What do you think about the new Academy? My opinion is that the idea is good but the implementation is poor. Forget nearly everything what you can learn about German signaling and there are mistakes with the track. The stretches of track are to short for longer and / or deeper tutorials. The best are the locos.

Hi Matt
i must admit i love the academy i could never drive steam trains before for the life of me with this feature in TS2015 it is so much easier and understandable so thank you for a excellent product.

Re: Academy
Academy's one of the things I took a quick look at as I struggle to ignore un-necessary stuff, indeed I just checked one of the steam loco ones regarding signalling, nothing I don't know already of course so there's my excuse for not exploring further and carrying on with my own routes regardless :p

Re: Academy
I tried out a couple of Tutorials for new locos I picked up in the sale.
Is it just me, or does the completion tick only appear after you restart Steam? With TS2014 it showed immediately after completion.

Re: Academy
For anyone who is completely new to TS the academy is great, having said that even I who has been into train simming since MSTS, Rail simulator and the original Railworks have been giving them a go just for fun.
