Why is there an SD40 on the stacktrain.....
They aren't there yet, layers won't get activated until release day.
What???
Any word on why the choice was made to exclude LATC (the large UP yard right across the river from LAUPT)? Seems like that would've added quite a...
Does anyone know if they have ever attempted to get the Sounder license?
Yup I think this would be a perfect combination passenger/freight route. Lots of UP Intermodal trains that originate and terminate in the Oakland...
Oakland Jack London Square to Sacramento could be feasible and a really good route
Interesting I did not know that!
I hope this is not the case as I also feel a route with both passenger and freight would be at the pinnacle of US content right now....
I think it's clear that freight was not the focus and perhaps even an after thought, simply by the fact that the very start of the LATC yard...
Did you keep TSW2 installed? I know they have mentioned that for the switch from 3 to 4 you need to keep 3 installed so it could be something...
Why would you criticize that? It's a great price for 3 routes....no need for that kind of unproductive response that is unhelpful and irrelevant...
Yes because it is getting anew timetable when TSW 4 drops
Not always. Especially with US content, that is why its hard to play with safety systems on in the NEC because you get random yellow signals for...
Here's an example of what the timetable could look like for passenger services (a lot of this is pre covid which I use for a lot of the timetables...
Excellent, this is a route that I know several people want in TSW. If DTG is able to work with VRE it would be awesome to make it happen. The...
That's common with a lot of DTG routes, signals are often red until a station stop is cleared. It might just be how their dispatcher works in...
The route itself isn't bad. They fudged the freight services a bit from the looks though which is disappointing as this was the first route in...
Sorry for your loss. Wish I had the words, but only time heals those hurts. I'm sure she really appreciated having you there all these last years....
I agree with you it would be awesome, and a long time ago I know they had mentioned looking at things like that because there are two German...
There's no route portals so you couldn't do it in one go, if that's what you mean. You would have to exit the first route and go to the second one...
Yeah it's called "The Funnel" haha. I'm gonna do some more research and maybe put it in suggestions.
Okay, I think that would be a good one to look into as a suggestion. Better yet. I think Chemult, OR to Klamath Falls, OR could fit Matt's...
Blacknred81 what are your thoughts on the BNSF line between Spokane and Sandpoint? Its about 65-70 miles and if we ever get Superliners Spokane is...
This would be a good one and probably attainable even at 90 miles because there is really no urban scenery at all, which seems to be the most time...
So actually with this route you could run it all the way out to Rochelle where UP's Global III yard is. That would bring the route to 80 miles and...
Yes California Zephyr would traverse both Donner Pass and Soldier Summit. Four stops and three stops respectively. Marias Pass would actually...
Gotcha, both of those projects are huge and with past release history it would be hard to believe they would do one until it actually happened. I...
I think the northern route would be super cool as well as I used to live there, if it was done properly of course. Some cool and unique gameplay...
What makes you think they would spend several years developing a single route in the background of everything else they are jammed packed doing?...
How did the RF&P fit with the route decision matrix you guys use to chose routes?
It's hard to narrow down what the best direction is, because everyone has different opinions about what they like and don't like which is why...
So this is an interesting point and I commented on it in another thread. Depending on what the word "depot" is referring to, this can cause for...
I have the same hope to that as well and I know quite a lot of other people do too! Would definitely be cool, certainly doesn't seem like a matter...
There are already a few threads about this. I don't know if you had a chance to watch the roadmap, but Matt said they record everything they...
I think a lot of people would love to see something in Chicago. DTG historically has not had Metra licensing (certainly could have changed...
I would agree with that also, I think they are gonna hit Southern California really hard for a while and then move on to something else, probably...
What are your thoughts on what the freight route would be?
And if you look at the pictures they posted on the roadmap article, the interior photo is a Surfliner car. The exterior photo with the red stripe...
Yeah I heard him say that but Amtrak doesn't store any of their Surfliner equipment at Metrolink's CMF so that means that had to get separate...
I think that the first US route on the roadmap will be a freight route for sure, what it is is anyone's best guess haha. The second US route is...
I really think that the US route that is in development in the 6+ month section of the roadmap is a Surfliner route. It's really hard to say if...
That's fair, I think that would be the better route choice going down to Oceanside cause it's considerably busier. However you miss out on having...
Please do! I always enjoy your suggestion posts, and Ventura County is where I grew up so I would love to see it.
Its not on the roadmap but Matt strongly alluded to it being "planned" on the stream today.
Slightly annoyed they wouldn't answer any questions about freight on the stream today!
Surfliner route and the P42 with Superliners are some of the most, if not the very most, requested American content. Now that Metrolink and LAUPT...
I'm a little worried that they may not have made the freight services playable which would be really tragic.
Looks like the services to Lancaster are split into part 1 and 2......sigh
