A remaster is just lighting and scenery updates. Not adding new stock or extending. Cajon Pass is already on TOD3 with probably the best scenery of all the us freight routes. Also those locos to the non US fan are just a bunch of numbers. Please explain why each would be unique and enjoyable differently to what’s already in game.
Resources would be better spent on an all new US route. As regards Cajon, could never really engage with it in TSW as opposed to Run 8. Amounts to a bunch of A to C with the trip split at B for the most part, runs. And the most glaring issues with the scenery - the gaps in the distant hills - unlikely to be addressed.
Nah tod4 wasn’t a thing till tsw4, Tod 3 is still good just inconsistent between routes and the night lighting is pretty washed out sometimes
