02:24:34  <Odin> Huh. Updated to NARS 2.5, the issues I was having with it are gone
02:25:01  <Odin> Right now I've got mainline freight handled by Challengers in 14 length trains, and express passenger pulled by 4-4-4-4 duplexes also at 14 length
02:25:05  <Odin> and all trains profitable
02:29:22  <Odin> And now that I think about it, that 4-4-4-4 duplex in NARS is actually the PRR T1, a rigid-frame duplex locomotive prone to violent wheelslip even at speed where most steam engines only face wheel slip when starting a heavy load
02:58:14  *** Biolunar_ [Biolunar@x4d083b59.dyn.telefonica.de] has joined #openttd
02:59:44  <Flygon> Odin: I thought the wheelslip was due to careless drivers?
03:00:21  <Odin> No, even experienced drivers have it happen from time to time
03:00:46  <Odin> Its really not all that different from a burnout in a modern vehicle- you've applied more torque to the driving wheels than they have the friction to transmit
03:01:12  <Odin> But some engines are more likely to have it happen than others due to weight distribution, engine torque and balance, and rail conditions
03:01:41  <Flygon> I thought the wheelslip issues was due to the fact that the two sets of driving wheels would 'desynchronize'?
03:02:13  <Odin> The difference is where a car it will almost always stop when you let off the throttle, some designs of steam engine you can't close the throttle quickly enough, and even after closing it there is a delay period where the pipes are still full of steam- or the boiler has primed and water turning into steam is in the throttle pipe
03:02:17  <Odin> No.
03:02:34  <Odin> Duplex and Ariticulated engines have no synchronization between the two engines in the designs I've seen at least
03:03:12  <Flygon> Well, yeah
03:03:12  <Odin> Whereas each driving set is on a rigid axle- left and right cylinders are always 90 degrees apart to guarantee dead-standstill starting torque
03:03:19  <Flygon> That's why the driver had to keep the sync manually
03:03:44  <Odin> If the engines aren't slipping, whatever sync they had would be more or less preserved throughout the run
03:03:57  <Flygon> Hmm
03:04:08  <Odin> Usually though one engine would break traction and run away, and on the duplex and articulated engines this was much harder to detect and compensate for
03:04:10  <Flygon> I admit I've never tried to drive a duplex myself, soooooo
03:04:32  <Odin> Whereas a single driver steam engine, you could hear the rapid increase in chuffing as a dead giveaway
03:04:52  <Odin> I've never driven steam myself, I'm just an old fan and have spent a fair bit of time studying the matter

03:05:44  <Odin> Along similar lines, it kinda interests me that locomotives prone to runaway didn't have flyball governors fitted
03:06:10  <Odin> On stationary engines, the flyball governor is used to make sure the engine runs at a constant speed under varable load.
03:06:16  <Flygon> Part of me haas wondered
03:06:28  <Odin> in a locomotive, having such a governor would prevent a runaway from reaching destructive speeds- as it would choke off the engine's steam supply
03:06:29  <Flygon> What'd have happened if we got to the point where we had computer assisted steam locos
03:06:41  <Odin> lol. We might find out.
03:06:55  <Flygon> As in, no fireman, so it used those spiral things to move through coal (like the H-class here)
03:06:58  <Odin> One BIG advantage of steam currently matched by no other prime mover is complete versaility of fuel
03:07:06  <Flygon> Or just plain burned oil/Diesel (like... a LOT of VR stuff)
03:07:07  <Odin> eh
03:07:18  <Odin> These days a lot of steam excursion engines are fitted for oil
03:07:27  <Flygon> We converted a LOT of stuff to Oil in the 1940s
03:07:30  <Odin> Simplifies the logistics- the engine burns the same oil used by the diesels whose track it shares
03:07:36  <Flygon> To reduce dependancy on coal we had to import from New South Wales
03:07:40  <Odin> Also because there's a shortage of strong-backed young men willing to shovel coal
03:07:48  <Flygon> It was just plain easier for us to make Oil, and later, Diesel, hahaha
03:08:24  <Odin> Usually only stationary steam and small (4-6-0 or smaller) engines are still hand stoked coal
03:08:46  <Odin> I have heard that the engines equipped with self-stokers still require a fireman to manually shovel coal.
03:09:05  <Odin> The auto-stoker doesn't make a very good fire bed, and while it will keep up steam it isn't good enough when cruising
03:09:12  <Odin> The corners of the firebox have to be filled in by hand
03:11:00  <Odin> Kind of funny though to see the PRR T1 in NARS 2.5 though
03:11:05  <Flygon> The only reason the H220 had an auto-stoker here
03:11:15  <Flygon> Is because, quite simply
03:11:15  <Odin> OpenTTD doesn't implement wheelslip other than as a change in sound effect on a hard start
03:11:27  <Flygon> VR determined that based on experience with the Spirit of Progress
03:11:42  <Flygon> It'd be physically impossible to shovel enough coal into H220's firebox to keep it running correctly
03:11:49  <Flygon> I'm not joking.
03:12:19  <Odin> How big of an engine is this?
03:12:32  <Flygon> http://www.victorianrailways.net/motive%20power/harry/h220late.jpg Meet Australia's largest non-articulated locomotive
03:12:40  <Flygon> And most powerful from the late 1930s until 1995
03:12:59  <Odin> Interesting
03:13:05  <Flygon> It was designed with the intent of hauling passenger trains
03:13:12  <Odin> It looks like a 4-8-4 though, what makes it different
03:13:24  <Flygon> Because by that point VR stopped giving a fuck and wanted their passenger trains as rock metal insane as possible
03:13:40  <Odin> Or they wanted to copy a successful design
03:13:42  <Flygon> Unfortunately, it never did get to be a good passenger loco, due to WWII
03:13:51  <Odin> That is strikingly similar to the American 4-8-4 Northern
03:14:11  <Flygon> H220/Heavy Harry was based on the S-class design. I wouldn't be surprised if it took a lot of notes from the American designs of the time tho
03:14:13  <Odin> They're quite the beast
03:14:40  <Flygon> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/86/The_Spirit_of_Progress_press_launch_with_locomotive_S302_Edward_Henty_at_Spencer_Street_Station,_November_17,_1937.jpg It's a direct evolution of this
03:15:01  <Flygon> Also a 4-8-4
03:15:08  <Flygon> Uh
03:15:10  <Flygon> Wait, no
03:15:12  <Flygon> That one's a 4-6-2
03:15:18  <Odin> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Pacific_844#/media/File:Union_Pacific_844,_Painted_Rocks,_NV,_2009_%28crop%29.jpg
03:15:30  <Odin> UP 844, one of the better known American 4-8-4 engines
03:15:36  <Flygon> Huh, that IS a striking resemblance
03:15:39  <Flygon> Elephant ears and all
03:15:48  <Flygon> I didn't expect to see Elephant ears on an American loco
03:15:52  <Flygon> When was UP 844 designed?
03:15:58  <Odin> 1930s
03:16:00  <Odin> She's a late model
03:16:04  <Flygon> Hmm
03:16:15  <Flygon> Either there's some convergent evolution going on here
03:16:15  <Odin> Also the only one in the world to have continued working for her original owner without ever being retired
03:16:23  <Eddi|zuHause> <Odin> Simplifies the logistics- the engine burns the same oil used by the diesels whose track it shares <-- that sounds like a myth to me...
03:16:25  <Flygon> Or VR could somehow afford a phone call to the USA <_>
03:16:26  <Odin> Its probably the manufacturers copying each other just like they do today
03:17:06  <Odin> Eddi, it would be interesting if it wasn't
03:17:12  <Eddi|zuHause> typically, oil-fired steam engines used "bunker oil C", which was the stuff that remained at the bottom after refining out other kinds of fuel like diesel
03:17:16  <Odin> ah
03:17:23  <Odin> Interesting indeed.
03:17:39  <Eddi|zuHause> until they figured out how to further refine that
03:17:40  <Odin> I would have expected them to run on the same diesel used by the EMD locos in common service, that way they can simply top it off as needed
03:17:52  <Flygon> Oh, that's odd. The S-class wasn't a streamliner for the first 9 years of it's life...
03:17:54  <Odin> Though a loco designed for oil firing probably would specify a grade
03:17:55  <Eddi|zuHause> that, and the oil crisis, made a sudden end to oil powered steam
03:18:09  <Flygon> Ahh, okay
03:18:09  <Odin> Like I had said though, most of your excursion beasts are oil powered
03:18:18  <Odin> In the US at least
03:18:20  <Flygon> Odin: Seems like H220 might've been inspired heavily by the UP 844
03:18:24  <Flygon> H220 got churned out in 1941
03:18:28  <Odin> Yeah, it looks like they shared notes at least
03:18:36  <Odin> It is one of the more successful designs
03:18:43  <Flygon> Which definitely sets the right period for "Copying America"
03:18:50  <Eddi|zuHause> Flygon: over here, that's usually the other way around. streamliners were built in the late 30s, and after WWII, the streamlining was permanently removed because of maintenance costs
03:19:05  <Flygon> We also tended to copy the USA with regards to Tram designs
03:19:13  <Flygon> Melbourne wanted to use PCC cars, but
03:19:28  <Flygon> We couldn't afford the rights to due to currency conversion problems. Also WWII happened
03:19:54  <Flygon> So we ended up trying to create W-class Trams that imitated some of the PCC's features. eg. extra notches
03:20:08  <Flygon> Granted, 16 different notches is a bit of a far cry from the PCC's 250+ :U
03:20:30  <Odin> lol
03:20:45  <Flygon> We did, eventually
03:20:51  <Flygon> Create a W-class/PCC hybrid in the 1950s
03:20:53  <Odin> Still can't believe I saw a Loram rail grinder on the Norfolk Southern track near my apartment
03:21:06  <Odin> Also I've seen two of the big boys- 4006 and 4012.
03:21:15  <Flygon> http://tdu.to/a35586/5a%20PCC%20980%20East%20Brunswick%20March%201965%20R%20Youl%20(Red.).jpg
03:21:25  <Flygon> Unofficially
03:21:31  <Flygon> It's the fastest recorded Tram in Australia
03:21:44  <Flygon> Hitting 115km/h in a test run
03:21:51  <Eddi|zuHause> trams are not usually built for speed :p
03:22:10  <Flygon> This also meant it has been recorded going faster than suburban EMUs of the day were allowed to go :B
03:22:17  <Flygon> iirc, tho, the regular speed limit was 80km/h
03:22:41  <Flygon> Eddi: No reason not to have a speedy Tram, tho!
03:22:42  <Eddi|zuHause> Flygon: test runs are usually made with 110% top speed
03:22:57  <Flygon> 35 is weeelll over 10% of 80km/h :P
03:23:15  <Flygon> I don't know what prevented them going faster
03:23:23  <Odin> Anyone here by chance have pictures of Blue Peter in '92?
03:23:25  <Flygon> Probably the fact that they ran out of track before hitting suburban streets again
03:23:53  <Odin> A wheel slip blew the heads off the engine, supposidly the wheels achieved over 140 MPH
03:24:01  <Flygon> On the T1?
03:24:12  <Odin> No. Blue Peter is one of the British locomotives
03:24:15  <Flygon> Ooh
03:24:27  <Flygon> Sorry, like I said, not very familiar with non-Victorian rail history x3
03:24:35  <Odin> It had a wheel slip coming into a hill, but the boiler primed and hydrolocked the regulator
03:24:46  <Odin> Cue total runaway with a wide open regulator
03:25:00  <Flygon> (fastest our steam locos officially hit was 160km/h. New South Wales, with the 38xx class series for Sydney-Newcastle runs)
03:25:08  <Odin> The driver tried to throw the reverse to kill it, the pounding of the engine made the reverse spin back and break his arm

03:25:29  <Flygon> (unofficially... I reckon Vic and NSW had locos that could go faster, but... there's no real records of this)
03:25:37  <Odin> I haven't put much attention into trams lol
03:25:54  <Eddi|zuHause> it's like people talking about wine tasting
03:25:57  <Eddi|zuHause> or WOW
03:25:59  <Eddi|zuHause> or ...
03:25:59  <Odin> lol
03:26:28  <Eddi|zuHause> they just spew out words, assuming the other person knows what those words mean
03:26:54  <Flygon> (the S-class in Victoria was only suppose to hit 115km/h, but had large enough wheels to quite easily facilitate operation for over 160km/h. The fastest the locos have been recorded going is 148km/h when their paper recorders ran out during a 'Spirit of Progress' run... so naturally they decided to make the train go as fast as possible for shits and gggles)
03:27:34  <Flygon> (this's ONLY known because the drivers themselves recorded it. And they still had to do half the trip well below the intended speed so that the signal boxes wouldn't record them speeding/so they wouldn't be conspicuously early)
03:27:46  <Flygon> (148km/h is an iirc figure... it was somewhere in the 14xkm/h range)
03:28:40  <Odin> A4 Mallard was recorded at 160km/h and holds the record for steam locomotives
03:28:56  <Eddi|zuHause> interesting what passes as "fast" for some people
03:29:05  <Flygon> This is probably part of the reason the H220 has smaller driving wheels, and more of them... to prevent drivers speeding, but also help acceleration anyway :U
03:29:18  <Eddi|zuHause> 160 is the top speed over here for conventinal signalling
03:29:33  <Flygon> Not that I don't think entrepeneurial drivers wouldn't have tried for 130km/h+ anyway
03:29:52  <Flygon> Eddi: In current day Victoria, 160km/h is the absolute max, with the VLocity DMUs
03:29:53  <Eddi|zuHause> Odin: the german BR 61 was scheduled with a 160km/h top speed
03:29:53  <Odin> Only if they thought they could get away with it.
03:29:58  <Flygon> And by absolute max, I mean
03:30:08  <Flygon> They still tend to run around 177km/h when behind the timetable
03:30:23  <Flygon> And have, again, unofficially, done 220km/h during test runs on new RFR track :U
03:30:40  <Flygon> Apperantly the main reason for the 160km/h cap is signal sighting issues
03:30:58  <Odin> Oh. Mallard's record is 202.5 km/h officially
03:31:13  <Odin> and 160km/h is just the speed it was capable of.
03:31:25  <Odin> Gotta look these things up every so often or I get the numbers mixed up
03:32:20  <Eddi|zuHause> Odin: that sounds more likely
03:32:33  <Odin> That's off wikipedia
03:32:33  <Flygon> (also, apperantly vibration levels around 200km/h were a tad unpleasent)
03:32:40  <Odin> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LNER_Class_A4_4468_Mallard#Record
03:32:44  <Eddi|zuHause> Odin: iirc, the record was previously held by the german BR 05, for a few weeks or months
03:33:00  <Eddi|zuHause> which went around 201 in a test run
03:33:07  <Odin> Yeah, DRG Class 05  200.4km/h
03:33:20  <Odin> Mallard's run was 2 years after that
03:33:49  <Flygon> (this's exemplified by the fact that, reportedly, during one of the 220km/hish tests, the front apron of the VLo managed to fall off)"
03:33:50  <Eddi|zuHause> ah right
03:34:04  <Flygon> (from the vibrations)
03:34:23  <Eddi|zuHause> probably WWII made a stop to such record runs
03:34:39  <Flygon> I'll play devils advocate here
03:34:46  <Flygon> Mallard hit it's top speed going downhill
03:34:57  <Flygon> DRG 05 hit it's top speed on even land
03:35:36  <Eddi|zuHause> well, of course the british will be cheating in such things :p
03:35:38  <Odin> Yeah, but if you really want to be fair take them both out to the Utah salt flats on a straight perfectly level track that goes for miles
03:35:51  <Odin> Might even find a few american engines that want to go for the goal too
03:35:58  <Flygon> Odin: No need
03:36:01  <Odin> and plenty of rednecks with rocket cars trying to do it without rails
03:36:02  <Flygon> Just use existing HST track
03:36:44  <Flygon> And if we're utterly desperate to try and do a speedrun with 1600mm track.. er... well, I guess Victoria has some straight bits too :U
04:03:11  <kamnet> I did a bunch of research into trams last year for the yet-to-be-finished 2CC Trams set. beautiful set of ustralian trams
04:03:22  <kamnet> Australian trams, even
04:04:16  <kamnet> its nice to see trams making a comeback as urban and suburban light rail.
04:17:22  <Flygon> kamnet: Even with Australia, tho
04:17:37  <Flygon> There's still a huge dead-spot internationally from 1955 to 1970 /=
04:17:49  <Flygon> 1970 iirc being when the PCC Z-Class Tram experiment happenex
04:17:54  <Flygon> happaned*
04:18:07  <Flygon> Or: The PCC Car shaped Melbourne's current network :D
04:18:19  <Flygon> Tho, the actual PCC equipment stopped being used when the 2nd Z-Class Tram was made
04:20:31  <Flygon> Anyway, guys
04:20:34  <Flygon> I gotta go :3
04:20:37  <Flygon> Movies
04:20:49  <Flygon> kamnet: It'd be neat to see PCC 980 implemented and going 115km/h :P
04:21:01  <Flygon> But I can see why you wouldn't want a 1939 era Tram going that speed :B
04:21:23  <kamnet> Movies? Whatcha seeing?

10:55:47  <kamnet> Hmmm... is there a way in vanilla openttd w/ default vehicles to completely disable property maintenance?
10:56:21  <frosch123> you can use a basecost newgrf to reduce running cost to 1/1024

10:57:33  <frosch123> no, the running cost setting only has "low", which is only 1/2

10:58:26  <frosch123> where? :p
