Squirrel did you get for free

[@TheOwenMajor]

Doesn't this violate lottery laws? At least in Canada, you have to be a non profit organization to run these things.

[@sammy4282]

@@TheOwenMajor Does anyone care haha?

[@annasmith1826]

Squirrel can you drive this train all the way from London to Brighton or they are just short segments?

[@ScoobsGaming]

Entered! Fingers crossed!! Would be a dream come true.

"The south of England, one of the most scenic areas of the country" *Plays a scenario in foggy rain*

[@thelastpilot4582]

Usually they these reviewers do the run in the dark at night. This always amazes me.

[@Early2000sPs2games]

U mean dorset, somerset, Devon?

[@josephgriffiths3547]

Inaccurate simulation, southern trains are never on time.

[@bodoing2001]

Lewes to Brighton is not that bad to be fair.

[@williamgillard4108]

Agreed souther n trains are NEVER on time.

[@williamgillard4108]

@A real bisexual petrol-headyes i do know what signals are but they according to statistics i found account to only 27% of all delays on the uk railway.

[@ThePippin89]

I designed the suspension system for the 377. Amazing to see it in a simulator so many years later!

[@konarider443]

As someone who used to commute to Brighton daily from Seaford, I can say this is very VERY well recreated! Consider me impressed!

[@dean2930]

30seconds early. Has no southern rail commuter ever witnessed 😂

[@PlaneBoy2520]

Dean Kerwin meanwhile Amtrak is currently...... *21 hours late*

[@FLAMEalan]

Surprisingly it has been on time once for me

[@PlaneBoy2520]

NoobyGamez it’s been a few hours late every time I’ve taken long distance Amtrak, but I didn’t really mind, you’re usually not taking a long distance Amtrak train because it’s the fastest mode of transport, you’re taking it for the journey and the experience.

[@FLAMEalan]

Planeboy 2520 I take a short distance journey every day on the south western railway (40 minutes journey for me) Every week there is a delay and sometimes roughly 1 hr delay But because of the derailment last week I couldn’t even get to my college so ended up taking coaches for the rest of the week But I guess the derailment wasn’t their fault tho Sorry my English is so crap rn, trying to type this whilst on train sim 2020

[@g0737]

Just so you know the Class 66 is still very much used in the UK

[@GWRProductions-kg9pt]

still used on 6B13, 33, 47 & 55 to Robeston & both the scrap, pre rolled steel coils & tin plated steel coils to & from Trostre

[@weeney56]

Yea it really is

[@sbrw4316]

isnt the class 66 a american train

[@williamgillard4108]

No

[@Raygun-xb2st]

William Gillard was built in the US

[@Adam-zg7tw]

You can set the destination using the screen on the left, theres a clickable option on the bottom right which will give you a list of stations and you can choose using the options on the bottom of the screen. Also the route only goes as far as Eastbourne.

[@TheChiefBeef666]

Squirrel you can activate the AWS in the 377 using the buttons by the door at the top, (the button is called AWS isolation) in the other half of the cab. Also the screens on the right work i think if you press on the door.

[@ThomasGrillo]

Very enjoyable ride. I remember taking one of those trains, from London, down to Woking, and back, when I performed in the UK, back in 2011. They're really making this sim look fantastic! Thanks for sharing.

[@Haydn02]

The sounds are the thing that astounded me the most there

[@jamesbrownization]

It's a little surreal watching this! I used to commute on this line from Bexhill (which is towards Hastings), and the scenery is spot on. Falmer is the main stop for the University of Sussex and the Amex Football Stadium home to Brighton & Hove Albion, so it becomes VERY busy at times! Edit: There's also a great pub right next to London Road Station!

[@LambdaCat57]

I Have to take these trains everyday, i don't need a simulation reminding me xD Awesome vid either way!

[@AT_Lemongrab]

I used to live in Brighton but moved to France. I loved watching this some much, brought back some many great memories from Uni.

[@sidhu704]

It's so weird seeing this on here, I take this train on the daily!

[@kyran978]

This is awesome, like fully awesome, the sounds and even the scenery despite it chucking down with rain is incredible

[@raydleemsc]

Took me back to my polytechnic days at Brighton. Mostly at the Moulscoomb campus for computer sciences - if you looked east (left) off of the bridge, you'd see the side of the huge church in the middle of the Brighton valley.

[@strains3551]

Brilliant , a route to Eastbourne and Hastings on a train sim at last!

[@g0737]

Congratulations on 700K Squirrel, you absolutely deserve it, and your getting close to 1 million! Keep up the amazing work

[@notcarrotnose258]

I love following along your route on google earth, that's one hell of a bridge

[@NextSound170]

It’s just grand, second most popular request on the DTG forums, after GWE (GWR) and put into action, great work

[@kibkatara1204]

Nice to see some more local, familiar train lines.

[@JellyScrub]

The Class 377 gives me a nostalgia hit. It was in Train Simulator 2013 which was my first Train Sim

[@samuel9272]

This route from Lewes to Brighton is one of my favourites as it's a short one but it allows me to go through a process of shutting down the cab i was just in set the route, set the tail lights, isolate the AWS, DSD, DRA and Vigilance the to go and set up the other cab for the service

[@Thorpedo619]

I make this commute from Polegate every day I work :) really nice to see this part of the country in a simulator

[@kslide1663]

I live on this line at Hastings, I’m so glad this is a dlc

[@gunpowderboardgames]

I take this journey on a regular basis. This sim is very accurate and has amazing detail.

[@Chewscore]

The Class 377’s brake are epic!

[@josho1994]

Love the look of this DLC, will have to check out.

[@ecoops123]

Hello world... It's too dark and raing today in Hastings ☹

Taking this trip in reverse on Saturday morning 👍👍

[@Borgscan]

Thanks for the video, Squirrel. :)

[@DJ_K666]

Really accurate depiction there. Only inaccuracies I found were the platform at Moulsecoomb is too wide. The ramp is full width and the platform a lot narrower than that. Otherwise pretty accurate, especially the rain lol

[@lucieclark7508]

I'm getting it for Christmas! I'm so excited! Btw I ride them trains nearly every day.

[@HB45175]

Man that is a depressing workstation for the traindrivers having to look out of that tiny window

[@TrendingPendingVideos]

I find it quite cosy. It also reduces motion sickness or whatever

[@DopeyDalek]

Nice video. I went to uni in University of Sussex so travelled from Falmer to Brighton very frequently.

[@KrostGaming]

wow the cockpit actually looks really cozy :p

[@rexsdoggogames7292]

The AWS is on the far right hand side of the cab on a panel

[@ds_e5202]

4:40 the AWS is isolated, control's are on the second-man's side of the cab

[@paulcurran2977]

Also just noticed that on the IDU (Intelligent Display Unit) it is showing a left hand door release (red squares in the coaches) with a right hand door release actually given. Paul

[@thematts0743]

Yo hey squirrel you have made so many good videos over the years and you have inspired me to make great videos just like you thanks for being one of my favourite youtubers in the world!

[@user_harddrive]

Future DLCs: -workers/engineers who continously state that the tracks are dangerous, causing delays -suicidal citizens who jump infront of trains, causing delays -light weather; snow which covers the tracks, causing delays -removing 3/4 of staff, causing delays

[@NextSound170]

Yeah, it is nice but glad for the TS2020 with AP pack where the full Brighton Mainline is since forever, the first full route for Train Sim

[@tonyhughes2686]

Fantastic loved it

I can’t believe it’s here!!!

[@virtualmetrodriver9153]

[@Josh_Wright]

Been dying for a video on this game again

[@mrJackstar9]

As a comen commuter of this line (normally falmer and back) I have to say that the accuracy is extremely good

[@jamieprescott100]

Amazing graphics. Makes train simulator look like a cartoon!

[@Scottish_Transport_Explorer]

Yeah but train sim classic is good too

[@misterinadequate3518]

Happy New Years - you ok? Missed your videos lately.

[@ds_e5202]

Also the screen on the left is clickable, the PIS button in bottom left hand corner. and that button controlls the destination board

[@BusesinLondon345]

With Southern, Thameslink and Southeastern, it’s either delays, cancellations or line closures :)

[@bentyson4322]

Don’t know why Hastings is mentioned when the route only goes to Eastbourne...

[@frostynips2549]

Ben Tyson I was thinking the same thing my local station is rye and I commute to ore 3 times a week I’m kinda sad really I would 100% buy it if it went all the way. Would be even better if it had the southern Diesel trains from Eastbourne to ashford

[@AshHill07]

Well he also questions multiple times if a Mordern UK route is fitted with AWS, when the entire UK rail network is required to be fitted with it since the 90's ...

[@robdezerbisbluearmy2999]

Because the train goes to Eastbourne and there is a branch just Dow from Eastbourne that goes to Hastings and ashford

[@h4rdbr3xit10]

@@robdezerbisbluearmy2999 Yeah, but the Game only takes you as far as Eastbourne

[@Robbinsman_Transport]

My local station is bexhill. I would love to see the extension to ore

[@DentalHygieneTipsUk]

Also you can set the destination, on the screen on the left showing the cars, click P.I.S and you can select the destination.

[@insertnamehere5660]

Out of Brighton, west takes you as far as Southampton Central with branches to Portsmouth, Bognor Regis, Littlehampton and at the Littlehampton junction it can take you up to London via Horsham, going straight will take you to Milton Keynes/London stations and going east will take you as far as Ashford international via Eastbourne with the branch to seaford

[@Goodman-4525]

Believe me "picturesque"is not on my mind right now lol

[@graythewolf6096]

Class 66 were likely built in La Grange, IL. If not, some other area in North America. I'm curious if EMD is going to make a British version of their American Locomotive called the "F125 Spirit" as a competitor to the class 68 and replace their Class 67 & 66 locomotives.

[@lyndsaysmith]

its great to see TSW back again nice route too

[@Coyston.]

i’ve done this route so many times irl before and it’s so weird to see it in decent detail in a game

[@LoganKT]

To operate the destination board you go on the screen it will show more show destination clear destination and is called PIS ( PASSENGER INFORMATION SYSTEM)

[@ronaldozgaming2365]

Nice review

[@HarryMarriott]

You can do the dot matrix display. It is the screen on the left and on of the buttons at the bottom. Edit: By the way you missed the Amex Stadium at Falmer

[@irishsixtysixfanGbrf66739]

To set the destination board go to the screen on the left hand side and select pis and scroll down to the destination in the alphabetical menu and click confirm and pis again

[@thelastpilot4582]

Pity they run this rout through to Hastings but forgot to lay the track beyond Eastbourne.Nice peripherals shame nothing works with TSW. They opted for the trains that have been converted to a Keyboard and mouse!!! I went to Inverness on a train pulled by Class 47's I had a look in the cab but they were the pre mod only had levers and pedals.

[@netcald991]

Entered the competition already. Fingers crossed

[@ReNewReViews1]

Dylan it’s not a competition like that, it’s a skill based game. Extremely hard to win!

[@derruhriofficial]

The westbound line from Brighton actually goes to Southampton Central (not Plymouth) via Chichester and Arundel (been on it a few times a few years ago when I lived in Poole, Dorset).

[@gordonphillips7229]

No, Arundel is on the Littlehampton to Crawley line.

[@derruhriofficial]

Gordon Phillips Yep, you’re right, the line towards Arundel turns off at Arundel Jcn, Arundel Station then is the first one down the Arun Valley Line towards Horsham and Crawley which joins the Brighton Main Line at Three Bridges. To get to Arundel from the West Coastway Line one must change trains at Ford, which is what I didn’t remember...

[@paulcurran2977]

Driven all the way with red lights to the front tut tut lol, In the real thing if you hit the emergency stop button then the pick up shoes will raise and in order to get them back down you press what is shown as MCB close, again on the real thing the MCB close and MCB open buttons are actually 'shoes down' and 'shoes up' Paul

[@00acleland]

Only on the 6 and 7 series. The shoes don't raise on the older units, which this is.

[@hectorchittenden9749]

If you go west from Brighton, you go to Southampton, then either Portsmouth or Weymouth. To get to Plymouth, you go Brighton, Salisbury, Westbury, Taunton, Exeter, and then Plymouth.

[@gordonphillips7229]

Portsmouth is in between Brighton and Southampton! Can you not read a simple map?

[@anthonypecoraro5472]

The route goes to Eastbourne, not Hastings. You can manually change the destination displays with the screen on the left.

[@tomgaming3950]

Thats crazy im from eastbourne and its fairly accurate

[@adzz18]

[@irishsixtysixfanGbrf66739]

I find if your running at a speed above 70mph brake down your speed by 10 mph at 1mile and then decrease at 0.9 0.8 miles till you can get your speed below 30 mphs this works on GWR line as you can come in at 25mphs tees valley its 15mph as some of the stations are very short with the 3 car 101s
