    Some great recommendations from folks on this board for new routes! The following is my proposed options... Many of which have been stated previously by many of you.

    * TGV (Paris)
    * Shinkansen (Tokyo)
    * Acela (Washington DC)
    * LIRR (Babylon to Montauk)
    * Pacific Surliner (San Diego to Los Angeles)
    * Metra BNSF line (Chicago to Aurora)
    * Brightline (Orlando to Miami)
    * Disneyland or Disneyworld railroad (both use steam engines)
    * Via
    * Go
    * Amtrak Cascades or Sounder (Seattle to Tacoma)
    * MetroNorth (terminating in Grand Central)

    I really go for the US commuter rail lines and Amtrak, bc NEC is the only Amtrak route we have, we really need more Amtrak trains. If DTG makes another Amtrak route I would gladly suggest them to add the first diesel loco hauled passenger train:)

    Do you all mind considering adding the PATCO Speed-Line? I’ve been waiting since this game came to my attention!

    If we get steam, I'd love the Cass Scenic Railroad, Durango and Silverton, and Cumbres and Toltec. We definitely need BNSF. Also NS, CP, and more UP.

    Lirr Babylon and Montauk Branch I would definitely like to see on TSW 2 or maybe they’ll do the MBta commuter rail line from Worcester/Framingham with the Hsp46 locomotive and the bilevel coach’s.

    Shinkansen (Tokyo), though a grate idea, wouldn't be fun simply due to the fact that there is no diversity of operation making it boring.
    And the American routes are neglected, so it is just the right amount. Almost all of them are unique (ish).

    I also would love to see the Western Pacific Feather River Route with freight services pulled by U30Bs and either GP20s, GP35s, or GP40s/40-2s and the California Zephyr pulled by WP FP7A/F7B units.
