Surely with all the improvements to the game and pc hardware in the past years, maybe it’s time the unreleased full timetable for New York Trenton including freight services, gets released as a third timetable option. It could even be labeled “experimental” to waive any performance expectations. The work is already done. The files are probably just sitting on someone’s computer at DTG, I highly doubt they’d delete it. Alternatively, DTG could release the a timetable .pak file as an unofficial mod.
What freight timetable is actually originally part of NYT? I ask because in real life, there is barely any freight on NEC through NJ that isn’t Amtrak or NJT maintenance related. Maybe a route or two a month if that. To my knowledge, all freight in the central part of NJ runs through a combo of the CNJ and Lehigh Valley tracks since the Linden yard has pretty much fully closed up. So I’m curious what freight was supposed to be included originally since it doesn’t exist.
Have a read of this roadmap article from June 2023 which talks about the improved timetable we were supposed to get for NYT. https://live.trainsimworld.com/news/train-sim-world-roadmap-june-2023
Unless there's gonna be some sort of remaster or another update to Trenton, chances of seeing freight on this route, even on TSW7 and onwards, might as well be a pipe dream, as I highly doubt this will pretty much happen, even in its current state.
the whole route needs repairing from the ground up. the timetable is fine but the signalling is broken, some of the lighting isn’t the best and it doesn’t have any core features from the last few years, only guard mode i believe
