    Here's the expansion pack for Horseshoe Curve. It would be set in the 1940's-1950's-1960's-1980's-2000's-1990's-2010's-2020's-present day. The PRR rolling stock would include M-1a/M-1b Class 4-8-2's, K-4 Class 4-6-2's including the 1361, H-10 Class 2-8-0's, L-2 Class 2-8-2's, T-1 Class 4-4-4-4's, B-6sb Class 0-6-0's/B-28 Class 0-6-0's, I-1 Class 2-10-0's, Q-1/Q-2 Class Duplex, J-1 Class 2-10-4's, S-2 6-8-6's, RF-16 Sharknose's, Baldwin Centipede's, H24-66 "Trainmaster"'s, F-Units, E-Unit's, SD45's, VO-1000's and NW2's with the same freight and passenger equipment like TSC has. The Conrail rolling stock would include SD45's, GP38-2's, GP40-2's, GP30's, GP35's, SD40-2's, SD50's, SD70MAC's, SD80MAC's, SD60I's, U30C's, C40-8's, C40-8W's, and C39-8's with the same freight equipment like TSC has. the Norfolk Southern rolling stock would also include SD40-2's with (both high hood and admiral cab), SD33ECO's, GP59's, GP59E's, GP59ECO's, GP50's, GP33ECO's, SD80MAC's, SD70ACU's, SD70ACC's, SD60E's, SD40E's, GP60's, AC44C6M's, ET44AC's, C40-9's, C40-9W's, C40-8W's, C40-8.5CW's, C44-9W's, ES44DC's, ES40DC's, SD70M-2's, SD70ACE's, SD70IAC's, Conrail Heritage ES44AC, and F-Units with the same freight equipment like TSC has including the roadrailer train, OCS train, etc. The Amtrak rolling stock would include P42DC's, and ALC-42's with the same passenger equipment like TSC has. This would be awesome.

    I originally assumed it was an April fool type post, although I have seen people post suggestions for ‘loco packs’ containing multiple trains, forgetting that they are posting for TSW where such packs are an impossibility. The original reply to the post with even more trains in equally impossible packs was definitely not an April fool, which tends to lead me to a lack of understanding on exactly how much work just one locomotive takes to develop for TSW and why we get one new loco per route or loco DLC product, and not a pack containing 5 or more. A suggestion for a pack with over 50 locos is beyond absurd, for any train simulator, but especially so for TSW.

    Listing all the trains you know can be fun though.

    A loco pack for HSC in TSW would come with one loco, or if they were simple reskins of existing locos in the game, maybe a couple.
