    Alright I'm tired of asking, please just give us another steam route. The buffer problem on the current route has, and does happen on other classic British routes. Literally any route and engines will to for me. It would be a good way to get an audience test of weather or not non British steam routes are popular, and if the "rocket" problem is just the physics with the British buffers.

    If you don't put the route you want in this suggestion then how are we supposed to know what you want?

    SOS was a test of whether british steam is popular. Matt said it was a very successful product. SOS isn't in a great state and manual firing doesn't exist which was promised since it released in tsw2. There are other unique issues in steam dtg want to tackle as well. So I'm assuming until that happens, steam content won't be made anytime soon. Best you can do it wait. And in terms of creating other steam routes, finding reference material is extremely difficult since steam existed like idk almost 70 years ago or something and most documents are not available easily

    The flying glitch is from the coupling mechanism

    They have 2 LMS Ivatt Class 2 tanks. All of the standard 2 tanks were scrapped as far as I am aware

    How about Leipzig Riesa-Dresden in the 1970s-1990 that way there are German Steam locomotives running alongside Electric and Diesel locomotives

    If they were going to do a us steam route the best 2 steam routes in my opinion would be the Western Pacific railroad set in 1938 or the Spokane Portland and Seattle railroad set in the the early 1950s.

    Yes, if any other steam route would be worth considering, any former DR (Deutsche Reichsbahn) route in the 1970s era would be preferable....
    Like the Berlin-Stettin route was for MSTS...

    Hopefully tonight will shed some light on new steam content, I'd love some GWR steam personally.

    I have seen some too and well they have peaked my interest and could be the best route this year: I am really chuffed. Anyway I am going to finish some sherbet spaceship things and head of out to watch Forest play and hopefully Leeds (a game nearly as big as Derby used to be but Leicester are bigger rivals for us now) foul a player in the box and we will be able to score goals 4f un in what will be a match with high speed action and players sprinting all over the pitch.

    Hopefully you have seen the same leaked pictures as me or I have just wasted time turning my Sunday afternoon into Riddles.

    The Big Boy and Challenger are good ideas as loco addons for sherman hill, they can be sold separately or you can buy them both as a twin bundle

    I agree with you and as a matter of fact East Germany Deutschen Demokratischen Republik Deutsche Reichsbahn did run locomotives all the way to the German reunification on October 3rd 1990 here's a video from 1989 Leipzig Hauptbahnhof
    with a Steam locomotive (German documentation Dampflok)

    Great nostalgic video! But if it was recorded in the summer of 1989, when East Germany was still sealed off from the rest of the world, it was either a West German visitor coming from the "Leipzig Trade Fair" or the video camera was a gift from relatives in the west. Luckily the Berlin wall fell very quickly on November 9th and a short time later East Germans were finally able to buy a video camera too. ;)

    Thanks for the feedback and I'm wondering what portion of 1989 was the video recorded because you do see the existing locomotives DB Baureihe 143 Pressnitztalbahn DB Baureihe 155 Ruhr-Sieg Nord Baureihe 232 in the Deutsche Reichsbahn Baureihe 132 243 250 paints

    It could have been the spring of 89, when there were many foreign visitors, including some from West Germany. There was always a spring and an autumn fair in Leipzig. Anyway, it was the last year of the GDR, so you can see all former DR (Reichsbahn) locomotives and trains in action. Special steam locomotive trips also took place regularly in the spring. Freight steam locomotives, such as the BR52, were not completely decommissioned until 1988. So much later than in the former DB (Bundesbahn).

    BTW: steam locomotives was the topic of this thread, so my suggestion is already mentioned in the comment: is the BR52, already known from the poster in the "Training Center"! ;)

    I believe after a quick search of buxton station which they said in stream it's the ashbourne line around 33 miles. Though only one new train so far.

    I see what you did here. It would have made little sense if I had read it before the stream.
