    Hi,
    I wanna see another section of the Northeast Corridor. The section of the Northeast Corridor I wanna see is Washington to Baltimore. I want MARC and Amtrak to be in this route. And the coaches I wanna see Sumitomo / Nippon Sharyo cars. The year I'm gonna say it should be in would probably be in 2020-2021

    I know that the ACS-64 has been added to TSW twice but I'm still gonna say the information anyways.

    it should probably be based in 2015, so you could easily incorporate an aem-7, hhp-8, and acs-64, for both amtrak and marc. then, the acela can be added for both boston sprinter and washington to baltimore. obviously, then you'd want the aem-7 and hhp-8 for boston sprinter, so there would be a 2015 and 2019 selection.

    I had no idea that MARC had HHP-8's, i thought only Amtrak had them!

    Think there’s a chance we’ll see the north east corridor Baltimore to Washington route come to TSW 2 in the future?

    Yup they still have them. Amtrak got rid of most of theirs, and Marc ended up rebuilding theirs

    It is worth noting that DTG didn't secure a license from MARC when they did this section for TSC, so if it does come, MARC stuff may not be available.

    That's a good point but I just had to create this thread because I'd find this to be a great addition. It would be similar to Boston Sprinter but with MARC as well.
