Train Simulator 2016 - Route Learning: Kings Cross to Peterborough Nene C.S. (Class 365)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- In this next route learning video, we take a Class 365 and drive from Kings Cross to Peterborough on the ECML South add on. Along the way we will be calling at Biggleswade, St Neots, Huntingdon and Peterborough before then driving from Peterborough station to Peterborough Nene Carriage Sidings.
Apologies for putting 'Train Simulator 2015' in the image for this video, I completely forgot to write 2016 and I'm feeling too lazy to re-render the whole video for that minor error. Besides that, it's more a name change than anything else as nothing significant has changed between TS2015 and TS2016.

0:17 The trains are smilling lol
LOL
I travel from huntingdon everyday and it looks spot on..
i am impressed on how ACCURATE peterborough looks its got queensgate and everything
Mullac boy animations I no right that what I was thinking
When he stopped the train in the sidings, there were still on board the train! Btw you are my most favourite TH-camr. Great vid
Pro trick : you can watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Seth Boden Definitely, been using flixzone} for since december myself :)
@Seth Boden Yea, have been using flixzone} for since november myself :)
This is NOT a Flixzone video
My favourite route learning video out of the ones that you have made !
Thanks! Glad you like this video :)
this is very realistic to real life developers have done a great job, I should know I use the east coast main line to get into london
The sidings used to be named the 'wharf' after the wharf that used to be there before it became the carriage sidings. The speed limit is actually 5mph throughout the whole of the sidings and you put the unit on 10 road! :-)
Huntingdon is my current local station as living in the area at the moment! Originally from Romford and going to be moving back but it's always awesome seeing a local station in a game!
+Dean McFarlane I've been to Huntingdon once, and it was great to see the trains flying through on the fast line! :)
PTGRail Yeah they do rattle your brains a bit but it's cool. My sister lives in St Neots, about 10 minutes away from the station so you can hear them passing her house lol
Dean McFarlane I'd love to live next to a railway like that, I think it would be awesome! I'd feel right at home XD
PTGRail I've lived close to a railway and as a kid I loved it. I remember one night waking my parents because I saw an engineering train and freaked out and didn't know what it was. Now, that's my job! Ha ha.
***** I travel past there quite frequently!
Great video there mate. I really enjoyed it. As you said you are going to do the WCML over Shap line. There is a scenario I have made using the Class 170 from Carlisle to Dumfries in the Steam Workshop if you wanted to try it out. I have used the Alstom Pendolino reskin for AI traffic so if you cannot find that reskin, feel free to edit it out with TS Tools. I have made it more for fun than realism but its all present day trains within limitations anyway.
Kind Regards
Ash.
+BritishRail60062 Thanks, I will happily take a look at your scenario :)
+PTGRail No problem. If you wanted to try any of my "non-standard" scenarios that I make as well as the workshop ones. My website is myworldoftransportandsimulations.weebly.com/ where my custom scenarios can be downloaded from.
Kind Regards
Ash.
Is it just me that sees a smiley face on the front of a 365
This is why the 365's nickname is Happy Train
Hi PTGRail could you maybe do a route learning on the UKTS chiltern or wcml line
Might get a PC just for this.
Haha, you're liking this game then I guess? :p
Very much so :)
was on that route on my birthday (2nd of September..) For Peterborough to Kings Cross I was in a slow train, stopping at sandy, huttington and stuff like that.. From Kings Cross to Peterborough I was in a Fast Train, so basically that EXACT route!
Looked BEAUTIFUL!
Your videos are excellent! How long does it take to learn a route that well? Do you make notes or memorise everything? Do you start with QD, included scenarios or create a Free Roam?
Thanks!
+Rafał Czarnocki (skinnyraf) thank you! :) it depends on the route and how familiar with it I am in real life, as well as the number of stops and speed changes on the journey. It can take anything from 2 to 12 hours of practice. Even then, I still make mistakes at times and re record sections of video. I start with a scenario I like or create my own :)
This is a great route.
*clap clap* round of applause for a great video
+HyperVenomProduction Haha, thank you! :)
+PTGRail Have you done the GWML Oxford to London?
Hey PTGRail I just got the AP Class 43 MTU sound pack and it sounds amazing! Also great video :)
+Class380Fan Awesome! Glad you're liking it. And thanks :)
ahh ABB York. I live very near the carriage works and remember it closing down. I was only 7/8 at the time.
+Katy Colbert When did it close? :)
+PTGRail I had to google this to double check facts. It closed as ABB in 1996. It repoened from 1998-2002 by EWS for some carriage building agin before closing for good. A lot of the buildings are still there.
Katy Colbert Thanks for the info! :)
Have you considered doing any steam route learning videos on Riviera in the '50s? Your last steam video was quite enjoyable, and the Riviera line is quite an interesting run!
Fletton Junction has been 70 mph for a couple of years to allow faster crossovers to the slow line approaching PBO
I'm so glad I'm not the only one with problems on this route regarding the stuttering causing dips in FPS. I thought it was my PC. I do like travelling on this route but its pretty awful in terms of optimisation. For me, the problem is tile loading in front of me. Getting out of Kings Cross and Finsbury are the worst hit areas for performance.
+Nunsweepit421 Indeed, performance issues vary depending on the route. Some run very well and others not so much. Unfortunately this is one of the worse routes for lag!
Nunsweepit421 if you have the albula line with the enhancement pack 01. DO NOT create your own free roam and fill every siding with stock (like I did) or you will get lag
Glad to have you back! Man this route is stunning with clean frame rate. I can't wait to see other routes with smooth views. I noticed at King's Cross that the 365 was rolling backwards towards the buffers, and I'm assuming you had the brakes on. I found that the 395 also does this when stopped at some stations with full service applied.
+Joel Stevens Thanks! :) I'm glad to be back too. This route is great now, but it was terrible before. I tried recording this very scenario about six months ago and gave up because the performance was so bad! Indeed, you are describing a bug which has been there since the Rail Simulator days. Most trains roll back even with the brakes on full, and sometimes it's easier to notice than others. The Class 395 is one of the worst cases of the rollback bug lol.
+PTGRail I can relate with performance issues on this route. There's a few scenarios where it rains and I just can't bare to sit through massive lag. It is great to see this route in near maxed out settings.
Are we going to ignore the fact that at London kings cross the train was creeping towards the buffers
Put speed on 2x for some fun
@@jackphilpott lots of trains do that in TS. It’s been a bug since the days of Railworks! 😂
Lol must have been because of a downhill gradient
These EMU's don't half accelerate! Lovely video buddy!
+William Houston Agreed! I remember when I first travelled on one being surprised at how good the acceleration was. Thank you :)
+PTGRail my local line was only electrified in 2014. Before 2014 I had only travelled on 1 electric train. It was a class 390 back in 2012 :) now on my local line we have class 318's, 320's and 334's as our EMU's and class 170's, 158's and 156's as our DMU's. We dont get many other passenger trains apart from that. We do get a lot of freight though :)
William Houston are u from Scotland?
Excellent as always. Just a shame the reality is spoilt at the end as there were passengers sat on the trains in the sidings!
+baseballfan99 Thank you. Indeed, I think the feature to remove passengers from the trains came out after this scenario was made.
I don't know why to stop at stations you go on slow,and after leaving you join fast. I know that some stations have platform on slow only,but in St Neots you could stop on fast
Ar around the 16-17 minute mark you mention that you will be doing a video of the GER Liverpool Street to Shenfield route using the Class 315s, that will be great.. As of June 2015 the Metro route as it was called or the slow service, was taken over by TFL Crossrail. Whilst the 315s are still in service, in 2017 they will all be replaced by new trains, class still to be announced, to operate on the Liverpool Street to Shenfield service until the construction under London is complete when they will run all the way to Heathrow and Reading. Abellio Greater Anglia will still operating it's other services to Southend, Ipswich, Norwich and Harwich on the parallel track to Shenfield. Look forward to seeing you do those various routes as well as the other services out of Liverpool Street to Cambridge, Stansted Airport and the other destinations.
+Terry Love Is Stansted Airport and Cambridge simulated on here now?
+Josh Fowler Unfortunately not.
+Terry Love Awesome. Yes, I was on the GEML earlier this year and remember seeing Class 315s had been repainted into TfL livery. I guess this means the end of the 315s?
PTGRail that is a shame. Would be amazing if it was. Absolutely love this video, just like the rest
Do he's realize the train is slowly moving backward
Nice video PTG!! i was making a scenario on this line using 387 but the pantographs of AI 387s did not rise but the train was rolling fine. Also i made sure i used pantohigh cars in the scenario editor...but nothing happened. Can u help?
Great video! Very engaging. May I ask when you are roughly planning to do the livestream? Really exited about it :)
Im confused as to why they made the traction motors audible when braking on pre-2008 stock class 465/6's but the traction motor is audible on the more recent 365? Bit confused.
Drove that 😉
Any more videos of uk train route learning as I'm liking your videos your uploading
+TheKizzywhizzy thank you. There's quite a few videos already on this channel, and there's plenty more to come :)
hi PTG I love ure vids can u posably make a leeds to chesterfeild scenario as I travel on at every fortnight
also can u do it in a 156 northen service?
+eddie stobartfan23 Unfortunately not as that route isn't currently available in Train Simulator.
oh ok and i am a big fan off u
Did anyone else notice the fact that the train was moving when we saw the outside shots at KGX
+thatrandomboy123 HD It was indeed. This is a bug within Train Simulator that certain trains roll very slowly even with the brakes on full. It dates back to the days of Rail Simulator back in 2007.
Hi there mate. Great videos you been doing. I enjoys watching them. You say, you get the scenarios off of 'Armstrong Powerhouse'....... Quick question, how do you install them into the game? as, I play TS16 on Steam.Thanks. :)
+chris greening Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoy these videos! :) Simply purchase and download the pack from the Armstrong Powerhouse website and the download will come with a simple installer which installs the pack into the game for you :)
Ok watch very closely at the train it’s moving slightly at the start
you managed to move the train into nene sidings with the doors open (look at door release buttons and no interlock light
also a main aspect signal does not take you into sidings its 2 white lights called a subsidary signal usually with a C indicator
also the whole journey you had no line light IE no electricity through the pantograph, must of been a bloody strong tail wind
+david birch That's down to the creator of the DLC, not me. Unfortunately, in Train Simulator not all DLCs are created equal, with some being very basic and others being quite sophisticated. Many have some inaccuracies or bugs.
Would it be possible to do a video on this route with the Class 91? The previous Class 91 video was quite dark, and, although that was the intention, I haven't seen any more Class 91s on the PTG channel, which is quite sad. Well done, though.
+Tristan Lee I plan to make another video in a Class 91 on the ECML, but it will be either the York to Newcastle section or the Newcastle to Edinburgh section. It's funny you should say that, as the Class 91 is my personal favourite loco. I will rectify the situation soon :)
I must admit, it is just above the 444, but not by much. It has been a love of mine for a while.
This is what a 465 would sound like if it went beyond 75mph, since the 365 doeseht actually sound like this.
anyone notice at London Kings Cross, that the 365 was moving backwards?
I can't tell is the graphic of the game got bad pixel or my computer graphic. But i luv the video. +PTGRail
a fantastic video first class
Nice vid 👍 next time tho use the Great Northern livery if you have it because they’re the ones that operate this line. Well done tho 👍
I am brand new to train Simulation. I have Trainz Driver 2016 which includes the ECML Edinburgh to Kings Cross, but this simulation seems a better (more life, moving people, more trains) so the point is do you have to purchase each route separately or can you build on the existing game? I am going now to purchase Train Simulator 2016 and follow along on this video which was awesome by the way. Thanks for any relevant information that maybe forthcoming. Oh would you recommend the Steam Edition or the Standard?
+:Clive-Albert :Dodd Having played Trainz myself, I always struggled to get into it. I think the Train Simulator series is the best train simulation currently available on PC, though it does have its flaws at times. When you buy the base game, you get several routes and trains. It does include editor tools to make your own content, but I must say the editor tools in Trainz are easier to use. From there, you can then customise your experience by purchasing new routes and trains. I would also recommend getting the Steam edition simply as it has slightly more content than the standard edition.
PTGRail Okay I have as I said purchased both sims as they are not that expensive. With my limited experience of them to me it does seem Train Simulator by Dovetail Games (Steam Edition) is much better. I have been following your video's in which you do a great job which really gives me a high bar to reach. Do I understand that I can buy 3rd Party routes not just routes through Steam and install them? or do I have to buy and install through Steam which I do not really understand in much the same way as Trains!
Questions, questions, questions, sorry not to worry if you have not got the time to answer I understand me being a bit lazy and being old in the tooth (72) harder to grasps new things but I need a good distraction and this seems to fit the bill at the moment. Thanks and regards.
:Clive-Albert :Dodd Great! I hope that you enjoy playing Train Simulator. You can indeed purchase 3rd party routes and trains from outside of Steam and install them. Just Trains and Armstrong Powerhouse are two of the larger 3rd party content providers. That being said, the majority of trains and routes are on Steam so will need to be purchased there. :)
PTGRail
Okay thanks I thought that would be the case. I am trying to find out where and by the look of it goes to Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/RailWorks so having found that I have just made a desktop shortcut to the manuals lol. Thanks for the info now going to watch your video Route Learning: Kings Cross to Peterborough Nene C.S. (Class 365). Ta very much.
How do you have modern trains and liveries? I only have FCC and the half done ECML livery on the HST's. And no other trains.
could you see if you could do a Euro Tunnel video? arguably it would be pretty boring since its just a massive tunnel but at the same time it would be quite cool to see how fast you could do it in (Speed Run)
+Ruben Stitson I will certainly do so if that route is ever made. Unfortunately it's not presently available for Train Simulator.
how did you make this scenario because you can’t switch junctions in quick drive
I live in St Neots
Where is the class 43 grand central reskin from please
Armstrong Powerhouse; it comes with the scenario pack that this scenario came with.
I like this route, but the train schedules for the scenarios that come with it seem to be too tight - for most of the career platform stops, I have to floor the accelerator to get to the stations in time :/
This is why I don't drive in career mode - I always find it encourages bad, unrealistic driving.
i have this game, for some reason, it takes 40 real minutes for the train to get from Huntingdon-Peterborough... it should only take about 15 real minutes. I was travelling on the down slow (so 80mph half way then joining the fast line 100mph). But why does it take 40 minutes real time, 14 minutes train simulator time?
Have you ever thought about the WCML London to the Midlands?
+Bogeyboytastic yayeh I would love to cover that journey but it's not currently available in Train Simulator.
Ukts. Not too sure how realistic it is though
peterborough has 7 platforms now
and 43s 91s 82s 90s 170s 158s 66s 180s and 67s
also the 3hourly 153
even the 325 mail train and soon the 801s
Does this service operate in real life? The only two Great Northern Peterborough services I know are the stopping service(Finsbury Park, Potters Bar, Hatfield, Welwyn Garden City, Welwyn North, Knebworth, Stevenage, Hitchin, Arlesey, Biggleswade, Sandy, St Neots, Huntingdon and Peterborough) and the fast service(Finsbury Park, Stevenage, Hitchin, Biggleswade, St Neots, Huntingdon and Peterborough).
+Golden Boat910 I don't know if it still runs now, but it certainly could have run in the past. The scenario that I used came from a 2-year old scenario pack.
+PTGRail It does still run, and the video is awesome btw - is this from an actual game ?
Of course it's from an actual game, idiot!
+Golden Boat910 Well thanks but I thought it might be a simulator just for new drivers. Re: idiot comment - a quick check of the timetables would have answered your question
1. Great video
2. Why are you always in the cab whilst doing the journeys?
3. Why do you have the HUD off?
+The Solent Alliance Association
1. Thanks!
2. Because it's more realistic, and the answer to this also links in to your third question. Driving without the HUD is much more realistic and involved. Real train drivers have to learn their routes so they know what is coming up. They don't have the HUD to rely on. I've tried to reproduce this in these videos, and the purpose of these videos is to help those who are interested to drive in the game without the HUD. As there is no HUD, I have to stay inside the cab to keep an eye on the speed, listen out for safety system alarms and keep an eye on the track ahead of me so I know where I am at all times :)
Ok
How do you improve the frame rate on this route? I have this route and the frame rate is utterly crap! the worst on train sim!
+Tom Wright I agree that the frame rate on this route can be terrible. On my old PC, I couldn't make this video because it ran badly. Once I upgraded my PC I was then able to record this video.
And class 170? And where is the class 170 greater anglia reskin from?
+Tim O'Grady I'm assuming it came with the free stock pack for this scenario pack on the Armstrong Powerhouse website :)
+PTGRail i've downloaded from Armstrong powerhouse twice and both times ive found it VERY Difficult it the most recent train i got was the class 321 and i find it Really hard to get it to move.
Hi I don't wait till train passed speed board as I am a train test driver I apply power immediately speed board is seen
Isn't Thameslink now Great Northern?
+Sir Peepsalot FCC on the Thameslink route is now just called Thameslink, whereas FCC on the ECML is now Great Northern if I remember rightly. They are still all operated by the same company anyway. In fact, the company which operates Thameslink and Great Northern also operate Southern, Southeastern and London Midland.
Nice video. BTW...my system specifications r a 32 bit windows 7 home basic with 4 gb ram and NVIDIA gtx 660 Ti graphics card. Do you think the route'll work on my PC?
+Shivang Yadav Thank you. I think the route may run, but I also think you may have performance issues in places on it as it's quite demanding.
+PTGRail for example...places near london kings cross?
+PTGRail i tried hambuerg-hanover and it was a disaster so warn me if its anything like that
+PTGRail, can you make a route learning guide from London Paddington to Oxford on a class 43 in GWML?
+Nandha Kumar I will be covering that route in the future, but it will be a while :)
thanks.
What does one need to have to get a sound pack or scenario pack from Armstrong?
+Josef Walls Simply head over to their website and purchase a sound or scenario pack from them. Any DLC requirements will be listed on the product page :)
Nice video Pete :-D
+William Mankelow Thanks Will :)
+PTGRail Thanks for this :)
+PTGRail And at 1:49 have you noticed the train is slightly moving is it King's Cross Up Slow or somehting?
+TrainsHunter WCML Yes that's an unfortunate bug in the game where trains roll back very slowly even with the brakes on full on level gradients lol XD
Nice vidieo
Can you reommend a track and train for a beginner? And should I do, career, or other modes? i seem to fail them all time, says you failed to pick people up. Getting frustrated.
Para Plays I recommend getting the Chatham Main Line, as it was a good route for me to use when I began to play TS. I also recommend playing Quick Drive before you do Career so you can get used to driving a train.
Para Plays The Chatham Mainline route comes with both the dark blue Southeastern 375 and the Southeastern 465, which are both fairly simple trains to drive.
Worst capital disconnect
how do you know when to slow down at the next station? And also how to did you remove that annoying wind sound? I't annoys so many players!
You need to mute the game itself :) and he slows down with guessing, when you're about a mile away you may wanna start slowing down slowly, and then when you get to 0.20 miles away you need to go slower until whole train is available to board, kinda confusing but that's what I'm guessing by watching these..
I'm not guessing, I've learned the route and the landmarks so I know where to brake - much like real drivers would do :)
Does train sim. 2016 have the First Capital Connect/Great Northern stopping service from Cambridge to Kings Cross? If so, is it possible to make a video of that?
Unfortunately the route between Cambridge and Hitchen hasn't been modelled in Train Simulator.
Oh, well thanks anyway!

Good vid ptg by the way what is your favorite UK passenger train?
+Jordan Cheetham Thanks! My favourite UK passenger train is a Class 91 and Mk4 set :)
Can you do the Welwyn Garden City to Moorgate
+Chinedu Chinedu Unfortunately that section isn't currently available in Train Simulator.
I keep getting one side dark and one side normal help
Is it just me or do you sit higher in the cab than usual?
To add to my previous comment: The default sounds also include a two tone horn that is controlled with space+b.
+Highspeedline01 I sit further back with my FOV settings, and yes in this cab it does seem slightly higher than usual. I didn't realise the default sounds have the two tone horn as I rarely use default sounds lol XD
PTGrail do Glasgow Queen Street to Edinburgh Waverley
+Liam Macgregor It's already done and up on this channel :)
Nice Video once again Pete what are your pc specs?
+Class170Rocks Thanks! I'm now using an Intel Core i7 4790k 4ghz processor with 16gb Kingston Hyper-X DDR3 1866mhz RAM and an Asus Strix Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 4gb graphics card. :)
PTGRail Thanks Alot !
I love the east coast main line!
could you possibly make a return journey from peterborough to kings cross being a semi fast for another video with a better variety of ai to the ap one, i was also working on a stopper from hitchin to kings cross but i dont know when im going to be able to work on that again since my pc broke but il get there one day :)
+Kirkinstein I will see what I can do. I've got a stopping service more in mind for the return journey in a Class 321 :)
PTGRail have you also seen the moorgate extension for the route aswell, maybe when the 313 comes out you could possibly do a moorgate service which would be cool!
keep up the good work pete!
+Kirkinstein I haven't.. but I would love to do the Moorgate to WGC run in a 313. And thanks! :)
PTGRail you should check the extension out, you dont need any other routes except from the ecmls
I shall check it out one day soon when I have the time :)
how did you get train simulator 2016
On Steam
How do you change the destination on the class 365, class 158, class 153 and class 220/221?
+Tim O'Grady It varies from train to train, but with most trains you have to do it in the scenario editor. The best thing to do is look in the respective manuals :)
+PTGRail How I ment from the scenarios you have created? :)
Tim O'Grady with the 220/221 when you are in drive mode you do ctr+F12 I think and to go back the other way it is ctr+Lshift+F12 I think
Never mind I figured it out anyway but thanks though.
+PTGRail can you use the dna you don't need to do it :) P.S. I like your videos and your voice
Dra*
+the channel that has no name What do you mean? And thank you, I really appreciate it! :)
+PTGRail well I just started watching and the first video I watched you didn't use it but seems that you do use it now (I watched you London to Kent house one in the class 465
the channel that has no name I often forget to use the DRA. I really should remember to use it more lol XD
@PTGRail Would you maybe drive the Class 170 on West coast mainline north? I am just asking
+This is The Nerd I'm not sure if the Class 170 would suit that route? :)
+PTGRail what about doing a first transpennine class 170 from manchester to liverpool? I believe there is ftpe class 170 skin ukts
There is such a skin and it is something that I will consider doing :)
+PTGRail ok thanks
i am just happy if it is something with the Class 170... I LOVE THE CLASS 170!!!
is that the hole route
Pls do a class 360 london to ipswich
+Raymond DeLaGhetto I'll see what I can do :)
38:20 I used to live in Sandy.
prettygood
+parfait makinou thanks :)
If you don't mind me asking what is the Woodhead line
The Woodhead line was an old route in the north of England between Manchester and Sheffield, large parts of which are now closed.

can you do a Amtrak surflinner cabcar
+trolleyman475 I will see what I can do :)
can you do an es44ac on soldier summit
+Marcus Garbutt I will see what I can do :)
cheers
How can i get the grand central HST
+OMGtrains It came with the free stock pack for this scenario pack from AP :)
any non commentary videos?
I have a few early videos without commentary, but they focused on railway operations rather than cab rides.
PTGRail Ok right love the realistic sound on this but trying to find one without commentary
Rushaune mclennon just mute the volume
Oliver Kirkby and why would I mute it when I said I liked the realistic sounds?
I Live in new Barnet!! 😀😙😙
