Route Route Suggestion: Pacific Surfliner

The Amtrak® Pacific Surfliner® travels along a 351-mile route through San Diego, Orange, Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties, with portions of the route hugging the Southern California coastline. The COASTER commuter train provides breathtaking coastal scenery as it runs north and south through San Diego County, serving eight stations between Oceanside and downtown San Diego. More than 20 trains run on weekdays, with additional service on the weekends. It takes about an hour to travel the entire COASTER route. Metrolink is a commuter rail system in Southern California consisting of seven lines and 62 stations operating on 534 miles of rail network. The system operates in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties, as well as to Oceanside in San Diego County.

 

Like I keep saying, unless DTG can resolve their licensing issues with Metrolink and Coaster, Pacific Surfliner will never ever see its full potential.

 

Maybe Roadmap In
25th January 2022 - Roadmap
8th February 2022 - Roadmap

 

Indeed, without Metrolink and Coaster services, let's imagine if DTG did a route of a plausible sort of TSW3 length, and did say, San Diego-Fullerton.
It'd be the recent launch all over again, but even less satisfactory, like if NYT wasn't just missing AI LIRR and playable freight services, but also didn't have NJT services either.

 

Locos I want included in base route:
-BNSF C44-9W or ET44C4 for heavy freights
-BNSF GP60/GP60M-3 for local/switching services
-Surfliner SC44 Charger

Possible DLC locos:
-Coaster SC44 Charger
-Metrolink EMD F125
-Amtrak P42DC
-Surfliner F59PHI
-BNSF SD70ACe
-BNSF GP38-2
-BNSF B40-8W
-Amtrak P32-8BWH

 

Licensing issue is the problem here for Metrolink because they don't have a license for it which means you would only have two railroads BNSF & Amtrak.

 

is true but, i'm sure that will do an Surfliner Route With Amtrak Surfliner Only

 

The segment can be Ventura to Santa Barbara which features the Pacific Ocean

 

Would be just like Cane Creek, wonderful scenery, poor replayability due to lack of services.

 

They already resolve the Metrolink And Coaster License

yeah, like, it would be so nice if they figured out a way how to implement PTC into the game... I love Antelope Valley Line and San Bernardino Line, but a downside which always bugs me is that there isnt really a safety systems to enforce anything, apart from Alerter... thats why I play Boston Worcester so much lately - it's got that US commuter diesel stuff going on, but with ATC and ACSES implemented

 

Won't what? Check if a post is from 2022 before replying to/necroing it?
