Nice to see that Train Simulator videos are coming back. Lovely Locomotive and one of the best Sams Trains Thumbnails 😂
Thank you so much!! haha glad you liked the thumb ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains ye man your so funny I’m gonna screen shot it 😂
While this is not the kind of thing I am inclined to do, my wife and I enjoyed watching this. The images and detail are very good and it teaches you a fair bit about driving trains. Keep up the good work Sam!
The loco will be red and the tender will have a greyed out coupling, showing that the loco and tender are one unit. Another thing in this game that you have to worry about is in the career scenarios, that you have to pay attention to signals and if you need to pass signals at danger, here's the tips I can give:
Press Tab if you're going forward
Press Control+Tab if you're running in reverse
As for other tips:
Watch the AI Traffic around you. You, as the player, may think you have priority, but AI trains will come out of nowhere and take over priority (if set up that way), forcing signals to danger.
Pay attention to your train's length. Longer trains require longer distances and greater amount of brake pressure to be applied
If driving an advanced engine (See CW or BMG or even VW), and the engine has an auto fireman, set the auto fireman to take care of the firing (or in the case of CW locos, the firing and water injectors), allowing you to concentrate on the rails ahead.
If driving in adverse weather, make sure you take all precautions into account. What's your visibility like, how much distance do you need now, what's the weather like and so on.
Check your train. Is it empty or is it loaded. If it's empty, you're not going to need as much distance as if it was a loaded train.
when you go in reverse the coupling set up is reversed as well, when you uncoupled you actually uncoupled the brake van and the wagon next to it 🤣🤣🤣
Hey sam! Nice to see the Train Sim videos back! Also nice to see that you're driving a route that I'm very close to! In fact, I've actually been in the tunnel at 9:36, It's suprisingly easy to access and there's even an old signal bracket down inside of it!
Thank you so much!! Ahh that's amazing - it's still there then?? :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I think the loco you were struggling to identify was a Thompson B1, there are some V2's and Robinson 04's in there too
I personally just suddenly came to realization that that they certainly mentioned that there's a specifically wonderfully great balancing act between the regulator as well as the reverser to maintain momentum!
2:02 Bless you! 🤣
hahaha thank you ;D
Sam, when uncoupling the loco in HUD you need to look for the red bar. That represent the engine.
These are good and your one looks very detailed , I've had a go at one of my friends train sim , but as someone who has been lucky to drive some heritage locos I found this more challenging then the real thing! lol , and getting a penalty for blowing your whistle/ horn is annoying as did that a lot when people waved at us , so I should have a crew bag full of penalty notices 😂 and when going in/ out of a tunnel use the whistle 👍
You need to go to the other end in coupling window. Use the scroll bar. The engine is red. Be careful not to uncouple the tender! 😀
Absolutely loved this….super location detail..and as always so entertaining…cheers
Was not expecting a Saturday Night and Sunday Morning mention ha!
four hoppers and a brake van in the platform... Sam says"i think we got away with that"... excellent video Sam
There are route speed limits (10, 20, 25, 50, 70) Maximums for all trains. And there are train specific speed limits (in this case 50 but could be less or more dependent on wagon type, load, locomotive capacity, etc..).
Used to have fun with Microsoft TrainSimulator (2002 era), which isn't much older than DTG's Train Simulator (20xx, classic). Its locos and rolling stock files were text files. So a friend and I would modify some of the locos. We got the Acela to hit about 700mph. A steam loco with no carriages pushed to around 1,200mph!! We used the "don't derail" option. When the map ran out of track and hit the bumper stock, it launched the loco about 300ft into the air and flew about a mile or so before it crashed into the ground. It was spinning, etc. Ah...
Train Simulator 20xx/classic is 2010 gaming tech. It's still pretty good, but the game has so little flexibility - even in "Free Roam" mode. Go a bit too fast, miss a stop, etc = game ends.
Noticed the Falmouth branch line on screen. I used to live near there a few years ago, and it would be great to see the scenery again
First time I've ever commented on any UA-cam video ever!
I can't even begin to express what an utter delight it has been for me to watch your video after having poured my heart and soul into this route for so many years back in the day. :)
The viaduct bit comes through Weekday Cross (I believe the trams use a similar alignment nowadays) into London Road High Level with LR Low level terminus beneath. The modern day Nottingham station is the Midland.
One of the main reasons for Colwick's demise was due to the 'issues' with Mapperley Tunnel which briefly resulted in the convoluted routing in the scenario you played.
(The locos you mistake for Black 5s are Thompson B1s.)
Hi Sam which sim was this? The detail is fantastic!
As an aside the tunnels either side of Victoria are still there but the junction you didn't recognise was Weekday Cross near the old Arkwright Street station which is all housing, a car dealership and a tram line now. It's been a couple of years since I was last in Nottingham though. Went to a concert at the Motorpoint Arena
I think it is Train Simulator Classic from Dovetail Games. At least that is the version that I own myself.
Finally a train simulator video, it's been a long time since you did one :)
Cheer Jasper & Willow
It has been ages! Hope you enjoy :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Good video. Learned some more of the controls. For uncoupling the loco is on the right side, have to scroll
At least you knew how to pronounce "Basford" although being a localler helps 🤣
Older BR locos never had cab lights they had to rely on a engine lamp sat on the tender or at the back the cab they had actual cab lights fitted in the preservation era also the loco that you passed was a Ex LNER 4-6-0 B1 and the 2-8-0 was a Robinson 04 :)
I'm from Nottingham too so will look at this one. I remember trying the Doncaster works and towing the class 37`s only to find out if taken another route to the next to pick up and I phased right through instead of coupling. Stupid thing😂
Can you do a TS Derby to Matlock route with a LMS Royal Scot with a passenger train? I would love that.
I personally just suddenly learned from watching another awesomely excellent UA-cam video taking place on the footplate of the famous sole-serving Doncaster built in the year of precisely 1923 on February 24th respectfully L N E R class A3 Pacific type of steam-driven railway tender locomotive designed by Sir Herbert Nigel Gresley himself known as the Flying Scotsman that they blow the whistle when entering tunnels as well as exciting tunnels!
You are right Sam and that's one of the things that gets up my nose about train simulator. One false move and its curtains. I suppose they think you are going to spend your life perfecting the game and ignoring the fun factor of it completely.
That's what they're meant to be doing.
cf. the PlayStation controller for some modern day US weapon control systems.
Poor kids, these days.
I'm horrible at Train Simulator, so you did a great job. I think they kicked me out of the school...hahahaha
Awesome video today Sam and bless you when you sneezed lol
Funny story Sam, I was going on hattons and I saw a bachmann split chassis 4mt, and it was first introduced in 1905....now it could just be me, but the Standard class 4 doesn't look like a 1905 locomotive ;)
Cheers Jasper & Willow
haha 1905, blimey that's an old model... even pre-dating the real things quite considerably, hahaha!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
A fun train ride. But it looks like Sam needs to get his Learner Plates again. Lol.
Nice to see the TS videos back I guess. I got this route with one of the few dlcs for my birthday last month, actually
Although in the case of the 8F, I suggest getting the one from Bossman games because well that 8f has a few issues (the fact that its indirect and direct on the two sides would be an example)
Didn't seem like a black five. The firebox for example, didn't seem similar to both a black five nor even the 8f. Maybe a B2? Idk, it looked similar
The London Road High Level building survived till about 18 years ago as a Hooters bar. Then it was knocked down, and now it's Binks Yard / Cleaver and Wake. The old London Road Low Level is still there as a Virgin gym.
19:14 it's actually a B1 lol
Ahhh there we go then!! Makes sense :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Fumbling around in the dark....... 😅😅 Has so many other meaning
Oh mate you’ve gotta give VR a go! Open your eyes for the first time in that headset and you’ll never go back, especially in a loco
I hope the locomotive model has sprung buffers and all-wheel pickups for the best electrical continuity with your track. Maybe even separately fitted lamp irons. Is this a Hornby or Bachmann model? 🤣😆😂
Nice to see my Grandparents’ house - in the Heathfield Estate on the left before you crossed Valley Road. I just about remember hearing locos on the line when I used to stay there in the mid 1960s. I also remember catching a train from Victoria once and the fuss when the line was closed and the station demolished. Similarly, I remember London Road Station and the slum clearances along St Anne’s, which was the rows of houses you pointed out. Weekday Cross tunnel Southern portal is still visible, I believe. Looking forward to your next attempt!
Nottingham Victoria and the whole line was closed in the mid 1960's. It is no wonder that you do not know too much of the area.
Thanks very much for sharing Trevor - that makes sense!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
It was part of the GCR line
You should try Steam Sounds Supreme’s stainmore shap and eden valley, it’s honestly the best route I’ve come across. Lots of great scenery tonnes of locos and challenging hills and bends, as well as being straight up beautiful.
"I don't really recognise any of this" he said whilst looking at the one bit that's actually still there and in use now! :)
Good show. Sam. Shame they didn't correct you and let you carry on, as you say. It's your game after all ! Are you playing on Ultra Ultra difficult, none shall pass mode?
Graphics on these sims seem much better than when i played the very early ones on slow pcs. No hiding that you were distracted and failed the challenge. Better luck next time
That was brilliant Sam I've never looked twice at a simulator before but now I want one.
Thanks a lot Steve - these are a great fun way to kill half an hour... always very interesting!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I played Train sim world 3 recently and my 8F flung itself when hitting the buffers.😅
Totally wasn’t because I was going over the yard limit…
On the coupling menu, if you move the slider to the point where you see a red blob in the consist, that should be the locomotive
Colwick sheds is were my great grandad used to be based and there is in fact a b1 that was saved from the scrap yard that used to live at Colwick sheds it's number is 61264 and it now lives at Ruddington GCR great video as always Sam👍
Nice my friend I'm close on getting my n scale track. I will show it soon. Anyway ur the best and let me know what train I should get next. Keep being awesome my train friend.
That sounds very exciting - good luck with the N scale!! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
48440 - Official name is Robbie. Robbie Coal Train.
As a heads up locomotive in the uncouple phase is red
Hey Sam, terrific graphics of what!? How about the SDJR route out of Bath Green Park ? Regards Terry
The last time I played a train simulation game was Southern Belle on the Sinclair Spectrum 48k, it was awful put me off simulations for life.
We all make mistakes. Should have uncoupled the front wagon from the 8F's tender. In any case, instead of main line scenarios, you ought to try a preserved railway one. Like driving Odney or Dinmore Manor on the West Somerset Railway, which I gave you the idea of before. Try driving an engine of God's Wonderful Railway status on the WSR. You might get better results.
Thank you Kelly, yes that's very true! What about my sneeze? It's around 2 mins in, thought you'd like that ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I’m shocked nobody has mentioned eight freight blues.
Are there going to be more train simulator videos on the channel? I do enjoy watching them, especially after a long day at school.
You did better than I would’ve done. Simulations are good, but my experience has always been that the controls on the computer aren’t great, apart from time lapse issues, there are less informative information in the commands. Not sure that ‘ consist’ is an English term. But if you enjoy the game , then good for you. Have a good time. 😇😎
I second that emotion.
Or Double header it, if you will.
Were there no lights what so ever in locomotives before electric lamps introduction?
I suspect that you might be able to use fireplace door to illuminate cab in worst case scenario but surely there'd be a lamp or few around cab oil ones or something.
Sam just needs practice i suppose but hey decent for fan made map (even if rather redundant props - depending on when this was it could've just been result of rebuilding offcourse)
I like to mod the layouts, its pretty hard in train simulator but trainz is a bit easier.
Hey, train Sim world 3 are adding a second steam rout
That sounds awesome - maybe I should try it!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
man Beeching did nottingham a nasty one by removing Victoria Street station that looked like a beautiful station also Sam the london road high level station is sadly gone along with much of the arches i believe again due to the beeching cuts.
Nottingham was one of the cities that really got f'd over by beeching's cuts but not as bad as it could have been! had Beeching left the GCML intact Nottingham may actually have turn into an entirely different beast by the 21st century.
most of all nottinghamshire was known as a huge coal mining shire which maggie thatcher saw the end of in the 70's and 80's
Sam's nice video by the way thats a b1 not a black five nice driving by the way like the 8f
All that effort, and then you fail for clicking the wrong button. Lol that was funny. I have had Train Simulator in my Steam library for years. But I never really got into it. Mainly because I played other PC games. I have a few dlc packs for it now. So I might give it another go. How hard can it be lol?
Sam the Passenger Train you called a Black Five is a Thompson B1. Sorry if i sound rude
I love these videos
You should try driving the Bossman Games Black 5, a very good and a realistic locomotive if you are into that
Hi Sam, Phil from New Zealand, ready love your videos, look forward as to whats coming next, but for now, are you able to disclose the train sim you use, it looks really cool.Thanks
Interesting video here Sam, it’s good that you can still have fun on train simulator and dare I say it you will be able to download a whole range of content, unfortunately for me the main source of additional content for the train simulator that I sometimes which that source is UKtrainsim is being shut down in the not too distant future which is bad because it will lose around 2 decades worth of content, some content is bring saved but more will be lost.
Thanks a lot David - yeah I do still find this fun!! Ahh that's a real shame isn't it? Hopefully this stuff will still be available from elswhere! :(
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains Currently a small amount of content has been saved and re uploaded to alternative sites but unfortunately the reality of this is the vast majority of it will be lost and another thing that is bad about it is it’s mainly UK content, this situation is made worse because the main bulk of content on there is for the old Microsoft train simulator which has already had a lot of content lost to time, the site shouldn’t be being shut down at all especially as open rails which is a modern front for the old MSTS is able to be used and still being developed.
Gamer sam
Do Thomas and friends on train simulator
I used to have the game but I don’t have it anymore because of the disc space
Great video Thanks. Can you provide the details of the train simulator you are using? Also the computer so we can do a guestimation of how it will work on our computers.
99.99% 👍👍Podium for sure ! ! !
Think it’ll be Nottingham/Grantham canal, not the River Trent. From a Gran Turismo driver, way too many controls! Enjoyed the change from your other stuff though. V good!
Loved it. I'll write a story about it. Coughs and sneezes spread diseases. Bless you.
hahaha thank you!! I'd love to see that story :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hey Sam, love the return of train sim, are you going to try train sim world 3. Some of the routes are brilliant
Good fun, yes please to some more 😁
Have the firebox open in the tunnels...🤔
haha not a good idea ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hey Sam! I’m thinking of starting a model railway and I’m into modern image. Do you recommend any locos under £150?
Could you try the Keighley and worth valley railway with the ivatt 2mt tank
not black five but a B1!
I just got off a LMS black 5 at the North York Moors Railway 😄
Ooh that's awesome - hope you had a great time!! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Where is the 552 class?????
You weren't helped by the fact the scenarios in Netherfield are poorly made and frequently require dangerous driving to complete successfully.
You uncoupled the wrong end of the train as well. That sort of thing is why I save before any uncoupling instruction.
Ahh really?? At least it's not just me then! Yes I will be saving next time, haha!!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Which train sim is this? You might consider running some North American steam some time. More of this please.
A good Train Simulator Sam 🙂🚂🚂🚂
Where is the 552 class
Train Simulator has recently gotten a new update
you really need to try out train sim world 3 especially if you are going to do more of these type of videos.
I dislike 'sim' games as they always feel like 'unpaid work' to me lol !
Ah Well! you did done good anyway..
mystery engine is b1
You keep calling the B1 a Black Five...
Why is your room dark?
Edit: damn autocorrect.
haha I don't know - I've just always filmed train sim like that!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains Bit concerned about you squinting to start. Hope that was just adjusting to the dark, but if you have glasses, bite the bullet boy and wear em with pride. Stuff the comments you'll get.
Mind you, took me fifteen years to go public with my goggles,so I certainly can't talk!
Hey! I live there!
excellent video more please
Thanks Geoff - more on the way soon! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hi 31:07
What about your gaming channel?
Put the new train simulator videos on the gaming channel.
BTW I love your videos so much I've watched you for more then half my life.
That's amazing sam
Thanks Justin! :D
