Not yet decided. The original plan was to start from Boston. We won't know for sure what we'll do until we get a better idea of the capabilities...
No problem at all. Please be sure to ask questions if you have them!
There is no official guide on how signals work in NEC: New York for mainline operations, so I decided to whip one up. One of the major hurdles in...
Congratulations on your first post! I'm glad I talked you into posting about it!
And beyond.... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The boundary. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
By jumping off a bridge at CP 216 from the cab of the ACS-64, you can get out of the map and run east. Eventually you'll get to a point where you...
Well not every train in real life gets hit with the same signals. One train in the early morning may have mostly clear signals but another train...
Well it matters if you have ATC and ACSES on. With those systems on, you'll notice the cab signal changing erratically which forces you to...
Good afternoon, As part of my group's project to develop the Northeast Corridor in future, I used engineering schematics from when the East River...
Yes, but that's only if ACSES is functional. ACSES is NOT a replacement for engineer knowledge of speed limits. This is made very clear in the...
I will admit that this section has quite a few speed limit changes. In order to be qualified on the territory, real engineers must memorize them....
its all the same service duplicated every 5 to 10 minutes
Gotta keep the undercarriage clean. :|
Not a bad idea at all!
The time to penalty will pop up when the alert curve is exceeded. It's to warn the engineer that he has X seconds to brake or he will get a...
That is in the bug notes that I'm writing up. Thanks!
By now I am sure most of you have had a chance to give the new NEC: New York DLC a try. If you have turned on ATC and ACSES, you have definitely...
Invisible wall started right here
There are lots of issues on the simulation side. Most of the issues are with signals, ATC, ACSES, and speed limits. Decoration for the most part...
Glitched out of Penn Station and went south. [ATTACH]
Cheers. This list will be added to in the next few days
If it were to get pushed back again, I think we'd know by now?
I have never been in the cab during operation so I don't know if that is the right beep. I am not too keen on sounds anyway. I dont pick up on...
Yeah I noticed that too. I will put that on the list! Thank you!
There are some Approach Permanent Speed Limit signs and the cab signaling does NOT work properly. It's actually in a very bad state right now. I...
Yeah there were some audio issues. The "spongy" or "grass" sound when walking on the New York Penn platforms, the lack of noise when walking...
Yeah but I personally didn't want to get that nitpicky about the decorations. The most important part to me right now is the simulation.
Like hundreds of others today, I watched the livestream of NEC: New York. It was a good time overall, but I jotted down a considerable amount of...
I heard tomorrow but I do not know exactly when
You can expect an honest and ruthless review of NEC:NY from me. If there are positives, I will say so and I'm certainly not getting paid.
Agreed. But then again, DTG may have purposely omitted LIRR and NJT services to keep FPS in-check. Amtrak + NJT + LIRR + lots of passengers on...
So I read over the manual that was recently released and it appears that the braking curve functionality was implemented. I am very glad that DTG...
He means why the signal aspects and explanations were not included in the manual. He has a good point.
I have it on pretty good authority that you have 8 seconds to respond to an ATC alarm, not 5 like stated in the manual. 8 seconds is the FRA...
ATC will enforce speed restrictions from signals. So if you pass an Approach Limited signal, ATC will enforce 45mph.
I am very impressed that DTG took the time to properly replicate ATC and ACSES. I am especially impressed that the ACSES braking curve...
