    Looks like the route intro is missing from the PS5 version at least (I'm assuming there is one)

    I've often found the route intro is in Journey mode.

    The local door button does not work and effects the doors in no way whatsoever. Yet again so many things are broken within this dlc, you lot just care about the money and not the quality of your dlc releases.

    No route intro on PS4. Horn sounds from the 158 inside cab stutter, ie audio loop sample start and stop points. Outside the cab its fine, but apart from that its quite a good route, just wished it was longer.
     

  13. Its very good on PC Steam few issues i seen and yes u will see them in this video most were at the end when i went to go inside the HST Loco and at the station but yeah do enjoy the Full Replay of our First Look i welcome all Railfans to check it out..

    Can’t acknowledge dsd on PS5 controller via circle button. It does work with keyboard with Q button, however. Details:

    • driving Class 43
    • Service 1D07 London St Pancras - Nottingham
    • Custom weather, sunny, slight clouds
    • 18th April
    Other than that, I like the route quite a bit so far. As an American with only basic YouTube knowledge of how the stock should sound, the 158 sounds excellent to me and Class 43 isn’t far behind. Others can correct me if I’m wrong.

    The route is a nice drive, not particularly busy and more on the leisurely side. The timetable so far doesn’t appear to difficult to keep up with. There’s definitely enough distance between stops to let the 158 rip at some good speeds. Overall I like the route, time will tell if I keep going back to it.

    Maybe it has (or hasn't..) been asked, but I miss an introduction to this route? Or I can't seem to find it...

    Edit: sorry, has been asked. Playing on PC it isn't there either.

    If you have the RHTT 66. Do service 3J82. When you get to the end (where the service finishes) and it takes you to the this is how you did screen. Press return to free roam. It will then take you back into the cab but go and sit in the secondman's seat as you wont be able to sit in the drivers seat. Then sit back and enjoy the ride. If you are on PC use the 3 key for the camera movements around the loco and if you want you can press the free cam (8) and move around freely. Obviously this isnt finished and its not part of the route thats publicly available. So this is why its in the condition it is. But in my personal opinion I see this as a complete wase of someones time if its not implemented fully into the route. :P

    You can also have a look at how I did it in the stream below.
    If it doesnt show you the correct point its at 1 hour and 24 seconds into the stream.

    If im not mistaken, according to devs in one of the streams, they might think about creating extensions or something? So this could be there for future route building.

    You can also do this in BCC on a train being taken out of service at Birmingham-NS to find an off-map yard absolutely STACKED with 323s

    Loco dlcs. They referred to the inaccessible areas as extensions. So they hope to open those up with appropriate loco dlcs if they ever get to it

    When is a good time to spawn on foot at Paddington to see the Class 43? Or is the layer only for Gen9 and PC?

    Do you mean St Pancras? Any time (reasonably) should have a couple there.
