All Caltrain Content Being Removed On 27 February [update: Unbranded Version Coming 16/10/25]

Fired up the Baby Bullet then for a run down from SF to SJ.

It does all look a bit pitiful without any branding but better than nothing I guess. Wondering if any station buildings were removed as a couple of locations (like South SF) looked a bit bare.

Of course this is a very old route now and it does kind of show. A shame while the debranding was taking place, the rest of the route couldn't have been given a bit of a facelift. It's very Run 8 like in some places. At the least could have added reverb to the bridges and tunnels.

 

Enjoyable route. Went for a spin.
The route selection tile has not been updated, showing Caltrain livery on the F40.
edit: Noticed the tile in the store has been changed so maybe next patch.

 

here for me it was changed showing the F40PH without the caltrain logo
I'm on steam

 

PC players if you want branding for the TSW 6 versions.

Is it possible to install Boston suspension on the F40 CalTrain?

 

The mod doesn't restore the Caltrain signage to the sides of the Central Maintenance Facility @ San Jose

 

PS5 here. Double checked and the logo is still there.

 

I like the unbranded stuff better. I mean it's mostly the same colors and everything, but being unbranded I can run it anywhere and just make up a reason. It's "generic" enough to work a lot of places.

 

Or simply copy your TSW 5 versions into your TSW 6 DLC folder. Works seamlessly.

 

I'm honestly surprised they were even able to have kept the colors to begin with, especially since, in my opinion, it would've made a somewhat big change to the aesthetic of the route, particularly waiting at bigger stations such as San Francisco.

I would've imagined they either would've just recolored the locomotives, or greyed them out completely.

 

Yeah, when I first uploaded the mod, the intent was to slowly restore branding on pieces of the SFJ route, starting with the locomotives themselves. Eventually, I'll be getting to the other portions of the route such as, like what you have stated, the Maintenance Facility.

I'll probably update the mod this weekend to reflect that specifically. Not sure if there are any stations on the route that have any sort of CalTrain branding that needs to be restored.
