Tsw3 has a lack of rapid transit routes, the only subway in the game is the bakerloo line. I think the path train would be a great route and easier then most other subway systems. The path train (port authority trans Hudson) is a rapid transit line linking Newark Penn station, Jersey City and Hoboken station with 33rd street. The line is 13.8 miles long or 22.2 kilometer long line. The line features 13 stations and a branch to the world trade center. The rail alignment out of Newark Penn follows the northeast corridor to exchange place where the world trade center branch starts. The main line branchs up to Hoboken terminal, Then it runs under the Hudson river to Christopher street where it turns and runs along the b,d, and f trains to 33rd street. Equipment The path trains are operated by 350 pa5 trains. The pa5 train is a rapid transit emu that can be expanded to meet demand. Under current service they run in eight car trains. The trains can fit 35 people in each car not accounting standees. The cars can reach 55 mph. Lines There are 4 path lines, they are Journal square - 33rd street via Hoboken. This line is 5.5 miles long and serves 8 stations Newark - WTC. This line 8.9 miles long and serves 6 stations Hoboken - WTC. This line is 3 miles long and serves 4 stations Hoboken - 33rd street.

Route is a hybrid of Bakerloo line Journal Square to 34th St Herald Square & World Trade Center via Hoboken and Exchange Place stations Newark to Journal Square is your Harlem Line section 70 mph max. Retro trains PA1-4. These days PA-4 are work trains. Towards Journal Square from 34th Street Harold Square during the late nights/weekend you actually stop in Hoboken Grove Street is transfer point between Journal Square 2 34th Street Herald Square via Hoboken and World Trade Center to Newark trains to make up for the green line not running. Speaking of this There is actually a transfer to the Broadway 7th Avenue line at 14th Street it's a block long passageway between them. On Broadway 7th Ave line 1 2 & 3 trains you are going to hear connection is available to PATH train when they stop at 14th Street
That would be a good route to add and this could add ai traffic layer on to to the NEC New York Penn- Trenton
Spot on and weekends and late nights Green line doesn't run instead you have NWK WTC Red line and the combined Yellow and Blue Lines which is the JSQ to 34th Herald Square Path platforms via Hoboken Terminal. PA-5s display is HOB/33 from Journal Square while back to Journal Square it's HOB/JSQ
With new rolling stock coming to train sim like the f125, I hope we will see PATH in train sim world. It's new and fresh to the train sim series
Bumping this. The entire system, to be frank would make a great dlc. Espically with the rolling stocks uniqueness. PATH technically is a railroad which leads to many quirks in the system, despite being rapid transit/subway in function
Oh most certainly! I was just too lazy to make a whole new post for five but yeah. I would love to see Path implemented with like all of its safety systems and everything and possibly just the full system considering it's relatively small
hmm, isnt too long but for shorter sessions or back to back rides why not... and the trains look nice
By the way this is actually regulated by the Federal Railroad Administration therefore positive train control is actually activated here combined with cbtc. Because the rule in the United States if it's operated by the Federal Railroad Administration jurisdiction it must have positive train control fitted. I have a picture of a PA5 here and it's my own work which I took on January 20th 2025 this one has an advertisement. For the development team they must keep this in mind photography needs permission
