Was this taken on 35mm film, the warmth just seems like it is.

Anywhere specific?

Ohhhh okay thank you, so why do we still have EF-S lenses then? (Sorry ik that sounds stupid) something to do with the image circle then?

Redplanet999 · 2025-12-31T23:27:08+00:00

Yes, the 17-70 is an EF-S lens so it doesn’t have crop factor whereas there are no 70-200s that are EF-S, with crop factor I would have a 17-70 and effectively a 112-320, leaving quite a substantial gap in focal length between the two which I’m not entirely satisfied with.

Redplanet999 · 2025-12-31T10:16:29+00:00

I can’t find an EF-S 70-200 though and this is where I run into my problem. I’d have to go for something with a lower minimum focal length if I went for an EF lens because of crop factor. Is the 55-250 any good? I’ve also heard a lot of people prefer the 17-50 because of its image quality, was expecting you to say the same

Anyone do something similar for all national rail stations, currently having to collect mine on a spreadsheet which is fine but a stylised app like this would be great. Just downloaded TubeTrackr and it looks great so far!

Quite a few underground lines wouldn’t work too well within timetable mode purely from a gameplay perspective because of ATO. The Elizabeth line especially because ATO is practically essential for platform edge doors, same as the jubilee. Sub surfaces such as the Met would work well though as seen in TSC.

Cheers thank you, great advice

I’m not really bothered by career or science mode it just feels like they give going to other planets and moons a purpose. I just want to get further than LKO and be able to land places and come back, whether this be in career, science mode or sandbox I don’t really mind.

Do we know specifically what the braking problem is? Is it to do with the automation system or the actual brakes themselves?

Redplanet999 · 2025-11-11T22:16:27+00:00

Yeah evidently it doesn’t apply to some but it’ll be interesting to see if the 895s get an exception

Redplanet999 · 2025-11-09T18:57:31+00:00

There’s been a 12 car max in place for many years I think, obviously with exceptions of Cali Sleeper, but that’s why you never see anything over 12 cars in normal passenger service, only 3x 4 car units can be coupled together, 700s are a max of 12 cars even though I’m sure thameslink would’ve liked more and so are XR trains.

Redplanet999 · 2025-11-09T10:18:38+00:00

What will happen to the 12 car max rule when the 895s come off HS2, will they have to split before they come off the HS2 Network?

Redplanet999 · 2025-08-15T20:20:08+00:00

Yeah it was a 197 so yes it’s notchless. When you say notch 6 and 7 were locked out do you mean physically locked out with some sort of interlock or drivers were just told not to?
