    "The" Delaware Lackawanna Route, the Pocono Mountain Route, or the ALCo Railroad, no matter the name, it's a cool railroad. This is a Class II railroad that started up in 1993. It's an 88 Mile Route that runs through, of course, Lackawanna, Wayne, Northampton, and Monroe Counties. They have PA4s, RS32s, RS11s, RS3s, C420s, M420s, C424s, C425s, M630s, M636s (MLW), and one EMD GP9

    A whole route full of Alcos. That could be cool. Alco diesels weren't as successful as EMDs or GEs, but Alco did have some successful models. The PAs would be great to see in game. Good suggestion.

    I only really considered this because I've noticed TSW has no ALCos and also cause I live near the DL

    Alco’s would certainly get my attention!

    I'm just going to say this take it as is, Trust me when I say many players have asked for years a lot of American Freight Routes and the most common answer back is that Players like Passenger Service more than Freight, I've asked DTG 4 times over 6yrs ago and only got that response back from them, yes I even asked the Suggestion you just posted to Matt himself and had D&L small locomotive company in Scranton PA onboard to have DTG take photos and sounds of the real life area and never got a response back. Waste of time asking for something Freight just being honest, thought you should know. No disrespect just telling it as is. And yes I live really really close to Steamtown so I know the area very well
