I work on the apt on Saturday at Crewe Heritage Centre we lifted the front up to see the buffers and managed to pull and turn one buffer but as u can imagine everything is basically seized so lots of wd40 😂
London Flareon 火のキティ Not really, was more made up by the press of the time after they had too much to drink. After re-introduction in the mid 80s it was said to be firm and smooth, although the Government no longer had confidence in it (since they wanted to privatise British Rail anyway) so scrapped it
He was talking bout in-game, not real life. Though it's hard to differentiate (if you haven't heard about the matter) a comment talking bout the real life or the game. Edit: Now that I've seen the video, so yes it still shakes on curves but maybe because he's zoomed out so the shake doesn't seem as violent as it use to in other vids.
In game it definitely does, especially on routes it wasn't designed for when you're at a higher speed limit (from CAPT) than when at normal speed limits
While in your steam library, right click on train sim and choose properties, while in the 'general' tab click on 'set launch options' and paste in -SetFOV=85
The Pendolino has gone up to 145mph, but that is still 10mph slower than the APT’s design speed and 17mph slower than it’s record speed. Also, the Pendolino has a max design speed of 140mph, whilst the APT has a design speed of 155mph
If you use Train Simulator as a base to test reality's performance, then the TGV A150 (was it? Can't remember) surely can go upto 600km/h. Go watch a vid on it someone had created.
For the APT project. There was an APT-E which tests the tilting mechanisms, then there's this APT-P which tests the operability (which failed at first) and there was gonna be APT-S which is the production-service model. If I'm not mistaken the APT-S was gonna be similar to Intercity 225 in design.
