Just wondering how to get access to services from Atlantic Terminal in timetable mode. So far this spur has only been available in a single scenario, Kings and Queens. Timetable mode does say however that there should be 181 available runs, but only 28 are listed when I bring it up. Do I need the M3 available to unlock the other ones or something? Do I need gold on enough Penn-Hicksville services? What's the deal here?
What input on the pad is that bound to? Guessing whatever it does on PC they unbound it from the keyboard on console, since pressing it on my connected keyboard does nothing. (Oh huh, well, guess someone realised their mistake and deleted that reply)
change your livery. The livery selector just changes the size of your consist and change what services you get. So the are in 10 6 and 8 car.
It's interesting that they implemented it this way for this route. Not noticed anything similar on any of the other lines I have, but I should double check. Most routes the livery selectors just bring up custom ones, while one or two like Arosalinie all services are available with both available liveries.
Actually if you look at the Arosaline one everytime you switch liveries it changes the shield and name on the side of the loco and circulates between all 8 different ones. I think the 465 does it on SEHS as well like the LIRR where it gives you different size consists.
Ohhhh that's actually an interesting one, I hadn't noticed it cycles through even more of them on that one.
I was in the middle of typing out a very longwinded way of saying this exact thing when you posted, so I’ve deleted it and written this instead. I hope with the new update that this selection process for liveries and consists lengths is improved with at least some labels for what you are picking. It’ll save us all having to explain this to every new player on the forum! There will be many more players who never ask missing out on some consist options because they don’t notice the little livery icon for trains that they know only have one livery.
Good to know as that's on my wishlist, since like Transpennine, it's a line I travel on in real life.
If you want to do that go to the timetable mode press a button on M7 or M3 if DLC is purchased then there are livery options and what you're looking for is 6 car trains. 8-10 car trains M3 & M7 are to Penn Station. In reality, 8 car trains Penn Station or Atlantic Terminal 10-12 car trains Penn Station only.
Maybe once they go back to lirr to address issues that weren't fixed like audio, they could change the car consists. Like you say 8 car trains run to Atlantic Terminal-Brooklyn, not 6 car trains. There are a few times where you get 6 car trains but most are 8 car and it would be nice to get 12 car trains in the timetable
Correct but 8 car trains can also run Penn Station to Hicksville then AI drives them to Huntington or Ronkonkoma. These days locals along the main line aren't happy with 8 car trains
