Train Simulator 2015 - Route Learning: Carlisle to Glasgow Central (Class 390 Pendolino)

[@Nathan-nn9dn]

Hi I'm a train dispatcher at Oxenholme and carlisle and this route is amazing! I thought I'd point out just so you know this train would usually depart from platform one if it has come from the south this is not always the case depending on when the next train is the first train will always go to platform 1 instead of platform 3 ... amazing videos!!

[@scottishtrains9761]

When I go to Carlisle, Platform 1 is only used by TPE and the occasional voyager. The rest just go to platform 3.

[@GavinCook194]

Just set this scenario up for myself. With the AP lighting and the sun going down just as you enter Scotland the scenery looks stunning!

[@gmayo777]

Amazing how the game still looks like this 6 years later 😍

[@Bullmannumber4]

Great video on what I think this probably is one of my favorite modern routes. I remember getting this when it first came out and it being the first route that really impressed me and gave the feeling of actually being there. Definitely up for watching a Twitch stream and the Q&A idea is also good, it would be interesting to see what questions you get asked.

[@PTGRail]

Awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed it William :) It's starting to look a little dated in places but I think with the time of the evening I did it it's quite atmospheric! I will be looking more into doing a Twitch stream and Q&A video soon. I'm curious what people might ask me too! I'll start planning it all soon :)

[@MaverickHunterDaniel]

I'll give you something: You mentioned 88mph without reference to Back To The Future.

[@hexagon7895]

Another great video, Central station and the surrounding area are both places that I am familiar with. The depot at Polmadie is pronounced with a silent L. Additionally as a mere unusual fact is that the 15mph reduction in to Glasgow Central could once have been a contender for most unusual speed limit as it used to be 11mph all lines, indeed for several years the old signs were left at the side of the tracks on the WCML side of the bridge. Thanks for the video and I look forward to the next video.

[@cliffwoodbury5319]

I don't have twitch t.v. or know what it is but i watch many of your route runs (you're an amazing engineer) and i bet you'd find a lot of people that would also like watching your runs.

[@joelharris1335]

Carlise Kingmoor is also the main depot for Direct Rail Services (DRS).

[@StuartJohnModels]

Enjoyed this run from start to finished these class 390's are very quick but comfy to I was on one going up to Manchester from London and it's very smooth. The freight idea is a great one let us know before hand so we can post questions to you. Looking forward to your up coming videos. Great work on this route. Best wishes Stuart John

[@PTGRail]

Awesome! I'm glad you enjoyed this video :) I agree the Class 390s are very comfortable to ride on but I always find it slighty odd the way they tilt into the curves. I've never quite got used to that feeling! I will indeed give plenty of notice and promote the Q&A video beforehand. I will also make a space for people to put their questions for me to answer during the video. Thanks again for taking the time to watch these videos :) Pete

[@guitarhero883]

PTGRail Great video as always , i always find the Class 390's a little cramped , must be just me lol.

[@Gwydien1]

Great video. Half way through the video completely baffled at how much the train banks during turns :P.

[@PTGRail]

1Popsicle1RBLX Thanks :) Haha, I know right! I'm not sure if it quite banks that much in real life lol :p

[@universaltrainsstudio8534]

I saw some pendilinos near Lockerbie in real life when I was going to Scotland! great video 😂

[@wls679]

I think the twitch idea is a splendid idea! Also that shaking on that stretch may be because of the track unevenness setting. Keep up the great work and i look froward to more videos in the future!

[@neonballroom93]

Awesome! I haven't started watching yet but I look forward to sitting back with a cup of tea and enjoying a nice Pendolino cab ride. :) In regards to you doing more freight videos, have you considered doing a video with the Class 325 Royal Mail train? That would be pretty cool! Anyway, keep the videos coming and thanks again for all your effort!

[@PTGRail]

Awesome! I'm glad you're enjoying these videos and I hope you enjoy this one :) I have indeed considered using the Class 325 for a freight video and it's something I will look into doing in the near future. Thanks for your comment, there's plenty more videos still to come :)

[@md390]

Great vids PGT, thoroughly enjoy watching but please please please make more Pendolino vids. Thanks, keep up the good work.

[@PTGRail]

md390 Thank you! And I will see what I can do :)

[@Napalm30308]

I think a Twitch Route Learning would be pretty fun. I'd certainly watch it.

[@PTGRail]

separationofmind Awesome! It seems that a few people like the idea so I'm looking into it and giving it some consideration :)

[@ieatbusuitscheer2839]

I love the pendilino and the west coast mainline

[@tonyp011]

that is a great idea of a Q&A in your rail freight video

[@PTGRail]

+Anthony Parker Thanks, I made the video last May :)

[@johnhamlin988]

Also a request, using the TS2015 - South London Route traveling from London Victoria to London Bridge station, in a Class 456 commuter. As in this guys video, the senario starts with a TS2015 message, saying there are no delays, then he hits yellow signels all the way. I presume this is so they run more trains more closely together. Just like on the underground, plain scary seeing the tail lights of the train infront, yikes!

[@Gunn72]

I have watched every single video of yours! They are amazing

[@PTGRail]

_____ IBXGAMINGSHEEP _____ Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad to know you enjoy my videos :)

[@jamescurran7121]

Another good video, although Bellshill station (between Motherwell and Uddinston) seems to have disappeared, and The Cambuslang is pronounced 'Cam-Bus-Lang' and was weird seeing the Old Hoover Factory (long building on the right just after Cambuslang Station) Its nothing more than some rubble and derelict ground. Again, keep up the good work!

[@ax2bxc]

+ScotRail170471 do you mean Paddington?

[@akarouge]

This route is set in the 1990's, maybe that?

[@hasbo5000]

Belshill hasn't disappeared. The route bypasses it

[@xBatboys4]

11:30 this is where the: Quintinshill rail disaster was in 1915 between 3 trains.

[@johnhamlin988]

Wow I do like your videos, as they teach how to drive properly. Most of the others treat it as a game. The idea of a twitch video something I would watch. Also a q&a would be most welcome, keep up the good work

[@PTGRail]

John Hamlin Thanks for your comment, I am planning on doing a video in a Class 456 on that route but I'm going to wait a little while. Armstrong Powerhouse have one which is in production and that will be to a much higher quality than the DTG version. Once that is released, rest assured I will make a video in that train on that journey! :)

[@TheBarnem13]

Another excelent vid most enjoyable thanks again!

[@PTGRail]

Thank you :)

[@dannylopes6621]

Best train ever when is the next route

[@RingLordSonic]

Love the horn noise

[@Epic_DaVinci]

As usual, excellent job.

[@PTGRail]

Thank you! It was a challenge but well worth it! What do you think about the idea I floated in this video of possibly doing a live Twitch route learning video one day? Or even using a UK Freight video where I don't have a lot to say in the commentary as a Q&A video? :)

[@Epic_DaVinci]

The more things you do, the better. If you are planning on live streaming, please give plenty of notice though. As for the Q&A, great idea.

[@PTGRail]

I will do. I would plan it and make sure I give plenty of notice and lots of promotion first. I'll think about how to do both of these and work from there :)

[@Rob_Star]

Yes to twitch tv, that would be great, and a fight train in a 92 would be great and the q&a is a amazing idea (but tell the to put it on your Facebook, if you put a post for it) Thankyou and kep up the good work PTGrail

[@PTGRail]

Thanks for the feedback! Yes I would promote both the Twitch TV and Q&A videos well in advance so people will have plenty of notice. I will also have a place for people to put their questions for me to answer during the video :) Again, thank you for taking the time to watch these videos :)

[@tonyp011]

ive actually started doing this route last night in a pendolino although its not the virgin trains as I cant get hold of the vt pendolino

[@class170rocks9]

Great Video I Enjoyed it !

[@PTGRail]

Class170Rocks Thanks! :)

[@lukemoss9314]

Loving the videos! I should be writing my essays but find myself watching video after video haha Question though, your graphics look amazing and I was wandering what components your pc has, the power of it etc. Things such as that. Only reason I ask is that I am looking at getting myself a decent pc to play simulation games on but have no idea where to buy from or even build a high performance gaming pc. Hope this makes sense...

[@PTGRail]

Luke Moss Haha, I know that feeling about doing essays! Sometimes I've found myself wanting to make a video when I should be writing my essays lol :p My current PC is around three and a half years old so it's getting on a bit now! I'm hoping to upgrade later this year. The graphics card was a key component when I bought it, and it was the most powerful single AMD Radeon card on the market at that time. The specs are: Corsair 800w PSU AMD Phenom ll X6 3.2ghz Processor 8gb DDR 3 RAM AMD Radeon HD 6970 2gb Graphics Card 1 Tb and 3Tb Hard drives

[@junioraniuga8091]

Loved it

[@PTGRail]

Junior aniuga Thanks! :)

[@GaryTurpie]

Another enjoyable video - I travel from Glasgow to Birmingham/warrington on a fairly regular basis Pan Am Flight 103 was meant to explode over the Atlantic but due to a delay then it exploded over Lockerbie I can't tell you if that little bump is there in real life as i normally sleep 90% of the journey the train leaving central was the glasgow to edinburgh waverley train is there any chance you can do an east coast train journey?

[@PTGRail]

Gary Turpie I am planning to cover the route from Edinburgh to Newcastle at some point soon which is an East Coast journey In the mean time, I have covered journeys from London to Peterborough and York to Newcastle already on this channel. :)

[@GaryTurpie]

PTGRail Thanks for letting me know :)

[@faraidominicmamhende4042]

hi nice to see you again can you do a route from Glasgow to London in 390 pendileno

[@PTGRail]

+Farai Dominic Mamhende I can't do that whole route in one go, and we don't have the sections between Preston and Stafford or Rugby and Euston at present.

[@HamSweetHam25]

Your videos are excellent but please can you do (possibly) a route from london euston to wigan north western

[@am-vm8ew]

Why does everyone think that every route on the flipping planet exists? Can you go on steam and look at available routes before commenting please?

[@timidtrash3748]

I live in Lockerbie ☺

[@microlach6632]

good old virgin trains

[@OlanKenny]

Have done this route previously but the details at various stations especially Carlisle and Glasgow are missing

[@miguelsmith5838]

Please do a Inverness to Newcastle route

[@philwright8269]

can you do a blackpool journey you mentioned blackpool in this route thanks

[@PTGRail]

+Philip Wright Unfortunately there are no routes to Blackpool currently available in Train Simulator or else I would :)

[@ac10372]

How do you get AWS on I have the pendolino and I press the AWS reset button and it does nothing no dings or bells after 5 mins of driving

[@tmaster098]

How did he get the modern version of the map. I only have the old version with the class 87's

[@TheWestAnglian]

what is the difference between the wcml north and the wcml over shap? very confused!

[@PTGRail]

KirkinsteinMC WCML over Shap includes the route from Preston to Carlisle with the Morcambe/Heysham Port branch as well as the Dumfries Branch. WCML North is the route from Carlisle to Glasgow Central, including a number of local lines around Glasgow.

[@susanyang7888]

If you can could you do glasgow to Edinburgh via shotts

[@huntergreedgaming9084]

Hi! Your Videos Look Great And I Was Wondering. I Have The Class 390 Add-On But Where Did You Get The Virgin Pendolino Skin?

[@PTGRail]

HuntergreedGaming Thanks! :) This Virgin reskin for the Class 390 came with the free extra stock pack with an Armstrong Powerhouse scenario pack which you can find online here :) - www.armstrongpowerhouse.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=29_80&product_id=136

[@huntergreedgaming9084]

Thanks. The only problem is I now got WCML north but no stations show up. It registers it on the route but the scenery is not there

[@PTGRail]

Is your scenery density set to the highest in the graphics settings in the game? I only ask because that's happened to me before where it was turned down and I didn't realise and then scenery disappeared.

[@huntergreedgaming9084]

I'll check tommorow man, but thanks for your help. Good luck with your vids

[@PTGRail]

Awesome, let me know if it works. Someone else asked me about the same problem yesterday and it fixed it for them :)

[@jamiebrannonfrizocean3314]

Love your videos man. Does anyone know how to break with a step 5/6 but to get rid of a beeping noise and forcing the train to slow down. Please, anyone help!

[@PTGRail]

Which beeping noise are you referring to?

[@jamiebrannonfrizocean3314]

PTGRail I think it’s when the break cyclinder pressure gets too high, but I realised on your video when you apply step 5/6 of breaking it doesn’t happen

[@paulrostron3726]

Try pressing Q on the keyboard next time it happens. It has never happened to me though. I think this should help. I have had a beeping sound every few seconds or so on the 390 and I just press Q and it stops.

[@paulrostron3726]

[@ssbohio]

At about 1:02:00 there is a two-tone siren-like alarm. What is that?

[@joshs3929]

*Slams head on desk* i need help i don't know what route to buy with my 390... Im not sure what route has the 390 as well as other trains i can buy

[@jamieclarkson8757]

What’s the number on the Pendolino after 390 ?

[@techgamer1597]

Hello PTG rail, how do you get your camera zoomed out like that in the cab, as mine is very far forward. Thanks.

[@willdownham5078]

Just wondering if anyone knows how he sets his camera back like that, When I play my can view is set forward more than he is on his screen. Is that something easily changed?

[@john.xcsfndjsjnssnns1271]

I am in to virgin trains and all trains

[@jakethesnake5567]

? Nice vid

[@uchihasasuke7863]

also how do you get the cruise control to work when i press C or click the button it doesn't work

[@PTGRail]

+Natsu Dragneel Pressing 'C' turns it on. But if you move the power handle at all once it's on, then it will turn it off again. Also, it doesn't stop you from accelerating on downhill gradients.

[@stuartcampbell747]

What frame rate are you working at? & what would you say an ideal route or dlc pack would be to get for starting out? Also I notice you have done a geml. Have you done any intercity?

[@PTGRail]

Stuart Campbell It varies all along the route but I would say the average is 25-30fps, sometimes higher and sometimes lower. I have done an Intercity video, but not on the GEML. You will find that as the York to Newcastle video in an HST. I would recommend London to Brighton as a good route to start out with :)

[@tonyp011]

how do you get further back into your cab so that you can see all the control panel

[@PTGRail]

+Anthony Parker kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqi6lWSdi82Hb7c&lc

[@156andrew8]

try the Glasgow to Edinburgh

[@PTGRail]

Andrew Rennie That is one of my planned routes to cover. I mentioned several different Scottish journeys I will be covering in this video :)

[@maxbee8715]

It wood be greater if the FTPE 350s were in this scenario

[@PTGRail]

Max Bee There weren't any in the timetable at this time of the evening or else I may have used the Class 450 reskin :)

[@benchilling]

Have you ever thought of becoming a train driver?

[@PTGRail]

benchilling I have! It's always been a lifelong dream of mine to be a train driver. Unfortunately it's not easy to get in to. I hope that one day I might! :)

[@uchihasasuke7863]

how did you get the virgin train to work i tried some steam mods but it doesnt work

[@PTGRail]

+Natsu Dragneel You can get it for free with the extra stock packs for AP scenario packs on their website :)

[@zacharymorgan3662]

is there a route to Manchester airport

[@PTGRail]

+Zachary morgan Unfortunately not at present.

[@gonzyeahgonzo1543]

Try not to sound your horn at level crossings in Britain unless there's a whistle board before it.

[@gonzyeahgonzo1543]

Just a tip.

[@PTGRail]

GonzYeahGonzo I'm already aware of that. Apart from sounding it departing stations just for effect, I didn't think I had sounded the horn other than at whistle boards?

[@ryanmcquade6157]

your second pronunciation is right bud

[@PTGRail]

+Ryan Mcquade Thank you :)

[@planemadheathrow]

Where can I the 390 and all of the Scotrail AI from

[@PTGRail]

planemadheathrow The Class 390 is available on Steam as is the Class 156. The Class 90 is available from Armstrong Powerhouse, as is the Class 320 :)

[@nono-gr3xg]

What is your favourite train ptgrail

[@PTGRail]

+Jon Galliver The Class 91 :)

[@10reubenl]

What pc and graphics card do you have? Are you running at maximum settings?

[@PTGRail]

Reuben Lee I'm running on a 3 and a half year old PC now, I'm hoping to upgrade it later this year. The specs are: AMD Phenom II X6 Processor 3.2ghz 8gb DDR3 RAM AMD Radeon HD 6970 2gb graphics card. While old now, it was the fastest AMD card on the market at the time I bought it (September 2011) This PC can handle the game in the highest settings with 8x AA but on certain routes it can be a bit laggy. For video recording I've reduced from highest to high settings and reduced the AA to 4x. This helps reduce the lag that recording can cause.

[@universaltrainsstudio8534]

How much does this route cost on the train simulator route store? please reply! 😉

[@jamiebrannonfrizocean3314]

Surrey Transport And Trains £24.99

[@JAMGaming-fj7zf]

How did you get a Virgin Class 390?

[@PTGRail]

+JAM Gaming You can get it for free from www.armstrongpowerhouse.com and downloading the extra stock pack on the WCML over Shap passenger scenario pack page :)

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

I hope you don't mind me asking but what add one are required for that route because I have it but the platforms all the way aren't loading and at Carlisle none of the massive station buildings or anything like that are happening, could you help me

[@PTGRail]

Nutter 31806 Can you check your graphics settings and make sure the scenery density is turned right up? That's the usual problem with this issue :)

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

So I need to turn up my graphics all the way up???

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

Thank you for helping me and I will try it out later

[@PTGRail]

Nutter 31806 No problem. Let me know what happens :)

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

Ok I will do

[@cjtait4415]

how do you download the virgin livery?

[@clairehislop8321]

Do you pass by Ayrshire on this route?

[@09weenic]

Claire Hislop No when you enter Scotland you pass through Dumfries & Galloway and South Lanarkshire before coming into Glasgow

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

Hello it's me again would there be any chance you could do a tutorial video start to finish about downloading the class 390 Virgin Trains reskin as I have had many problems? Thanks, Nutter 31806

[@PTGRail]

+Nutter 31806 I'm considering doing a full reskin installation tutorial in the near future :)

[@dorsetrailenthusiast6944]

I've just got it through Armstrong Powerhouse extra stock for the WCML over shap scenario pack

[@HamSweetHam25]

Or possibly liverpool to london

[@tylernorman2253]

How do you download it

[@PTGRail]

Tyler Norman You can buy it on Steam :)

[@mackemcabbie]

please do different views so we can see more scenery

[@PTGRail]

+djearthstu Unfortunately that's not really possible due to driving without the HUD. As long as I don't use the HUD, I need to drive from the cab so I can keep an eye on what the train is doing.

[@mackemcabbie]

Can you drive without the hud. I'm thinking about getting the game.

[@PTGRail]

djearthstu I am driving without the HUD. Most TS videos on KZbin have the HUD on which makes it a lot easier. I prefer to drive without to make things a lot more realistic :)

[@mackemcabbie]

+PTGRail I just love to look at the scenery

why don't you a video of a rugby train

[@PTGRail]

There are two videos in which Rugby station appears on this channel. A Class 390 from Rugby to Stafford and a Class 350 from Stafford to Rugby.

[@Paradice4Life]

People are stupid in donating money to somebody creating a video. Including all you who donate at Pateron. It seems you have more money than sense. For a route why not pick the Bristol to Portsmouth line.

[@PTGRail]

Adam Hartnell Holmes Well I guess that's a matter of opinion. Considering the amount of hours I put in to just one video, all I ask is people donate if they want to. I will never charge, I've just put the option there. Maybe some people feel that they would like to contribute to the work that I do? :) The Bristol to Portsmouth line doesn't currently exist in Train Simulator.

[@Paradice4Life]

PTGRail I see you take effort in your videos knowing the knowlege for each train and route your doing. I previously watched your Paignton to Exeter video that was very interesting. Its a shame Train Simulator does not have it, I suggested it as its the line I commute on The only thing that baffled me was your donation bit. But that is all cleared up now.

[@briankettle9342]

great video but less waffle please.

[@straightsix306]

Make your own!

[@aflyingchapati4395]

Maybe you should try a route that you don't know well and so you can make some mistakes by accidents so that there is some humour associated with the video. Otherwise I find your videos kinda tedious

[@PTGRail]

TheRailerKid That's an idea to consider sometime. I'm aware that these videos could be perceived at tedious to some, and as I've always said they aren't for everyone. That's why I'm trying to branch out with train guides and route guides - to offer something different that no one else is offering. When it comes to the route learning series, it's difficult to add much variety other than in the routes and trains themselves, or else it defeats the purpose they are made for.
