Very interesting. In Germany it's about the same with the horn. The horn is pretty much a signal of attention and danger. On flashing the lights...
I'm glad I'm not the only weirdo who does this :D I try not to do it when other people are around, but sometimes I do it out of habit and get...
Exactly my train of thought (sorry for the weak pun). In the recent months, so many threads and discussions here have turned into some sort of...
I don't want this to drift into another forum language discussion, just my two cents (again): In my opinion it's just a courtesy to use English on...
Nice job CHRIS 1 HS :) Very dynamic image!
I tried this one a couple of months ago, but it didn't get chosen. Let's try again. [IMG] Route: Mittenwaldbahn Vehicle: DB BR 111 And cows!
I don't have one particular favourite route, my taste fluctuates. But one I always tend to come back to for some good, laid-back train driving...
Hmm, the 204 doesn't sub into Maintalbahn for me... Over my dead body :o;) That actually sounds like a great idea for a rainy afternoon :D...
First of all, I'm not a big fan of Discord in general. If the forum really would die in favour of Discord, I wouldn't migrate there. The forum...
Of course I'm still excited to get the 294 and use it on future routes. But looking at the existing 363 services on existing routes, there are a...
I feel pretty much the same. Really hoping we will get a pleasant surprise instead of yet another huge missed opportunity, but my expectations...
Good point, I haven't thought about that. There are a bunch of 363 services which start very close to the next signal, or require to shunt to a...
On some routes it seems to actually do that, at least for AI services. I've seen 204's on Ruhr-Sieg-Nord for example, in places where a 363 would...
Ah ok, then I hope it will at least sub in for the 363. As much as I love the 363, the poor thing is in way over its head on some routes, with...
If I understood Matt correctly during the Roadmap stream, Dresden-Riesa will be required to get all the layers for Dresden-Leipzig. I really hope...
Straight from the roadmap: [IMG] This suggests to me that it will have timetable services solely on Leipzig-Dresden, and is available only for...
I second that idea. It's a nice little bit of extra realism on the Expert 101 or rather its accompanying IC coaches. Would be great to have on...
They are! Locos like that feel more "alive" and have much more personality than those modern plastic stick-pusher lawnmowers called Traxx or...
Well if the route really turns out to be Donaueschingen - Singen - Konstanz (and I can't think of any other Baden-Württemberg route where the...
Of course, if we'd get another historic route with some steam loco attached to it, I'd love to take it through the Alps for some railtour :) That...
Right, I know about that easteregg. But in my opinion, this just points to a new route situated in Baden-Württemberg being made, which might...
Do you have any sources for that? Heard it for the first time, and think it to be highly unlikely. Nitpicking mode on ;) The route was planned...
I wouldn't necessarily say that the love is gone, on the contrary. TSW is getting bigger and bigger, and so is its customer base. A lot of people...
To be fair, there are quite a few of both sides around here. The fanatical fanboys as well as the rabid haters ;) My thoughts on the topic: I...
Yet ;) *keeps hoping*
When this route came out, I noticed that my poor old graphics card was in way over its head with this one. So I decided to shelve the route for a...
Yeah the original timetable is quite lackluster... I get that the lack of period-accurate rolling stock at the time limited it, but the services...
If you accept the fact that it's not really 1984 (too many mint coloured n-Wagen and 628 around for that), it's pretty great. Better than the...
There are only orient red/beige and blue/beige IC coaches around, like on Mittenwaldbahn. The original ones from the 1997 timetable don't show up...
In light of TSW 6 and its new features coming up, I'd like to bring this thread back. With in particular the announcements and especially the...
Looking goooood :love: The images of the Czech route are amazing! I didn't think it was that far developed yet, honestly. Even more hyped for it...
Absolutely. The 294's cab and dashboard is rather similar to the 363's, while the 211/212 have two dashboards in the cab, one for each direction....
Well, in short terms, the 294 is the bigger brother of the 363. About twice as powerful, faster (80 km/h max) and thus more capable of heading out...
Don't know if somebody else has brought this up, but... The more I think about it, the more I come to think that originally Stuttgart-Heilbronn...
Will the BR 294 layer or sub into any existing routes? Or is it just Free Roam for now (which would be quite a shame, honestly)? Are there plans...
Sorry for double post, but... did anyone already mention in which era this route will be set? The inclusion of the Wittenberge cab suggests mid...
I don't know if substitution works the same way for cab cars as it does for locos. From a driver's perspective, the Dosto cab and Wittenberge cab...
Correct, this combination could also be linked with 111, the 143 family, 146 or the 218. Many opportunities for many routes :D
I agree, route and rolling stock look very promising. Finally another small-ish diesel route! One of the highlights of the Dovetail Direct for me...
Indeed, as well as the 218 and most likely the 140 :love: Agreed. It would make for a nice branch line though, I rather like this whole...
While I've always been critical about the abundance of multi-track electrified main routes in TSW, I'm still looking forward to this. :) The...
Oh, I wouldn't say that. The core content is a bit weaker, yes (the others getting a new route and two locos each while the Germans get one remade...
Certainly didn't expect this. Hopefully it will be implemented well :) The TSG locos especially with their complexity lend themselves well to some...
So, what did I take away from this year's Dovetail Direct? Quite a few things, actually. Dresden-Leipzig Didn't expect that one, for sure! It's a...
That's one of the reasons why I largely stepped back from partaking in the forum. The tone here has become quite uncomfortable at times, mostly...
Requesting more Dosto's is quite literally the opposite of this ;) Dosto's are the bane of German TSW routes, in my opinion. German rail has got...
Yep... that's what makes it feel so dishonest. It's quite literally a dealer/junkie relationship. Years ago, I've spent some (way too much) time...
First note: This quote is just one single sentence. Multiplayer or not, if microtransactions come to TSW, I'm out. I can see the sense behind the...
Honestly I still don't get why so many people are crazy for multiplayer in a sim like TSW. What does it add to the experience? The knowledge, that...
Small (and sadly very common) issue: Service 6879 from Bingen to Worms with the 628 starts in a siding near Bingerbrück, first task is to get the...
