    I feel like we could use an expansion for this route. Possibly add the Montclair Boonton Line or extend the line to Hackettstown.
    If it were to come with locomotives, I feel like adding the GP40PH-2b or PL42AC along with the Comet V would be a nice addition

    Honestly, adding an unelectrified stretch with a new loco and a layer for the ALP45DP would be so worth it.

    Okay, then maybe make a new post about it instead of commenting on a thread about a line at the opposite end of the state?

    To be clear, make that post and I will upvote it, I want that line too. I'm just saying don't derail a thread about another route.

    Since we have the trackage in this route between Jersey city just west of the tunnels and Suffern lower level, I definitely would like to see the Bergen/Main line atleast up to Suffern Yard, north. I am definitely down for an extension of the Morristown line.

    If they were planning to extend the Morristown Line they should add the Gladstone Branch which they shoud've added it when they first released the Morristown line as part of TSW 6.

    That would be a good suggestion for another NJ Transit Route for TSW.

    right, there’s still a code of conduct for these forums though. making your own suggestion thread will benefit everyone
