Ok....
It really isn't a yard though, only a few empty tracks and an Amtrak Station. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Except there isn't a major yard in Green River, hell the next major yard west is Helper Utah, 70+ track miles to the west. And the next major yard...
How about something geared? Like a Shay, Climax or Heisler? -Shay [ATTACH] -Climax [ATTACH] -Heisler [ATTACH]
So another vintage US route that I'll suggest for TSW2 is the Feather River Canyon, however, I'm suggesting the Eastern Side of the route, from...
Yeah that is one thing that concerns me, with single line track for most of the branch line, and no passing sidings, I don't see how there can be...
Here's some things that I would like to see be done in the future. -Any Pre-Amtrak Era Passenger trains -Amtrak California (Capitol Corridor from...
I know the UP mainline here runs a few locals to serve local industries, would be nice to actually have a route with local trains, as it gives...
The licensing thing comes from the TS20XX routes, as all of the current Japanese routes are currently unbranded. However, one thing to note on...
A highly unlikely suggestion for Australia would be the Pilbara area railways, mainly due to route length, landscape, and length of the ore...

With the Steam announcement today, gonna open up Tehachapi's suggested era to Southern Pacific's Steam Era, post 1952 Kern County Earthquake, as...
The 1st photo you posted is what was used in the NEC route, 85ft flat cars. However, the Uranium Tailing trains from what I've seen only used the...
So I accidentally came across what I assume are the cars used on the Uranium Tailing trains. They are specialty built spine cars that come in...
Amtrak does maintain commuter trains on their system as part of state owned corridors, like Amtrak California/Surfliner, Amtrak Midwest, and NCDOT.
Yeah it looks like Amtrak totally yanked DTGs license. #saracasm [ATTACH]
BNSF is the only major Class 1 freight railroad with licensing issues, but CSX,UP and NS are all fair game, including their fallen flag railroads...
Yeah, unfortunately outside the Dash 8 it may be a few months before we get anything new that is based Stateside....
If US steam comes in the future, hopefully they are better than the old RSC models on Train Simulator, those things were awful...
Most likely something UK based, since any new references could be done locally with the current pandemic. I would like to see something US based,...
Another unexciting roadmap for me, maybe the next one or two I'll see something I like.
Palmdale Cutoff is an option, but may leave the BNSF tracks pretty bare.
I dont think there is really a best, all three should perform the same as they are all the same locomotive. The only real difference is the road...
Cajon Pass Alpha is pretty big, it expands upon the default Cajon Pass Route by adding... -The UP Yard in Yermo -The Ex SP Yard in West Colton...
I think the P42DC would be great if it came with another route dedicated to it, but it also adds timetables to routes where possible (Like Sand...
Did you take over the service 1st by sitting in the engineers seat? I had the same issue with the SD40-2, but after I sat in the chair, accepted...
So apparently Japan had streamlined one of their C53 locomotives. C53-43. Honestly something i never knew about. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Something in the era between the Upcoming Clinchfield Route to Modern Times would be nice, like the 70s to the early 90s.
PS, there is a way to multi quote messages so you don't constantly spam a post.
Most likely they did this to avoid using Generic Containers, since CSX does run their own fleet of 53ft Containers. [ATTACH] Only other thing...
We barely got Horseshoe Curve for TS2021, I doubt the line from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia would be remotely viable for TSW2.
The Sierra Nevadas dont run that far south, the biggest obstacle that route would face is Cajon pass, and finding a route to LAUPT. Brightline...
Polyphony Digital has the backing of Sony plus are better financially to handle such issues if they arise. Though not everything is paintable....
I don't think one exist outside of a pack of patched SP units. Mainly because most of the repaints done for those locos were finished before...
It loses only about 8 miles of track, from what I assume is from the Virginia yard near Dante to the N&W interchange in St. Paul Virginia.
Yeah what a waste, would of been better to start it either in the Bay Area or the LA Basin, the central valley doesn't want or need this....
So why not just post a link to the original video instead of a recording of it?
Or Amtrak in general, which can range from their state owned corridors to the Long Distance Trains to the NEC.
I made that post BEFORE this post was moved here.
Because licensing, Metra didn't grant a license for TS20XX and I don't think DTG will make a route for TSW2 without official branding.......
Im still hoping Skyhook adds part of the UP mainline for this route from Thompson Springs to Green River, as well as the Uranium Tailing trains...
Union Workshop has been teasing an E5 for over a year now, with progress being periodically shown on their website....
Except the Avelia Liberty will reach nowhere near those speed unless the NEC gets rebuilt or realigned. Its current projected max speed atm will...
I dont see this happening as the proposed route is way too long. Not to mention 2 routes that are already released are on this route (NEC: New...
OP only mentioned NA routes so my comment was only for NA routes.
So found some modern footage of the pass from the rear of a detouring Amtrak Coast Starlight. Something to note is that it does take almost 2...
IMO, unless there was a way to also reactivate the Western Maryland line on the route (With AI trains as scenery) I wouldn't want to go that far...
