a window in a quiet carriage would be something I'd happily pay for on most journeys. Except when going to...
Oh yes, through the national park. Lovely route, reminds me of the Norfolk Broads.
I like the Dutch route even if it's not the most exciting DLC I have. I'll vote with those calling for some proper French DLC first though. I love...
Yes, I agree. We're a passionate lot, we all want TSW to be the best it can be and I see these forums as an opportunity to discuss ideas and their...
Maybe it's because I'm old fashioned and miss the days of peaceful travel without constant automated announcements, people having loud phone...
There's nothing wrong with dreaming big, but there's also nothing wrong with others offering opinions on the feasibility of those dreams....
I love that idea, thank you. Start with a couple of nights enjoying Lisbon again then head up the coast on the train to Porto for a couple of...
I don't think anyone in here will be expecting me to say anything other than "Yes please". My no. 1 route even though I worked for its rivals...
The other issue is the amount of assets needed for such a route. Routes from big cities are already very memory intensive and that's with one...
Don't worry, it gets me too. I'm a retired referee and had to check the field of play before kick-off to ensure it's all within the laws of the...
Portugal surprised me, everyone I know who has been there said lovely things, but I genuinely didn't expect it to be so chilled, so beautiful and...
That's disingenuous or ragebait or both. Is it a "standard feature"? New features will apply to new releases. Rolling them out to older releases...
Nor would I rule out another French route. They always seem to be popular when suggested. TSW seems to be spreading its wings further than TSC...
Surely the answer is "they aren't getting announcements on existing routes just yet"? Being a new route, I'd be surprised if the Pendos are not...
Thank you, that's very kind of you. I'm pretty sure I did mention it in a survey and have also suggested similar in these forums. I know the...
Good points. I am absolutely in favour of developers trying something new and as MAX1319 says, there will be others observing this. Fortune...
Possibly the most unintentionally funny post I've seen for ages. Reminds me of commuters with no clue of how railways operate loudly offering...
Maybe it would have been nice, but additional work would have pushed the product's price point up further. Just so a small number of players can...
I can't understand the frustration about this not being part of the GWE for three reasons. 1. When SierraOscar95 has posted that the original...
