BR 9F Coming Soon To Train Simulator 2015!

The BR 9F has been announced on Dovetail Game's RailSimulator.com Facebook page. Good to see a steam loco in my opinion as almost all DLC nowadays is modern trains.

Tml-Studios have just released the new screenhots promised for today showingMets - Willets Point / 111 St / 103 St / Junction Boulevard stations with the information pasted below.


Mets - Willets Point
This is an overground station that is unique with its layout in the New York subway network. Three platforms with three tracks have the following layout: side platform, south bound local track, bidirectional express track, island platform, north bound local track, side platform (only used during game days). Passengers are able to change for bus service or the LIRR.



111th Street
This overground station is only served by local trains that stop at the side platforms. Between the two local tracks are another two tracks leading to the "Corona Yard", the home of the 7 line trains. The express trains "fly" over the other four tracks. Check out the pictures to see what exactly is meant. ;-) Passengers are able to change for bus service.



 103rd Street - Corona Plaza
This overground station is only served by local trains that stop at the side platforms. The express trains rush by on the center track. The station was opened in 1917 and was previously called "Alburtis Avenue". Passengers are able to change for bus service.




Junction Boulevard
This is an overground station with two platforms and three tracks. The local trains stop at the outer tracks and the express trains on the inner track. There's not much more to say about this station, except that it was previously called "Junction Avenue" until 1940. Passengers are able to change for bus service.

Train Simulator 2016 *Not* To Use Unreal engine

An apparent member of Dovetail Games staff has said in post on Reddit that internally they are not targeting having the Unreal Engine version of Train Simulator ready in late 2015. Under the name 'Whiterider1' they added that it is possible though if most things are finished on time or early. They also said that Dovetail Games are likely to include backwards compatibility with older versions of Railworks and that one of the main things they were working on is getting the software to able to run on more PCs through optimization hopefully meaning that it will finally include multi-core processor support. Despite this I would still say that backwards that backwards compatibility (while more likely) still seems unlikely with it most likely being sold as separate software through Steam.

As well as this  'Whiterider1' answered many more questions including one about a Channel Tunnel route by saying that they are no plans to make one as 20 minutes of it would be in a tunnel pointing out that people complained about how much of London To Faversham was in tunnels, and hinted at more steam routes coming in the future as well as much more you can read for yourself at: http://www.reddit.com/r/nerdcubed/comments/2iav61/nerd%C2%B3_plays_train_simulator_2015/

This person was confirmed by the moderators of the "Nerdcubed" subreddit  as being from Dovetail Games other than that I have no other evidence.
