    I built a freight train with 2 F7A and 4 F7B, 93 Clinchfield Coal hoppers and 1 caboose on PS5. It crashed often. After I made a save game it will crash just when I try to load it. It seams that route is not optimized well. And that's why we have 45 car trains there only.

    I also tested a regular timetable run on HSC since i got my series X i counted cars on the A I,freights that were passing the longest trains ive seen were 70 to 80 or so cars the lengths 45 to 80 is what i counted in various trains the 80 car one was a tank car train and 70 car ones were a double stack 15 sets of 5 well cars , and a few 60 to 70 car coal trains
