in order to get the SD70 to start you have to go t startup options and click on driver commands and add the START STOP LOCOMOTIVES option and then put the sd70s on the diesel refuling station and they fuel up, you issue the start stop command and it starts up and you can use it.
@nathanairchimesP135R you can also move the camra angles and when the cramra is facing a panle on the back wall move the two switches and then pull the engine start button
A slug is a locomotive platform without a diesel motor. It has only traction (electric motors) on the wheelsets. Most slugs have no cabs, but some do, most notably the CSX road slugs made from EMD GP30s and GP35s. These have even kept their original carbodies in addition to the cabs and look like ordinary locomotives until you notice the abscence of engine hood doors and radiators.
I don't have the game anymore, so no! It is really simple, I don't know why it is so complicated for everyone. You use Content Manager. READ THE GAME MANUAL!
Nothing you can do now, but the grade down the hump is probably too steep and if the pushing speed is too high (>5mph) the cars will roll very unrealistic down the hump. Did you run in CAB mode while making the the video? the cars behave different in CAB mode and starts more slowly. /Lars
I don't remember, I made this almost 2 years ago, and I have uninstalled Trainz since then. Should re-install, and try again through. Also, this video was made with little to no knowlege of how a hump works. :P
yea tell me about it lol, when i run the SD70M it looks like the frame rate went down to 5 per second, its so SLOW! but the CMP downloady thingy not working pisses me off.....
get TRS2009. CMP2 is much better then the origonal and it has somthing in its programmming that raises frame rates, but keep in mind, the frame rates might be you computer not the game. wahts your specs?
computer? its windows vista homebasic, im not sure of the spects but i think TRS2009 would work better, just wish there were more downloads lol, i know this guy on the uslw whos making some MP15AC's he made for 09 with working ditches(yea it does that so thats cool) anyway ill order it soon, which one sould i get though i know there will be 2 out, i think the first is the best right?
the first one that is out now is world builder. its basicly a new version of 06' and TC with LOTS of content. the 2nd one due out in march has no route builder and has some payware content (you are stuck with what it comes with) get the one thats out now.
Alex,no canadian locomotives? It is interesting for our american neighbors but what about us CN-CP lovers? Also do you think that you could reproduce Exporail and it's rolling stock? 1002,CN30,John Molson,1959 etc?
hey i was wondering how did you get the no cab engine i forget what there called or dose it come with the game cause i just ordered the game from ebay last nite
Many websites. Auran website and others. Search on Google. There must be a dozen freeware websites with great stuff and 100 more with okay stuff. Also payware.
Get what? The game? The Cars? The Lomotives? The Route? The video capture program? The list goes on and on... No offence, but PLEASE MAKE YOUR QUESTION MORE CLEAR!
Never mind, I see you have both TRS2006 and TRS2004. If you go to auran's download station, you'll find both locomotives and some railroad cars. Some also came from US Trainz and Trainz Pro Routes.
A railroad slug is an accessory to a diesel-electric locomotive. It has trucks with traction motors but is unable to move about under its own power, as it does not contain a prime mover to produce electricity. Instead, it is connected to a locomotive, called the mother, which provides current to operate the traction motors.
So it's all electric? So it acts like a secondary locomotive, or a drone?I guess?. I have a another question, how come I don't see them widely used on the railroad?
Yes. Yes. YES! They are very slow locomotives, and are meant for pushing or pulling heavy loads, not for speed on the mainline. They were mainly found in hump yards, but there aren't many left. Sometimes they are used in swiching duties, such as industrial areas, or just plain swiching in yards, which you don't get to see to often. Hope this answers your question!
I see, thank you that answers my questions. It reminded me when I was a kid and I saw it. I was like, "What like of locomotive is that?!, no cab?!" In the game it only goes like 7mph at the most. Which what you said was true, it's ssslllloooow. Again thank you for explaining that to me. ^.^
