The challenging topography of the land saw rails navigate over hills and cling to coastlines, but was considered favourable over an alternative route over the granite Tors of Dartmoor. What followed was instant connections to seaside resorts and the ability to cross some of the most picturesque railway in England; as a result, the line soared in popularity.In Train Sim World, the stretch from Exeter to Plymouth links Devonshire’s two cities via this dramatic and historic rout...

  1 Week To Go! Everything you need to know: Train Faults, Random Events and more.

  New features are coming in Train Sim World 6! Get ready to expect the unexpected with moments and events that will impact gameplay, such that no two services will ever be the same.In this article, we outline what players can expect from day one, across the three new routes and new trains that are included.This includes some new Train Faults not previously mentioned in previous articles and a video to highlight some of them in action.We also highlight parts of these features that are planned for post-releases updates.Random Events - An OverviewSignal DelaysSignal Delays will occur in timetable mode, meaning certain signal aspects will alter later than is normally expected in Train Sim World. Whilst the effect might not be immediate in one isolated delay, the knock-on effect may result in AI trains overtaking yours or a build up of delays over the course of a full service run.Signal Delays will be available in the new routes and will be applied to back catalogue routes for Train Sim World 6 players.Temporary Speed RestrictionsThe other Random Event is the enforcement of Temporary Speed Restrictions.Signs will appear beside the track to give a visual indication of where any restrictions start and end.The HUD will also react to these restrictions, giving you a clearer guide as to when you need to slow down to comply with the restrictions.After reviewing the complexities of adding non-authentic assets to certain routes (i.e. modern-day assets on a historic route, or German signage appearing on a Dutch route, for example), we will just be implementing this for launch on TSW6 routes and will review opportunities to add to older content in the future.Train Faults - The Full ListTrain Faults can be toggled to ‘Enabled’ in the Settings Menu to trigger a selection of equipment failures to occur at random within trains that are included in Train Sim World 6.When a failure occurs, a Driver Assist pop-up will appear on screen that explains the fault and gives guidance on how you ...

  Train Sim World 6 – New Route for New Jersey

  Last week we gave more details about the Leipzig-Dresden route and BR 294 Deluxe Edition locomotive. We'll talk more about Riviera Line in a future article.In this article, we’ll dive deep into the details of the NJ TRANSIT® fleet included, as well as the ALP-45DP available in Deluxe Edition. We’ll also look at the route, schedule and service layers.The Morristown Line:New York & Hoboken - DoverThe Morristown line dates back to the lucrative 1830s, when New Jersey locals needed a connection to New York City. Born to carry people, the line accelerated in popularity among passengers, being extended to Dover by 1848. As time passed and companies merged, it became part of the many electrified lines into New York, and Hoboken Terminal, and today is a frequent commuter line operated by NJ TRANSIT®.The route is a tale of two halves, with the dense urban environment of New York City slowly fading away into the more suburban setting of New Jersey. New York Penn is the busiest railroad station in the Western Hemisphere, located beneath the famous Madison Square Garden, serving up to 600,000 passengers per day.The addition of Hoboken Terminal brings another thriving station to this part of the country in Train Sim World, being one of the busiest passenger terminals in North America. From here, trains head through the 1908 Bergen Tunnels, through Newark and Orange to ultimately reach Dover station.The electrified Morristown Line heads through plenty of small-town stations with a mix of low-level and high-level platforms over a distance of 40 miles. It from these platforms that the new, audible platform announcements will be heard!Newark Broad Street offers a place for ALP-45DP engineers to change from diesel to electric power (and vice versa) and Kearney Connection offers likewise between voltages for the ALP-46.Of particular interest to the Dovetail Games team is the inclusion of Dover and Chatham stations, named for their equivalent towns in Kent, England. Chatham in Kent is ...
