I saw in the description of the loco that you can actually drive a double header by doing a short blast and the one behind will do one back to say it's ready. How awesome!
Sorry to comment again, but at 12:30 the 1980s tender is flat because it is welded. 3442 sat out of use, rusting away at Severn Valley during the 1970s, and the tank needed replaced, so a new welded one was built.
I’ve watched this video 3 times trying to get the basics down to drive this loco in intermediate mode but can’t for the life of me figure it out. How is this harder than driving a BMG loco!?!
At 5:45 the gauges with needles do not move from what I have found in my operations of the K4. I also have to recommend these beautiful locomotives. (3442 in my favourite LNER loco).
I have to play with TSX mode off on TS because with TSX mode on, i get at best 1-5 frames per second... With TSX mode off though, i get 30 frames per second apart from a few lag spikes here and there mostly because it might be loading in scenery.
Although Steven, the NRM needed to make Money and Scotsman is a engine guaranteed to make money, so it will hopefully pay back what it had to have spent on it. Hopefully
Excellent review of a magnificent engine. Definitely gonna have to grab that one for a birthday present. It's interesting that of all the astonishing features you discovered about this engine, you missed that the whistle is actually quillable. If you pull down on the whistle cords in the cab, you can actually control the tone and volume of the whistle. Thought you'd like that. Also question: From what I've read on the JT page, the Gresley Teaks that come with this pack are updated versions of the ones released donkey's years ago by Matrix Trains. I don't know if you own the MT Teaks, but if you do can you notice any particular differences between the two? From what I've seen in videos & screenshots, I think the external textures on the JT Teaks look considerably better than the MT originals, but the interiors are about the same. Still, I'd love to have that huge variety of Teaks in my roster, especially after the frankly disappointing turn-out by Digital Traction; really guys? We know you can do better than just 3 coaches.
+sirrliv I noticed the dynamic whistle effect after recording and it's not the best as it comes in a bit late and cuts out a bit too early in my opinion. I'm not sure if these MT Gresley Teaks are an upgraded look for them as this is the first time I've owned his particular teaks but all the same they look cool and there's more coach specs then the DT ones, however the rail joint sounds on the MT ones seem quite dull and plain in sound compared to the likes of other rolling stock.
I saw the first pictures of the brunswick version and I almost collapsed with the amount of detail compared to the RSC version from years ago. my life in TS2016 would be made complete if they ever did my bae lswr 488 Adams radial tank
The 488 is beautiful. I wish Bluebell would get that thing up and running again. I would love to see 'Bluebell' herself, no. 323. The JT form should be beautiful.
+Footballtraincrash I will probably get round to looking at Smokebox's FeF-3 844 at some point but I'll probably wait until is Golden Spike Jupiter is make and hopefully followed by 119 as well which I'm so hyped for. Also I need to relearn how to keep 844 going it's by far the most advanced steam loco in the game.
Your right BTC is Brake Third Composite nice video Stephen hope your ready for Tuesday for the Great Britain Railtour Royal Scot and 44871 are going from Victoria to Plymouth I'll be at Kensington Olympia for them going through at 9:06 glad your back after what happened and Braunton is back as 34052 Lord Dowding see you again soon
Yes I know I missed her going through Kensington Olympia but never mind better Luck Next time plus I looked on Richard Harnetty's channel he said sadly 44871 failed at Stafford with the broken radius rod but before she failed Lord Dowding aka Braunton gave a big whistle at the convoy it is nice to have two of Jeremy Hosking's engines back in active service
The Wartime Black does look very smart indeed :D
+ Ah ok. Hope you are alright after sorting those issues out. Good to see you're back in the spirit lad. You're a very good lad. Keep up the good work

Nice review Steven keep the great work up

this review is amazballz
At 5:45 the gauges with needles do not move from what I have found in my operations of the K4. I also have to recommend these beautiful locomotives. (3442 in my favourite LNER loco).
if you don't mind me asking, what route are you using for the review? looks really good.
I have to play with TSX mode off on TS because with TSX mode on, i get at best 1-5 frames per second...
With TSX mode off though, i get 30 frames per second apart from a few lag spikes here and there mostly because it might be loading in scenery.

+LNER 4489 TC BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
For £4.2mil Green Arrow and City of Truro could BOTH be running. I still want to see the ONLY full height/width King running again too.
+Jacob Woods sodding Ellerman Lines could run for the amount of money thats been spent! lol
Andrew Thomas That is true
are those teaks ex matrix trains

Have you Reviewed or seen the Iron Horse House WD 2-8-0? It only gets 1 Livery and Whistle but its still a nice loco.
+ItzzDustyspartan32 I'll look into it but no promises as it's from in the words of Rhys "He who must not be named" lol
GWR6029 That's fine.
I bet you are happy that JT is making the V2 Green Arrow now.

Jacob Woods the k1 and the k4 look the same
what rute you use ?
what route is this?
Can you review the Union Pacific FEF-3 it is hands doown the best loco on steam

+GWR6029 Im practicing but im still not very good at it
19:10 XD XD XD XD XD
+GWR6029 back in the spirit eh? Been a while mate
I had a few issues in my personal life that needed sorting so the channel took a back seat until it was stable to sort itself out

44871 failed at Stafford yesterday with a broken radius rod so it may just be Royal Scot on the great britain
Yes I know I missed her going through Kensington Olympia but never mind better Luck Next time plus I looked on Richard Harnetty's channel he said sadly 44871 failed at Stafford with the broken radius rod but before she failed Lord Dowding aka Braunton gave a big whistle at the convoy it is nice to have two of Jeremy Hosking's engines back in active service
