    As seen on the March 2023 Roadmap

    Welcome to Toronto Commuter 2024. Built by the Great Western Railway (Ontario) between 1853 and 1855 the present day Oakville and Grimsby Subdivisions hosts over 100 passenger and freights trains daily making this the busiest rail corridor in Canada.
    This timetable enhancement pack includes the following. A brand new 24 hour timetable featuring GO Transit regional rail, intercity passenger, local and fast freight services. 6 custom made scenarios featuring passenger and freight services. In addition 21 reskins are provided to transform locomotives and cars from Sand Patch Grade, Boston - Providence, Peninsula Corridor and MP36PH-3C Baby Bullet add-ons into appropriate liveries. Finally tweaks to the existing route includes adding stations to the PIS, adjusting passenger density at stations and as a bonus added new paths to the Scenario Planner.

    With 111 playable services, choose from 88 GO Transit regional rail services operating the MP40PH-3C and Bombardier BiLevel cars along the western shore of Lake Ontario on all day stopping local, limited express, and rush hour commuter services. Or drive 1 of 10 intercity domestic and international services with the F40PH. If freight is your preference, you have a pick of 6 yard transfer services or 5 local shunting jobs using the GP9Rm and the GP38-2. Or drive the AC4400CW on 2 short haul manifest services. Looking for more freight, use the Free Roam feature to create your own adventure exploring the various industrial sidings throughout the route. While you are riding the rails, keep an eye out for additional AI operating local and fast freight services.

    What's included:
    • Timetable:
      • Total: 204 services (111 playable, 93 AI).
      • GO Transit services (88 playable and 32 AI) based on Nov. 2023 timetable featuring,
        • All day stopping services to Aldershot and West Harbour.
        • Limited express services to Niagara Falls.
        • Rush hour commuter services to Hamilton Centre and Oakville (AI only).
      • Intercity passenger services (10 playable and 2 AI) based on Nov. 2023 timetable featuring,
        • VIA Rail services to London and Windsor.
        • Amtrak services to Buffalo and New York Penn.
      • Local freight services (11 playable and 10 AI).
        • Local yard transfers operating out of Aldershot Yard.
        • Switching autoracks at Oakville Automotive Assembly Plant.
        • Shunting in the Hamilton Industrial Zone (The HOLE).
      • Fast freight services featuring 80+ cars (2 playable and 49 AI).
        • Operating mostly between the Halton and Dundas Subdivisions.
      • 4 Scenarios:
        • Hockey Night in Canada (MP40PH-3C).
        • Late Running (BiLevel Cab Car).
        • The Maple Leaf (F40PH).
        • Aldershort Turn I, II & III (GP9Rm).
      • Rail Journey mode.
    • Repaints:
      • 37 repaints created by editing texture files and not using Livery Designer.
        • MP36PH-3C in GO Transit livery (Original Green & White and Metrolinx liveries).
        • BiLevel cars in GO Transit livery (Original Green & White and Metrolinx liveries).
        • 2 - F40PH's and CTC cars in VIA Rail livery.
        • AC4400CW in CN livery (Bonus playable with the original timetable).
        • Added 2nd F40PH in intercity inspired livery (requires Peninsula Corridor).
        • 6 autoracks and 3 covered hoppers.
    • Stations:
      • 12 stations added to the PIS for intercity services.
      • Adjusted passenger density at stations.
      • Adjusted monthly temperatures.
      • Scenario Planner 2.0 compatible:
        • Added 60 new paths including access to all portals for a total of 70 paths.
    Issues:
    • Passengers behaving badly,
      • Mostly at Oakville Station passengers getting off the train will pile up and spill over onto the track.
      • At Oakville station, passengers cue on the island platform between track 1 and 2. In reality there is a fence dividing the island platform and track 1.
      • At Aldershot station, passengers cue on Platform 1 which is disused in real life.
    • Aldershot PIS display boards are backwards. Track 1 shows 4, track 2 show 3, etc.
    • Switch speed limits are Slow Speed (15 mph) but in reality they are either Medium (30 mph) or Limited (45 mph).
    • 30 mph zone entering Oakville Platform 3. In reality Platform 4 is a through line and 30 mph limit applies to this track only.
    • AI does not turn off headlights on reversing services (i.e. some trains to Union will have headlights on rear of train).
    • ATC and ACSES not usable on the route. Do NOT turn on.

  2. This is amazing! Thank you!! I have wondered about the metro stations on the Toronto route and felt it wasn't taken advantage of.

    Can the train really go to Toronto? There seems to be no point in just setting a timetable to get to your destination. I hope DTG will expand Canadian routes, and I also hope that people with practical skills can use the editor to develop long-distance freight routes in the United States; other routes in Canada are also feasible.

    It doesn't go to Toronto. It just goes between what's already in the route with Toronto as the off map destination. This doesn't lengthen the route. The biggest barrier to long distance in TSW, even by modders, is the time and effort it takes and computer performance/file size

    I am happy to announce that Version 1.2 for my Timetable EP is now available on Train Sim Community.

    In this version I have added 4 additional freight services and 6 custom scenarios featuring passenger and freight services. Rail Journey mode has also been updated with these new services and scenarios.

    At that price, if you don't own it, grab it and download the updated timetable. This is how this DLC should have been when originally released. Great work from CFTFC congrats! IMG_2024.10.05-14.54.59.jpg

    Thanks dgagnon720. Glad you are enjoying it.

    For anyone attempting Aldershot Turn Part 2, I'd recommend having the Objective Markers turned on (Ctrl + 1) so you know which cars to couple to and where to uncouple.

    This is for PC only right? Sad, no love for game consoles. :(

    It’s a well known fact that TSW mods are not compatible with consoles; the latter being by definition a fixed platform plug and play experience. Some games such as Farming Simulator and Snowrunner have built-in mod support on consoles, but this is very much the exception. TSW will never have mods on consoles as DTG would not want to have to deal with the inevitable support issues that would arise. I would sincerely recommend therefore coming over to the dark side and embracing the PC culture if you’re interested in going beyond console gaming. :)

    Now pulling into the station.

    Toronto Commuter is back with less stop and more GO.
    (Contains 60% less red signals)
    [Not independently verified]

    This update adds GO Transit liveries (original Green & White and the newer Metrolinx) to the MP40PH-3C and Bombardier BiLevels. Formations will randomly contain both liveries throughout the train as in real life.
    Also more realistic VIA Rail liveries have been added to the F40PH's and CTC cars.

    After a stern talking to the dispatcher, the signaling system has been updated meaning less red signals.
