Hi guys, a friend of mine, USRailFan007 and myself, found that these whistle boards and speed signs in real life, weren't located in the game. Took the time to go through the entire route and while referencing videos irl, we pin pointed roughly, there location, in game. We split the work with him covering the region from Jamaica to Hempstead and I covered the Mainline from Hicksville to Jamaica. Also found some outliers outside Jamaica, heading towards Atlantic Ave terminal, as well as the Harold overpass tunnels, heading towards Penn station.

Great post, but it would be more useful to them if they had exact latitude/longitude coordinates of the whistle signs. Is that an easy thing to get?
It wouldn't be easy. Had no choice other than to go off YouTube, entirely. Can't utilize Google Earth because it doesn’t display Railroad data and prevents going directly on the tracks, via the program, for safety purposes. The captioning was really the best we could do. I think it really gives them a good sense of where these signs are posted up since, we left the HUD on and moved the trains, as close as possible, to each position. It won't be pinpoint, but it's pretty darn close, given the circumstatnces, currently.
