    It was refreshing to hear insights on how DTG , Strategy goes into selecting and creating routes . As a SoCal Native I was beyond thrilled that Amtrak is generally a friendly partner to dovetail and their may or may not be more surprises in the future with Amtrak .DTG , Pleaase do more content like this , I want to see more behind the scenes as much as you are comfortable with sharing ..I was only able to watch parts and of the weekend stream ,looking forward to re-watching as I’m more interesting in the Future of US Content .

    I presume it was the charity stream. Didn't watch it myself.

    Matt seems to be quite open usually, as far as he can be, of course :)

    Well, if Amtrak is such a " friendly partner " why haven't we seen any new locos in the past couple of years? Don't tell me there are no routes to run on. A new Amtrak loco with a gameplay pack covering SPG, HSC, Sherman Hill etc. would be nice.

    Talking is OK but the proof is in the pudding isn't it? The F59phr was a good start, now let's see some more US content.

    I 100% agree ,

    I’m hoping they do something with the recording they got of the recording they got of the Charger and the P42..

    I’m also hoping they can add some Pullman coaches and In the future I want them to add Train Car wraps like the ones Metrolink & Amtrak have..But Yes we do need another Amtrak Route or Amtrak Route..

    Glad you enjoyed the stream! :) Generally, as a team we love to try and answer candid questions as often as we can, via streams or chats in these spaces, but there are limits to what our team can answer without needing further approvals/checks/understanding.

    Matt is truly a fantastic person as he leads the development of our train titles at Dovetail, and is super keen on remaining a huge part of engaging with the community regularly through streams and events. I'm forever grateful to him, and whilst I don't want to add constant pressure on him to appear weekly on streams, I do love his company when we do go live, as he brings so much to the conversations.

    I thank the whole DTG Team ,as US Player and SoCal Native , I understand the complexity of trying to get all Players on board and wait patiently when US Content is announced and eventually. Very Grateful to be a Operate Via the Sim The Metrolink train which I normally commute on…
