Fly switching and dutch dropping are the same thing done on opposite sides of the car. one is done by pulling the car and releasing the coupler and the other is from pushing the car and releasing the coupler. I mean they're "technically " different things but it's basically the same thing.
@@Hyce777 Dutch dropping a car is when you are pulling it toward a facing point switch. You get things up to a moderate speed, running toward the switch with a guy waiting there. You pull the pin on the car, accelerate the locomotive, and hope there's time for the man on the ground to throw the switch after the locomotive passes and before the car gets there. This would be for when the switch is facing the wrong way for the engine to simply back the car into the spur, and when there is no convenient place to run the car around to get it on the other side of the engine.
@@thaddeusthudpucker4175 that is fly switching. The other is Kicking cars, uncoupling and then stopping the locomotive and letting the car "coast" into where you want, applying the handbrake when its in position.
Nice to see more of the ES&DT in its new home. Something tells me the overworked crews are getting ready for their short Christmas break, before attempting to get all of the engines unstuck from a legendary snowstorm.
23:24 A bit of advice, Hyce. Selecting the car at the end of the cut you want to uncouple(or the car right next to it) and hitting "Follow" makes the uncoupling job a LOT easier!
Pro tip: you can shift-click the coupler to automatically close the angle cocks and bottle the air on a cut of cars. I am sure this trick will come in quite handy for you :)
Welcome back to bringing a choo choo to its knees with this episode of how much can this choo choo pull and a special segment of let’s not anialate the passengers.
Watching Hyce comply with all the intersection signal laws in a video game really amazes me. I'm sure he doesn't have to do it, but it adds such a special magic to the whole thing.
it's really funny to watch him blow for the crossings and everything while running unaired passenger cars and then kicking them with passengers in them
To be able to use the switch list. first you have to go to the crews menu. Create a crew and assign yourself to it. Then either you can go to the operations menu for a car and click "on switch list" or from the station agent window freight tab check the switch list box for the cargo you want to add to your list.
Happy Holidays! I'm currently working on a recreation of the Colorado Railroad Museum in Minecraft. 491, 20, and Thomas have their models completed, with coaches underway. On my channel's community tab, I'll post some updates regarding this and other maps in the works, such as the Strasburg Railroad! Hope you can check out the progress! Sincerely, Tetsu Update from 12/30: All models are completed, ballast and ties have been placed down for the main loop, no agua switch, and table mountain spur, the roundhouse has finished construction, and many more things! Haven't posted any pics yet though...
@hyce dunno if anyone has said, but the shift-click to attach air, works for couplers too, shift-click couplers to decouple and the angle cocks will be shut automatically.
I have A LOT of hours in this game already even just in single player. I haven't opened up anything past Bryson yet, but It is very enjoyable. The Dev's have done a good job so far with this game.
Merry Christmas, Hice, and a happy new year and safe real life railroading to you and all your friends and family! P.S. to add cars to your switch list in Railroader, you ctrl click on a car and select operations, and there will be a box you can click that says "on switch list." That will add the car to the switch list. Once the car is delivered, the switch list will cross the car out, but you have to X out the car in order to totally remove it from the switch list.
ctrl + shift click selects the loco. makes jumping around to different locos so much easier as you don't have to use that window to take control of a loco.
26:25 with the switch list you need to make a crew. You do that in you company overview tab. Create new crew add your character and anyone else you want. Then you have to go station to station and check a box under the station freight tab. It’s a lot easier then control clicking or tab and hovering over everything.
33:50 If I remember correctly, then the difference between a drop and a dutch drop is the direction of the switch: diverging or merging. if the loco has to stop and reverse out of the way, it's a dutch drop.
To get a switch list you have to go to the operations portion of the car and click on the box to add it to the switch list. Also if you shift click on the gladhands or the coupler it automatically closes/opens the angle cocks.
The weirdest game loop connection just popped up watching this, it sorta feels like the Mudrunner/Snowrunner loop. You start with a small portion of the map open and accessible, you have to scout around for loads, tasks and tractors, so you can see what needs to go where with what so you unlock more access and so on. It's an oddly satisfying game loop that just feels so rewarding when a difficult unlock are completed, with so many different challenges in between every completed tasks. There too you have access to an AI driver, sort of. You just have to be connected with a winch to the other vehicle and it can follow you around offroading, giving support or aid whenever you drop yourself and/or the load in the doodoo. This game just seems to have that increased skill level needed that I feel like I don't have, with all the small details required for steam locomotive operation as just one of the many hurdles needed to cross. Fascinating to watch, but just seems too involved for my taste.
This game fills the gap that RailroadsOnlin has: you get problems that need solving but you didn't create on your own and for your own goals. Also you can't solve them by changing the rails or deleting cars. More constraints means more head scratching and more reward if done well.
I really dig this game but there are just a few things I really like. When applying automatic brake you can see the the icons in the bottom left slowly fill out. The sw1 seems pretty realistic but I’m not sure about pulling power. We have one in our shop and I’ll have to compare interiors. I don’t like the independent air system though. It doesn’t seem super realistic. Other than that I love it!
I think it’s cool you’ve been giving this game some solid playtime despite making your own game. I’ve personally been really enjoying Railroader, it’s a huge step up from Railroads Online (puke). Railroader and Derail Valley are both pretty fun in different ways right now. I can’t wait for Century of Steam! Edit: and no offense if you were part of the development team of RO, I honestly can’t remember. Obviously you’re on to bigger and better things
Do you think the passenger cars were able to get air because that engine may have been "broken" but was still supplying it. It looks like it was under steam but number 1 wasnt as it was out of water and coal.
part of me watching this is like "Ho-ly Jesus...how the FUCK can ANYONE fuck up this bad?!?" while another part of my brain is like "Hmm...yes...chaos."
see, what you're doing with the coaches here is turning them into SLIP coaches - which was a real thing on the Great Western Railway. The train could keep going without stopping. All passengers getting off at a specific stop would be in the same car. The cars would be ordered in the consist in reverse order of the station stops. When you approached a station, you'd slow down a little, then uncouple the car at the rear, then continue on. There would be a brakeman in that car that would use the handbrake to control the speed of the kicked car and stop it at the station. SLIP COACHES!!!
Merry Christmas, Hyce! I am still trying to determine if any of the old railroad equipment I spent so long collecting in my teens and early 20s is intact and literally not just left outside rusting in the elements of Custer, SD. I know somewhere I have a railroad lantern (an actual one, not a barn lantern that every game gets wrong) and a big thick gray switch lock with both original key and some chain that both have “D&RGW” stamped in them (though the lock is currently seized up) and maybe even an engineer’s oil can like what you keep above your fire door that I think is also weld marked “D&RG” without the W. And thanks to one of your recent videos I have identified as a steam pressure gauge for a boiler that is made out of brass (no shine to it, it’s dull currently) that reads up to what I think is 130-150 PSI (if I remember right?) and is fully intact, thick glass included. There are no markings on it, but it looked similar in ways (I thought) to the one you have in #20. It is about 12-15” tall? It could be years before things with my family is sorted out and I can get back there from St. Louis, but I intend on rescuing as much as I can and driving it straight to you guys at the Colorado Railroad Museum, anything you guys identify as being linked to Colorado will be donated on the spot as well as anything that could be of use, even anything you guys working there would want for yourself that would not fit with the museum I will be happy to give as a gift. I just want to see things preserved and in a place or with people who I know will take care of it properly. Fingers crossed that when I say “Merry Christmas!” in 2024, it will include the news that Santa will be by in summer 2025 with said gifts!
Well thank you my friend! I am sure the museum would love artifacts such as those, and if they are already represented in the collection I'm certain you'd have takers out of any of our crew. You are quite kind! :)
Hey man, my little boy is almost two and he's obsessed with trains all of a sudden, walks around going choochoo! Lol. Anyways we will be in Colorado over the holidays in the Denver/winterpark area and I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what train rides or train museums to check out while we are there! You still work at some train ride place or something right?
Gotta love that! The Colorado Railroad Museum is of course a wonderful place to check out - it is where I work part time. These days were are running sold-out Polar Express though, but the trains are fun to climb in and see. Nearby Denver, the Georgetown Loop is also offering christmas train rides I believe. Have fun! :)
Definitely a relaxing but brain tantalizing game. It's definitely addicting once you get going and dont realize how long youve been playing for. Maybe get kAN to join you maybe either way love to see more.
Unless someone would like to enlighten us, I'm pretty sure "Dutch Drop" and "Flying Switch" are interchangeable. I've used them interchangeably too and no one's ever corrected me. Anyway, I've been doing it way too much in this game and it's too much fun damn it lol
Our diesel's (Australia) I think took inspiration from your SD38's and SD40's. So the WAGR L class = SD40, H class diesel = SD38. The C class would be the closest to an evolution series locomotive or an SD70. In my opinion.
Dear Mark this is the ICC you have set a new record for ICC volitions in a extremely short time your fine is 2000000000000 if not paid your Huber 6 chime ,gto and game PC will be taken as collateral until debt is paid in full thank you and also we have trail cams all along the right of way have a nice day
Glad to see I'm not the only one who lets the AI run over the road. Frees me up to focus on switching elsewhere, and frankly my road running isn't that great. Haven't oversped a curve yet...somehow.
To use the switch list you must create a crew in the "i" menu and then once having joined the crew you may add and remove cars from your switch list via ctrl clicking each car.
Hey Hyce, I have a story for “citation needed” of an incident that took place at my local rail yard. Who do I contact? I have been researching this incident and I am pleased to say the real story has finally been brought to light and it’s a good one. I think the 3/4 idiots will like it a lot.
Lol, I let one run out of water and the other one had a weird glitch by hitting the bumper at the end of track. It was at slow speed too, but it threw everything off.
Question guys! What or how can i determine at what interchange cars for jobs spawn? i just unlocked bryson thinking i can use it as a new place to start the jobs. But everything still spawns (also bryson jobs) at whittier interchange.
18:00 "Gallon of water is 8 pounds. Ish. IIRC." Oh the sound of freedom =D I'll stay with 1 litre being 1 cubic decimetre and having a mass of 1 kg in the case of water, thank you very much xD
Freedom units don't make a hell of a lot of sense... lol! I looked it up after to see if my number would be ballpark and its something like 8.324 lbs / gallon. Stupid. Lol
@@Hyce777 I understand you are a mechanical engineer and as a soon to be fellow german engineer might i ask: Are you guys using imperial or metric in engineering in the US?
you have been using dutch drop wrong and as punishment you should start doing them in derail valley. the pucker factor is high when you do em in realistic mode
Fascinating game, the only things putting me off buying it are the price ($30 seems a bit high for early access) and all the absent assets. That many missing structures and few visible loads makes it look a bit unfinished
@@Darthalamus Yes, but for $30 I'd prefer it to look at least a little more complete. On the positive side, from what I've heard it's stable and the core gameplay is complete
@@andrewreynolds4949 I agree the pricing is disputable. Although i think i read somewhere that new Assets to make the map feel more alive and realistic are one of the things that the devs will do soon.

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh. Which is which? That makes sense.

@@SirLANsalot The thing about Kicking is you stop the locomotive, while the other two are done while the locomotive is still in motion.
I've been playing way too much of this game. It very much scratches the itch of a model railroad operations simulation.
Exactly the sort of itch I want scratched. Gonna have to pick this up.
Nice to see more of the ES&DT in its new home. Something tells me the overworked crews are getting ready for their short Christmas break, before attempting to get all of the engines unstuck from a legendary snowstorm.
~20 on the rgs intensifies~
I mean, too real... lol!
@@Hyce777 it's only a little snow right? ~meanwhile the whole town of ridgeway getting stuck in the snow..again~
@@Hyce777*Chomps cigar* “The first man to get me a coffee gets a r-r-r-raise.” (Or schnapps.)

23:24 A bit of advice, Hyce. Selecting the car at the end of the cut you want to uncouple(or the car right next to it) and hitting "Follow" makes the uncoupling job a LOT easier!
I have been waiting for you to make a singleplayer series forever!! Cant wait to see where this goes!
Thank you Will, much appreciated and glad you enjoyed!
It amuses me the degree to which Hyce uses railroad games as an outlet for all the dangerous stuff he doesn't get to do on the real railroad.
Pro tip: you can shift-click the coupler to automatically close the angle cocks and bottle the air on a cut of cars. I am sure this trick will come in quite handy for you :)
the reverse is also possible, when coupling up, just SHIFT + CLICK on the gladhands instead to open the valves.
Thanks, but pretty sure Hyce already knows this. Heck, he did it when coupling up to the cars at the Sylva Interchange
"Poor choochoo."
(whistle) "HEY!"
I died laughing at this, lmao
>:) more destruction
Don't worry, it wasn't kicking passenger cars they're just ES&DT slip coaches
Every coach is a slip coach when you have automatic couplers.
Jeez, you're beating that Ten Wheeler almost as bad as the C&NW treated 1385 (also a Ten Wheeler) during the "Goodwill Tour" back in the 80's.

The ES&DT: We measure success in flattened brakemen!
going back to the beginning to listen to the podcast while I start a new save... wow the game has come a long way in a year.
I’m so addicted to this game that I needed to relearn the keybinds of every single other game I have.
Hi Mark, sad choo choos now happy choo choos! Railroader lots of fun. Thx and cheers! 😂
@hyce dunno if anyone has said, but the shift-click to attach air, works for couplers too, shift-click couplers to decouple and the angle cocks will be shut automatically.
More beans! Fun puzzle to watch
I have A LOT of hours in this game already even just in single player. I haven't opened up anything past Bryson yet, but It is very enjoyable. The Dev's have done a good job so far with this game.
I agree, when you start scaling up a bit more it can be a ton of fun.
Hyce, you have watched Ed Dickens way to much on making that whistle sing! 🤣
Happy to see you back at it!
Finally Railroader ep 1 ❤❤
Early team with a cup in hand. Let's go choo-choo train, I need more iron in my diet.

I would so like to play this game at some point. Also like the new outro. Keep it up, love the work you do!
Hooray ES&D! Quote of the day: “Math hard”
To get a switch list you have to go to the operations portion of the car and click on the box to add it to the switch list. Also if you shift click on the gladhands or the coupler it automatically closes/opens the angle cocks.
You can also go to a passenger station click Freight and then add cars to the switch shift there. You must be part of a crew first.
I hope they add a 2-2-2 locomotive

Fascinating to watch, but just seems too involved for my taste.
no no, hes got a point.
Just a regular day in the ES&DT railroad
If you shift + left click the coupler it closes the air valves allowing you to kick cars.
Kicking and dutch dropping in this game is way too much fun on my friend's save, can't wait to see what happens next on the ES&DT!
This game fills the gap that RailroadsOnlin has: you get problems that need solving but you didn't create on your own and for your own goals.
Also you can't solve them by changing the rails or deleting cars. More constraints means more head scratching and more reward if done well.
i'll be honest...i never thought about trying to fly switch. this could have saved me so much time lmao
Graphics looks great. I just bought this game while watching this video.

Edit: and no offense if you were part of the development team of RO, I honestly can’t remember. Obviously you’re on to bigger and better things
I discovered recently that if you shift click the coupler it will do the air and the coupler at the same time.
wooooooooooooooo more hyce content
What´s happened with the co-up with Kan????
kAN has some things he's going through, so he's tied up rn, but hopefully soon they can continue the playthrough.
ES&DT brings me penn central vibes
Do you think the passenger cars were able to get air because that engine may have been "broken" but was still supplying it. It looks like it was under steam but number 1 wasnt as it was out of water and coal.
The easiest way to put cars on the switch list is from the freight tab at the station agents window.
part of me watching this is like "Ho-ly Jesus...how the FUCK can ANYONE fuck up this bad?!?" while another part of my brain is like "Hmm...yes...chaos."
The ES&DT lived up to its name
Well, in spite of how that consist was, that was a surprising success, colour me surprised and impressed
It wouldnt be the ES&D(T) without a "wtf" consist.
PS: the new outro background is nice
Thank you! I am glad you enjoy. :)

Wowaa 🤘🤘
Bro literally coupled the freight cars slower than he did the fully loaded passenger cars😂
The map loading in chunks may look a bit wonky, but its interesting to see the way they built the game, and what they may be thinking longer term
I love this game and want to see more of it please!
Perfection
An Average ESNDT day. (Wheezes in steam)
If you shift click the knuckle when dropping off stuff it will unlock the knuckle and bottle the air

Switchlist is a toggle on one of the menus, gotta go through each car to toggle it.
What strikes me is how calm your voice is compared to when you play derail valley!
Because he's not the one crashing and it has so much less consequences XD
I wait for the day hyce comes out with railroader videos
That day has come.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who lets the AI run over the road. Frees me up to focus on switching elsewhere, and frankly my road running isn't that great. Haven't oversped a curve yet...somehow.
the brake thing is a case of an engine being coupled to the coaches.
Awesome!
To use the switch list you must create a crew in the "i" menu and then once having joined the crew you may add and remove cars from your switch list via ctrl clicking each car.
Interesting, thank you! I won't use this next time because next time is pre-recorded, but I'll see if I can remember for the time after that :D
@Hyce777 No problem, man, happy I could help!
I’d love to see more Railroader
You shall!
As the train simulation needs work, and could be better, the management system is a Awsome start
It has trying in it now neat
what happened to steam and steel?
So. If the ES&D is the D&RG and the ES&DT is the D&RGW. what is the rio grande western in this AU?
Hey Hyce, I have a story for “citation needed” of an incident that took place at my local rail yard. Who do I contact? I have been researching this incident and I am pleased to say the real story has finally been brought to light and it’s a good one. I think the 3/4 idiots will like it a lot.

Apologies about this but how in the manufacturer did you Wreck 2 steam trains leaving one left?
Lol, I let one run out of water and the other one had a weird glitch by hitting the bumper at the end of track. It was at slow speed too, but it threw everything off.
How are your trains so brown all the time?
you start with 8 log cars now
Question guys! What or how can i determine at what interchange cars for jobs spawn? i just unlocked bryson thinking i can use it as a new place to start the jobs. But everything still spawns (also bryson jobs) at whittier interchange.
I think the interchange is always at the east end of the railroad until you get to Andrews? I am not sure.
AH its probabbly still whittier for me because i havent bought the track to ela. @@Hyce777
what happened to the Colorado and Canadian?
What whistle is on the #2? It sounds beautiful.
"NYC 5" according to the game. Sounds like a D&RGW 5 to me.
@Hyce777 I was going to say, that it sounded like a D&RGW 5 chime. I almost thought you made your own mod already. Haha.
831 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt.
18:00 "Gallon of water is 8 pounds. Ish. IIRC." Oh the sound of freedom =D I'll stay with 1 litre being 1 cubic decimetre and having a mass of 1 kg in the case of water, thank you very much xD
Freedom units don't make a hell of a lot of sense... lol! I looked it up after to see if my number would be ballpark and its something like 8.324 lbs / gallon. Stupid. Lol
@@Hyce777 I understand you are a mechanical engineer and as a soon to be fellow german engineer might i ask: Are you guys using imperial or metric in engineering in the US?
@@Sweetw4ter it depends.... I've used both. It's more imperial honestly than metric
It's hard to see with the shaders
you have been using dutch drop wrong and as punishment you should start doing them in derail valley.
the pucker factor is high when you do em in realistic mode
I'm almost committed to picking this game up...
For my criticality of it, it is fun.
I thought a gallon of water weighed 10 lbs not 8.
8 x 20 fl oz divided by 16 oz.
Why is there a place named “Whittier”? I’m getting flashbacks
bought the game from your gameplay.
PLS make this a legit series, I have the game its awesome
More plz
Fascinating game, the only things putting me off buying it are the price ($30 seems a bit high for early access) and all the absent assets. That many missing structures and few visible loads makes it look a bit unfinished
Like you just said, the game IS in early access...
@@Darthalamus Yes, but for $30 I'd prefer it to look at least a little more complete. On the positive side, from what I've heard it's stable and the core gameplay is complete
it is unfinished. they released it at this stage because i presume they need the money
@@andrewreynolds4949 I agree the pricing is disputable. Although i think i read somewhere that new Assets to make the map feel more alive and realistic are one of the things that the devs will do soon.
@@Sweetw4ter Yeah, I think I heard the have a bit of a bottleneck with their modelling team not able to work quite as fast as their programmer
