Manchester Oxford Road, the station that is almost visible from the end of Platform 14 at Piccadilly.
In my opinion this is one of the main reasons why TSW hasn't had the level of expansions that TSC has, it's seemingly being gatekept by DTG, and...
Doh! Yes of course, I completely forgot it was 1986 and for some reason got it into my head that it was set in 84. I think it might have been with...
Just a thought regarding Crewe, in 1984 it was undergoing the rebuilding and re-signalling wasn't it?
Thanks, it was hard trying to find anything I may have missed amongst all of the announcements, updates and other threads :)
Sorry to bump this thread guys but has there been any news on the route? With all the new things being announced I can't keep track of what is...
The thing is, there isn't really a freight only route in the UK that is a decent enough length to warrant a DLC, it'd have to be part of something...
I am almost certain that they revealed it was in order to keep it "fresh" in the storefront, particularly on consoles. I'm almost certain that...
I've not played it this year, I got a new gaming rig last November and setting up all of the DLC and custom content has turned into a chore -...
Yeah I agree, I think a big part of the issue with running on seemingly endless greens is that there just isn't "enough" traffic out there,...
That's quite alright for the rambling nostalgia, it's most welcome :) Knowing what management were like they probably clamped down on that quip...
No not yet :(
Unless JT build the Liverpool spur of course :p Little quip aside I expect if they don't add Liverpool to the mix then they will just end up...
As someone who's driven 50s and Deltics (in pres) I definitely prefer the 50 by a country mile, they sound better, are much better to drive all...
Stuff like the Royal Scot could start from the slow lines just south of Crewe, as though it had been signal checked :)
It would be a good addition indeed, it would work in a railtour pack but also could layer nicely onto the NTP route too (albiet with a slight...
The Heysham branch wasn't included as accessible since there were no passenger services in that particular era, freight trains were basically...
Yeah, I really enjoyed Blackpool Branches and played it a lot but did lose interest in it, it got very repetitive, very little freight and most...
I'm not entirely sure if it is different on the console to PC however if you encounter the same situation again you might be able to access the 2D...
Don't forget the large marshalling yard at Basford Hall and the smaller one at Warrington, got to build up or break down those Speedlink consists...
I forgot to add, as for a new loco DLC (not counting the upcoming 142 obviously) my money is leaning more toward a 25 though a 56 is possible. My...
I honestly don't think a complex route that is nearly 200 miles long is possible in the current game engine, just think about the timetable mode...
I think the situation has changed now from previous years, TSW5 and now TSW6 at least offer a "free starter pack" so we get the new updated engine...
I would expect so, it's not particularly long so shouldn't be heavy on scenery demands but has a challenging gradient. I think the big issue with...
To be fair, while you are correct they did "run" the 85 (might have been the 84 actually come to think of it) just a few years back, lifted off...
To be fair, I did enjoy thrashing a 37 on the WHL in TSC but it was mainly because I was getting the most out of a AP enhancement pack, the...
Well the Co-Bo would be a fantastic addition, I am sure that once we have him running again there will be plenty of folks out there wanting to do...
The S&C in the 1980s was atrocious, BR were desperately trying to close it down and services were very limited. If however you mean as a present...
I fully agree though find a slight irony with your current choice of avatar Vern ;) I understand why DTG went with it, you know them getting the...
Hear hear! I was about to demand the branch to Scarborough so I trust Newcastle is an easy extension to include ;) Joking aside, yes it is a...
I am almost certain that they will be adding in some branch lines, the fact that the route is 40 miles shorter than Shap should give them plenty...
Well you said that you'd have liked a commuter style route, if when they give us more details they reveal that they have included the Wigan to...
Yes, there are still plenty of stations Crewe - Winsford - Hartford - Acton Bridge - Warrington BQ - Wigan - Leyland - Preston, the question is...
As does NTP, the enhancement pack that someone made is brilliant but it just needs more traffic more than anything else. I was on NTP last night...
Ok so I've had time to think after my initial comment yesterday (it was the only way to get through my time in the dentist's chair). I am still...
I've not seen anything other than the "ticket" thing posted earlier however I am delighted with this, I had "called it" months ago when the 86 was...
I can't sit through all the "pat each other on the back" in the video, can someone give me a quick rundown as what has been announced so far? I'm...
It is a shame as there is so much potential, even with the route as it is. Ok so they don't want to give us new locomotives (really need some...
Yeah certain Gronks have specific workings, like the Hardendale workings are only available to the rather well weathered loco. Some are "based"...
Not OP here, TfW did use 175s but then briefly replaced them with 158s (usually just a single set) on the NWC-Airport route, 150s and 153s did...
There was a mega lash-up a couple of years back with something like 5 x 153s on a Manchester to Carmarthen service ;) You are right though, the...
Apologies, was just going from the default date of June 5th :)
Which would be a bit of an irony if it is not included in the pack given that it is set in June 1986 (though totally understandable).
You may joke but I have wanted the Disneyworld Monorail in TSW for years, when I visited as a nipper back in 1993 it was my second favourite ride...
Out of interest when this has happened had you already done one "run" and stayed in game to do another? I've noticed that problems can build up at...
So I've only been able to do one run today (been a long day flying to Kos and back with work) but managed to do Preston to Carlisle with 86239...
Heads up gang, JT have put the manual online, enjoy some light reading or looking at pictures ;)...
So TSW uses the "Unreal Engine" right? Surely they could give us a gun, nudge nudge ;)
In theory the non-London services which are currently operated by the 87 will be replaced by the 86, they are sadly not subbing the 86 in on the...
I agree, starting a railtour by "loading passengers" to find that all of the carriages empty and you then run the tour empty due to the stupid set...
Separate names with a comma.
