For those who don't know, this is the guy behind Steam Engine Simulator on Steam and the equally famous Engine Simulator.

16:50 - In regards to the D&RG 5 chime, I have done a little digging into the source, and the listing of it in-game is correct. The source of the whistle is actually from D&S 486 from a video by Arkansas Locomotive Works titled "American Steam Locomotive Whistles [Remaster]" at around the 22:35 mark.

Wack. Nice research. That's absolutely the same recording. Doesn't sound like any other grande 5 I've heard, but far be it for the grande's stuff to end up being the same....

Don't know whether or not you remember later in this episode, but 9 & 0 is for switching between the ends of the selected train, and Shift + 9 or 0 is for going between the cars/locomotives individually.

Can confirm your claim that soloing between Bryson and Sylva is definitely a 3-4.5 hour stint. And on my stream save, I’m definitely not repeating the same mistake I did on my chill save. Do recommend, though, that you buy a couple of S-23s & G-26s, along with one K-28 for the log jobs to Connelly, and sell the G-16s. Anyways, cheers from the ESRR and BD&SM.

We can’t imagine anyone would say no to a three or four hour Railroader Hycemageddon in the future, it’d be a good way to break in the ES&D’s new Decapod.

A patch after the main update also added the ability to bind the Window Close function to a key of your choice, and you now start with a full coal hopper in a new game!(honestly, _why wasn't that the case before?_ you kinda need a good amount of fuel if you're gonna start operating a railroad!)

I chose to restart, and I shed a single tear. There was so much with the repairing/overhauling that I needed to understand.

@killman369547

Wear and tear is pretty straightforward. You lose 5% of your locomotive's condition per 100 miles and in the update notes it recommends to overhaul your engine after every 1000 miles, because as you do normal maintenance the level you can repair it to slowly decreases, and to be able to restore it to full working order you'll need to do an overhaul by configuring one of your engine sheds for that purpose.

I think the turntables should be selectable like the locomotives so that you can more easily operate them without having to use 1st person view.

Love the video as always. Little side tangent to keeping tracks clean on a model layout: My family has built a 450sqft layout in our house. And the only way we’re able to keep the tracks so clean and nice looking is we’ve converted certain diesel locos to be specific track cleaners. Steam locomotives we usually use an aux tender. We lash them up with the main consist or put it as a DPU loco. Even use some for yard switch duties. No power or anything to them, can usually shove a speaker in there if you have it constantly with another loco. Don’t know why some of the bigger model train companies haven’t made a track cleaning prototypical locomotive.

Looking good Hyce! Warm Greetings from the North Texas & Gulf Railroad Company

I wonder if at some point you'd be willing to do an updated video review, since the real purpose of the game becomes a lot more clear with a bigger railroad. And also since the updates since release have improved the experience considerably.

Hyce, don't forget about the new engine roster menu. It allows for even faster switching between all your engines.

Going between Bryson and Sylva and servicing every single industry on the way takes almost 4.5 hours on my railroad but that could also be because I have 3 locomotives that all have no cajones

I agree I'm digging the new update. Good luck managing your pike. Sincerely, -Pennsylvania Central (management)

BTW Mark, I live in houston myself and I have seen Eddie Carol's Layout and I agree His layout is amazing. My local club Is the Houston N crowd We have a layout inside of a Model railroad shop.

And when you manually drive it as you pull back on the johnson bar the chuff get less over reach and get a bit tidier as the speed increases.

I think you're using an older version of Tenderswaps, there's versions with more tender varieties for the later game things like the Decapod and C-46.

A certified "Chuff-and-Kenosha" Moment.

I get the feeling that every facility on the ES&DT has a radio or boom box that constantly plays Smells Like Kenosha on loop.

I would like to see scrap metal gondola track added to machine shop or box car for scrap metal. Maybe even flat cars with steel. For sawmill real image of dimensional lumber on flat cars, could even have different load types of lumber. Hardwood, softwood, could even go into the tree species load of oak, ash, poplar, birch, black walnut, white pine, spruce, maple, etc, add track for sawmill wood chips to send to pulp mill. Various wood types could be used at the furniture factory.

I've unlocked more than half of the map, but I always run at 1x speed, and never skip any time, because that's the only way it's even possible to do everything running the whole map single player. I'm actually starting a new save, because the update broke all my mods and one of them archived it's files so I can't even attempt to reinstall it, but I think my old save was only somewhere around day 20 and I've been running it for a couple months.

The furthest ive gone is sylva to robinson's gap, picking up basically every tier 3 i can, and yeah theres basically no way to get everything done across the line without being on 1:1 My MO is interchange at 4am, sort most of it at sylva, run my K-35 west, kicking cars along the way till i get to whittier, drop everything from whittier to ela at the yard, then take everything for west of there to bryson, and let the T-17 deal with whittier, ela, and all the logging. The starter G-16 runs passenger service both ways with 3 cars, and now due to wear mechanics sits on a repair track either at bryson or dills once its served everything The only way ive managed so far lol

@@callsignapollo_ I tend to rely a bit on hubs, dropping a bunch of stuff at East Whittier going west, and then sorting it out while the AI continues on to Bryson, where I drop off again, and send the AI on up the line. Similarly, going east, I'll shunt out each region into the yard, and just pick everything up on the way through. Sometimes I'll have so much eastbound that the eastbound freight struggles getting into Dillsborough, and I have to send engines down to help them up the grade. Though I've had to restart due to the most recent update breaking my mods, and not being able to sort out the mods well enough to recover my save.

Hey mark, a little thing I've done on my own game of railroader is buy a couple of the cheap moguls and use them as switchers. They are cheap and worst case saunario if you have extra engines you can have them heal with pulling long trains from the interchange.

So glad to see and hear the improvements in this game!

Hoping to see more Railroader soon! Good stuff 👍🏻

Thanks for the fix @Hyce. I just had gotten the entire line open, was gettingset up to start the industries at Sylva, everything was set up to where on 1/2 time I could easily get everything done in the daylight running by myself, and I blew out the video card in my good computer :( So again, thanks for the railroader fix, I'll have to watch you until I can get that card replaced!

BTW Mark every time you load a locomotive in sandbox mode they come full of coal and water so you don't have to service then when you get them

Last time I was this early, the ES&D hadn’t been formed!

I’m quite chuffed with the chuffs. It lacks the rhythm and slight syncopated feel of real locomotives, but only the high DCC decoders and sound files. Hats of to Adam for improving the game so drastically with just one difference, the other differences being appreciated of course. Hope you they fix the house tracking hazard, but progress is still progress

25:44 It's "Approach" because it's the last signal and they want you to go slow beyond that for some reason even though without the signals, the train would just go full speed until it approached something needing to be dealt with. This has always annoyed me, especially at Silva since the last signal is west of the depot and you have all of Silva East and the interchange after it and the AI engineer annoyingly crawls all the way. Haven't looked at this update yet, but hopefully the AI Engineer goes full beans after clearing the last signal or someone needs to make a mod that has signals that run all the way to the interchanges so you don't have to babysit the AI once you start adding CTC. They also do approach from the signal prior to the siding if the switches are lined into and through the siding, which has always annoyed me as well. Yes it's a siding, but you're also lined and cleared through, frickin' go just like you would be doing if the signals weren't there. Slow down when you're actually approaching the switch, then speed up after clearing it. Both of these are reasons why I never do the CTC upgrades. Too much stupid behavior caused by them.

It would be interesting to try to write a solver that takes in a set of cars, what tracks they are on, and what tracks and order they need to end up in, and generates a series of moves to get from the starting state to the ending state. I have a few ideas, but it'll take some thought to figure out. And I suspect this is a problem that has been solved before, but I want to try it myself :)

So with a Class 5 they get reborn...makes sense...reminds me of the old shaggy dog story...a master mechanic is writing the overhaul sheet in his shop: "Overhaul estimate on Emgine No.5...unbolt and jack up whistle and slide new locomotive underneath, lower whistle and reattach"...

@hyce 25:43 "i dont knoe why its an approach instead of clear, i dont have any more signals this way" isnt that normal behavior os the signals? All clear to the last signal- which is an approach- which is the best signal you can get before dark territory? Does the game code that?

I guess we could say Hyce is “chuffed” with this update. I’ll take my limes now, it’s almost Memorial Day and I need them for drinks

Sighs in insurance as I here Kenosha, I feel my wallet felling lighter already

This is a great game update. Not only fun new gameplay additions, but lots of QoL as well. Having the percentages on the reverser is soooooo nice. As far as a 4-hour long video of a full day goes, I don't think I'd be that interested in watching it. It can be hard enough to find time to watch the longer 1-hour videos. Livestreams are a bit different since there's active engagement with the viewer.

Lastly, when it comes to the turntables, _it's honestly just so much easier to do it in first person._ I mean, you're not gonna be riding in the cabs, right?(p.s. Ctrl + T to teleport to a spot you're hovering over(applies to map too)) Edit: Looks like you figured out the teleport XD

I stopped playing Railroader for a while because the chuffs bugged me so badly. I almost forgot I had it for a while. When I saw Shnauzapower's video on the update, I lost my mind. As soon as I got home I booted up the game and it's been so much more enjoyable ever since.
