    This has got to be added in TSW4! We need more American Routes especially subway! They are so many Routes to choose from but im not gonna give you one bc I aint American. Mot American Routes are either freight or they run in the desert. This is why i am suggesting this. I'm getting bored of freight and desert runs in America. Maybe spice it up and make a New York subway.

    Matt has pretty much ruled out NYC Subway as the operator will not cooperate regarding access to trains or study of the route in the tunnel sections.

    Best hope is that some enterprising third party can put something together in the public editor but given the amount of unique 3D modelling that would be required it would be a long shot at best. The trains would also need to be made from scratch, by someone not only skilled in 3D modelling but able to set up the sounds and physics in Simugraph.

    It is virtually impossible to get any technical data on the system. I've been trying for 30 odd years.

    Guy called Jeff Morris did something for the system in Trainz and there were a couple of BVE routes but I suspect these were in large part freelanced.

    Think someone copied the wrong link.

    At least it wasn’t porn!

    You are correct and speaking of the Newer trains the R211T has Gangway connectors like the TSC Justrains S Stock. Therefore you need two Physics in Simugraph R211A and R211T
    Here's a R211T

    I think what really should be done is to collaborate with creators making content for OpenBVE and see if we can create content with the textures and assets and references with the grades. It isn't perfect, but it's a great starting point I think we can go off of with the PC Editor out now.

    Don't get me wrong, I'd dearly love to see something with the Redbirds in, but there are numerous technical challenges - not only sorting out one shot grade time, two shot grade time and station time provision on the signals, but also knowing that they were there and provided. In fact, aside from GT and ST provision knowing where the signals are actually located would be nice.
