It is not a bug. You crossed the ACSES penalty curve. Because it is a large drop in speed limit, the curve is really long and starts early. The...

Its activating in certain circumstances where it shouldn't. Bottom line is whenever you encounter an ATC drop, immediately move the master...

There’s two reasons for this. One is because all inbound trains at 125th do not have a specific arrival time. Second, real PIS boards in 2015 did...

this route has many speed changes, true. Eventually if you practice the route enough, you pick up on the speed change locations and it does become...

It’s a core bug, yes. But the m8 specifically has an extra safety feature (which when working in normal conditions, is accurate to the real...

Here’s the temporary solution if you face this again: once you come to a complete stop, force yourself to go 3mph over the ATC limit, then move...

Is the overspeed indicator on the right screen red when this occurred, even as you were below the upcoming speed limit?

ATC is the signals so what is most likely happening is you are following a train in front of you. As you get closer to it, your ATC speeds...

I hear you, it annoys me too. We have reported the issue.

ATC drops require acknowledgement after you achieve the brake rate (aka suppression). It’s good practice to not touch the master controller until...

It means stop, meaning you are approaching a stop signal that cannot be passed.

Also, ACSES (track speed) currently enforces an unrecoverable penalty if you cross the ACSES penalty curve. It should be recoverable if you...

This is known. It’s an ATC feature that applies a penalty if you return the master controller to coast if you hadn’t first achieved the brake rate...

Sorry to hear you had trouble with this scenario. It is indeed a tough first one to encounter out of the gate. The reason why you were forced to...

This is a bug that we have reported. Ideally, it should only be unrecoverable if you dont acknowledge the alarm first. Otherwise it should be...

Yes, the AI takes over at botanical garden and any service that requires a stop at those stations will stop there. The reason for player services...

Yes, the route includes the SD40-2 with the trash cars. Several other freight cars have been moved to core, so no additional DLC required for the...

The snow brake works as long as you arent applying power when you turn the knob. Coasting or braking, it applies around 7psi and keeps it that way...

The catenary towers are present between woodlawn and Pelham but they dont carry wires anymore. The wire begins near the changeover point at Pelham.

M8's are slightly more sluggish than the M7a and M3a mainly because they are heavier. My advice in rain/snow is to drive carefully and anticipate...

He was yes, from beginning to end.

I don’t think this is a bug. cactusjuice can explain it better than I can, but several of these signals are older and only have amber lights. This...

So I can't show any photos at the moment, but I did get up close to the bridge asset. Up close and as you are driving, it is pretty detailed...

Check out the stream tomorrow but in general, the safety systems on the M8 work in a very similar way to the M7a and M3a from the Harlem DLC. On...

Yes! I know the week has been hectic, but please tune in tomorrow for the stream and see for yourself :)

Tune into tomorrows stream. We will be running an amtrak service along this stretch and you might be happily surprised :) . To be clear, preview...

You're correct, same for the ALP46. Normally they wouldnt need to lower pantographs. For the ALP46, when swapping which pantograph is in use, at...

There are two reasons. One is that the train shed at Hoboken Terminal is made of copper and very close to the electrified wires. There is a...

I believe MBTA uses the NORAC Signal Rules: https://signals.jovet.net/rules/NORAC%20Signal%20Rules.pdf

It is an official art installation by MTA Metro North I believe from the early 90s, awesome detail by DTG! More info here:...

Yes, did a few runs. Pantos are up on everything I saw.

It’s worth noting that almost all Amtrak traffic was already in the timetable so it’s 250 additional NJ transit services which seems about right...

DTG did the best they could with the M3A sounds because in real life, the M3As are almost silent. They most likely used the 1972 stock propulsion...

I live on the Harlem Line and take it semi regularly! The timetable Joe did is incredible and really captures the unique operations on the line....

Interesting, will try more later. I know the 2mph rule existed before, but the 70% is new.

I tried a few short services late last night and no issues. Suppression on the M7a and M3a I believe is still 50% minimum brake application.

The distant signal in UK semaphore signalling is only ever clear when all stop signals controlled by a signal box are also clear in the same...

Just want to point out since DTG wont, its not really a 5 hour gap in NJT services midday. Its just that during the midday hours, the cab car...

If I recall there’s also a timer before penalty without using suppression. If you are close to the new speed limit, you can adjust within that...

For the ATC (signal speed reductions, not track speed reductions), you don’t even need to acknowledge. Once the brake is applied more than 50% and...

That particular block section is really long for some reason, most likely a train on the express track had priority as you guessed.

It means a service that has no passengers. It’s to move stock around the system to prepare for a revenue (passenger) service later in the day.

Suppression on both the M7a and M3a appears to be 50% minimum brake application.

I will also say in real life, the ramps are generally wide enough to not cause a giant fire hazard. Yes, people bunch up and crowd the ramp...

Echoing previous replies, yes this is how the platforms are pretty much in real life! In reality on that track there is a single staircase/ramp up...

The power changeover tutorial works well for this requirement, you won’t be needing to go faster than 25mph anyway.

Same on Xbox.

Try the power changeover tutorial if you haven’t. After I did that one, it completed for me.

I’ve noticed the audio quality of the AWS warning and chime in the 375 on Southeastern is poorer than before, yes. Similar issues on the 465. Also...

Make sure you have the brake applied at least 50% when stopped, I know the M3 on LIRR had this interlock so it might be the same thing here.
