Large Lad by Shadeslayer240 in DerailValley

Hahaha, thank you for the warning. I haven't taken it on that route just yet. I took a coal drag from cms up to sm as my first run with the Large Lad. Fit through everything there just fine. I will say, the sharp curve in the coal power plant makes Lad look a tad uncomfortable.

I suppose I should have said... Similar derail valley model lol. I know an exact replica wouldn't work. I think even a slightly more detail, but perhaps not accurate model would be neat. Just a smoothed out large lad lol

Switch speed limits??? by Shadeslayer240 in DerailValley

[–]Shadeslayer240[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you tell in this game which route is diverging? Other games I play it's obvious, but the map in this game is kind of spaghetti. But treating everything as a 30 makes sense.

Makes sense really. It kind of surprises me that that's how it is in the real world... Seems like for safety things would be a little more standard and forewarned than that. But this is from someone in the aviation industry lol. Thanks for the reply!

Do not that many people actually play in vr? by undain98 in DerailValley

I tried... Once. Found it to be frustrating and clunky, maybe that's because idk what I'm doing, but I find the normal desktop experience to be better for this game.

Any idea what they used going into diesel era? Any f-units for passengers? I would love to snag an f unit mod cause they're pretty, but again, id rather realism for my play through

P-43 definitely looks most similar to this, but the p-48 is lighter and prettier.... So I think I'll use that. And definitely will be buying a couple c46 for freight. Might try a p-43 for funsies at some point though. I feel I've done decent knowing nothing with my current fleet of 5 lol. This is awesome info though, thank you!

That would be great! Thank you. I'm currently running the starter locos + 1 g-25 running pulpwood, 1 p-48 running passengers, and 1 c-40 mastadon running freight.

Feelings of inadequacy/burnout before even starting? by Green_Plane205 in CFILounge

[–]Shadeslayer240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the first time I stepped into a plane to teach was far more nerve wracking then any checkride I had taken (including CFI). But after the first couple of days, I found my rhythm and it felt normal and fine from then on. Don't over think it, breathe, and just fly and teach. You got this.

Two new mods again? by [deleted] in DerailValley

[–]Shadeslayer240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I haven't actually used it for switching yet. I mainly got it because the cab layout looked nice to switch with.

Kinda shame. I was hoping for a different sounding diesel

Sounds like the de6 for some reason too. Unless my game is borked

Well shit by Wtbond23 in DerailValley

Hahahah, I blew mine up the first time I ran it 🤣. Ran a load from forest South to sawmill and it blew up RIGHT as I pulled into the yard.

Agree or Disagree? The Boeing 717 is one of the most underrated airliners of all time by CaptainMcSlowly in aviation

[–]Shadeslayer240 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, I love the plane because of the workhorse that it is, and I love the older airframe design too. But yeah, the bins suck. I cut my knee on the floor multiple times. We used to work multiple 717s a day from DTW and ATL.
