Train Simulator: South Wales Coastal Route Add-On Crack Gamehackstudios

Updated: Mar 11, 2020





















































About This Content Directly connecting England and Wales, running underneath the longest river in the United Kingdom, the South Wales Main Line is one of the most important cross border routes in the country, as featured in the beautiful new South Wales Coastal route for Train Simulator. The South Wales Main Line branches off from the Great Western Main Line to allow a direct connection between London and the South of Wales. The line was opened in two stages - the first exclusively in Wales, running from Swansea to Chepstow in 1850; the second section was in England, branching off from Royal Wootton Bassett towards Patchway in 1903.Crossing the River Severn was always an engineering challenge, with trains initially heading north from Swindon to traverse into Wales, joining the South Wales Main Line at Chepstow. Construction of the four-mile Severn Tunnel began in 1873, and by 1886 it became the fastest route between the two countries, making the ‘Great Way Round’ only a backup way of crossing the Severn, for example when the tunnel was closed.With the Welsh coal mines running at their peak, the line became an important trunk for freight traffic, which is still the case today. Connection to various docks on both sides of the Severn meant there were always heavy coal trains running to Portishead Docks from around the south of Wales. The SWML is also credited with a major role in the expansion of Fishguard Docks, the Great Western Railway’s main connection to the USA.Today, the line is operated by Arriva Trains Wales and also sees First Great Western services originating from London Paddington into Cardiff, and beyond. Freight remains a key part of the route, be it imported coal or steel works movements. The line is also one of the last major inter-city routes in Great Britain to remain un-electrified, although there are plans to electrify the line by 2018 to allow the new Hitachi Super Express Electro-Diesel and Electric Multiple Units (Class 800 and 801) to replace ageing HST units on London to Cardiff services.The South Wales Coastal – Bristol to Cardiff route for Train Simulator recreates the 39 mile section of main line from Bristol Temple Meads and Bristol Parkway to Cardiff Central, via the Severn Tunnel. Also included are a number of locomotives and freight wagons to replicate services on the line as seen today, including the Arriva Trains Wales Class 175 ‘Coradia’ DMU, Freightliner Class 70 and Great Western Railways Class 43 HST.ScenariosEight scenarios for the route:Cardiff to HolyheadHolyhead to CardiffCardiff to Cheltenham SpaCheltenham Spa to MaestegWentloog to SouthamptonTaunton to CardiffPortbury to Rugeley PSLondon to SwanseaMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

So many bugs and issues, many detailed by other reviewers, another if only DTG release.The dreaded red light at Newport got me too, plus scenarios where you stop at a platform, open the doors and the red timer bar doesn't show, the doors close you set off, instantly game ended you failed to stop at the station, It seems as if this particular quirk also affects the North London as well.I won't hold my breath waiting for a fix, as it's obvious from the state this thing was when released that DTG don't give a monkey's.Buying a DTG route is a bit like waiting for a bus, then the one you are waiting for comes along its destination clearly marked, you get on the bus ask the driver as to the destination just to be sure, the bus sets off only to go in a completely wrong direction, you approach the driver and ask him why?. He just looks at you and says, "I lied".a pic from the HUD showing arrival as being nigh on four hours late outside of Newporthttps:\/\/steamcommunity.com\/profiles\/76561198055984802\/recommended\/376940\/. This is a very good scenery add-on route and fills a needed gap in the GWR timetable. Hopefully at some point we will get the full Swansea to London Paddington route - a journey I make regularily . Attention to detail is excellent in this add-on , and Newport station is well depicted since its recent revamped terminal building. I love the trampoline's in the back gardens of the terrace houses outside of Newport station - it makes me chuckle when I pass them - a nice touch.Recommended !..

This addon is high quality and detailed, I can give evidence of this due to me travelling down this line alot. The 175 brakes are pathetic buit overall a great pack. Like others I was expecting other lines to the west of wales like the Vale of Glamorgan. The Valley line and the maesteg and camarthen branch lines. But overall a good pack I havent tested the 158 and 143 yet but the ratings seem good.. First you definitely should buy the twin pack, they are giving you a discount for more contents.Ok, this route, it is not actually the one for challenging or precision driving, it's all about scenery. My suggestion is don't stick inside the cab, cause all the trains don't have too much in-cab stuff for you to mess up with. Instead the outside looking, the liveries, those are the things DTG really spend efforts with. The reflection on the HST is just superb for instance. The route itself is in very high details, along with the tunnels, stations and tracks. But again, this route isn't electrified with overhead lines or third rail as it is in real life, so not too much stuff you can add later on. The route also includes other small stations in Cardiff which you can enjoy during a scenario with the 143, pretty neat little things they added.Overall, use a controller instead of keyboard on this, it's much better in terms of capturing nice screenshots and explore the map. They are some known issues with this unfortunately, like the headlights automatically switches off once you are in passenger view in the 175, I think they maybe fix those things in the future, hopefully.At last, I will recommend this route if you enjoy those lovely sceneries, this is absolutely the one. But if you are looking for realistic driving, perhaps you will want to wait for a discount or some more related add-ons for the route.. EDIT: DO NOT PURCHASE THIS! IT ONLY GIVES YOU TO CARIDFF AND NOT SWANSEA. PURCHASE THE FULL ONE AT \u00a324.99 AND YOU WILL GET MORE FOR ONLY \u00a310 EXTRA.I close my case. Newport red signal + Game freezes + derailed AI locos = Stay away... HIGHLY IMPRESSED, well DTG you have finally done it, you have finally done something i thought you would do and that is impress me.This route is TOP NOTCH the level of detail and care gone into it is sublime, cardiff central looks perfect including platform 8 actually being completed when its not even completed in real life until december :P.only gripe cardiff canton looks od compared to the real deal.plenty of content from the included 70, hst and 175 and for an extra \u00a32 the 143 and 158 make happy additions for senarios included are 8 careers and 4 extra with the dmu pack so 12 in total so win win :D
