    As a resident of Long Island, and an enormous fan of the LIRR, I would really like to see the EMD DE/DM30AC locomotives, as well as the C3 cab cars implemented, as well as a route extension further east. Now for the M7's, it does kind of bother me that the numbering scheme isn't accurate to the actual thing in train consists, however I do understand that there are technical difficulties with that. However, I would like to see in a future update the numbering made accurate.

    In my opinion, along the Babylon line to the Montauk line. Or add in the Main Line and Central Branch to get us to the Montauk Branch starting from Babylon

    If you're playing DM30AC Montauk Branch Penn Station to Patchogue via Hicksville Bethpage Junction Babylon Central Branch you might need to consider you actually lose electric power after Bethpage Junction. Normal dual-mode trains that use central branch are Ronkonkoma Branch trains that need to operate Central Branch.

    Good question if they do Jamaica to Patchogue they're going to have two options. Option 1 is the Babylon branch St Albans Babylon. Option 2 in actual time table for Montauk Branch Patchogue bound trains from Jamaica usually go Jamaica Mineola Hicksville Bethpage Babylon the Central Branch. In the actual Montauk Branch Timetable Mineola 3:15 pm 3:25pm Hicksville Final Destination Speonk it's the 4:10 pm train from Patchogue
