    I think they should add a Boston Area route like the LIRR with plenty of things to do. Heres a map I've created to show all of the lines I would love for DTG to add. TSW Proposal.png
    For people who love frequently stopping passenger train services, there could be lines from Boston to Worcester (Worcester Line,) Boston to Forge Park 495 (Franklin Line,) and Boston to Wickford Junction (Providence Line) along the NEC. For people who like high speed intercity trains, there would be the Northeast Corridor with the usual Northeast Regionals and Acelas. For people who like freight, theres the CSX Framingham Subdivision with local services between Framingham, Readville, and Mansfield. If there was to be a DLC, I would really love a Bay Colony Railroad DLC. Bay Colony is a tiny shortline from Medfield, MA to Millis with a route of under 5 miles. They only have one engine always assigned to service from Medfield Junction, where it picks up cars from CSX to Millis so it would be a relatively easy route/DLC to do.

    Below is a list of all of the rolling stock that would be needed for each railroad.

    MBTA:
    F40PH-3C (Image 1)
    BTC-4D (Image 2)
    CTC-5 (Image 3)

    CSX:
    Already existing GP40-2 and GP38-2
    Already existing freight cars

    Bay Colony:
    BCLR GP7 #1701 (Image 4)
    Already existing freight cars

    Amtrak:
    Already existing ACS-64
    Already existing Amfleet cars

    This company also seems to be run by Star Trek fans.

    I'd like the MBTA, Amtrak, and Bay Colony engine ideas. If this route is released, I'd like to see the Bay Colony GP7, Amtrak ACS64, MBTA F40PH-3C, and a couple of CSX diesels other than the ones in the NEC and CSX HH routes. I'd rather see CSX ET44AH or ES44AH units for heavy freights and a 3GS21B Genset switcher.

    Sounds like a nice route I suggest a ET44AH as well.

    Could this route be available sometime in train sim world in the future because I know they’ve got freight on some of the route.
