Yeah, though at least the run numbers are somewhat together, even if the SSW units surround the SP units on the list. (because of the 2 extra the...
IDK why, but it slightly irks me that HIS stated Cotton Belt as CB instead of SSW, which AFAIK most people abbreviated the St Louis Southwestern...
But as we've seen with HIS's ATSF pack, just saying numbers don't mean much. The ATSF pack had a ton of services but all runs were cut into 3 plus...
There are also people that don't go to here to the forums or the discord channel, so for some people, You Tube may be their only source of news.
The thumbnail for the route when it was teased was an SD40-2, so there is a chance its the loco coming for the route, if DTG doesn't just use...
Sadly it seems like the map shows that Fresh Pond was cut for this part of the route, so no exchanging of cars with the New York and Atlantic over...
At least the 50-60s with exception to the Conrail cars, which have to be at least post 1976.

I feel like its a double edge sword at times. On one hand, its nice to know that something is in the works, even if it is a bit out so you know,...
No. That route was made by a 3rd party developer that at this point has moved away from TSC in general and you can't really expect anyone else to...
Appreciate it, it appears some people are more cornered with my grammar than a potential no-no from a dev...
Dug around and found a 1984 SP employee timetable with some grade profiles and notes for the Hayden Branch, though they dont cover Ray to Ray...
Think the problem is most of the stock doesn't really have a use outside of this route in general. -The GP35 is too old to layer into most other...
Im from the US so........
So, reviving this old thread because of this that appeared in the Winter Survey.... Seems like DTG has taken notice of those that have mentioned...
The Anode flat car I also had issues finding exact SP ones as well, the only one I could find is 53ft one that was on the Globe Branch mentioned...
So breaking down rolling stock and such, here is what to expect. So the EMD GP35, Southern Pacific had 160 ordered, with an additional 22 for...
So, not to continue to pile onto the continued High Iron Simulation issues, but this just happened.... This review was left on the ATSF pack on...
How much do you want to bet the GP35 that will come with the route is gonna be the old DTM model that has been used to death on TSC? Anyway Ill...
I just don't like the DTG discord in general as its channels are mostly too vague, its hard to make chit chat in there without other users getting...
One can always also run them on Adriana County, as 2nd hand units passed down to a shortline.
With Brandon leaving, and HIS being HIS, I just don't see US content being very good in the future, and its a shame, cause there were times where...
I just think the dev's are busy working on TSC stuff, Simrail stuff, and their IRL work lives, they do this stuff on the side, and IIRC most of...
HIS has stated they have a freight route in development, but its not officially announced yet, so its not on the roadmap at this time.
Things that Searchlight Simulations port over from Trainz are JR stuff. their Teoli gondola's used in the AC44 steam package were...
Someone forgot that there was freight car subbing that DTG used to have on freight routes, but it was removed from every route except for...
SCS seems to have it working fine with their rework teams on ATS and ETS2, even if that process is a bit slower that what some people want (IE...
Think there isn't anything wrong with that, as long as DTG does them well and doesn't miss things. AVL for example had a few sidings that sat...
Run 8 also has alot more that can go wrong if you don't know what you are doing (IE broken knuckles) Which apparently is a feature that is...
I dont think PTC was mandatory or in use for the UP SD40-2, since its spec'd to late 90's to early 2000's. PTC wasn't really considered till the...
Yeah, there is more than plenty that can help fill out the CRR route, but DTG never bothered with them.... GP7: Can be used in local coal...
TBF, Searchlight Simulations has the advantage that a lot of their team work on actual Class 1 railroad IRL, so they have easier access to manuals...
I mean, the Trainz Xbox entry hasn't drummed up much noise since it released, so Im not sure if Simrail will do any better.
I always felt like Cane Creek would of benefited if more of the mainline was included and had a few of the higher speed freight runs out on it....
Still think Clinchfield can support loco DLC's, but DTG doesn't seem interested in making those for it..... And sadly I think HIS might have DTM...
Was this with or without the safety breaker turned on? I know having that on can cause issues with the loco not applying power.
Yeah, the C4 was the last new freight loco from DTG, not to mention the Bulkhead Flatcar and Maxi IVs were the last freight cars produced by them too.
Amtrak does have a decent presence in places like Chicago, but someone like Metra seems like the main problem around the Chicago area, at least...
It wasn't just that, but it also layered into the original Cajon timetable pulling modern freight cars in its own services, which a lot of us...
I also told you, you can just slap it onto the route with free roam and it would be fine. Just find a gap in the timetable and have at it. Also,...
Not to mention the only freight locomotive included is a SD40-2, so there is no incentive for DTG to touch the GP38-2.
We call those a caboose over here.
It does really show about how much of the US DTG has covered, which isnt much... [ATTACH] Though it also shows the size of the US as a whole too....
NP, but back to your original point, it does make me wonder why people keep asking for the same freight routes we've seen in other sims in the...
We don't have a tier 4 GEVO? Only the Skyhook Games ES44AC, and DTG BNSF ES44C4 (Which is what I assume you meant) Also a Tier 4 ES44 is an ET44.
You said... which isn't true. 4400 isn't 4000. Only thing they are similar is that they are both Widecab GE's for mainline duties. Also the...
Last I checked the ES44 and C40-8W are NOT the same locomotvies, the C40-8W only has 4000HP, the ES44 has 4400HP. The ES44 is also a C4 varient,...
He defiantly monitors it. HIS's facebook page is notorious to having any critical comments being hidden by them, so you rarely see any heavily...
