I've noticed recently that, particularly in the "Ugly Trains" threads, there are a lot of arguments going on about which country has the best trains - mostly UK and US comparisons, and mostly by the same group of fairly new members - though a few more seasoned names have been spotted. While I...

I'm considering getting a new graphics card for my computer (the current one being about seven years old and with a tiny amount of memory) and I wanted to ask something - Would it be better to go for a fast card with half a gigabyte of memory or a slower one that has 1gig of memory? Cheers...

I found this was on the news when I logged into Yahoo this morning (in a list of 10 companies hit by the recession): Just thought someone may be interested.

I've just thought of a game - You post the abbreviated railroad name and the next person to come along has to post a daft version of what they could be called - For example (a well known one in the UK) - LNER - Late and Never EaRly - Get it? I'll start... F&WHR (Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland...

Well, I've had an idea (Actually, I thought it up nearly a year ago, but I was reminded of it watching THUNDERBIRDS). I call it the overtram. I've made a video about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYGOKhE8hIE I will be making a demonstration route in Trainz, of course. Well, that is, when...

http://wheadcarz.webs.com/ This is my new website, dedicated to the new vans, trucks etc... I have been making. Examples of my work can be found here: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showthread.php?t=49631 http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showthread.php?t=49635...

Well, I've started making low-poly road vehicles. See here for the step vans I've already made: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showthread.php?t=49480 I've made this thread for in-game screenshots of my vehicles. I'll post on the freeware announcements progress and releases. First up, some...

Sorry, 18 pictures is too many for the Freeware announcements section. I've put them here instead. I've made a 302 poly step-van, and have reskinned it into many different liveries, with more on the way. First, a line-up: They are (In order left-right 1st pic right-left 2nd pic): Amtrak...

Well, I just thought this up as an idea for all those who, like me, enjoy making a history behind their railways. So, post your railway's history, and maybe a story or two. Has anything ghostly happened on your railway? :eek: Cheers, Chris:wave:

I have a teensy-weensy problem with the DHR 'B' class. They all work fine when placed in servayor (I can never spell that right :(), but when tying to drive, they come up with an error massage an the session closes, switching back to servayor. I can't remember this at the moment, but I'll get...

OK guys, don't mess this one up. I'll start: (all 2ft gauge) 'Vale of Gochwyn' 'Jerry' Pierre (I think that's how you spell it?) And a rather large Mallet. As I said, don't blow it, and of course keep all comments friendly. I hope this one works out! Chris :wave:

This is a little route I've been making for a while now, on and off, and I've decided I want to show off a bit. It's called the Vale of Gochwyn railway, it's 2ft gauge (of course!) and it's based in north Wales. It's my best route yet, I think! I'm not getting over-ambitious with it, unlike all...

Yes, I know, we haven't got much and we aren't terribly good at Gmax, but I thought I might as well start it anyway. I'd love to see our 24ngtrainzers content in action on your routes, so please, if you have any screenies of our content, put them here so we can all see. I'll get the ball...

Me and schoolhater have started a site. Have a look. I dare ya. 24ngtrainzers.webs.com

I see the forums haven't yet adapted to the hour change then...
