you're right about Stoke tunnel ... this from Wikipedia...
The only railway tunnel on the Great Eastern Main Line is just to the south of the current Ipswich railway station. The 361-yard (330 m) long tunnel was built by Peter Bruff as part of the Ipswich to Ely Line. It was completed in 1846 and it is thought to be the earliest driven on a sharp continuous curve. During the excavation of the tunnel many important fossils were uncovered, including rhinoceros, lion, and, mammoth; the site was known as the 'Stoke Bone Beds'. The finds are considered important in understanding climate change during the Ice Age. This tunnel had the trackbed lowered so the line could accommodate higher container trains.
The tunnel has earned itself the reputation "the wettest tunnel in Britain" as a natural spring still runs through the tunnel, so the walls carry running water most of the time
I remember it well ... thanks for the video.
+eboniteboy Thanks for the info, that's really interesting! :)
my grandparents used to live in Suffolk so I used to ride this train between London Liverpool street and Ipswich in the early 90s! nice vid!!
Nice video as always Pete :-D Good to see a non-stop run all the way from Ipswich as well.
+William Mankelow Thanks William! This was an enjoyable run to drive :)
Glad to see you took up my suggestion +PTGRail ;)
The AP40 pack really is a great pack from Armstrong Powerhouse! Have it myself, some interesting scenario's in there.
+Aviation/Rail Videography by gregster295 No problem. I've had a few people request this so was glad to finally get around to working on it. It's a great scenario pack! :)
Great video as always! It is great to see this route on high graphics settings and smooth fps. Hard to believe your PC has issues too. I can't wait another year for DTG to switch to UE4 which is long overdue!
As for all of your requests, I find it happens with all youtubers that people get frustrated when they don't get their requests sooner. I realize how much goes into making such long videos that you make, as well you have to learn the entire route and the workings of the locos which is a huge undertaking by itself. Plus you have university! I myself am in university and can barely handle a full load. How you do both is quite remarkable! You're doing a great job and I hope you continue to do so for a while.
+Joel Stevens Thanks for the comment! Indeed, the TS game engine is badly optimised, hence the performance issues. I'm very much looking forward to the next generation train simulator too!
I think you're right on that. I feel sometimes that people think this is all I do and it's a quick and easy job to make a video. Each video you see represents at least 4-6 hours of work, with many taking up to twice as long to produce. Balancing this now with uni and a part time job is a challenge so I'm making as many videos as I can. I'm trying to do a minimum one a week, with the ideal being 2-3 a week :)
Your ideas for doing some videos on other 'sims' do sound very interesting, ill be keeping an eye out for those for sure.
+simonmd2000 Thank you. I'm trying to plan out how to do them, but I would definitely like to cover other train related sims/games in the near future :)
Great video train man! Can't wait until the NEC video comes out! If you ask for my opinion, I vote for the Acela Express. That is by far my favorite train to drive.
+Shawn Bickel Thanks! I've decided on the M8 for now :)
Peter, Another very entertaining video. Many thanks, Roger Crick
+Roger Crick Thank you Roger! Glad you enjoyed it :)
I am definitely looking forward to your RLV's on the American Amtrak scenarios. I like playing those routes and the amount of signal knowledge you need, and there are segments of those routes with inexplicable speed changes and "How-the-f-would-I-know-to-slow-down-there-without-the-HUD?" moments.
+nuothe11th Haha, well the next US video will be out very shortly :)
Just discovered your videos - great work!
+John Alderton Thank you John! I really appreciate it :)
So glad to see this loco being covered, and in a good drive too. The 86/87 are probably my favourite locos to drive in the game, partly because they're so rewarding to drive and the other part being they've got such a great noise!
What the slight drawbacks are I find about the 86 In this game are firstly the whole thing about it not being able to achieve more than 94mph despite having a top speed of 110...the next part is that compared to the Over Shap 87, the power delivers quite fast which Is slightly less realistic. Also like you said, the same goes for the train/loco brake, they seem to apply quite fast compared to the gradual bleed of the Over Shap 87 variant.
Another nitpick I have is with the AP soundpack, while the sounds are good I feel on the older variants they could add the AWS horn that goes off with cautionary aspects that I've heard in cab rides, another thing is that they could possibly add new features like a cab light for the 86, the brake overcharge plunger and a driver to guard call.
Two last things to this extensive text (apologies, I really like this machine) were the 86s also built at Newton-le-Willows?
Also a method I've seen 86 drivers use in cab rides is that when they stop at a station they release the train brake, apply the loco brake on full, set the handle to off and then switch the reverser to off in that order, and when they start off on a line with a high starting speed they run up the power and set the handle to hold when the needles just nearly at the top of the yellow.
+Peter Stuart Thanks for the info and your observations :)
TheDustyBinman I
Like 86 & 87's, cant remember which class it was but used to like them in RES livery, also had a bit of a bias towards RES as my late uncle used to drive for RES after finishing with Intercity
There is a file, I believe on the uktrainsim site that allows the Class 86 to get up to 100mph.
Amazing work! Thank you :)
+JDB158 Thank you! :)
brilliant vid again
+Matthew Merrill Thank you :)
Cool video I love the new video
I wish there was a pack where you could drive the DBSO
If and or when that happens please a realistic service from Liverpool Street to Ipswich in Anglia
A great commentary thanks. Are there no neutral sections on this track like the WCML ?
I remember playing Microsoft Train Simulator with the North East Corridor, Settle-Carlisle and Marias Pass.
+Sir Peepsalot Haha yes, my parents bought it for me on release day for £50!
PTGRail I got it on release date in 2001 or was it 2000 for the Windows ME. I had the Flying Scotsman on the cover.
Synystershy same
The class 86 used in this scenario is a 4,040 HP loco.
Peter? Can you maybe do a route guide for GEML? I would really enjoy it :D
Hi PTG rail please can you try the Munich to Augsburg high speed plus I think your videos are very helpful to have and keep on going
+Nikky Ehinlanwo I've mad a slower video on that route already, and will indeed make a faster video at some point soon :)
Damn!! Did you ever do that engine reset guide because that's what I was hoping to see in this video but you neglected to show us. I accidentally went into the red and so my engine shut down. I Run down the settings and the needle was at zero but I couldn't get the train to move again after that even after moving the handle back to the 'Hold' position and taping 'A'. I even pressed the 'Fault Reset' button but still the Class 86 wouldn't move.
Can you do this but driving the DBSO? That would be cool
love a bit of 86 action, great video, also do you know about the DBSO cab view patch from bluecode? makes it drivable aswell :) I have the mk2e coaches so I think the dbso is called for ;) I look forward to your next video!
+Rail sim Cab Rides Thanks! The Class 86 is an awesome loco :) I'm aware of the patch but I believe there is no cab in the DBSO even if you use it?
+PTGRail you are correct! found out the hard way haha, shame though, it would make a huge difference to the set.
Cities in motion 2 is a fantastic game where you manage a transport company
+Sydney Trains Facts & Trivia I have both CiM 1 and 2, though haven't been able to really get into 2 so far.
+PTGRail oh ok
I might recreate this route for OpenBVE (I can edit a 350 and use a 185 cabview to make the 360) - probably starting at Shenfield or Chelmsford rather than London
+Ayman Ilham I'm guessing that it will be quite a challenge to recreate?
from where did you get the angila skin for class 86
Nice long video thanks for this :)
+Class380Fan Also I saw some MK2 Anglia coaches in Newton-on Ayr a while back. I think they were going to be changed to First great western coaches at a depot at Kilmarnock :)
+Class380Fan And taken back down to England :)
+Class380Fan Thanks! :)
+Class380Fan I quite like the old MK2 coaches :)
back in the 50s and 60s steam was being fazed and deasels was just coming through but I can rember a steam engine pulling a deasel to get it started the deasels either started up or they didn't Newark northgate was a bigger station then than it is now
+Keith Creasey Thanks for the info! :)
I live in kelvedon and the this map is really accurate
when it stutters and jumps, does an ssd drive improve that?
Nice video. Try the North Yorkshire Moors Railway line?
+marco honders Thanks! :) I'm not sure we currently have that route in Train Simulator?
Hay PTGRail. Do you plan on using the FanRailer Sound pack M8. I have to say, it sounds really like the real train. I see and hear these trains everyday.
+Etho Smith I tried out the sound pack and wasn't taken in with it. I felt the motor noise was too loud in relation to everything else, and I could also hear where the sound was looping.
Another train strategy game you did not mention: Sid Meier's Railroads
+astroandrius Thanks! Indeed, that's another one I would like to check out :)
so that's how you drive the class 86, I didn't really know how to drive it when I brought it yesterday.
+Kirkinstein Haha, well I'm glad that you found this video to help. Have you now been able to successfully drive a Class 86? :)
PTGRail yep, thanks pete
Great video driving master. Have you done GWML Oxford-London Paddington?
+HyperVenomProduction Thanks :) I haven't yet but will do in the future.
+HyperVenomProduction yes he has done a first late western service on the gwml
+PTGRail If the class 86 weighs 81t, why isn't it called the class 81?
+Highspeedline01 I know, I was just deperatley trying to be funny.
When a friend of mine mentioned a train simulator in a casual chat about games, I pretty much started laughing. And then I came here. This looks so fun! I'm sure your professional commentary plays a role, too. What kind of PC do you need to be able to enjoy this game on the highest (or almost) settings lag-free ?
+davidtsw Haha! Well I'm glad you found some enjoyment out of this video and are now considering playing the game in the future. It's great! Though I would warn anyone that you need an interest in trains or the simulation genre to get the most enjoyment out of this. This video was recorded on my new PC, and the specs are:
Intel Core i7 4790k 4ghz processor
16gb Kingston Hyper-X DDR3 1833mhz RAM
Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 4gb graphics card
All of the videos labelled 'Train Simulator 2015' were made on my old PC with lower graphics settings and slightly worse performance. :)
That's a hell of a machine ;) Do you experience any frame rate drops while not recording ? I suppose you have the sim maxed out, right?
+PTGRail about the missing train you mentioned during your daily commute...
perhaps they just haven't downloaded the DLC yet? :D
-- Smoov
+Smoovious Hahaha! I guess not :p I've since discovered that the PIS is behind.. it runs later than the trains do lol :p
can you do a video with the class 456 and 455/8 with the 456 leading
+Colin Engelbert I'll see what I can do :)
I've encountered ghost trains at Yeovil Pen Mill
+ScienceNow Haha, glad to hear Southern aren't the only TOC with this issue XD
Did you ever do a train guide for this loco ?
I didn’t, but would still like to do so.
how are you SOO good at TS. You would make a real driver easy :) (Can you do The Dalesman in TS) the dalesman is a steam train express from York to Carlisle Calling at Normanton, Wakefield Kirkgate, Wakefield Westgate, Leeds, Shipley ,Keighley, Appleby and Carlisle.) I went on it and it was like a tour it said what station/bridge we went via it was awesome.
+Leprechaun Plays Haha, thanks! It's just all about having lots of practice :) Unfortunately that route isn't currently available in Train Simulator.
o :( xD
Hey PTGRail. Just a couple of corrections:
Class 86s top speed is actually 110mph, I remember being told this when learning the units.
You mentioned that you must wait for the notches to run-down if out in run-down or off. Actually you must never move the handle to off when under power, as this will cause a fault.
Just so you don't think you're going mad, that signal at Liverpool Street DID actually change to a double yellow and then back to a single. Quite a spooky bug if you ask me. Makes me feel like I'm not alone in the simulator...
+Joe The Fish On TS2016, won't reach 100mph (unless a patch off UKTS is installed). Also, Class 86 has a top speed of either 100 or 110. 75 for 86/6's ;)
I was talking about the real Class 86 which can get to the top. I was not talking about the TS version, at all.
+Joe The Fish Only very few Class 86s were capable of 110mph, with the majority only permitted to run at 100mph which is why I said 100 in this video :)
Joe The Fish I was talking about both TS and real.
PTGRail 87's pretty much 110mph :)
on the return journey can you go from London to noriwch I live near noriwch :-)
+Ashley Webb Unfortunately not at present as the route doesn't go further than Ipswich/Felixstowe.
Ok
Any repaints for the class 86 with the lion?
Not that I'm aware of.
PTGRail Oh.
hey dude pls do a geml London to Ipswich with class 360
+Raymond DeLaGhetto I will see what I can do :)
Please can you do open bve on things like the tube
+Ben_1407_ I'm looking into it :)
+PTGRail cool
is it true colchester north station had the longest platform in the country?
I remember reading that in the Guinness Book of Records, but it was Colchester, not Colchester North. I believe Colchester North used to known as St.Botolphs until the early 90’s
@@Shads5 thats the other way around i think....colchester town (st botolphs) is the small train statin in the town and colchester north is the big one with 6 platforms where the intercity trains stop
@@adspotter Yeah, that’s what I meant. Don’t think I explained it well!
Had a quick Google and it seems there are a couple of stations that claim the longest platform. Gloucester is the longest, but that’s two platforms combined. Darlington seems to have the longest single platform
Should've been ONE, should've been ONE.
+Marshell George (The Growl) Lol, I quite like the Anglia livery.
I vote FOR BVE simulations.
+John Schroeder I'd definitely like to cover a couple of BVE routes :)
