I've just discovered your Route Learning videos. They are actually very helpful to me and I like your clear and to-the-point commentary. Sometimes you are giving some extra information about the route or the scenery. I think that makes driving the route even more interesting. You are doing a good job, my thumbs are up! Keep on going! Now I have two questions: 1. Do you know how I can change the driver's point of view or the FOV? 2. At 11:15 you see a speed limit board with 45, and 75 below it, separated by a horizontal line. What is the meaning of this? (sorry this is actually in your previous video, I posted this at the wrong vid.)
Harmen Bosma Thank you for your feedback :) I have plenty more videos coming in the future! In response to your questions: 1. To change the FOV, right-click the game in your Steam library and then click 'properties'. In this menu, click the button which says 'set launch options...' and then type the following into the text box ' -SetFOV=85 ' but without the apostrophes. You can change this number to one that suits you but I have mine set to 85. Click 'OK' and then start the game and it should be done. 2. The dual speed limit represents different speed limits for different train types. In this case, the 45mph limit is for freight trains and the 75mph limit is for passenger trains. The lower speed is always at the top.
Interesting as always, do you have the new Class 415 '4EPB' yet and if so, any plans to use it for one of these videos? It's a wonderful model that is great to drive.
simonmd2000 Thanks for the comment Simon. I don't yet have the 4EPB but I'm hoping to be able to buy it next month on payday :) .. I am then planning to do a London Bridge to Victoria via the outer circle journey in it for a video.
simonmd2000 I would like to do this in the late 80s for either blue/grey or Network South East with Class 421s, 423s and 455s as AI :) I haven't covered the outer circle journey yet, I was waiting for a new train to come along.
This another one of your amazing works of Train Simulator arts. I remember your 421 video. Good work
TSguy0100 Thank you :) I'm ultimately aiming to cover every route in both directions.. It will take some time but I'm hoping to slowly get there.

PTGRail Many thanks for your quick reply.
Harmen Bosma No problem. I will always do my best to engage with my viewers and help in any way that I can :)
Nice vid, thanks for sharing, always enjoy!

Excellent idea! Maybe worth waiting for the summer sale. Don't forget to get the classic blue/grey and blue liveries from DPS when you get it.

PTGRail Sounds perfect, looking forward to it.
PTGRail Swale is the least used station in Kent
How can I get this map
+Oliver Cooksey If you have the London to Faversham route then you can purchase the Sheerness Branch extension on Steam :)
The scenery either side of the tracks is way, way not at all accurate compared to the real thing, (from the Isle of Sheppey here) :-)
***** Haha, I know there's some inaccuracies in quite a few routes! But some seem more accurate than others. :)
