    Travelled on this line many times in 1990 as a young recruit in the Royal Marines. Would’ve been nice to have stopped there once again 😝. Thanks for posting. Really enjoy your videos 👍

    Most beautiful part of the country. Beautiful line, excellent train
    (I love pacers lol), excellent video.

    Just a note Phill, the guys in the orange high viz jackets are there to mark where 2 car trains should stop at St Davids. Excellent video as always.

    Thank you for this video, letting me know of the existence of this route.
    My dad used to live close by the railway station in Exmouth, and a couple of years ago, i was driving around Exeter in train simulator when my dad called.
    I said that i was driving a train near Exeter, and he immediately asked if Exmouth was also included.
    Unfortunally i had to tell him; no, but now i can say (and show him after the corona thing is done) that actually Exmouth is made into the game!
    So thanks a ton for this :D Ofcourse i immediately downloaded the route :D

  • @robsrailvids8170
    @robsrailvids8170 6 лет назад +1

    Superb video as usual, thankyou. A route I am familiar with from holidays in the region. Also, inspire me to drive more in the cab & attempt to drive without the hud. Once again, many thanks.

    • @PTGRail
      @PTGRail  6 лет назад

      Awesome! I hope you enjoy your attempts at driving without the HUD! :)

  • @jameshunt1516
    @jameshunt1516 3 года назад +1

    Your knowledge of these routes is excellent. I've tried driving on train Sim without the HUD before but I usually don't stop for the stations in time. How long do you spend practising each route before making a video?

  • @Synnystershy
    @Synnystershy 6 лет назад +1

    Fun Fact: Members of the public are allowed to get off at Lympstone Commando. Even though there are signs saying "Persons who slight here just only have business with the camp", the station is open to the public. The station is property of Network Rail so the Ministry of Defence can't prohibit people entering or leaving the station.

    If this sim was very accurate you'd get a sore bum after sitting a few miles, and a cold draught from the ill fitting doors from the rattle-trap those pacers are 😁

    • @dominichartley5537
      @dominichartley5537 5 лет назад

      Haha true! The route in real life is a little bouncy on a Pacer. Not as bad as it looks on Train Sim

    • @jameshunt1516
      @jameshunt1516 3 года назад

      The pacers are not that bad. In fact I love the pacers.

      @jamesfallon2700 2 года назад

      Oh also, just a quick note, you may know the 2 request stops on this route which are Lympstone Commando and Exton and the departure boards have this symbol: (x). Just wanted to tell you that as I forgot to before

  • @beazely94
    @beazely94 5 лет назад +1

    How do you get the sounds of the AP 142 pack to apply to the 143 ?? My 143's still have the bad quality sounds

  • @HarryBennellick
    @HarryBennellick 6 лет назад +2

    Firstly, the AP sounds added to this unit have broken the brakes, I'm not sure why.
    Also, the signalling between Exeter Central and Exeter St Davids is wrong, in reality, the signal situated at the platform at Exeter Central should not change from a danger aspect until the other train has been cleared of the platforms at Exeter St Davids, but in the game it would change to a proceed aspect once the train has passed the signal just before the platform at Exeter St Davids, which is wrong and would most certainly cause SPADs due to the steep downhill gradient. Because of this, there is a two aspect signal at the end of the platforms at Exeter Central towards Exeter St Davids so it cannot display an amber aspect, so no trains can leave Exeter Central until a train has cleared the platform at Exeter St Davids.

  • @PTGRail
    @PTGRail  6 лет назад +13

    Just one note for this video:
    If anyone can explain to me why the brakes on this train are so broken, I'd love to know!

    • @barry3974
      @barry3974 6 лет назад

      PTGRail It seems that there is a bug in DTG Class143 brakes. Sometimes the brakes can’t be released after a external camera.

    • @simonkirkbright5197
      @simonkirkbright5197 6 лет назад

      I am not sure but I think the fault actually exists on the trains themselves, they CAN run out of reservoir air.

  • @Meehan2023

    Hi, can you teach me how to download this route? Since I want to drive the Exmouth to Paignton service and i don’t want to download all the other routes bec I don’t have much money.

  • @jamestaylor6760
    @jamestaylor6760 6 лет назад +1

    The presentation in your videos is very good. How about simulating the route between London Paddington(or somewhere), and Penzance? I’ve been on that route myself. It’s very scenic and includes southern Dartmoor, the Tamar Bridge and valley, Bodmin Moor and parts of the Cornish coastline

    • @PTGRail
      @PTGRail  6 лет назад +1

      Unfortunately, only the route as far as Plymouth is currently simulated. Once the Penzance section is released, then rest assured I will be covering the full route from Paddington! :)

    Great little video on a lovely route! I prefer driving a Class 150 along that branch line, as that Class 143 Pacer does my head in.

    • @PTGRail
      @PTGRail  6 лет назад

      I also much prefer the 150. I only used the 143 as it was yet to appear in any of my videos! :)

  • @drenahmeti22
    @drenahmeti22 6 лет назад

    GWR policy is 15mph until the cab is out of the platform, if I remember correctly, so the start at Exmouth was quite sprightly, to say the least ;)

    • @southwesttrainspotting7636
      @southwesttrainspotting7636 6 лет назад

      drenahmeti22 Do you have a source to state this?

    • @drenahmeti22
      @drenahmeti22 6 лет назад

      South West Trainspotting Ask any GWR driver, I could put in a FOIA request for the driver policy, but go on a GWR train, and you’ll see what I mean!

    • @PTGRail

      I would have travelled at that speed had the route creator made it so on the HUD! :p

  • @jameshunt1516
    @jameshunt1516 3 года назад

    I noticed that this sounds just like the class142 and not the 143. The default class 143 sounds do not sound realistic but I prefer The engine idle sounds on the class 143.

    Question: When you said "standard westcode brake", does that mean you are referring to a company called westcode? Or is westcode a term for something with the brakes? Are their other companies that make brakes for UK trains too?

    @TicTacTrolleyServiceTico 6 лет назад

    Two Questions PTG. 1. How do you create a custom simulation based on a real life timetabled service? 2. How to get that quality because i've got my graphics to maximum and yet it looks like TS2015. Also great video.

    • @PTGRail
      @PTGRail  6 лет назад +1

      Hello there! I use www.realtimetrains.co.uk for the timetables. As for the graphical quality, I have all settings to maximum, TSX turned on, and the antialiasing setting to the 2x2 setting. :)

  • @Smurch1970
    @Smurch1970 6 лет назад

    Now I have watched this video I have spotted some mistakes with the Route. The signals in the topsham Area are all wrong. As you approach the bridge that the Railway passes over there should be a distant signal just before the bridge. The signal just before Topsham should be approach controlled Signal. As you pass over the points when leaving Topsham there should be a approach control signal there to. As you approach newcout station there should be a distant signal on the opposite side of the platform facing topsham Direction. As you go under the two bridges when approaching Poslo bridge station the second bridge has no supports. Poslo bridge station has the wrong model in TS in real life the station looks completely different. When you approach exeter st David's the last signal is supposed to be approach control signal.
