In real life there isn't much freight, and it usually runs at night. The freight trains that run on the line are divided up between the...
I can't say for certain as I'm no engineer, but I'm guessing in real life it is treated like a normal dead section, and the Main Circuit Breaker...

Quality over quantity is an important thing to learn…
It’s very rare that I’ve had a problem with an Atlas model, they build them like tanks. My first model train is an Atlas, and it still fires up no...
New HO scale GP40 from Atlas is looking good. They’ve really upped the detail level for this release! Worth checking out for fans of North...
New Haven to Providence sees the least amount of traffic compared to the rest of the NEC, from a timetable perspective it wouldn't make for the...
True, I'm just hoping they do the line justice and it's not another New York to Trenton situation.
Hello all, I often see this line suggested and there's been much speculation that it maybe an upcoming release, so I wanted to make this thread as...
US railroads will keep a few cabooses on the roster in case of special circumstances. These cabooses are often called shoving platforms by modern...

This suggestion gets my vote, it’d be nice to have more US routes in the game that feature both freight and passenger.
The CSX River Subdivision is a 131 mile (210 km) long freight route operated by CSX from the yard in North Bergen NJ to the yard in Selkirk NY....
That’s the one unfortunate thing, there isn’t a good stopping point if the full route isn’t possible. Fredericksburg is the mid point of the route...
Most just run between Boston and Washington but a handful continue to either Newport News or Norfolk via Richmond
There aren't many routes in the United States that see a 50/50 mix of freight and passenger, but the RF&P sub or Richmond, Fredericksburg and...

The official reasoning for not doing it is apparently car substitution causes all the cars in the train to become empty. It’s a shame they never...
