    While the Added SB Line is represented Visually pretty accurate, there still a few things I think can be added or looked at for future routes and fixes to this route.

    More Audible Rail crossings ,While DTG did a great job a mixing in the 2 different sounds from Rail road crossings , I would to see well hear rather more audio from rail crossings especially crossings that are by or at a Station

    Sidings ? While I appreciate the opportunity to have more sidings especially since this DLC came with no Freight trains or services unless you have previous DLC . I would to use more sidings especially if they appear on the map . If a siding or track cannot be used , than remove it on from the LIVE map or add the feature if possible ofcourse (This cannot be reached or whatever wording DTG uses for unreachable routes.


    There's some to be issue where if you're leaving the Metrolink Yard In Los Angeles you can't just leave the yard and go start a service and use the track on the opposite side of the wash to head to San Bernardino even though the track are there in game and on the map , you can go as far as selecting the route but once you make it across the wash by the soccer field (End game due to exceeding represented area) . What's the point in putting tracks on the map if you can't use them ‍♂️‍♂️


    One last thing , Why was this line cut short ,This line technically goes to Redlands as Metrolink does have an express service that passes through SB downtown and goes to Redlands. They also have a new arrow line that also Goes from SB -Dtwon to Redlands since the only new locomotive we got was the MP-36 and no added freight (unless you own DLC) . Could we see the Arrow Line come someday ?




    For now I will leave it there in hopes DTG can address or implement these in game since as A US player I know we want more US Content but are restricted due to ......

    They can't just cut away sidings that are literally right next to the main track and all the scenery associated with it. That creates a fictional route

    The reason why they couldn't all the branches and track is because route building and train building is really hard and time consuming. Dtg don't have that time and budget. If they did create those, they would have to rush the whole project even more or cut the mainline short

    Oh, how original! Didn't you post this same answer a couple of days ago? Time to ask DTG control for a new line? :D

    If I'd had that attitude in my working life, I'd be living out my retirement in the poor house.

    if dtg had millions of dollars in budget and an unlimited time to create dlc, then maybe. However, the reality is that they have a set budget and a set deadline and they have to meet those limitations when creating dlc

    I don’t know the route but the stations have been really created well imo. Need someone who knows the route to comment if it is lrl.
