    Western Mainlines

    JT have released probably one of the longest routes for Train Sim to date with their Western Mainlines DLC. Paddington to Exeter, via Bristol and Paddington to Cardiff being the two main routes included alongside Didcot to Oxford and the branch to Avonmouth. Spent a good four hours yesterday in...

    A dark analysis of Thomas the Tank Engine...

    I did tell you not to watch it... :twisted:

    A dark analysis of Thomas the Tank Engine...

    Whatever you do, don't watch a video called Shed 17 on Youtube. I still have nightmares about it... :eek:

    David Bowie Dead

    First Lemmy and now David Bowie. What is going on?! To quote a friend of mine, 'Bill and Ted could beat Death, why couldn't Lemmy and David Bowie?'

    Rest In Peace Lemmy

    He was a bassist, not lead guitar... :lol:

    Rest In Peace Lemmy

    Even though my taste in metal music changed I still have a soft spot for Motorhead. Just wished I'd seen them more than once. I'm sure he's already teaching the devil a thing or two.

    TrainSim Screenshots [Large Images]

    Happens to me quite a lot, I swear the level crossings used to work better before, either that or the gremlins have turned the all the bus drivers along the Portsmouth line into psychopaths. :twisted:

    Euro Truck Simulator 2- interest in our own VTC?

    I'd be interested but I'll be doing no deliveries in Scandinavia, not after my last trip there... Delivering 20t of beer to a supermarket went fine until I had to reverse it into the smallest delivery point I'd ever seen!

    Euro Truck Simulator 2- interest in our own VTC?

    Well worth it, especially if you can get the Going East and Scandinavia DLC too.

    Trivia: UK's Squeakiest Ear Piercing Station

    Another one for Accrington here. It doesn't matter what train it is, they all make a metal concert sound like a quiet night in.

    E cigarette ban unfair?

    Nope, and to my knowledge they never have been.

    E cigarette ban unfair?

    It's pretty easy actually, most good e-liquid makers send random samples off for analysis by GC-MS.

    Future of Class 91s after introduction of SETs?

    I reckon they should be given 3rd rail compatibility, coupled to Class 442s with Class 142 carriages added for extra capacity ... and driven straight into EMR for conversion to razor blades. :twisted:

    Ctrl + S takes a screenshot without the HUD in the way. :D

    What do you think of your local station?

    Rishton Little more than a couple of bus shelters, some flower displays (which are well-kept I might add) and a bridge that I hate to cross due to the bouncy-ness of the walkway...

    Train packed - people won't move to get on and off

    Sometimes you have no other option than to physically make your way through people, they're stuck in their own little worlds with not a flying monkey given to the fact that they're obstructing the exit. I'm not getting carried over to the next stop just because some eejit can't be bothered...

    The Con that is Rail Simulation

    Its easy to understand why folk are annoyed with DTG for the lack of new features in TS2016 but at the same time I can kinda understand why Dovetail haven't updated much. The old engine has probably been pushed to the point where any further investment of time would yield precious little results...

    The Con that is Rail Simulation

    It'll update automatically but if you're after all the shiny new bells and whistles, such as the Riviera in the fifties route and some German and American stuff, then you have to pay I'm afraid. The majority of the update this year has been a tad disappointing for me personally, just a new...

    The Con that is Rail Simulation

    I'm going to wait and see what the unreal engine version of Train Sim is going to be like, it probably won't change DTGs pricing policy but hopefully it'll give them a solid core sim to build off.

    Shoreham Airshow Crash

    There's a difference between and opinion and fact, and saying that 'lots of people agree with me' doesn't really wash. My point was that, if you had cared to read my post properly, people in the aviation industry wouldn't speculate about such an incident. You know professionalism and all that...
