Atomic Systems

Good to see this on your side of the pond. Same thing on my side. "Why do they have ditch ligts?" "Why did they not restore the paint scheme?" "That stack looks silly and is NOT HISTORICALY ACCURATE!!!!!" A fireman for a GS-4 4-8-4 told me "They could paint her pink, it wouldn't matter to me." And t...

Better steam physics and the understanding that on this side of the pond, things get really big. Good physics for articulateds is a must. I agree with the point made earlier about the AI driver, and how about better fire graphics too? So we can work the fire?

Thanks, some very good information!

Thank you all!

I'm curious what the whistle signals (Locomotive) are in the UK. Starting, stopping and the like. I've also noticed in bits of footage and photos I've seen there is no latching system on the throttle (Regulator) like we have here in the states. How is the steam flow controled at an even rate, is it ...

Eh, give me a Nothern Pacific A3 4-8-4 Northern. 69,800lbs tractive effort, 398,063kg total weight, one of the most beautiful whistles I've ever heard. Well it was actually an SP&S E1 class, but same sound I would guess. And to hear her work up a ~1 in 40 with 16 cars, that was was a sight to behold...

Greetings from across the pond! I've just gotten into UK train-simming and have discovered the sound of a three-cylinder at speed is the most wonderful racket I've yet heard in MSTS! The closest we get over here is a Shay/Climax/Heisler type and thats only at 15mph! Currently I'm only running the de...
