General North American 3rd Party News (non Dramatic Version)

On a side note, Searchlight Simulations made an update post yesterday.

 

Yes, Milepost and other payware developers should make new assets! It would breathe new life into the game.

 

There's a lot of the country e.g. Wisconsin, Ohio, New England, the Carolinas doesn't look like Mars.
There are too many routes set in the Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, Utah area with long trains dragged up long grades end to end with no intermediate traffic and this will be another of the same ilk.

 

They could be joined together to make a network?

 

Outside of the new york area routes very few ts1 us routes are close enough together to be merged. Pretty much the only one that can be (and has been) merged is marias and the hi line.

 

So, it doesn't seem like Milepost is done with TSC, his site has a preview of his next route, another Narrow Gauge Route.

 

TBT is also making a Ferromex SD70ACU....


For some reason...... (Feel like it doesn't have much uses in game aside from random foreign power lashups)

 

I think KCS and Ferromex had a cooperation, and their locos showed up in KCS trains

 

Anyone heard of any new updates on the Searchlight Simulations SD40's?

 

Milepost's next narrow gauge route in the works:

 

From the TSC discord, mfeets identified the route as Alpine Pass. 1st photo is the engine house that was located up near Alpine Tunnel.
