Oakville Local - A Free Roam Idea in Train Sim World
I had this idea for Oakville to do a Local Train. I had grand ideas of flitting around and building up a switch list, then I figured out I only had an hour so I was a little less organised about it just taking whatever I felt like to where ever I felt like.
This video was originally shown on DTG's TrainSimWorld channel during the autumn sales and will now release here initially as a members only video.

Railroader Experimental Branch Updated to 2024.6.3
มุมมอง 11012 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
The Railroader Experiemental branch has now had a huge update to include timetables. Timetables are initially aimed at passenger trains but can include freight. This will be very helpful for timetable and train order operation for those on multi player. You can see more in RR's own video at th-cam.com/video/H_TrE44jLo4/w-d-xo.html which explains timetable construction very simply.

      @JonBurrows1990 does it show up red when you try? If it does that means another train has booked that bit of track. Look in the timetable and find it what time a train departs, spawn into that station on foot just before it's due out and as soon as it leaves the station try to spawn your train on the track it just left. That gives you the best chance before another train grabs it. The other way to do it is use free roam from the main menu, then there's no other trains in the game so you should be able to put it almost anywhere

Tied those cars down and then headed back to McHuntley Yard and picked up some grain hoppers and then switched the other ones out in the wood consist from before then proceeded to make up a grain train to transfer out of the industrial zone and onto the mainline. I’ve also done switching on the newest Californian route, the MetroLink one. You should do a free roam on that line. Especially the section where those so many industry tracks between Pomona North and Rancho Cucamonga I think the section is. It would be great if there were more switching timetables on the San Bernardino line route, so much gameplay to be had to do local switch jobs. Would be cool if they could simulate the unlocking of the derail or catch points on industrial spurs and not to mention the gates of rail served businesses like they do in real life when they do local switch jobs. But for now, I don’t mind doing the free roam stuff and letting my imagination run wild.

    The amount of bile this announcement is causing is really quite astonishing.

I'm reminded of the words spoken to the rabbit, Thumper, in the Disney film Bambi that I saw in the cinema as a child: "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all." Train Sim World is about the world of trains and Thomas and Friends is a big part of the train world for a lot of people.

      It is interesting isn't it. It has been quite polarising. I guess some people feel that their simulator is threatened when used for not so serious aspects of our past time. I use the analogy of the heritage railway I work on as a fireman - we run Thomas on our railway and there are people on our railway who hate it because it isn't part of our heritage operations. It is fine to have the opinion, but the reality is that Thomas is a huge fund raiser and money from events like Thomas keep the heritage operations happening. Without them we'd close.

    I certainly won't be buying it but seeing they got Thomas the tank engine name . Is almost like they're not doing enough of it it should be making a separate route or even the island of sodor. As much as I'm disappointed with the announcement think they could of done more with it but maybe this is just a test or a starter so to speak They hyped it up so much and just seems ...lacking

      @@badguy89o32 given its going to have a simpler control scheme (that I hope comes to everything) it's targeted at imo several audiences: TSW players with kids in the family, TSW who love Thomas (don't under estimate this market - people who want to relive their childhood), people with kids looking for a game for them, people who like Thomas stories and want a new game (this isn't the first, they've come out about every ten years since 1990). This is potentially a massive audience. When we run Thomas days there's plenty of mums and dads into trains using their kids and Thomas as an excuse to come to the railway.
