Welcome aboard the newly released China Railways CRH1A Trainset for Train Simulator 2014. This video showcases the tutorial scenario where you will learn how to operate the CRH1A along with how to interpret the signal system present along the Chinese High Speed Rail Line. More scenarios coming soon. Enjoy =)

This route is available as payware here: http://www.fspilotshop.com/simtech-vision-chengdu-suining-highspeed-route-p-4785.html
 
With the P42DC Re-released (http://store.steampowered.com/app/222627/), I was finally able to play around with it:


List of mods I have made so far:

1. Change RPM range to 468 - 1047 and adjusted fuel consumption rates based on information here: http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287.

2. Adjust Tractive Effort down to real world values.

3. Adjust Braking Effort curve to simulate realism.

4. Adjust amp limits so that the in cab ammeter displays properly.

5. Increased weight from 121 tons to 130 tons to simulate fully loaded locomotive

6. Increased fuel capacity from 1800 gallons to 2200 gallons.

7. Increased air brake application and release rates. Original rates are painfully and unrealistically slow.

Executing a perfect stop from 100 mph (160 km/h) coming into New Brunswick on the Northeast Corridor. Consist is a P42DC double header towing 12 Amfleet Cars. This showcases the skill required in balancing out maximum dynamic braking and also knowing when to apply full brake pressure to cruise to a perfect stop point.
 
Hello,

Many thanks for your videos, I really enjoy them.

Your last ones were a very good news for me, the P42 for TS2014 was available !

I am still a newbie with TS2014 and I wondered how do you modify the parameters of your engines ?

Are there good tutorials over there ?

Thanks again,

Yes, I would think if you searched enough, you would be able to find tutorials or information on how to modify locomotive parameters. That's how I learned anyways. Trial and error.
