  • In this episode of the route learning series, we take a look at the Just Trains Midland Main Line route between Sheffield in the north and Leicester in the south, where this route currently ends in TS. We follow the timetable of train 1C22, the 07:46 departure from Sheffield to London St Pancras, calling at Chesterfield, Derby, Long Easton, East Midlands Parkway, Loughborough, and Leicester. The train I'm using for the journey is an East Midlands Trains livery HSP utilising the Armstrong Powerhouse VP185 HST Enhancement Pack.

    Leicester to Bedford can really only be easily connected if the same origin points are used. It might be possible to take the two existing origin points for each station and build the path between those to force it to fit, but if the proper layout of the route would force Bedford or Leicester to have a different origin point, it will be difficult to connect the two. A problem with having different developers. The only real fix is for JT to do its own extension all the way to London. Which might not be a bad idea as some have commented the quality of the London to Bedford is sub-par and JT is getting better at routes, as you're noted this is possibly the best network to date.

I’d like to ask you, if I may, about how do you prepare yourself for each route so that you know every upcoming speed limit, gradient, distances from signals to stations… do you have official documentation or similar? You put so much hard work into it and it shows!! Thanks!!!

    I'm curious about how you made it: do you do your commentary live or do you add that onto the simulator videos after?
    I've done a couple of route learning videos myself and I usually voice over video content; partially because I stream the game to my iMac which complicates live recording.

    Hi. I'm from the US...when it comes to gradients what does 1 in 100, etc refer to?

    • @PTGRail
      @PTGRail  3 роки тому +1

      A 1 in 100 grade would be the equivalent to a 1% grade in US terms. The measurement is how many feet you are climbing over what distance - so for a 1 in 100 grade, you climb 1 foot in altitude for every 100 feet you travel forwards. That would roughly equate to climbing 53 feet every mile you travel.

  • @Frostie3672
    @Frostie3672 3 роки тому

    Having researched how to drive the hst as realistic as possible in this sim here's how to use the throttle when pulling away & how to brake.
    Now this procedure can vary between TOC's but the general consensus is to put power into notch 1, wait for the amps to start building then straight into notch 3, wait for amps to settle then into notch 4, again wait for the amps to settle & into notch 5 which you should be in by around 10-15 mph.
    Obviously depending on whether your an incline or have a slow speed limit shortly after moving off or adverse weather dictates whether you go above notch 3 etc or how quickly you increase the power.
    When taking the power off you should never go straight into the idle position instead you go into notch 1 & wait for the amps to reduce, takes about 5 seconds & then you can idle the power.
    As for braking, step 3 is the norm with step 4 braking used intermittently to reduce speed quicker if needed.
    Found all this info on a rail forum when someone asked real HST drivers how to correctly drive the locomotive.

    • @hexagon7895
      @hexagon7895 3 роки тому +2

      Very variable, even between drivers within one TOC. I prefer the more traditional technique - start in 3, then 4, then 5 applying power as each stage of engine rev increase catches up. That way you get the power to build roughly as the load regulator catches up and you get the best acceleration.
      As for braking, Step 3/4 is typical for station stops but when running at 125 there are times where a double yellow means straight to Notch 5 or 6, no mucking about to kill that speed. The most important thing is always to kill the speed early and not to be too light on the brakes initially and have to keep increasing it at lower speeds to get stopped.
      The MML was quite generously set out when it was still 110 max, you rarely needed more than Step 4 anywhere if at all. Since the increase to up to 125mph running there are some sections where particularly in poor weather an initial splash of at least Step 5 to kill off the extra speed is advisable at times when you get those cautionary aspects. Again it varies, some drivers like to just go Step 4 almost to a stand, I prefer to use a higher notch of brake if I deem it necessary then gradually step down the braking and ease off to a full release if I can just before coming to a stand at a red, adhering to the rule of 15 max over the 'magnets', even though that often means you need to release, roll and then reapply the brake at times so you don't stop too short.
      Was simpler when you could just taxi on up to the sticks without worrying about getting the speed down to 15 over the ramps and could just make a smooth progressive approach.

      Have you ever driven the HST in this sim with the Armstrong powerhouse enhancement pack, I'm wondering just how accurate the physics are & you're probably the ideal person to ask.
