I’m a freight train conductor myself, it’s insane how accurate the gameplay is to real life.
It's amazing how far these sims have come in the last 10 years, so realistic & getting better in each iteration!
be funy if they implement underpowered trains and banner test
This game is so pretty. For true to life train physics in a railroad simulator, check out Run8. It’s open world sandbox and multiplayer as well. Work road trains, locals, industry switchers or Amtrak.
That's laughable especially the part where you say you're a Conductor, what are you talking about this game is Nowhere near Accurate to real life. There is so much missing from being Real in game. Guess you didn't look hard enough at the MFD wrong locations of tools and missing icons ha-ha but it's Insane how Accurate it is tho as you say Conductor, yeah OK I believe that!
@@user-yn8do4px8e To clarify, riding conductor in the game. Not in real life. If you watch any of my videos I talk openly about what I really do.
As a kid I was always so amazed about trains. Growing up I stopped caring as much but watching this video has made me want to re-explore why I loved trains so much as a child.
They really need to add radio affects in the cab and be able to hear defect detectors as well. That would be cool.
Yep i agree
Yeah and like they had radio chatter in Sand Patch Grade.
@jenniferadams7582 yea that was so good
Want radio effects, this is what I did or on your cellphone there should be an audio record icon go to your computer or TV and start the UA-cam app and look up conductor and engineer radio chatter between dispatch engineers and conductors and record it to your phone, record as much as you can some videos are longer than others find the one's with lot's of chatter time back and forth and when you finish if you have an blue tooth audio speaker pair it to your phone or computer and run the audio recordings while you're operating your train keep the speaker right in front of your computer or TV while operating your train and the effect will be like it's coming from the coms receiver.
@@cruzgarcia6173 That's a good idea! I usually have something (usually asmr stuff or white noise) playing on loop in background while train simming so yeah will have to try that!
I’ve always loved trains. I loved trains before what I do now … fly airplanes.
If you like trains why not pursue a career as a train engineer?
@@slayer7950 … I’m too old. I’m in my “sunset years”, but I found both career paths equally exciting. I became enthralled with railroading right at the close of the steam (“Big Boy”) era, and aviation just as the Lockheed Super Constellation “flew into the sunset.”
This era was when America was at its peak, and seemingly could do no wrong. At least, technologically.
@@flitetymI enjoy the idea of you flying a plane and looking down thinking: “oh cool a train! I like trains!” At the same time the operator of the train is looking up and sees you flying overhead and thinks: “A plane! How cool!” Both of you have awesome careers that still make me a 30 year old man stop and watch.
Would u like a pat on the back?..
I want to fly airplanes if my dream job doesn’t work
UP had a track about 100 yards behind my house in the foot hills of Mt. Shasta. It was amazing seeing the 300+ car consists go by during the summer.
Thats so cool!
It really was. They usually had three locomotives in the middle. Also the safety videos UP showed us as kids were no joke.
Crazy watching that pass through Santa Clarita! The route is accurate, minus the big buildings. But that was cool to watch!
You should try Run 8. It is a not very well-known train simulator that real railroaders herald as having the best physics for north American freight trains of any train sim. It puts TSW to shame. It has pretty bad graphics, but the base game gives you like 400 miles of track of the Mojave Subdivision from Bakersfield to Barstow, and the Needles Subdivision from Barstow to Needles. the other routes you can be can be seamlessly connected to each other if they are part of the same region. It is multiplayer compatible with a small but dedicated community and is extremely open world. You can run whatever you want to wherever you want. I strongly recommend checking it out.
"All you had to do is follow the dam train, CJ!"
Lol!!!
Men I absolutely love the cinematic camera especially with heavy freight trains like this. It sounds so deam awesome
I loved TSW3 havent played 4 yet.
I wanted to work for UP for years, never on the train itself but on the rails and switches and such. The guys behind the scenes who make sure the engineers can keep on running down them rails.
Thanks for posting these videos of the antelope valley lines. My son is obsessed with trains, and we live in the area within the game in real life, so his little mind is BLOWN.
Haha thats amazing!! Glad yall enjoyed it. Hopefully he get to play it himself sometime
I play alot of American truck sim. But watching you play this game makes me want to get into it as well. Great video
Wow well thanks alot! I been trying to play more ats
me to i watch you because im getting tsw4 and you help me learn ty.
Just got tsw4 deluxe on sale on ps5. Loving photo mode. While the finer things like focus are above my skill set, just being able to pause and line up shot is amazing!
Hi Blu, that consist is EPIC. Thanks for sharing, love your channel.
I used to live in the Antelope Valley as well as Santa Clarita. It did capture the Vincent (Hill) Metrolink station, the Saugus Station, and possible the Newhall station. It also had the water treatment where the curve is and the old Thatcher glass plant and the Newhall pass tunnel. The trackage, freeway overpasses in the Sylmar area was fairly accurate. Now for the misses, Plant 42 and the Lockheed Skunk Works just north of Palmdale, the Palmdale Metrolink station, the tunnels in Soledad Canyon between Vincent and Santa Clarita. Maybe they are in there and just weren't included in your video,.
And Crazy Otto's haha
Yea I noticed the base wasnt included , wonder if that's on purpose , or they just didnt want to design that big of a building for plant 42 , they also missed the Carl's jr on sierra and Avenue J
I remember waiting for trains at the avenue P and Sierra hwy crossing during my lunch runs in early 2000s. Trains were long and made me late getting back to work.
That was epic thanks for the ride along.
Glad you enjoyed it
Blu, have you been to Altoona? It's pretty sweet the scenery is great and it's fairly busy. I've been there a few times That grade crossing you mentioned out of Altoona is the Brickyard which is a sweet spot for getting trackside pictures. Cresson just after the tunnels is another cool spot and they do crew changes there and RJ Corman work out of there also. There are also hotel at the tunnels and in Cresson. Sorry for the lengthy comment.
Great Video! On sale at steam today so I was looking to see what its all about. Being a freight nut, this was perfect.
Love your videos, thanks for all your work!
I watched your video from the beginning to the absolute end. Without fast-forwarding it. I just left it alone and let it play. What a remarkable video you did here. Can you please do another video with some different locomotives maybe sd40 or SD 50s that would be awesome or some GP40s GP38s Dash 8 C- 40
not into trains and this came on while working counting the gritters in and out for 0200 gritting runs over the South West of England
and i actually started to watch it
well edited and chilled to watch!
clicked subscribed
If only they really gave you this much power in real life lol that train on my district were getting two locos max and crawling up hills. This game is insanely accurate. Love the gameplay.
That was very fun to watch, thanks! I was cringing there at the end signal! 😅 I look forward to upgrading to TSW4, but have to wait until after christmas in case santa brings it for me.
Well hope santa does
Great post! Thank you for sharing. My thing is flight sim. I've got a hotrodded 'puter with P3D v5 and a bunch of A2A aircraft. Train simulation has always interested me. Used to read Model Railroader back in the day, and always wondered when they'd come out with a railroading sim for the home PC. I've seen a number of UA-cam videos on the topic, but this one is the first one that makes me think about actually buying the sim and running it on my machine. I'll have to watch a couple more of your videos first. Keep on rockin'.
I really appreciate that. I am a flight simmer also. Hopefully u fins what you are looking for in a train sim. There are a few to choose from
It's nice they now allow the mix of power opposed to just being able to run sd70s or the ac's only on one train. I haven't played this since the release of Cajon on TSW3 but after seeing this video I know what I'm buying next.
This is fascinating. I'm a flight sim guy. I've a fairly elaborate flight sim pit for DCS. Knew of racing sims, just discovered train and truck sims. Soo cool. But I've much to learn about flying. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy... maybe we'll come across one another in the virtual sim world some day when all this stuff gets merged in the Matrix LOL 🤓
When all this gets merged ill be there day 1
@@BluGames Right! See ya there Sir 👍
Learned more on this than pretty much any other video good on u bro
Wow really!? Glad i could help
Looked for something interesting to watch while I moked a bowl and ended up watching this. Dope stuff man 😂
I enjoyed the video, especially the scenic shots. How about a video telling Nubees how to get those shots.
I had a train once on the UP that was 22,000 tons, that was the record for the cajon pass at the time. Really Wish the physics were as good as the graphics with this game.
Great content and really enjoyed your enthusiasm, Subscribed and Hi from UK
U opened my eyes to freight trains so hard holy shit
finally a good video .. i need more of this .. specially this one
Thanks so much that means alot
I hate playing this game but I love watching someone else plays it. I don't know wtf is wronng with me. anyways, great video brother👍
Hahahaah. Well im honored u chose watch me lol
Hey blue love the vids been watching since old infinite flight days keep up the good work
Wow thank you very much
looks fun. I may try this out.
Y'know, you should do a big 8-10 locomotive lashup on Sand Patch Grade with this train spawning ability.
I should
Usually the relief Crew would be waiting at that location as soon as you get off they would hop in so I doubt the train would be sitting long.
They were stuck in traffic
Eyyy! I grew up in Lancaster, CA. 👍
Haha cool!
I am a goblin and I like trains because they are cool
🚆 ❤ 😎
Best TSW UA-camr yet..
I find the realism of the trains very good.
We can ser some details but it's the four version .....and the landscape can be ameliorared.
I hope I get this for Christmas more now:D
Great video thank you
Thank YOU
nice sim! i love freight trains, i plaing tsw4 from 1 month, there are a lot of bugs!
I was hoping you to do this route!
Yesss i know i have been wanting to
I was born in the Antelope Valley. Lived there for 30+ years.
Sheesh wow. Well how does this compare?
@BluGames honestly, it's not bad. It's not an accurate, but there are enough building to where it triggers my brain to know exactly where you are. Where first part of the long straight, road to the right is Sierra Hwy, or El Camino Sierra. It's been around since the early 1800s as a wagon trail for the gold rush Era. It also signifies the division of the east and west side of lancaster. On that same straight there is a gas station on the right. That's Ave M or "Columbia way" after the space shuttle. To the left in the same area would be skunkworks, Northrop Grumman and various others, housing the B52 and B2. Lancaster has a rich history of aviation.
Gotta come do some Run8 Videos on the HighGreen server in the south east. Lots of big heavy trains to run
Excellent video, seems like you had your handful at times. The F7 timetables are darn near impossible have you had any luck?
I have had no luck on the grade with the f7 lol
I jus downloaded it 2 days ago and it’s fun asf ngl 😂😂😂good gameplay bro how do u get to spawn ur trains tho im on xbox
i like his videos
I love your content, would you be able to do a video on British freight so we can see your opinions on how we operate it over here
Great idea
I want the run from Barstow to Bakersfield....through the Tehachapi Loop!
Me too
I live very close to the Tehachapi Loop and can drive there in about 10 minutes from my house. I don't own TS4, but would buy it instantly if it had that route. @@BluGames
They have it on train simulator classic.
And run 8
I like to play with my own spawned in trains in timetable mode because free roam feels a lot more empty
Agreed
Yes sameee
Just subscribed, you're videos are superb . 👍
Thank you so much
The Karen at 30:54 🤣 Freights aren’t supposed to be on this line!!! 🤣
Hahahahaahha
You would have to do a locomotive air brake test to confirm the brakes work on the locomotive consists. 3 sets and 3 releases
Ok sounds good
Do you need to get a certain edition to get the freight trains?
might be a stupid question but what dlc does all of the freight trains you showed in the video come with? bought the antelope valley dlc and it only came with two passenger trains
I love trains to bro 🤟💪🤝
The size of American trains is awesome but i much prefer the lines in Germany, much busier😅
Nice video.
Thanks!
I live on this route. and I can confirm this is a frieght and passenger line.
And I presume they run a lot of intermodal traffic on that line?
i like this route
Me too
@ 5:30 you said 6525 feet long, that is the number of the train you are in, as you can see @ 6:05 but other then that, good video :)
Nice
✌️
Why was there a guy selling hot dogs 🌭 @ a stand in the dessert? 😮 Who is buying hot dogs? There are no people there!!!😅
Lol
The most I've made was 273 cars, of which 18 were locos. I've done it on Cajon Pass, Antelope Valley, Sand Patch, and Horseshoe. I mostly do 170 to 190 fully loaded.
Sounds like a lot of walking back and forth to spawn in that long a train lol most I've done was a 33000 foot train in train sim classic but the game crashes weren't having it lol
imagine a logistic addon for flight simulator, euro truck 2, and tsw4 to bring all the simulators together :O
The most underrated UA-camr every
Love From India ❤
Love from texas
Have you been able to put a remote engine or two in the middle of your train? Say, four up front, two in the middle and three in the back and when you reach a steep pass. Put on two more at the front, one more in the middle and three more at the rear?
If not, or if it's not yet available to do so, would you as soon as you are able?
You probably wouldn't be allowed to use that many engines at one time. Those stack trains aren't really that heavy. You have DP on it, likely you would only need one DP and a head unit pulling. Depending on diesel unit ratings for territory. Before you knock off the independent you have to notch and get some amps as you slowly release it.
The gameplay is cool but oh man the amount railroads charge to ship stuff like this from A to B is wild
And yet these companies still make a profit somehow
@@BluGames I work for a Logistics company that helps companies with the railroads (UP, CN, KCS, BNSF, NS, CPRS, CSXT) I legit couldn't tell you how they are still making a profit after I see those numbers
Just had a quick question, picked this up in the steam sale( special edition bundle) but what I’m really looking for is freight. Love the game so far but having issues figuring out what dlc I need if I want freight wagons and loco’s. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. Have a good one !
I’ve been iffy on getting train sim world.. I’ve about to start phase 2 training on the locomotive engineer program for the Long Island Railroad and don’t want to confuse information haha. Maybe I can do other routes and not the Long Island railroad
Yeah, maybe drive passengers around for work, but then drive some freight for fun! Also congrats on engineer training!
Love your videos, I'm trying to get the Canadian Pacific locos you are spawning, but they are not in my list. What do I need to get them, the AC4400 Canadian?
Did u download the livery from the in game creators hub?
I kinda need advice is tsw2, 3, or 4 Better?
So on ps4 I can do the thing where I can spawn trains like you and free drive essentially?
How do you get your game to look so good? I have a pretty high end PC, and mine won't come close to this. It almost looks blurry for me. Appreciate the video!
Try run8 train sim similar operations but has multiplayer communities. But can spawn trains up to 250 units ( locomotives and cars) and has SoCal routes and east coast CSX routes that’s what I play. It’s about $50 usd for the base route pack. Run8 has defect detector sound effects along with wheel screeching. Player can also dispatch their trains and AI traffic
See the Shasta route on trains simulator, classic it has the mount Shasta yard and track like they To add the Mccloud line from Mount Shasta into Mccloud but they would have the Shasta on this one with the mast the yard going all the way in to Mccloud with the switchback then Frome. Mccloud do the interchange with BNSF then you can take the change the Klamath Falls on the BNSF side and they should have the Siskiyou subdivision the original line that went into Oregon before they rerouted the line in the Klamath Falls. It would just make the game so much more interesting having routes like that where you don’t have to go from the feather river Canyon exit that and then go into the next scenario, you should be able tostart off in Orville and go all the way to Portland
What pack do you need to get the US freight pack. I want to buy tws 4 but can not find the pack in the dlc.
How were you able to spawn freight trains I’m only able to spawn the passenger . Like do I have to get loco packs to be able to spawn these?
Great realism to this traim sim. That CP unit is numbered wrong though. These types of units are usually numbered from 8000 to 9800.
Good to know. But i have no idea how to. Change that. Sounds like a job for the devs.
i think i made this livery and idk anything about numbers, i'm not a huge geek to the last detail but i'm going to fix it rn then reupload it
i cannot change the number boards on the front, it's part of the model ,but the painted numbers are all fixed now
Don't worry it's cool, minor detail. I live in Canada. The rest of the unit is great, right down to the traction motor trucks. @@OmnikTWR
Oh 6525 is the unit # brother
Blu, how did you get that camera mode when you were at railroad crossing and when the train was creeping through the mountains (console)
Just press the 8 key(free cam) on keyboard and move your camera where ever u want. I dont know how to do it on controller
Ok
Can i do this on xbox? Im debating on getting the game if this is possible on my console or not
just got TSW on steam sale, I have spent 7 hours so far, just finished the 'journey' part for antelope valley. Which DLC do I need in order to get those freight trains ?
How do you take those rail fanning shorts, e.g 15:48 is awesome, almost like being there in person
One thing they need to fix is the crossings. It doesn't seem so accurate. But overall it's a good game
Hey Blu. I like this game a lot. I sure am glad you describe what is going on while you are driving. Oh also, I really like your amazon store with the control stuff. I do have a question about the cargo on your train. Do you have to really make sure that it is secured down so that it does not move?? But thanks again I really did enjoy your video.
No you dont have to make sure its secure. Train sim world doesnt simulated that. So its impossible for the containers to fall off lol
@@BluGames ok thanks again.
How did u get the Canadian Pacific locomotive?
What version do you have? Standard, deluxe edition or special edition?
The most expensive one
i work for BNSF and stack those intermodal boxes
Do you need BNSF sd70ce dlc to use union pacific heritage collection dlc???
hey are you using RailDriver in this video? Also any plans on making SimRail videos?
Thanks!
when a black player plays a Trainsim game it shows that you can establish yourself. Hats off.This is one of the best presentations of that game and this dlc.
What does white or black have to do with it??
That’s weird 1.6 miles is just shy of 8500’. I
Was hoping they would fix measurements like this like how when your going 60mph your supposed to be going a mile per minute
I’m debating on getting train sim world 4 can you get the 4014 and the 844 and a bunch of other steam engines and streamlines or you can only have what they give you
No.. only the routes and locomotives available in the store
@@BluGames ok so it’s not like train simulator classic where you have to go through steam to get them and dose your trains you have in the older games transfer over to the new one or do you have to buy them again
My only complaints with antelope valley is no switching whatsoever, and 3/4 two parter through freights are at night. Otherwise I really enjoy the route a lot I’ve never used spawned trains though
Yea theres only like 4 freights services and like u said. Mostly at night and northbound.. which is why i had to spawn my own train
@@BluGames yea the last run I did on A.V. Was the first time I saw the npc UP sd40-2 local and it was literally doing its own switching and all I could think is why? Why can’t they allow us to use the full route with sooo many industries you blow past but never get to use. The transition from LA-the hills-to that high speed long straight that reminds me of watching trains in New Mexico is really enjoyable
This is my first time seeing a train simulator. Everything looks correct in the cabin, but where is PTC?
No ptc.
