At 4:44 and 9:03 the guy is talking about steam chest pressure (the bottom needle), but in the video the damper indicator (the bottom set of stripes) is highlighted instead on both occasions.
I would love to see more steam locomotives come to the game. I.e Mallard, Flying Scotsman, American steam locomotives big boy or even some tank engines.
Don't leave the large ejector open all the time, it uses a lot of steam, it's for releasing the brakes quickly, leave the small open to maintain vacuum in the train pipe.
I have noticed the brakes will slowly apply again if you don’t set the brake handle to a hook. There is a small hook for setting the handle in position and unsettling it to use the brake handles. If you look around where the brake levers are to release,unreleased it will say unset if you haven’t fixed it into position after finishing with brake levers. So Set the hook to the handle to stop I assume the back pressure building up in the brake pipe line which slow the train down because the levers haven’t been set in position. As I say this is a assumption but I have played around with this hook and it does keep the pressure from moving. I have played with the larger vacuum release handles as you do I have done this from the start because of the issues pressure,brakes and with not noticing the hook. Once I did the large vacuum didn’t really come into play until needed for its main purpose. I haven’t used the small vacuum handles as much. So I will after watching this tho. There are hard drive tho I’ve done about 73 miles hip hip admittedly on low pressure so hardly got up to speed,60 I’d say was the fastest on down hill grade but now I know a little more thanks to this. So let’s give it a go,,,I can’t be bothered trudging along at 30 to 40mph and taking all day to get anywhere. Hopefully I’ll be a try express driver after applying some of these methods. I do wander if they built the some type of physics in the loco as all locos behaves differently and at different times. Hence why they said locos was either having a good day and happy engine a bad day a grumpy engine. They was so alive so like I say have they built this into the physics of how the loco behaves if any at all?. I know they have with the sounds as if you driver the train wrong it’s sounds well not like a steam train operating properly,,,but when you do it will sing too you. So that’s good in a way from the sound guys at Dovetail. Get it right and the loco sounds good. Trust me I experienced it for about 5 mins,,,before I started to sound like a pounced tyre losing air,,then grinding to a halt,,,because I lost all steam pressure. Yey.
@@TheNoGamer44 Matt mentioned in the second stream you can regulate the fireman to an extent, but didn't elaborate a whole lot on that (there's even setting for that in the settings menu)
Use more regulator! 😉That's the biggest drain on power, particularly when the third valve is activated at approx 66%. Perhaps switching the fireman to Assisted mode so that you can manually control the airflow, then turning off the dampers and blower.
What you have to do is you have to go to all the red freight cars. And by the wheels find a lever called vacuum release and then put it to release. This will release the brakes on the red cars and then you’ll be able to get the train moving.
@@dallasmann7904 dampeners next to where the fireman's feet would be on right hand side under the window so hard to see means you can keep boiler pressure and go fast
If you glitch under the map and go underneath this locomotive, between the 2 inner drive wheels, there's an invisibe lever called the Heat Valve (closed/open) what the heck does that do? and what are the levers under the drivers seat and the fireman's seat used for?
do you know how to release some steam pressure, the safety valve going everytime i stop is annoying. I have the steam firing mode on manual so the temps shouldnt be going up while stationary.
@@gamerdeol2694 you would normally quiet her down by injecting water into the boiler. Especially if water is low. But don’t think you can do that in TSW atm.maybe turn the blower down a bit. sorry can’t be more helpful. 😕
So I would have liked a toturial how to start with a goods steam locomotive on an incline. How do you have to set the direction changer to how much % if we e.g. 0.8% gradient and I want to start
@@dallasmann7904 Thanks! Not sure why the automatic fireman isn’t on by default they imply all you should be focusing on is driving and steam conservation
@@Stoker58 ya I know, no clue why. I figured out that opening the firebox, using the blower and setting the dampers which are on the floor front right side of the cab, you'll get those HUD icons working
The explanation of the steam pressure and steam chest pressure is very poor partly because it doesn't properly label the four instruments on the left of the interface. Anyone understand what they are?
I was struggling in a scenario where you have to haul a broken down locomotive with passenger carriages... my locomotive started slowing down and couldn't understand why
What do you do if your locomotive will not move, mine is slipping at the Ditton Junction. I’ve tried to restart the game thinking that it might be a glitch. But nothing is working.
They'll make a lot of customers angry if they discount it in a summer sale, so I doubt that they will. Generally they don't give significant discounts for about 18 months, and then the sales triggered by Steams summer and winter sale give the highest discounts.
My train literally won't go forward - i have done everything i can think of to get it moving but it will either get to 0.2 mph and then drop to 0 again - or it will wheel slip
@@MrJimheeren who are you to tell me what to buy I don't like steam trains but I like the route with other trains available I'd buy it you sound like a yes man
Yes - Tools - Scenario Planner - Select the stations you want to use and the loco and carriages/waggons and away you go. It's a sandbox mode for you to populate the route how you like. If you're trying to run foreign locos, which may be too wide/high, or electric locos, select Off The Rails mode which allows you to run anything, anywhere.
It'll be the same as the other gameplay videos they've done? Only difference as explained in the 8f video is there will be less variety of Rolling Stock on older consoles because they can't handle it. the latest consoles will be the same full version as PC

Flying Scotsman is now in the game and so is the 4f as for American engines no go no we don’t need them we need some narrow gauge railways
And i want german steam trains
@@TotallyNotMyReason I agree
Can’t wait for this, about time for a proper steam train experience in a train simulator
Its still not even a proper experience as Dovetail has the LMS Jubilee's sound sorely incorrect.
Great guide, this helped me overcome the Worst of all Winters scenario by teaching me how to climb gradients.
Great expansion to Train Sim World 2! Managing your "steam budget" brings a whole new experience to climbing hills.
So far, so good.
Are we getting excited yet . One day to go.
Not gonna lie.. I keep checking the store to see if its out early lol 😆
@@Dandemonium patience young grasshopper
Definitely
Glad i got a day of work tomorrow. So i can already download it when its out and do an "inaugural run"👌👌👌

He said both of those I think (7:00 and 7:49). Good tip though :)
I've learned that keeping it open 38% keeps the brake vacuum at 21.
That video is a lifesaver. The ingame tutorial didnt explain it well at all. I guess I got a better idea of it now :)
Amazing vid and a helpful guide! Would have never made it 2 feet without it lol.
This is some high quality tutorial content. Very happy to see.
Great Tutorial, the information is very clear and easy to understand!

Really good commentary Ell, explains how to use loco really well.♥️awesome creativity.
I've already seen someone in an early access video turn the large ejector ON & the small ejector off... Fantastic...
Amazing work guys 😁 really have came along way, this is very helpful 👍
What are the two indicators on the far left of the left-hand HUD for?
Could we get one such video on the steam-generating, so we can keep the pressure below safety release?
There is no manual firing (yet), so that is not possible.

My dad would've loved this!
Oh this is tremendous - thanks for doing this DTG
Good quick guide. looking forward to more. thanks for your efforts.
Thank you so much for this! I seriously needed the help with this !
Can you do a tutorial on how to get a heavy freight train going in wet conditions because I can’t seem to move the 8f in the wet
What you have to do is you have to go to all the red freight cars. And by the wheels find a lever called vacuum release and then put it to release. This will release the brakes on the red cars and then you’ll be able to get the train moving.
there is a sander leaver, have it set to front, and then slowly give it regulator power once the brakes have released
@@james-jn9ui i tied it but to no success
Do you inow how to do it too?
@@panzergranate3916 th-cam.com/video/Zfxyd5MsD5A/w-d-xo.html in this video u can see how it works. I hope it wil help.

How do I use more power on the steam because I only reach 35mph?
Struggling to get steam in steam chest to even to start to build up
for some reason fireman is set to manual with no explanation on how to do it. So go to your setting and turn fireman to automatic
@@dallasmann7904 sorted now found the dampers
@@TheGreyWolf0270 can you please explain this to me, I found the blower, can't find the damper, still can't get enough steam.

Does it have injectors putting water into the boiler ?
Adding water into the boiler will be up to the fireman. since it’s not added as of yet you won’t need to add water with the injectors. 🙂👍

nice guide
What does the steam heating requlation vaulve do?
Im on the game rn and don't know why I don't see it how did you got the steam loco?
10:25 Or you vould simply switch on the Front Sander 🤔

I can't get the 8F Moving in the 4th journey mode train... It seems too heavy (The one that starts at 0733) Even with the sander
HUD for the steam chest isn’t working on the 9F of console

Nice guide!
Thanks for the tips I am going to get it
Okay do I preorder or wait a week when it's in the sale?
It probably wont be on sale for a few months so up to you if you want this soon or want to wait awhile.

Generally they don't give significant discounts for about 18 months, and then the sales triggered by Steams summer and winter sale give the highest discounts.
Usually the new DLC's don't get a discount so if you want it soon you can buy it now already...
@@Daytona2 New DLCs on PS Store go to 27.99€ only for PlayStation Plus subscribers it happens when a new DLC comes out during big sales.
Buy it now, no preorder or release discount this time
Well we know which part Matt recorded.
Anyone have any idea what time it will be released on PS5 in the UK?
Do Irish Rail next
Can anyone tell me what the dampers are for?
what time does it release on PS5
Live now!
Good guide
What time is it being released
Live now on consoles, PC should be mid- to late-afternoon UK time.
I hope they add American steam trains soon
Will this come to Xbox series s in the us?
It's coming to xbox and PlayStation. Can't see why there would be regional differences?
My train literally won't go forward - i have done everything i can think of to get it moving but it will either get to 0.2 mph and then drop to 0 again - or it will wheel slip
Can we use other trains on this route because I don't like steam trains
The jubilee and the 8f are the only trains on the route. It is called spirit of steam after all. But you can use scenario planner
then dont buy it

We need tank engines!
What's a levver? Do you mean lever?
The first thing I'm doing when I get paid is buying the second game and this dlc
When went to steam trains be out
A female fireman? Isn't that anachronistic?
Of all the things you could've commented, you decided the fireman being a woman was the main problem?
WHERE IS THE DLC ITS 10:00am lol
Should be live on consoles now, PC will be later this afternoon.
@@TrainSimWorld Don’t worry, al sorted, running the tutorial now :D

far too complicated. not for me
