    How would you ever enforce that on driving or flying simulators?
    Make it so airplanes just bounce off the ground?
    Can you still crash with train safety systems on?

    on LIRR2 you can only go max of restricting speed if you free roam on any other route As far as being able to crash, It's not something I would try but I'm sure ,If there's a will there's probably a way.

    I am interested in this route but will only buy if there are no blurry texture issues on PS5.

    100%, their cab signalling is far simpler and pretty easy to follow

    If you are familiar with Harlem DLC then should be very similar experience

    I have yet to watch for myself. Anyone other than Joe doing the timetable I do not consider to be good news. For Rivet, or whoever, just to reach the same level of detail that Joe usually achieves would be the best possible outcome. So, I don't see anyone else doing better, and it could be worse. I still remember the first timetable for NYT, and who saved that one?

    I also note from the article that we are talking about collectibles and mastery tiles. When DTG starts focussing on the fluff is when things can start going sideways. This might be the last Northeast passenger DLC that we ever get for TSW, so understandably I want it to be as good as possible form the start. We seem to be getting closer to release but there are still a lot of questions.

    The only part of the route that will have the NEC/LIRR signalling will be the Hell Gate Line from SHELL to NYP, but as of right now only Amtrak and the freight carriers use it, which can be run in game without safety systems.

    I couldn't agree more. I'm not entirely getting warm and fuzzy feelings about this one.

    Which is why MSFS doesn’t have crash animations anymore. Outside of a horrific event that’s spurned it, the Airline producers and carriers didn’t want to allow the users to see broken planes.

    I am really hoping this is not the last Northeast route that we get for TSW. I would like to atleast see the highly anticipated Hudson line come to TSW at some point as that is Metro North's most scenic route east of the Hudson River. We definitely need Brandon to return at some point if possible. I think there will be more Northeast content eventually. Maybe even a Harlem Line remaster
