    That's realistic. That's your dvd and it'll beep because you're out of your seat. It's not a bug.

    Does anyone know why there are two empty stock moves from Four Oaks & Lichfield in the morning peak which aren't drivable? They don't appear in the game's schedule menu. They are 5U03 (0711 FOK-BHM) and 5P04 (0741 LTV-BHM). Oddly they appear on the PIS, and are driven by a ghost.

    I don´t think this is realistic, if you leave the Train you still hear the Safety Systems miles away from the Train...

    Yea but that's just how it works in tsw. You're the driver and it's telling you to get back in the seat. You technically are still in the cab since you are still in control The only way to not get the beeping is to turn on dvd

    IRL, do the drivers have some sort of pager linked to the safety systems, which beeps to alert them wherever they go?

    Thinking of it, there are possibly a few notable accidents such a system could have helped prevent, involving runaway trains.

    Then the Class 323 is the only TSW Train where you have (in my opinion) "the Bug". On all other EMU´s in Game you will not hear the dvd Peeeping outside of the Train.

    EDIT:
    For the first time i heard that English Train Drivers have Devices for the dvd Safety System....

    Ok, that may be because on the CCL I still get off the train more often to find a collectible, whereas on the SEHS I don't have to do that anymore and I don't get off the train. I really only noticed it on 323. I'll test this on the 465.

    No, the way to not get the beeping is to put the reverser into neutral before leaving the cab - which is what you’re supposed to do anyway.

    Just looked at this, how weird, you get in the cab and have no permission to drive the train, it runs normally despite there being no driver in the cab haha, currently hitching a lift to new street lol

    I’ve seen this on other routes, I don’t think it is a “bug” but I think a side effect of the way they made the alarms work. They make them “follow” you so that you can still hear them in external cameras so you don’t trip a safety system while in external view cause you didn’t hear it. But an unintended consequence is they follow you on foot too. Just my guess.

    Yes, it goes off after about half an hour on both routes. Have no idea why it does that. What I usually do is press TEST at a station to update it. Windscreen wipers randomly cease to work as well and that's even more annoying
