![[TSW2] Train Sim World just got steam locos... do they suck?](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uSjCO1FDl2Q/mqdefault.jpg)
Hello everyone, with the release of Rush Hour DLC Maps there were some changes to game mechanics, if anyone doubts if those settings are still working you can check out my livestream that I did shortly after Dresden - Riesa route came out to see if those settings still works. I have re-done this mission and managed to complete it in this video: th-cam.com/video/UZUb3Es584o/w-d-xo.html
Seeing this video just makes me so mad about how the game explains almost none of the setup. I did the setup the way the game told me to and I couldn't get my train moving at all. Thank you for this
Agreed. Even the keybinds are very difficult
Took me forever to get the train moving.
Only thing that impresses me is that it looks better the. Train simulator 2014 which I can’t run at all now
whomever made this scenario can actually go fuck themselves.. but yea.. my train still wont move but tnx for the tutorial I guess.. I wonder if all locos need banking com on
I'm here because the developers couldn't properly explain how to play their own game. Really blown away that they can model all these realistic (I assume) details that play a crucial role in being able to complete the scenario but then get said details completely wrong. I watched your playthrough while doing it myself. Super helpful man - thank you!
Rode along with you the whole trip. Thanks for the tips! Would probably still be in the yard if it wasn’t for you. 😆
I'm glad you found time and patience to watch the whole video. Happy you found it helpful :)
Man now I really wish I had this game since the CSX is one of my favourite train brands and I have been watching vids on TH-cam my whole life of these amazing train games lol but good job on your progress man
I did the same and it was actually rather cool having a "partner" along for the trip. I really enjoyed the companionship.
A couple tips for those trying to finish this scenario: 1) Make sure to set the train up exactly as Fluffy has shown. 2) If you have a red signal, back off the speed to around 10 mph until the signal changes to yellow. If you get within 1000 yds of the signal and it is still red, drop your speed to 5 mph. If you get within 200 yds, drop your speed to as close to 1 mph as you can and hold it. This way you will never have to actually come to a stop and go through the effort of getting the train moving again.
Also, you can gauge how fast the train front of you based on how long it is taking to clear the signals. I found it averages around 10-15 mph. You can set that speed when you're concerned about the train in front clearing the block in time.
Thanks for the tip
Yeah u right...Dude if you stop right ahead of the signal Its very struggle to move the train again..
how can you hold the speed, it seems it always increases or decreases
@@RidiPwn adjust the power as needed
@@skylarkeighley2369 thanks
Thank you for this help i agree they game did a terrible job at explaining how to use all of the engines together
Agreed. I followed the steps in the scenario, and went exactly nowhere. It's a good thing I got the game for free, because this would have royally pissed me off otherwise.
@@emptyjay488 I found it best to focus on one at at a time as they are all different
I thought It was just me, but what a relief!, yeah the game doesn't explain anything
BRO!!! This video saved my TSW2 experience. I was ready to give up because of this route. The game really sets you up for failure. Your video taught me how to set up the trains Correctly and I could tell a difference from the start. I've failed on this route about 4 times and that's a long time to make it halfway up a mountain and can't figure out why. Thank you so much Admiral!!
Glad I could help!
I have the same problem, what did you do to finally get up the mountain?
Dovetail should introduce yourself as the game tutorial.. wonderful explanation of the whole set up. Keep up the good work 👍
Thank you for the well-done and comprehensive guide on how to set up those locos! I am SO glad I looked up this mission before I started it.
Just getting into train simming with TSW2. You helped a beginner out today!
Thank you 😊 I’m glad this video was helpful :)
Same for me. I am playing this game for quite a while. Still I failed by hitting the second red signal after one hour. Couldn't stop the train. Will try again another day now that I somewhat know how to setup the locos. Man what a fail be DTG. It almost made me not play the game anymore. I have most of the DLCs but still such a scenario has to be tested.
This was a fun watch. Thanks for making it, and for thoroughly explaining how to run two tandems in a single consist
Thank you so much for this. I finally completed this mission. Setting up those Locomotives properly is what makes it work. The radio is key.
You're very welcome!
Thank you so much for this, I was struggling so much and this got me to the end. Wonderful work!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the tips on setting up the locomotives!
Woah! Thanks for explaining this in details. I've been setting up the trains wrongly. I set up all 4 locomotives on active and ram the engine on 8 for the other 3.
Glad it helped!
At a point when 6.8 kms were left, my wheels always started spinning, even when I used sand. I will finally be able to finish it now, thanks a lot.
Thank you so much! I just picked up this game and probably tried this half a dozen times before looking for help and I found this. With the game's settings, I maybe got 2/3 of the way before I got stuck, but after going along with your plan I got it first try! Before I maybe topped out at 11 mph, but this time it went almost exactly like you showed. I was overall a few minutes behind you, so I actually only had to come to a full stop once; at what was your last stop, but was able to get going again without much hassle. Again, thank you, I was getting very frustrated with this game after getting to this scenario.
Glad it helped you :)
If this video hasn’t existed I’d probably have given Sand Patch Grade up, given all the rigamarole with the train going nowhere on full power, so thank you!
I actually ran this video simultaneously alongside my own run and so I enjoyed the scenario even more.
Thanks again!
Man I would have had no idea what to do, thanks for all of the tips!!! Thanks so much!!
Thank you so much for this. After three failed attempts over close to five hours using the [wrong] settings prompted by dovetail, I finally completed this.
The info about the comms resetting the cutoff in the comments was really helpful too.
I used my camera to go back and redo those settings, but the game seems to crash when jumping between first person view in the lead cab and the rear of the train. Happened twice before resigning myself to bring the camera back to the front. This was on the console version.ive got to explore if there's any easy of going to front or back in free cam mode. Yet another thing not explained on the game.
Anyways, thanks again.
I’m very thankful for this video. Before I came across this, I would always get stalled about a mile in. I would always get frustrated with that. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Totally got stuck on the mountain. Couldn’t have done it without you thank you so much!🤙🏼
Glad I could help!
Thank you very much for explaining to set up trains otherwise I tried 6 times and no power I was very disappointed but thanks god I found your video .
I’m glad you found it helpful :)
I couldn’t get past the last 14miles I kept getting slippage on the wheels no matter what I tried I would roll right back down the mountain. Especially when it started 1.5% incline. Yeah you definitely saved me a whole lot of frustration because I was ready to throw out my system with game included!! Lol 😂
Thank you for your help on this, I struggled for a week before I gave up. Then I came across this video to get me passed the last 2 miles.
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much.. I have been struggling 1 week to get this 4200 tons climb but it still only
Great to hear!
Thank you so much for the video! You’ve helped me get a bit further in the game 😃
Glad to hear it!
I have TDAH, so I was thinking that I missed some explanation in gane cause, I found this scenario and went play without play entire missions. Thanks a lot, I did not fell too challenge with your help, i can start up the train in 1.6% degree climb! So powerfull that four GP!
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much for teaching me about setting up this scenario. The game doesn't go into the details of the MU valve or making sure the bank switch is on.
Glad it helped!
Amazing. First trip through I was using 8 engine speed and when a train passed on my left it shook the tracks and I lost grip. That run was lost cause I force quit and didnt save.
I am half way through following your guide and I thought I'd leave a comment. Thank you for your guidance. I didn't know about the BP before watching this and was constantly getting wheel slips, at the junction just before 1:21:30 I was able to replicate your actions using the sand. I also wasn't to sure on the differences between the independent and automatic however after watching this I have a good understanding of the two. Attempting this journey alone before I was doing okay reaching 30mph but as soon as I hit the mountains the speedo was saying 300mph going backwards, that was because I hadn't set the tandems up correctly. Thanks again
The guide part of this video is about 10 minutes long xD The rest is just a pure gameplay with me talking :P
@@FluffyAdmiral Well you say that but stuff like the using of sand was useful to me. However you say we must turn on the radio as we will find out later in which part did you use it or what happens if you don't turn it on?
@@iLukey96 Yeah, because the radio in second tandem is needed to operate it remotely from first tandem. I think I explained that in 15th or 16th minute of the video. Also, my bad the guide might be about 20 minutes long :P As for me using the sand... Later on you'll find out that the game is not simulating things right or things are set differently for this scenario and sand is basically not needed at all ;)
If you want your brake pipe to charge faster, leave Reverser in Neutral and feed in 1 notch of throttle. Gets that Air compressor working a bit faster.
Edit: Another Tip - That distant Red signal at 56:00 in the video. You know there's a train in front of you. That heavy of a train you're operating at 1.8 miles out doing over 35mph, drop the throttle to 0 and get your speed down to about 5-10 mph. Just need a small set on the Automatic. This will keep you from needing to start from a dead stop. Don't accelerate back to track speed if the Red changes to Yellow until you have passed the signal so you get the next distant signal. When you're that heavy and climbing a steep grade, stopping is the last thing you want to do. Just let it crawl.
I struggled moving my train with the recommended settings the game was giving. Such a waste of time! Then I found your channel. Thanks!
I'm not sure how far this helps others, but I got all the signals go Yellow/Green when I did not hold 'Shift' key to run, just walk up to the front end of the train, that will cover and give enough time for the 1st train to pass.
Unfortunately, I was already into the climb when I found your video, so I am running about 9.5 - 10 mph all the way sitting at 12:33 in game and still havve 3.6 miles to go :(
I admire your patience. Hope the next trip will be much easier.
Greeting from Malaysia, finally, I know what is the sand on and off for after watching your video. Thank you very much for this video.
I know this video is about 10 months old - but THANK YOU!
I came here after failing this mission at around the 2 hour mark, which is pretty soul-crushing. And as you explained, the only reason I failed it is because the instructions as supplied were incorrect and incomplete. In the first place, I couldn't even get the consist moving from the yard. Had to go look it up and run back to the rear engines to set something, and then run forward again (and by the time I got there, the train was already rolling even from that 0.2% yard grade!) but was able to climb aboard.
Then at 2.2 miles out from the destination ... after crawling along at 10-11 mph max ... on a grade that was identical to what I was already on ... my train suddenly lost traction! Went into full wheel slip, then came to a halt, and then began rolling backwards! I was able to finally get it stopped - probably a lot of luck. Again - back to Google. Found another setting I didn't know about, and again, ran all the way back to the rear engines to flip one switch. And then started forward yet again ... about 1/4 of the way there, I noted that the train was rolling. Let's just say that on a 1.6% grade ... I failed to grab the train as it RUSHED by me.
I watched it longingly for a few moments as is disappeared down the track before finally just exiting the scenario.
Man this made me so sad. This is a just a shitty lazy effort by the Devs. They should do much better job explaining their fucking trains.
You’re sorta in my neck of the woods. Can drive to sand patch grade (CSX) or horseshoe curve (NS) within an hour. No traffic today on the CSX line, derailment in one of the towns
So yea, I was used rear locos wrong all the time, without this video my rear locos will keep do nothing, thank you sm!!!
thank you for making my train climb at 20mph. not under 10mph anymore
I'm glad I could help :)
The train stopped moving about 4 -5 miles out. I went to the trailing engines and set it up like you showed and was able to make it.
I'm glad to hear that. Congratulations!
In which minute of the video does he demonstrate this configuration of the rear engines?
@@dreamgarage68 It has been too long since I did this mission. I would have to go through the video to see. Maybe Fluffy remembers.
I got stuck my first round and couldn't move at notch 8 but this video helped me finish my second round and made it less boring hearing your commentation
I couldn’t have done the Fully Fuelled scenario with out your video. Thanks I will be following your channel. Kevin
Thx for video i watched it 2nd times. 1st cos i played this mission on PS4 and 2nd time on PS5. I have one more tip. When you couple the cars then you can request for geen light, that means you will be first on that long road. You will never need stop the train.
omg, ty. Been struggling for 2 days getting the tail engines working correctly
great walkthrough! I Couldn't have done it without you!
Absolute Savior video. Wasted enough of my limited lifetime trying to beat this scenario. Hadn't been for this video, would have given up. Thanks ! P.S. also got gold !!
oh gosh thank you for explaining the setup, I've been fighting to get the train moving at throttle 4 when the first red signal clears for a hour ;_;
Glad it helped :)
If you do the set up quickly, and drive around 19 km/h at the first part you get to the switch quicker than the other train so you dont have to stop at all :)
Wow 😳
Thank you so much for this!!
The game should explain the propper settings for this ride as you do!
Thank you again!!
Thank you sir. Video and your help was a difference maker for me. Thanks
Thank you spo much🎉 i was disappointed because I could not move my train and now everything is easy and just a right amount of challenge!
Thank you for complete tutorials, finally i finished this scenario after 5 times failure...
I'm glad I could help :)
Dovetail treating us as a professional train conducters the gave us the game expecting us to know everything about trains and how they work, i've never seen before a useless tutorial like dovetail's tutorials and they should be ashamed about it.
Anyway thanks for this guide, fluffy
No problem :)
Thank you. I couldn't figure out why I was doing 10mph up the hill, then it dawned on me that the rear two engines were being dragged like dead weight. Sure enough, followed your video, NOW it moves
Also, thank god I saved when I did.... I did the same thing as you did @ 59:45 EXCEPT I slid right past the damn signal -,-
Glad you found this video useful :)
@@FluffyAdmiral I... I think my rear engines had a stroke. I loaded back in this evening and the rear two went to max power and wouldn't respond to control from engine 1 lol
@@SlyWolf5 Try to restart banking COMM.
Extremely helpful thank you
Thank you very much. It Would have Been impossible without your Tipps
Glad I could help!
First time i got stuck and it took forever. I did my research of setting up locomotives with lead'dead and so on. Then it was quite easy. Can't fail if locomotives are set up correctly
You helped a lot, thanks!
I’m pretty new to this game and that I’m doing this my biggest complaint is that the game doesn’t fully prepare you for things like this. Don’t give me wrong I think this is an excellent game but you’re not given all the information that you need to be more successful. I’d much rather be told what I need to know and fail then not being told at all. Thank God you made a very detailed video that explains it all so that going forward if I have to run a scenario with multiple cars and multiple loco motives at least now I will know how to do it. And that’s no thanks to the game but that is all thanks to you
A million thnx to u Fluffy! I had zero chance at completing this scenario without ur help. I will post ur info on Xbox, if u don't mind, cause many in the Xbox community are having the same pblm. Once again thank you.
I'm really glad that you found this video helpful. My videos are free to watch and share as far as I remember ;)
Thank you so so much I got stuck and couldn’t get up the mountain,great Chanel and sub from me
I’m glad I could help 🙂
According to the scenario, normally the rear engines would normally be run separately, so imagine going up the grade with this train with only the 2 fronts sd40-2s
Yeah, but if you also follow the instructions they give you, you end up with the two trains with full brake applied.
@@Scootertuner420 So what I mean is: if the train doesn't have the helper engines, how long would it take to go up to mountain? Maybe more than 3 hours?
thanks for the tips. I have got stuck at those lights many times and still have not finished this quest. I keep quitting over frustration. I think it may help if I wait at those first lights with that train leading. Wait there for like 30-40 minutes after the light changes, so I get yellow or green lights the whole route.
update those settings were wrong in my game. Couldn't even get the lead locomotive to start the run. So I quit again just didn't want the walk back and forth to return settings... Maybe I will try tomorrow with that rear locomotive pushing at throttle 3 through the whole run
@@magnacarta7136 I think the developers changed sth. I only could move it by closing the cutout valve in the 3 train so the 2nd lead train. Try this. Btw you don't have to walk. Just use the camera with the numbers 3. You can move with the arrows and use everything. Then come back with 1 to your lead engine
@@ThorAxeTheThunder I just wish it wasn't so long. Yesterday tried putting the 2nd lead into level 3 throttle. Ran to catch the front train. Made it 2 miles from the finish and die...total crap. I want to finish but hard to commit to a 2 hour quest....
Thank you for this vid ! And for help with mu setup
Always happy to help!
Thank you for your help!!
Glad it helped!
The you for your simple way of moving the train to freight so the train can move your video is very useful and helpful Thank-You for showing and destructing what to do to get the train moving and everything else great and wonderful jb no if I can get the wind shields wipers to stop moving that will be great
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the video tutorial man!! Why the devs never teach us setting up 4 loco in the game?
I don't know why Devs never explained that in the tutorials, but that's one of the biggest complaints I got against this product. While I love many things about this game, tutorials are definitely one of the weakest points. They're too basic and Players never receive knowledge they need from those. Hopefully at some point they will improve on that field.
There is a lot of other stuff that is not explained in the tutorials, but this definetly is the worst part of it so far i saw. Need to read forum and watch videos like this one to know how to do it, great for content creators and nicely done in the video. But why not explained in game? .... oh i know, the fully fueled scenario tends to bug in the last 800yards and last signal stays perma red. They dont want anyone to get there.
i found helpful in the downhill sections was to use dynamic brake to help control the speed too when on the way to the stop at location marker where the drive motor is converted to a generator driven by the energy of the trains thus excersisng a retarding force
Hi Fluffy. I have followed all the settings for the leading & trailing locos front and rear but the brake pipe pressure isn't moving or reaching 88/89 PSI. What am I missing please? I really loved this very informative video. Better than any tutorial Dovetail provide. Many thanks
Check if you set MU valve correctly in every locomotive that should fix your issues I guess.
I appreciate the work done bro.✌
Ok. So im super confused in one of the Sand Patch Grade missions still toward the beginning I cant switch locos and operate the opposite end of the consist. Even when I move the MU switch it revs and the Amps climb but then it just wheel slips and stalls. What the heck am I doing wrong.
Thank you
You helped me big time
Glad I could help :)
Hm it seems after when I saved and exited the game and logged back in the rear engines don't respond anymore all I hear is them starting up and idling and not revved up to notch 8 :/ and I can't tell if my rear engine behind the lead engine is even responding any clues on how to fix them?
Train sim devs: Please make detailed tutorials showing me how to set things up correctly and just give the vets an option to skip if they know everything. ~SIgned someone who doesn't know anything about trains
idk what I would have done if it wasn't for Fluffy
Hi, I'm new in this game so you help me alot! Thank you so much! I will start to watch your videos from now on 😉👍
Glad I could help! I hope you'll enjoy my other videos :) One of them will go live in 2 and a half hours :)
@@FluffyAdmiral, for sure I will enjoy!!!! Thank you again and keep going! 👍👍👍👍
The power drop is not a game bug. Its the transition of this locomotive’s engines. Its just like real life
59:30 I have to use all breaks like automatic breake, indipendent break, and dynamic break with full. However after that now the train does not move more than 15 km/h.. How can I fix that? @Fluffy Armchair Admiral
Hello,with 472 AMPS with throttle 8 reach top speed 59 mhp:), nice setup and thx.
Nice 👍
congratulations, awesome
finally a complete explanation whether in French or in English. I am french. Google Translate
Glad I could help!
In the beginning, ignore the trailing engine, and get in the lead and get hooked up as quick as possible. Then get it setup as shown here. Haul ass up to the front of the stack, again ignoring the trailing engine, and get in the seat and start trying to go. If you do this quick enough, you can beat the other train and save 15m from the first signal, and about 15m from subsequent signals, since you will be the lead train. Then get the rest of the front engine setup with radio and such and enjoy a much smoother route.
I managed to overrun, that train with tanks, all time green lights :)
Got all the way to end and either i forgot to put the brake on or the ai drove it away haha. Dont mind doing it all again though, great rout
Thank you i have learn alot from this video cause my train kept going backwards
Glad it helped
I don't like how the game assumes you either played TSW1/2020 or work as an Engineer. Because the tutorials barely touch on how to move around and that's it.
No DPU setups, not even how the signal lights work.
Thanks to your vid I realized I could simply travel at 18mph the whole time and look at the map to see the other train and when it would pass the required signal so mine would turn Yellow. I didn't had to break a single time and only arrived 3 minutes after you did.
Thank you man! You help me a lot, but unfortunatley i still have a problem: when i have to stop the train to the Sand patch side track, i have a train that block my way and It doesn't move. I hope I don't have to restart the level :(.
Make sure to stop your train exactly at the marker. Dovetail made it quite difficult at times as those are placed very close to the signals. Use waypoint distance guide and stop when it's as close to 0 as possible or turn on objective markers in options to see them on the tracks.
Hi) how your diesel locomotive goes so fast?. mine in 8th gear can't climb more than 12 mph
In my few tries didnt get enough power and train went downhill lol all brakes failed. Later did loco setup then managed to do it
I know this is an older video, and I didn't want to read all of the comments. You asked for an idea of remuneration for experienced engineers. I knew someone in the 80's whose uncle was one. Fast forward to today. We are looking at $200.00 an hour. You must also understand that taking a 3000 mile job you are paid 24 hours a day till finished. Which includes overtime and double overtime. A very good package to be sure.
I did the setup as you did, but somehow I must always have the throttle one or two higher than yours and it's slightly slower on acceleration. So I have the throttle on 8 while producing over 600 amps and I can't get my train above 40mph!
I just find u
And its good!
Ur a good man c:
I tryied to do the timetable service Q249 with ac440 coupled with sd40-2 (with no helpers loocos pair on the end), I set the weather to snowy and wet, and there is no chance to pass the summit. Train always stops at the beginning of the grade after passing Hyndman checkpoint. Do you have any advise how to pass the summit with only two locos pair?
I haven't looked into this scenario yet, but I'll check it when I get some time and see if I can come up with something.
I didn't do any of that stuff at the start with radio or the other loco at front other than the one it tells you to go to and it still moved just fine, although a mile down the track I did get a SPAD even though I didn't see any light. :) I also didn't need to wait for the brake thing. I just did/do what it tells me and all was well. :) ... PS having just completed this scenario, I now understand the reasoning because the latter part of the game is really hard to get speed up as you explain, although towards the end it did pick up again for some reason but I'm going to re-watch to see what you did. How could I doubt you?! lol
Maybe Dovetail fixed some things. When I tried this scenario with the settings that were proposed by the game I could barely go up on that hill.
@@FluffyAdmiral Yes it got much tougher towards the end and very slow once the gradients appeared, although I did get up them thankfully.
@@NickJay I admire your patience then.... Settings proposed by DT allows you to drive at 10 - 15 MPH while the settings I shown will allow you to drive at 20 -- 25...
at 21:32 it started showing yellow signal below the inclination symbol and showing red in the power symbol 3
and after slowing it completely stopped and not moving at all
did every step same as yours
also PCS open is showing red automatically now
any idea what went wrong?
solved it
had to switch off the "warning alert in fuse box"
thanks for the guide
rode with you in your whole video and i also recieved gold medal.. you also got a sub 😁😁
Woohoo! :3
58:35 I was starting to sweat, 600 feet from a stop signal and dude is still going 30mph. Conductor life 😅
Powering America (part 2) was tough for me , faced many wheelslips and went into emergency twice.
yea i want to know what are those Sand and Wheelslips
I have been struggling with that one i am at the last red light and for the life of me cant get the train moving again
@@Tolarbear I completed it but yeah I had that trouble too, just hit the sand and go notch 5 or 6
Thanks so much
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you very much for providing clear instructions on what to do in this scenario where the tutorial is insufficient and incorrect. I have only one question, which is general: if, by mistake, I put the automatic brake on "emergency", no matter what I do later, the train keeps braking even after I use the lever to "release" everything. Is there a way to "solve" this issue?
In any case, as I said, thank you very very much. Very clear tutorial. :-)
There is a reset procedure that needs to be done after engaging the emergency brakes th-cam.com/video/Xw1uWaytpNE/w-d-xo.html
Finally able to finish this journey..playing on PS5... 👍
U know there's a train ahead n also know how bad it is to stop yet u don't seem to realize that slowing down or maintaining a steady pace with the train ahead will help solve the problem lol
Anyone know what to do when switching ends. If oyu dont put on the brake this trains starts rolling and you cant get off. and if you have the break on you cant move anyways. So i sont know what to do lol.
