Train brake was called "dual brake handle" as it was vacuum and air. When I was doing my driver training I spent the day in front of the class describing how it worked. Loco brake was called the "straight air brake" Power handle was called the "regulator" carried over from the steam days. As for not knowing where to put the regulator it came with practice and road knowledge although every train and loco handles differently even if the train is made up of the same class and coaching stock. Am definetly going to buy this game looks very life like. I finished with BR in 1985 You wouldn't have overloaded the generator going into the yellow, believe me your fine 😉

Just watched this video for the first time. Absolutely brilliant mate.Brings back so many 70s/80s rail journeys i made between Gt Yarmouth/Sheffield/Leeds and Manchester.Thankyou so much.

Great video as always. The route looks so atmospheric in the time of day you selected. Have had one run on it so far on a bright summers day but am hooked already, as this is the railway period I remember the most. The feel of the route is just right and the stock excellent. Cannot wait to see what DLC is released for it.

Please return to KZread. When you upload it makes my day.

I hope pray u come back soon do videos all ones evr done are amazing so their are godbless to u hope u upload soon as possible

Mate I absolutely love this your videos are of mint quality and so detailed have watched every vid of your can't wait till your back 🔙 love the scenery on this route the dark makes it look so industrial brilliant so nice and clear and your commentary is soothing

Talk about perfect timing. I've just finished my night shift and this will make for some good watching when I go to bed soon 😁👍

That was really enjoyable I was a driver at Victoria just after the class 45s left so it brought back alot of memories the funny thing is I don't ever recall coming into platform 12 from the east.

Hi, great video, I was a second man at Holbeck Depot from 1979 and have driven this route many times with 45s 47s 40s and once with a deltic. Happy days.

I too was at Manchester back in November to do Trainspotting and was stunned to see Victoria station 1980s model! Graphics are much more better than in Train Simulator.

It must've been maddening to have been an engineer on this route back then and constantly getting fast speed limits but never being able to take full advantage of them

Lovely video...stunning graphics and an informative and relaxed commentary !

That was so enjoyable, I do remember the old Manchester Victoria, it would of being better if it was extended to Liverpool Lime Street with a stop at St Helens Junction but it always used Platform 11 West, & would used Platform 13 or 14 when it was the last train to Liverpool Lime Street, but as I said it was so brilliant, would like to see it come out on Train Simulator

So fast! Nice video!

Can not wait for your return, the Documentary style videos are definatley going to be ones to watch, shame you won't return to train sim tho!

That was really good - watched it to the end. It takes some doing, driving without the hud... (By the way, Deighton is pronounced as "Deeton," and Slaithwaite as "Slathwaite" - with the "a" pronounced as in "cat" or "hat"... but locals actually pronounce it with most of the middle part cut out: "Slawit," again, with the a as in "cat." )

The markers at 56:20 are scenario markers. You can walk into them and start the regular scenarios and they're there because the scenario starts from that location.

Another excellent and useful video. I'm glad you mentioned the difficulty in predicting braking distances :) I think one of the things that makes it such a challenge is the fact that the gradients are different at each station and speed restriction?

PTG, please can you post some more videos we really miss you. Also I'm really happy because for £28 I got: Portsmouth Direct Line Waterloo one (I have both,and so I can re-skin it to Southern since I'm aiming at Clapham Junction currently), Isle Of Wight (to get London Underground freeware), North Somerset (To finish off 1066 Line), Class 319 (for scenarios around Clapham), and Class 442 (London-Brighton). I got all these routes for under £30 with this deal, trust me if you want anything in steam then DO NOT MISS IT! If you spend over £30 you'll get a £5 discount, and up to 75% off. I have all routes in London except from Ipswich, Peterborough, and Oxford, although I did consider that one, but I have all the trains for it anyway and wasnt bothered about the route. Also have you ever thought of making timelapses? Because when I want a route I find it easy to watch a timelapse rather than 1 hour each route. And you'd be great at it, since you 99% of the time stay in the cab except from a view at a platform. I think, and hope doing that will up your game in the world of KZread. I dojt understand why no one pays much attention to you. Maybe because they get bored within 10 minutes and they want a quick 10 minute overview of the map, and again I think youd be great showcasing routes, you'd have the perfect description for everything.😁 Good luck in the future and never give up.

GREAT VIDEOS! CONGRATS! But its a shame you dont make more of this TSW videos... you can make more trips videos and tutorials about TSW.

Hey I hope everything is okay. It seems like you suddenly vanished, and I hope you're not dead or anything. If you are, RIP. You were a great person and taught me a lot of the signalling systems that I still use today in Train Simulators.

Leeds is still a busy station as of 2018 particularly the main route to London Kings Cross via Doncaster. Manchester Victoria is probably the Marylebone of Manchester's two main stations. Piccadilly is the city's busiest and provide regular trains to London Euston. Also to other destinations too like Birmingham, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Almost forgot about the tramlink. There was an episode of Sooty & Co. during the 1990s I think featuring the late Matthew Corbett.

Ever thought of making a video comparing routes that are in both Train simulator and Train Sim World?

Standedge Tunnel has a canal tunnel and an other dissused train tunnel. In the late 70's my friends and I walked the dissused train tunnel and found animal bones and devil worship images on the walls which freaked us out. Later in the 80's I travelled this train route between Leeds and Manchester on a regular basis. I loved the 101 which stopped at every station.

Ho yes Class 45 Loco, Leeds to Manchester Victoria, I did this trip for real (Leeds United Football Special)

The line to Huddersfield from Victoria and Piccadilly has still not been electrified and never has been, not even in Woodhead days. On the route from Piccadilly overhead wires only reach Guide Bridge. There doesn't seem to have been any plans to electrify Victoria and the remainder of the Piccadilly to Leeds route.

Great video .... I have enjoyed playing your video while simultaneously driving the route on Xbox to learn the route. Wonder if you could please help .. couple of evenings I have been driving the DMU, in the service mode Marsden to Leeds. I am especially struggling with departing Dewsbury and Batley. Both lead into a step uphill gradient, and I only can get up to about 20mph in 1st gear when departing from these stations. If I try any of the other gears then I just a lose momentum and eventually get stuck half way up the hill! I have tried stopping just onto the platform at Dewsbury, and then use the longer platform (on straight level) to get a bit of run towards the hill, but this doesn't work at Batley due the shorter platform. I presume this is due to the DMU not being powerful enough to get up the steep hills, but if anyone has a driving tips to get up steep gradients I would be grateful? (PS ive tried the switching RPM to engine 2 button but this doesn't seem to help - but would be interested to know what this functionality should be used for?)

Would you mean a 1C-C1 wheel arrangement perchance? :-) The letters refer to the number of driven axles, so a C0-C0 had 3 driven axles per bogey with no lead / trailing 'dead' axles. In the case of the Class 45 (and 40), they had a dead "pony" axle in front of 3 driving axles. Likewise a class 31 was an A1A-A1A because it had one live axle, 1 dead, then one live on each bogey.
