Yea it’s a shame they’re disappearing... but I guess budgets etc have a part in it. Think of Boeing 747s, love the planes but they’re costing too much to keep, so newer twin engine aircraft are staying
I was meaning they are slowly disappearing. Think, only part of GWR has them, LNER has got rid of them, EMR getting rid of them soon. So just a couple with cross country, Scot rail and GWR cornwall
That was a intense race and the crash that happened in that area is the ladbroke grove rail crash which killed the drivers of both trains and the trains in question was a thames trains commuter train and a hst
@@MegaSim yes it is a great shame and I used to love speeding along that part of the line but since that horrible day they slowed the trains right down
No not true. It was the original intention, however, electrification was descoped, and all the engines were respecified to operate at full power (original spec derated the engines for reliability), as they would need to match hst speed profiles on 125mph diesel sections. Originally the diesel was only suppsoed to be used on slower sections. This change occurred many years ago before they came into service.
When the Class 800 IET were introduced to GWR was the electric power complete between Paddington and Reading? I believe they were on trail on the ECML at this time period.
@@MegaSim No bc GWE is mainly straight track with wide curves. If you run straight from Reading to Paddington and brake early enough (when passing through Ealing Broadway) , the ICE can't go so fast that it would derail.
ICE 3 in the UK... Nice! Tbf I kinda hope the ICE 3 will be the train type we will use on HS2... but as an open minded person I'm open to any suggestion
@@gabrielstravels An ICE 3 type train would be amazing. The velaros are the fastest train models in Europe with a top speed of 250 mph (403 kmh) without a speed cap stated by Siemens. And the Velaro in Chin reached 302 mph on its speed test.
Anybody know why you can only reskin certain trains? I want to do a GNER reskin of the Class 43 HST to run on the Tees Valley line but it doesn't show in the livery editor.
It’s not on the roadmap, so not at this time. It’s nice to use the ICE though, and possibly the 395 when SEHS is released as it’s a relative of the 800 🙂
Entertaining video, my only suggestion is to get an upgrade of the microphone, sounds like there is a little echo or something, but other than that, I enjoy this.
Not really, it’s not officially, or fully fixed but a bit of it has been sorted. Eg I tried to go from London to reading and had a red signal issue for the AI train
You have to select an off the rails scenario in the scenario planner settings then you can put any train on any route ( if it will fit in the platforms selected however )
The IET Class 800 for GWR is in the same family as the new EMR Aurora (Class 810). There are slight changes but yea the same. They're based on the Hitachi A-Train, so cousins with the Class 395 Javelin from South Eastern
Use the title, description, tags and thumbnail to the full! You need to be searchable. It’s slow first but you’ll get there. I started in 2018.... i was at 600 before TSW2 was announced (June) and had a couple of popular videos that bumped me to 1k. After that, youtube look at you more and promote your videos and it will slow grow more from then. Try and be yourself and have fun!
MegaSim 2 main -and obvious- reasons 1. Unreal 2. How can a electric and GERMAN high speed train go through tracks without WIRES? And no, it can’t go via third rail.
It’s an iconic train that brings so much to modern trains. Even just the seats on the HST are more comfortable than the class 800.... man they’re uncomfortable! Not sure on ICE seating
@@MegaSim Well the 800s accelerate faster, can fit more people and are better for the environment/disabled. The ICE can go faster and has all the benefits of the 800. But to be fair I wasn't alive when HSTs entered service so I'm not that connected.
I’m up in Derbyshire, so love it when I go on the HST compared to the 222 meridians. The 222 engines vibrate the whole carriage even in 1st class. If you are on a constant stop start service, yes the fast departure is better, but you can’t beat a good trip on the HST 🤓
@@MegaSim Class 800 have a better environment for the driver improved safety features including automatic doors, as well as modern train management system.
This game gives me constipation because it is so anally retentive! Haven't managed to start a single fcking train outside of the training scenarios! Too much to do with my life to remember all the start up procedures!

So the class 800 is just an ICE 3 in a great western railway livery.
They definitely spent alot of time doing that 🤣🤣
Nattyplayz yep,, I can tell.
They only take about 2 or so hours to paint the ICE. At least that's how long mine took to do in that scheme.
No. ICE 3 is built by Siemans
Johnny Boy no look, they just took an ice 3 and put it in a great western railway.

Fun Fact
While in Desil Mode the 800 ITE maxes out at 110 mph
Interesting! Hopefully I wasn’t speeding 🙂
Well.... I was on the slow line lol
That's incorrect lol. they can do 125mph

@@DexterPlayz_Productions same at that
Lol 😂
What platforms did you set them to leave from and go to.
I think it was platform 13 for my train, and the lowest platform for the HST. This was to ensure the slow and fast lines were used
@@MegaSim thank you looks very cool parallel running
👍🏻
Dovetail Games need to just add the 800 to this route, it’d be much easier and better
Maybe soon, hopefully a Cornish part of the route or something

How do you get the livery
ICE 3 in the UK... Nice!

Thanks for the tea!! 🫖
You could use the 397 as the 800
Im doing Class 395 (GWR) V.S ICE3 (GWR) to test the limits...
Then whoever wins faces the HST...
Are you filming it
Making a video
How do you use the ice on this map?
Scenario planner
@@MegaSim can you make a tutorial because I’m not seeing the ice in the planner when trying to use it
How do you set up two trains and make them race?
I create a scenario with one AI and the other me. With GWE, the AI needs to be on the fast line (125mph) whereas the slow line is max 90mph 👍🏻
How do you have other trains on a created scenario? When I create a scenario mine is the only train I see!
You keep adding trains but put them in the opposite direction
So if I create a scenario with a train leaving Darlington and one leaving salt burn at the same time they should pass at some point?
yay
WOOP WOOP 🙌🏻

*That's not my baby.*
So I know you can paint trains but how can you get them on other routes?
do you know yet?
uk need 800s
How did u take an ice to GWR?
Could you have run adverse on the other High Speed track or would the signaling stop you?
I wish. No you can’t go in reverse on the line, hence using GWE with 4 lines 🙂
@@MegaSim maybe you could try it on the East Coastway with the same assets. I have seen another TH-camr run adverse there.
@@MJBuses yes...his commentary was a bit annoying, but very funny!
How can you run on the track next to you on east coastway as it’s just 2 tracks... I guess the annoying commentary was the other person?
@@MegaSim Yes, it was...lol. I simply adore your commentary!
Is the class 800 going too be mafe available for this route
It’s not on the roadmap, so not at this time. It’s nice to use the ICE though, and possibly the 395 when SEHS is released as it’s a relative of the 800 🙂
We need a rematch -class 801
Hayes and Harlington is a train station and I live near it.
I used to live there too! Is Jenny’s still there in the town?

Are the same people who are developing the Horseshoe Curve: Altoona. God help us!
I know the Class 800 is just an ICE 1 in a custom livery. In this case, GWR.
You mean a ICE 3
How do you activate the low horn in console?
Plug in a keyboard and press N

Off the rails
How did you get the ICE train on the Reading-Paddington line?
Created my own scenario 🙂

Did the signal glitch get fixed?
Not really, it’s not officially, or fully fixed but a bit of it has been sorted. Eg I tried to go from London to reading and had a red signal issue for the AI train

Megesim the 800 is faster than hst because 800 is etty the class 43 is doste train
The HST will always been the winner regardless
Yes
what DLC is this?
all aboard!!!
NICE!!!
Class 395 is out so do a gwr livery on that please so then I looks like a proper class 800 (plus that class 395 is hitachi rail and the ice3 isn’t)
Yo mega sim! What’s up!
Yo Alfie! Good thanks, you?
Sure am!
Nice livery and logo,

Now just wait. The HST acceleration problem is on the way so you may need to redo this
I mentioned in my latest roadmap video that it doesn’t apply to AI. They accelerate fine, it’s when you are driving that has the issue
@@MegaSim oh interesting.
HSTs have very slow acceleration anyway
@@wharris302 - It would make sense. Long gearing to save fuel as you don't need acceleration if it's an express train only stopping occasionally.
