To Hyce, ES&D CDO Fees and fines cost are at the end of your shift is 98,850.48 dollars. We appreciate it if you pay your copay of 627,149 dollars. Please pay off your fees and fines. Sorry for being late. I was doing my other job when this was uploaded. Derail Valley Debt Collector, John Doe

That engine straight up said "FINE I'LL DO IT MYSELF" and just... did.

This game is a great outlet for the intrusive thoughts. Can you imagine watching a train of hazmat roll by with no one in the cab of the loco followed shortly by a guy on a handcar.

having things to blow up after the employee had already blown some things up is the most irresponsible thing a railroad manager can do, especially when hyce is the employee

Note on door that reads: Busy right now. Currently tanning a hide. Will report debt later. - Johndoe etc etc

Berkshires: *are considered the pinnacle of steam locomotive design, often having a factor of adhesion exceeding 4* Derail Valley S282 Berkshire: *extremely cursed and has a factor of adhesion of 2*

0:27 Man my brain is silly. When you said "steam forum" my mind went to a forum dedicated for steam locomotives. Not the platform the game is hosted on 😂

SFS and derail valley are some of my favorite series. I love the shenanigans that always happen lol

The yard is on fire cause of spilled oil or gas from last time. All it takes is one spark from the stack to ruin your day.

IIRC, you can only purchase a maximum of 3 lanterns. Somehow, through the magic of a glitch, the lost and found has provided you with two more lanterns than should be possible to acquire in the game. Was very impressed this episode's stunt actually paid off. Maybe you need to try it again some time to make sure it wasn't a fluke 🤔

Im currently trying to shunt/unload a 928 ton 16 car long cut of scrap metal at the steel mill at night with nothing but a single DE2, and yet hyce has out stupided me. I love his channel (Edit) I lovethat it all worked out for both of us

Choo Choo says “I got this!! I too was peering down the track into the trees, just waiting for Kenosha to start playing in the background… But sometimes those dumb ideas work perfectly! 👏

I love these videos because it always always being chaos, there’s a reason is called “derail” valley😂

Just when you thought you had the money for a new license, the Berk had to go pull a 346 and burn down a boxcar… time to bust out the Ridgeway!

I miss railroads online! That series was so fun to watch

The fire on the tracks are just there to keep the loco warm!

I was expecting that hazmat train to roll back down towards the handcar! Great episode this week!

What a fun watch, i was expecting disaster 😂 buster keaton is my favorite, love the general references!

going through the tender kickflip switch proceed to stand on the tender

If its stupid but it works, its still stupid you just got lucky-The mighty Jingles

Holy crap, Hyce in a Berkshire?!?! Man we should get him around 1225 & 765 for a month 😂

26:55 hey that's me. Honestly, considering the wild stuff I've seen and heard about on here with trains I was wondering what an "ox tender" would be to get that name. It never occurred to me until he and someone else had commented that it was an "auxiliary tender".

Also, station maps. Seriously helpful

something like it happened with a circus train, they had two trains and the engineer in the last train fell asleep and crashed into the first.

52:45 I've actually found the scroll wheel to be much better of an option. By looking at the handles, you also see the link to the gear, and so can better tell what the timing should be. After that, it's simply a matter of quick scrolls at the right times! 'Course, the only problem with that method is you can't see the track ahead...

I love your work. I want to recommend Terry Pritchett 's book, Raising Steam to e eryone who loves steam locomotives. A couple quotes: a fiery dragon all cinders and smoke. When it's time for steam engines steam engines will come. A manly smell, steam coal grease. Thanks again for your great content.

Expanding on the aux tender part it also allows you to modify the locomotives original tender and expand the coal bunker like was done on C&O 614. She went from originally carrying 50,000lbs of coal to 100,000.

Ah, the great locomotive chase, an exciting themed ride.

when being busy with 'kicking' the explosive's the engine was impatient and thought it could 'help' in its own way..

Hyce - let's send a unmanned train uphill. Engine - okay, but you have to catch me after a long ride on the handcart.

I love that you referenced "Connie" from the movie unstoppable.... which is a Hollywoodized retelling of the CSX Crazy 8s incident. Which happens to be one of my favorite Railroad stories

10:39 Funny thing about that… in the early early days, Amtrak approached EMD about ordering E10s as their first new diesels, but the patterns and jigs for the E-unit underbodies had all been junked already. So instead, they ended up ordering the (soon-to-be) infamous SDP40F… Also, it’s clearly a Yunction sign, not a Junction sign. ;)

What a title! You're a madman Hyce!

There is a 2-8-4 berkshire that runs around the state of michigan still got to see it a few years ago.

Hey Hyce, I figured out how to sort of bail the independent off. In the driving UI (which you wouldn't have in realistic mode) you can click release on the brake cylinder and it gets rid of all the air in the locomotive brake cylinder. Pretty sure that isn't exactly how it works in real life, but you can correct me if I'm wrong. Loving the content, keep up the good work!

Hyce chases his goods engine & other stories

55:28 Hyce and his remake of "Unstoppable" lol

And you thought crew less train were something new. The ES&D has been doing it since the steam ERA.

Oh it would be so fun to see Hyce play this game in VR again.

Stupidest thing you've done? You've done a lot of dumb things you'd never do IRL

If they sit in fire long enough, cars with wood on them will actually catch fire. Not just take damage, but actually catch on fire themselves. The fire keeps burning longer and actually moves with the car if you shove it somewhere.

The Fact on how Im doing the same thing Hyce is doing in this video in my Career playthrough rn XD (Except I haven't ran a train off the rails in my entire playthrough yet)

The boards only mean much on the Passenger Jobs halts (fun fact, I want Sliced Pax Cars back so that I can do a less Amtrakkitative spot with three-car Regionals). For yard ladders, all you gotta do is get clear of the Mystery Loading Gauge envelope (over buffers!! and idk if I should caveat further about the dynamic envelope, because how does car sway work again?), conveniently denoted by the width of most ballast and embedded roadbeds (when you're not playing with the Gauge mod).

I wonder if Dusty ever watches one of these and is happy you are not running a train that day.

Welcome back! Hope you had a great time in Croatia!

Of course riding the kick and giving your whistle cord command of the cab is more efficient... until such time as your pee cups outpace your payouts. A longer teleport or a repeater macro would help this, but you can also pitch the camera up by some 40-45 degrees to exploit the sort of "arc" that the dash vector is drawn in for VR kids (yes, it's the same in 2D mode!). ...or yes, the "pumpy thing" as named by Gary Brannan. Thankfully you worked by the ESDTOR on this video and worked "uphill slow[, downhill scary at the Steel Mill hill]"

27:16 only the pollex auxiliary tender will work properly when the mod is active and you spawn one in

12:20 That's what he said.

When are going to get a the sound bites of "coal" and "hole" added to the game instead of the default shovel sounds? lol

I loved this. The chase was great!😊

Reminder to check your switches. Also, British locomotives ride better, but are less able to deal with bad track work than American ones, because they have no compensation levers or driver sideplay.

I enjoy watching these, but it does stress me out the way that he can run at night without actually seeing what's going on. Maybe it's just the way it uploads? Anyways, it's also the practice of just jumping off the train and running around or behind to flip a switch or something.

46:37 drake reference lol

they spawn in and look prurdy but thats about it. there is a untility mod that has a car spawner that works to summon it.

es&dt

yo before its too late make sure you check those switches at the oil well

It will be fine.

Talking about screen door, just buy a quest 3. It has the best image quality you can get in a VR headset currently and the screen door is almost invisible (and it is diagonal rather than vertical and horizontal which makes it even less noticable for some people, but more noticable for others, because they rotated the screens slightly). And despite having the best image quality it's the cheapest "current gen" VR headset you can get. Note image quality =/= resolution. A few headsets have better resolution but they have worse quality lenses which make the image quality worse in some situations (primarily by introducing chromatic abberation). The quest 3 has the absolute best lenses in a VR headset though so while the fine detail is not quite as good as some other headsets, due to the lower resolution, you never have image distortion from the lenses so for 99% of scenarios (including this game from what it looks like, though I have no first hand experience) the image quality will be fantastic. Don't buy an index though, the index wasn't even the best headset you could get when it came out and is just completely outdated now.

I've never had a steam train catch things on fire in Derail Valley. Is that a new thing added in a secret update I don't know about? I'm not exactly gentle on steam trains anymore, especially beating the crap out of the 282 running near tonnage from the Harbor to Military Base, running out of water at the crest around the switch to Coal or Iron Mine up there.

Hyce, what are you going to do for July 4th? this year because you have a lot of train games to play for the explosions like Fireworks

i'd love to see more of the DM3 or better yet VR DM3 As slow as the DM3 is i just love running it

do it! do it!

If the multiplayer mod turns out to be any good I'd love to see a playthrough with kAN.

Please make a explanation on Baldwin Locomotive Works because I know absolutely nothing about it but they made so many engines

When will it ever get official multiplayer?.... and a zombi-mode?

A (2-8-4) is a Berkshire

"The Stupidest Thing I've Ever Done"...but it didn't end in Kenosha? Are you sure about that? Still might be one of few times Hyce has "seriously" considered the consequences of dumb actions. 😛

this is just steam engine simulator now

At least it has fire

🎵THE BOIS ARE BACK IN TOWN!🎵. Also, have you ever considered playing Rolling Line? Its whole purpose is a video game about model trains, at least, that what’s on the tin.

Can’t wait for Century of Steam…

You have probably answered this elsewhere but what do you think are the positives of this game and the comparative positives of railroader. I am considering getting one of them, but am not sure which to get.

wait, the multiplayer mod for derail valley has been fixed now? last time i checked it was supposedly broken

When this video came out, I seriously thought we got the update.

New Goal: Get so many fines it crashes your game.

15 fpm? Did you borrow my computer? Because that's my framerate when I play this game.

My pc has 0.0003 fps every time I play derail valley

I’d say it’s the modern day general but it seems hyce has stolen both engines

So...someone needs to do Mods for "general", "texas", "yonah" and Wm. R Smith"??

Also why do you like playing this game in 1st person while you prefer playing railroader in 3rd?

If it worked was it stupid???

What happened to the s060

So everything got canceled?

Hyce, I'm sorry, as a Brit, I have to correct you. It's Berkshire. Pronounced Barkshire. We're not trying to insult the locomotive here!

lost and found. more like lst and lost and lost and lost and lost and lost and lost. because you never seem to pick them up.

How is your time in Europe going Hyce?

I am making a trainz series. Can i use your music in it plz.

Day 4 for asking for an Auxiliary Tender 101

HYCE USE THE SCROLL WHEEL BACK AND FORTH ON THE HANDCAR YOULL FIND THE RYTHMN FAST AND GO SPEEEEEEEEDDYYYY

Read this message

ALSO. SCROLL/G DOWN TO PUSH DOWN. SCROLL/T UP TO PULL UP ON THE T-BAR OF THE HANDCAR (your side)

John Doe when he hears about this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jNl6lpWLzci8eZs.html

Hyce you Need to play rails of dg county my user name is countoss0

I just read the something on top of the cab "Get back in the cab before you die" thanks for the safety tip hyce I rather not lose my head while on a high speed freight train 🥲👍 lol
