[@Rekuzan]

Prior to the opening of the Moffat tunnel, I'm guessing trains only had the option of going up to Cheyenne in order to get across the divide? Or was there also a rail line down the Albequer-Alberqeu, Alba...that place where Bugs Bunny should have taken a left turn...

[@michael_mooshy]

Tennessee Pass predates the Moffat Tunnel as a standard gauge line, and Marshall Pass predates Tennessee Pass as a narrow gauge line. Both were on the Denver & Rio Grande. And there were also lines north of the Union Pacific at Cheyenne, of course.

[@Ganja420]

i bought this game yesterday having no clue wasted 4 hours building a track for the lumber stuff only to find that im the worst track builder in the world lol i've been watching a lot of you and hyce and so im starting over tonight love these videos!

[@Crazyclay78YT]

wow i didnt know kan played brass instruments. ive been following the channel for years, you would think id know. ive played trombone for about 6 years now and i recently asked my band teacher if i could borrow a trumpet to practice on and i learned the Bb (technically c for trumpet) scale in about 60-90 min. the next day or two my trumpet player friend was having a hard time playing a song we started learning and i played it for him on my trombone and he was still getting it wrong so i pulled out the trumpet and asked him what the fingerings were, i can read treble clef from piano i just dont know the fingerings for each note, and he told me, then i played it on trumpet better than he could. if you want to call bs on that go for it but, we joke that he is musically dyslexic so you can take that as you will

The sand dust storm immediately reminded me of where I live. That's what we here call a brown out. Happens about once or twice a year.

[@DaysofKnight]

Weather needs to be updated so it doesn't clip through walls while you're inside the train or caboose. Makes it feel more realistic that way. Sound differences, too

[@bobcatt3003]

ive gotten into railroads online in the last couple months because of you guys and i bought a shay yesterday. all i have to say about it is hyce is right, its aucks. like it aint fast, it cant tow much, and it sooo itty bitty.

[@Lex_Illovici]

You should ask Hyce about superpower steam. It should make an interesting conversation lol. Yall talk about 2-8-0s and 4-4-0s, where's the 2-10-4s, 4-8-4s and 2-6-6-6s

[@theodoric4270]

Having bells in addition to other warning devices is not just an archaic thing that steam trains used to do. I take a commuter train to work, and it has a horn and a bell. It actually has two different bells: The one at the back of the last passenger car makes a high, electronic, beep-like tone as it pulls into the station in reverse. The one on the engine makes a more traditional bell-toll sound as it pulls into the station going forward. I'm pretty sure both sounds are electronically synthesized, even the one that sounds like a real bell, which leads me to believe that the bell sound has been valued even as trains have evolved. This still doesn't really answer the question of why there is a bell and a horn/whistle, but it shows that there is a good reason.

Latitude is like the rungs of a ladder. That's how I always remember it.

I remember it because of a commercial for Corona, showing a tropical beach and saying "change your latitude." You don't get to the tropics by changing your longitude. :)

[@joedingo7022]

On the note of air brakes and LOUD, air brake exhausts are a thing, and with good reason. The difference with and without is mind-boggling, it goes from ears-ringing to just a bit of a whoosh in the distance.

[@workable_z]

I wish they wouldn't spawn them. It doesn't use resources from previous industries. Also i miss the good rants that happen while it loads the train

[@rottenroads1982]

Ah, yes, Khan finally managed to post the same day as Hyce. Good, also, Hopefully the next locomotive is the Shay. Also, it’s funny to me, Khan’s Video is literally half as long as Hyce’s video.

[@jasontrucks9465]

Creative mode, thoughts? They could add a mode or setting to give infinite cash or spawn items for the large number of people that would love to use whatever train or car they want and build massive structures

[@Soken50]

Yup there should definitely be separate modes or commands for different play styles. Like the loading upgrades that Kan suggests could be a toggle between "quick" and "realistic" mode depending on whether you want a more casual game or realistic simulation experience.

[@scholaryoshi]

I would love to see you and Hyce do a watch/react/review of snow peircer.

[@adammullarkey4996]

20:45 Well, clearly the track maintenance works like that one Wallace and Gromit scene, where there's a guy sat on the front of the train with prefab track pieces laying them down on the ground in front of the train.

I actually understand the short rod faster speed argument lol. In automotive industry shorter stroke engines generally are happier at high rpm.

[@ducewags]

@Dae Smith The angle of the rod on the crank comes into play. A short rod will hit BDC faster then a long stroke. But is slower then the long stroke to TDC running at the same speed. Strange how things work like that.

[@daesmith3274]

I've read about that too. I forget what term they refer to that angle as but owell.

[@buckduane1991]

The Heisler wobbles even worse… I’ve had mine flip over off the rails when just going 5 mph around a 90 meter curve while pulling empty hoppers recently, even. Only my Eureka comes as close to it at the moment, and it’s as bad as your Class 70 currently. It’s like the weight is flipped from bottom to top in game, but admittedly the #3 on that line in modern Oregon on the coast does wobble a bit in videos I’ve seen of it, such as “Steam Galore 10” when it appears (and I have ridden behind it myself personally), but it’s nowhere as bad as in game.

[@Jkauppa]

hey think about copper lined iron rails, and each car having alternating levitation magnets, then you dont have to magnetize the whole rail (upwards) but the linear magnet lines on the rail car will induce the opposite magnet field on the copper lined track, problem solved

I looked it up and google says Baldwin made a total of around 70,500 trains

[@TheDemocrab]

Just FYI on CPU bottlenecks kAN: You can be CPU bottlenecked while your CPU usage is way under 100% still because that percentage includes all of your CPUs cores and a game that has a bunch of single-threaded code might only be able to load up a few of them at a time. RRO isn't very well threaded either, for example all the physics calculations for trains and the like takes place on a single thread on the hosts PC which is why MP can quickly get laggy when a lot of stuff is moving around at once. ...With that said I have a feeling the performance dip you saw was just UEs poor optimisation mixing with Keume's keumecode more than anything.

Asking for a friend. How do you spawn that cordwood in?

[@randywise5241]

The class70 has issues in the game. Nothing major but still an issue. One question, Where in real life do the train companies load the cars? Don't they just provide the cars to be loaded and move them when ready? It would be cool to just park cars at a dock or yard and leave them and come back latter and move fully loaded cars? But that may be asking to much. There needs to be a grind to earn properly. Like real life. It is a simulation, right?

[@bryanvincer7081]

BNSF flood loads coal unit trains in the western U.S. CSX & NS flood load coal trains in the eastern U.S. Other than that, I think the actual industry is responsible for loading and unloading the cars

[@randywise5241]

@@bryanvincer7081 I though something like that. The train needs to be running in the coal shoots. Both loading and unloading . The Iron industry deploys their one trains to move things around. They load the products going out on other lines. They have cool operations in the steal plants. Outside trains deliver and they do the rest. Just drop off the cars and the steal mills trains move and unload them.

[@randywise5241]

I have problems with the turn tables in the main. But the train stops. Don't the real turn tables have a lock that keep it on the line you are using? They need that. I set the turn table and by the time I start on it it can change positions and mess up. The beta seems to have more issues with them.
