  • I got bve, but everytime i try to open it, it says "could not initiallte Direct3D"

    Can you help?

  • @saveus444 Those cars in the fleet have a very distinctive sound. They don't put those cars on the ends of trains anymore (because of that accident last summer)...

  • @hotstix12 I really miss the old chimes...

  • Look up Rohr 1000 series, and you will hear and see the real thing accelerating. This train video sounds exactly like the real, maybe little different.

  • GLENMONT!!!

  • BVE Trainsim measures in km/h. 120km/h is close to 75 mi/h.

  • dose the metro really hit speeds of 120mph?????

  • Cool!

  • The DC Metro's alternating current (AC) motors have a "ringing" sound. It's often mistaken for "gears" because it sounds like gears changing. The same sound happens when the train slows under 10 mph as when it accelerates to just under 15 mph. When it's slowing, it's the regenerative braking using the motors as generators, and the resistance causes the train to slow down. The reason the tones change is technical but it has to do with changing the electrical current being fed to the AC motors.

  • what makes that secondary "whine" noise as the train slows down at the station (under about 10 mph)
