Across its full length, the route is loaded with more than 20 line-side industries, including massive quarries and cement plants which generate heavy tonnage. And the route passes through a famous and historic part of America, including Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, site of the largest and most important battle of the American Civil War, where the rail line passes directly through a portion of the preserved National Battlefield. the locos: The EMD SD40-2 is a 3,000-horsepower C-C road switcher diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD from 1972 to 1989. The SD40-2 was introduced in January 1972 as part of EMD's Dash 2 series, competing against the GE U30C and the ALCO Century 630 The GE C40-8W is a 6-axle road switcher diesel-electric locomotive built by GE Transportation Systems from 1989 to 1994. Often referred to as a Dash 8-40CW, it is part of the GE Dash 8 Series of freight locomotives. (I was unable to find the map for this route) what’s included? 62 route-miles through rolling farmland and across the Blue Ridge Mountains A variety of lineside industries, yards, and interchanges CSX SD40-2 CSX C40-8W Passing through Gettysburg and the Gettysburg National Battlefield A variety of freight cars, including two- and three-bay covered hoppers, stone hoppers, boxcars, center-beam flats, gondolas, tank cars, and other equipment Some pictures of the train simulator version I think this route would be amazing for TSW2 this route may have recycled locos but the scenery and detail this route has makes up for it
I also forgot to mention that with this route you would switch between the SD40-2 And the SD40-3 in the timetable
And at Highfield, you interchange with the Maryland Midland. The other I'd look forward to with this would be the Chessie System DLC which would work as well for SPG.
The locomotives on this route will fit a base game route which is Sand Patch Grade. SPG will give CSX Hannover Subdivision 1800s name Baltimore and Ohio AC4400CW.
You mean the pre 1986 merger with Seaboard coastlines owner of Clinchfield RR which formed CSX. If this were to be successful, West Germany routes RRO HMA HRR Main Spessart Bahn Ruhr Sieg Nord and SKA will get a 1970s-1980s treatment like this route has with B&O
Might i give a Few suggestions for Unique locos for this Route? SD70ACE-T4: Tier 4 Emission standard Compliant SD70ACEs will make a More interesting addition then the C40-8W. SD40E3: Rebuilt SD40-2s with a new prime Mover, Cab, and Finned Radiators will make a Solid substitute for the SD40-2
