ttjph, I like your avatar!
I used it today for the first time and I like it. Don't have to decide on route or loco. Just click e.g. short service and one is delivered ready...
I not sure what you think is wrong. You have to turn on the radio circuit breaker which is located on the back wall of the cab, then turn on...
I was running the scenario 'Hoo Dares Wins'. It occured at the second requested coupling at Hoo (there are three requested couplings in total),...
It happened to me today. Class 66 engine shut down as I was creeping forward to couple up. It cut at the exact instant the buffers connected. I...
IRL what keeps the knuckle open prior to coupling? Is it spring-loaded?
Thanks for that sequencer. I think it would really help rookies if these details were corrected.
I decided to explore Cajon Pass by means of Rail Journeys. The UI would not let me proceed directly to the more advanced journeys without having...
You shouldn't eat baked beans last thing at night.
Today I was playing the 'Container Shuffle' journey on 'Rhein-Ruhr Osten: Wuppertal-Hagen', driving the G6 loco on my PC. I had three UE4 crashes....
Wow that's so kind of you to take the trouble to produce diagrams to explain the vacuum braking system. In conjunction with the excellent WSR...
OK, but in the absence of vacuum, what force pushes the brake shoe against the wheel? Is it a strong spring?
On a steam loco, what actually powers the loco's brakes? Is the braking force derived from vacuum provided by the ejectors? If so, then a loss of...
Yes that would further improve the realism.
You know I've just tested it and you're absolutely right. I've rerun part of the journey from the other day and sure enough there is visible...
Something I noticed today, if you open the cylinder cocks when going backwards in the 8F, no visible steam is emitted from the cylinders. Is this...
Thanks a lot guys. I understand the issue a lot better now.
Could you please explain to me at what point in the cycle the piston is compressing the cylinder contents? I thought that once steam has been...
On some SoS journeys the game starts with cylindercocks open, but the HUD incorrectly shows them as closed. So you think they're closed, when in...
I am so enjoying Spirit of Steam. I think DTG has done a great job in their first steam route. However I find the immersion is somewhat broken by...
Just run this scenario and found the same as OP. Tried it with front sand and rear sand. Can't seem to get any traction up the hill, just...
Maybe your speakers are not in phase with each other. Try reversing the connections to one speaker.
I like this idea, but only if the following are observed for US freight trains fitted with air brakes: 1. If an anglecock is mistakenly left...
Thanks, but I was already going as fast as I could before I got to the gradient. Unfortunately no chance of speeding! The load just seems too...
I'm really enjoying driving the Br185 freight services in this game. However there is one journey I just cannot seem to complete. It is the 12th...
You have to bring the reverser handle with you from the other cab. Click on the housing above the empty reverser handle slot to either remove the...
I believe the Liverpool Cathedral organ has the longest pipes (i.e. the lowest notes) of any organ in the UK. The lowest notes are pretty well...
Anyone know why the rather strange frequency of 16.7 Hz is used?
But the OP said he'd already done a file verification.
In YouTube you need to search under TS not TSW2.
I especially like the tendency for the train to start running down the hill shortly after you have coupled the locos to it, if you haven't applied...
I find it very quick to simply ESC through each of the startup screens. The only thing I don't like about the new UI is the route choice screen...
Yes, how about a BR Class 86 / 87 over Shap summit?
Ha Ha!
I believe Matt said that you get the tick in Journey mode to show that you've played it at the time of year and with the weather the developer...
Just experienced a UE4 Crash Reporter screen when only 0.6 miles from destination, driving a BR Class 20 without any resumes. A subsequent resume...
Playing on PC, I use camera 3 to look through side window of rear loco(s). Open the window to get in close, then you can see and more crucially,...
A similar problem occurs on the other side of the bridge in GWE - Diesel Legends - journey '5A18 Return to Old Oak Common' with a Class 52. Here,...
It's on the front wall of the cab on right side, low down behind the driver's seat. Stand up, then crouch down (C on PC) and probe around wall...
At journey start, you drive a Class 52 light engine out of the yard and climb up to cross a bridge over the other tracks, then go down the other...
You mean the brake pipe flow gauge now works? I've never seen it work!
If two cars fail to couple, make sure they are contacting each other, then apply brakes. Use free camera 8 to unlock one of the couplers, then...
I've found one of these problems on Clinchfield running on PC. It seems to happen at start of a service using SD40. You use camera 3 to check rear...
I've just run this service on a PC using an SD40 in the summer, without any saving and resuming. I got held at a red signal before a crossover...
Tried this scenario today. Brilliant scenario, my favourite so far in all of TSW2! You have to do it in one go. Don't save and resume as it causes...
Thanks. That sheds a bit more light on it. I wonder if Matt has anything to add.
With brakes applied, gauge reads correctly, but when released, it reads 0. This seems wrong to me. What does red needle indicate and why isn't it...
I'd not got Mastery to work on any route until I bought Clinchfield. Now it's logging my Clinchfield scenarios as I complete them.
I thoroughly enjoyed this scenario and am rapidly coming to the conclusion that Clinchfied has taken over my favourite route spot from Sand Patch....
I've just tested this on PC using service N542 Coal Rockwood to Cumberland: GP38-2 YN3b as lead, dynamic brakes give only very small effect....
