Great video, shout out to Stockport. Was looking forward to seeing you go through my town

[@RichPAFC1987]

If you want incline challenge, do Exeter - Plymouth in a 150 or 158. I would say better done in the Up direction for full effect of Hemerdon Bank, plus finish off along the flats on the river Teign, Dawlish Sea Wall and then a spint to 75 (150) or 90mph (158) along the Exe Estuary. Also the position light with the main signal at danger means proceed stopping short of any obstruction so it is correct.

The triangle at Dore does at least get used when the EMR service is close to an hour late. They'll tell passengers for Sheffield to get off at Stockport and wait for the following service, then continue straight for Nottingham. I think it allows them to make up 18 minutes or so.

Can't whistle at earls due to some guy complaining he couldn't hear the birds in the morning 😂😂 (dad's a driver) need to show them this vid, really hope it comes to tsw3 one day

[@Stocksbridge_writer]

Great video. The igloo in Sheffield is a storage at Olive Grove for salt.

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Awh that’s no fun! So no giant Eskimo overlords of Sheffield? 🥺

[@Stocksbridge_writer]

@@JoeDobsongaming nope they didn't like the climate so moved to Barnsley

[@JoeDobsongaming]

@@Stocksbridge_writer ah… now you come to mention it that does make sense 😉

[@thomasoakleyderbyshire9761]

Great vid joe. I’m loving the new hope valley extension myself. I’ve drove a few northern services in the past few days.

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Thanks Thomas! It’s great to hear you’re enjoying it! I’ve not dabbled in the stoppers too much yet, but can’t wait to start!

Just Trains called the P10 office. Because we broke the RA like we broke everything, bell buzzer is now in effect on P13. Sorry about that. Nice little route, although Picc does still have halogens in this vice the LEDs on site

[@JoeDobsongaming]

🤣🤣🤣 to be fair the one on 13 hasn’t been broken in a while so it’s nice to liven things up every now and then 😄

[@trainspotteromg]

The dome is Highways england salt storage for the snowplows and gritters

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Makes sense to use it for that, after the Eskimo overlord moved to Barnsley (if you believe the legend of course!)

[@brickfamily9193]

The big pointy thing is the ex co-op HQ

[@Adventureswithhjashorts]

And EMR they do stop at Dore and Totley but depends the timetables

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Good to know! Seems a really random stopping pattern sometimes

[@dragonheatgaming5005]

i do know the spen valley walkway very well, i've walked it a few times

[@streetlite26]

I’m surprised it hasn’t been retrofitted with a voith with stagecoach behind the managing seat 😂

[@JoeDobsongaming]

As it happens, Class 158’s do have Voith transmission 😄

[@davidalt92]

can’t wait till the 158’s no longer run the Norwich to Liverpool Lime Street

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Aww poor 158's! Are you not a fan?

[@davidalt92]

@@JoeDobsongaming I was but they've served the route I mentioned for far too long. 2 carriages from Norwich to Nottingham and then a further 2 to Liverpool Lime Street is poor imo. With the 170's Emr are getting, hopefully the it will be 3 car then a further 2. 158 get crowded very quickly

[@Lennon6412]

​@@davidalt923 cars are less than 4 though

[@davidalt92]

@@Lennon6412 🤞from Nottingham onwards they add carriages like then. 3 from Nottingham to Norwich

[@ThatTransportGirl]

Great vid love the 158 stagecoach

[@JoeDobsongaming]

I do too! They really suited the livery didn't they!

[@greenisland75]

You just know in 5 years time some developer will create the missing section of the route and an updated version of the game will be available to purchase.

[@32446]

Nice video Joe

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Thanks Will! Shouldn’t you be in bed at this time in the morning 🤣

Ho joe hope all well happy new year

[@KingsAquariumsAndReptileRoom]

Amazing video Joe!. Loved the scenery! Absolutely stunning!. Btw have you tried the wherry lines Lowestoft to Norwich and Norwich to Yarmouth, Yarmouth to Lowestoft?

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Love the wherry lines! Also another great route 😄 Thanks for the nice comments re the video also 🥳

[@KingsAquariumsAndReptileRoom]

@@JoeDobsongaming have you done these routes before , if not would you consider it!!.

[@SparkX28]

Joe, will cites skylines return?

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Cities Skylines will return when Colossal Order/Paradox fix their Plazas & Promenades addon which has broken our save. Once they've patched it, Skylines will be back! :D

Where does the MML actually end?

[@JoeDobsongaming]

MML is London St Pancras to Sheffield, and the Nottingham spur, so actually the Hope Valley isn’t part of the MML 😄

[@aviationdhuk]

Are you a train driver in real life Joe ?

[@damianc.0.681]

I believe he is a gaurd/train conductor but I could be wrong

[@JoeDobsongaming]

I’m most definitely not a train driver in real life 😄 they don’t trust me with such things haha

You missed the first stop lol

Ah I assume you mean Levenshulme? We weren’t booked to stop there, it just showed on the map as the scenario creator used it as a waypoint 😄
