    I agree and we would get the DE30AC since the branch isn't electrified from Mineola to Oyster Bay.

    Don't get your hopes up. I heavily doubt DTG will extend LIRR in the foreseeable future.

    Babylon would definitely be easy it’s all electrified and it’s on the Montauk Branch.

    I agree and now you have Flyer Trains some of them only go up to Wantagh Seaford Massapequa Park. the Rolling Stock needs to be M3 M7 & M9 for Babylon Branch. For Montauk Branch service you can actually join it to the Original Hicksville to Pennsylvania Station tsw 18 level by modeling the Central Branch Bethpage Babylon segment using DE30 or DM30AC.

    I love this idea they can expand it to Oyster Bay and expand Hicksville to Port Jefferson and they can add the DE30 and the DM30AC and then all of that can be in like some kind of expansion pack for like $20.00

    Route expansions are moderate meaning that it's split 50/50. Route expansions would be cool but I don't see that happening even though there is a market there for expansions to routes

    Could also add freight services via the NY&A.

    DE30,NY&A & DM30AC would be great as add on to a future lirr route for tsw 2.My speculation for next American passenger would be possibly Acela or DE30 for a new lirr route for tsw 2.Every country received there highspeed,so safe to assume maybe Acela,,but I'm excited for either of them.If you guys have not tried yet,i made video on how2 drive freight on Lirr

    Cheers

    that is true they got German high speed, TGV with France and southeastern highspeed. Especially since Matt said that one of the main focuses is high speed trains in general bro Acela Express would be a great route for TSW2 and it would sell quickly.

    Absolutely correct and if they set it in 2021-2022 you're going to get Avelia Liberty trains. Also the Avelia Liberty can be reskinned into it's SNCF version the Avelia Horizon. The Avelia Horizon lacks Avelia Liberty Tilit mechanism. If they want another High Speed Train add SBB CFF FFS ETR 610 Basel to Milan via Lotschberg Base Tunnel or Zurich to Milan via Gothard Base Tunnel.
