    The EMD DE30AC and EMD DM30AC are a class of 46 locomotives built in 1997ā€“1999 by Electro-Motive Division in the Super Steel Plant in Schenectady, New York, for the Long Island Rail Road of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority(MTA) in New York. Originally divided equally between the two types, the fleet currently consists of 23 DE30AC locomotives (diesel power only) and 20 DM30AC locomotives (diesel or third rail power) They run with C3 bi level Trailer cars (the cars that passengers ride in). [Lines they run on]
    Jamaica to Montauk,
    Ronkonkoma to Greenport,
    Jamaica to Oyster Bay
    Penn Station to port Jefferson
    And Speonk - Montauk
    I would like to request that we extend the Port Jefferson branch to Port Jefferson or at least 3 more stops to Huntington

    Hicksville
    Syosset
    Cold Spring Harbor
    Huntington

    I honestly believe this would be a great addition to the American side of TSW as we would love to have another full branch besides the Hempstead branch and because this is an iconic train that has yet to be added to any simulator

    The port Jefferson Branch would definitely be awesome on TSW 2 because the port Jefferson Branch is the scenic Branch on the Long Island railroad.

    I agree with this and hopefully the LIRR M9 which should not be hard to make.

    Excellent idea and remember DM30AC is operated as electric power to Huntington then diesel power afterwards. The Babylon Branch was in the game you get the service pattern of DM30AC Electric mode Penn Station to Babylon Diesel Central Branch and Electric Bethpage to Ronkonkoma
