    Hi
    There is this one train that is excluded in LIRR. They are called the DM30AC and DE30AC. They really needs to be added to the game because once again, it is excluded in the LIRR fleet in TSW. I know that there is a heep of other trains in LIRR but these locomotives is the only other locomotives that run the entire route. With that out the way let's jump right in!!

    DM30AC/DE30AC
    Some of these locomotives run on diesel / electric and some are just electric.
    Manufacturer: EMD
    Build date: 1997-1999
    Length: 75 ft
    Top speed (Diesel): 100 mph
    Top speed (Electric): 80 mph
    Horse Power: 3,200
    Numbered (DE): 400-423
    Numbered (DM): 500–502, 504–506, 508–522

    Conclusion
    Thank you guys so much for listening to my reasons why they should add this locomotive. If I made a mistake, feel free to reply 'Hey MetroMad, you made a mistake on this part.' Other than that, I hope you all agree, and you can also reply 'YES!! I agree!!' Other than that, once again thank you for watching and I'l see you next time.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing the Dm30Ac go from mineola to oyster bay since the tracks go about half way to east Williston where the electricfide end.

    you mean East Williston to Penn Station/Jamaica Long Island City DE30AC. You're simply running electric mode from East Williston to Jamaica/Penn Station double-headed DM30AC C3 Cab Car & DE30AC

    I wouldn’t mind seeing the oyster bay Branch in a winter update for lirr like dovetail could add the DM30AC’s to TSW 2.
