I love you videos man! Glad you did a video on this equipment. I remember seeing the AEM-7s screamin up and down the corridor. Fun fact, my dad was recorded as the fastest locomotive engineer in zone 1 (BOS-NYP) reaching 131MPH for an ACS-64! Big f40 fan as well!
No way thats awesome man, a buck 31. the 7s never looked like much externally but powerful as all hell and quintessentially amtrak from what i remember as a kid (80s baby) Thanks for the kind words 🙏
Dude I learn more about railroading from your “blabbing” than I do from a Wikipedia page, I love the videos man, keep up the good work and make sure to have fun makin em.
Just bought this the other day and I was not disappointed. I’ve been waiting so long for the t to be on a train simulator and they did an excellent job imo
Glad you built the foundation for this, when I first heard that i knew it had to be worth a look. Seems recepted well so far, maybe future projects on the horizon 😉
I'm really liking the engine sound on that F40.. They've managed to give the sound the feel of a big engine.. It's quiet but it's still got that low end rumble
Me personally as a Bostonian, they really half-assed this one for sure. The fact of the matter that we've been asking for this route for many years including MBTA messaging DTG personally, and all we get is Boston to Providence is wack as hell.. Hell they couldn't even add several more miles to Wickford Junction to complete the entire commuter rail route. So sad whoever was working on Boston to New Haven Line project got scrapped all together for TS20XX; would have been nice to see the final version of that. Not sure why they wouldn't include every MBTA rolling stock from the get go. MBTA are the one's asking DTG, and all they give us are the B/CTC (tall windows) coach cars, and a F40PH-3C. Even if they're included later, it seems dumb to release it right now for what it is making it boring and unrealistic using the same consecutive rolling stock on the NEC. I want to see multilevel cars, B/CTC comet-style cars, F40PH-2C, GP40MC, HSP46, etc., etc. Also they've said it themselves in the livestream they have a full highspeed section through Mansfield but they don't even bother putting out the Acela. How hard can it be to release something that's been out for more than a decade on TSXX?
I take the orange line train (which is the subway route on the side of this map), I have to say they got the general idea of the area.I would have liked to see the Ruggles 3rd platform and forest hills be a stop(even though the needham trains stop there)
I think it could be a bit louder, these things are notoriously loud , zero sound proofing almost in the cab. Def above par in my book tho for dtg NA content
Can we or someone with me at least try and get them to add the p42 to this?? There about realism and they run both plus misc ones! I live here in Massachusetts I KNOW!
Idk if you figured this out already but when atc and acses beeps, you gotta go to suppression braking until you reach the lower speed. It says it's overspeeding, but you don't get a penalty.
Well yes and no, kind of. While there are signals it's more atc/acses based in cab signaling. If its all switched on and youre not paying attn, itll bite ya quick 😉
no manual and next to useless tutorials because usually there's no explanation how to restart the train after an emergency stop ... it takes too long to do the tutorials just to find out there was no instructions about how to start the train after an emergency stop ... then to not have an instruction manual just makes it really really bad ... maybe there should be an option for on screen tips for how to restart the train ... the game wastes my time and money ... popping trees ... the save game issue ... not being able to restart the train ... i say don't buy it

Thanks for the shoutout, man! Really like your format and am excited with what other videos you make for this route.

Thanks for everything you do!!!

This is the best damn trainsim channel on TH-cam.
Don't let the britsimtubers hear that.
Naawwww, I'm blushing 😄. I appreciate the kind words.
I honestly just try to do things different - I'm glad some appreciate it
I'm really liking the engine sound on that F40.. They've managed to give the sound the feel of a big engine.. It's quiet but it's still got that low end rumble
Even though I played this route for hours. I watched this months later because I wanted to listen to what you had to say about this route.
What’s up there “Puffy Jacket” 🤣 😂. Friggin’ riot! Needed a laugh today. Thanks Bro.👍

You know, you could have had nothing at all 🤷🏾♂️ Just a thought
@@TheHornMagnet I rather have nothing than an incomplete route.
@@radanju3 Good thing that’s your own opinion, not a good one but it’s an opinion
Welcome to euro devs building American things lol
I didn't realize MBTA asked them to do it that's dope.

Great video! F40 at the start is, yeah.... eh I guess. Grateful it wasnt a paste from Peninsula. Just needs a few fixes to have it be close to proper.
I think it could be a bit louder, these things are notoriously loud , zero sound proofing almost in the cab. Def above par in my book tho for dtg NA content
The catenary appearance has changed in some sections after some updates.
They made all the scenarios during winter because this route is "winter themed" and the next two routes will be "fall themed" and "summer themed"
Open the cab window then you get the grunt of the engine.
I got the TSW4 special edition and this is one of the routes on it. I’m looking forward to it.
One of the best NA routes in any TSW title, mainly because dtg had little to do with the route itself, sounds etc
I am wondering if they would connect Providence Rhode Island to new haven or New York
The door open of the coach apparently is normal according to what Matt said in the stream. Apparently that vestibule fills up with snow in the winter.
Can't believe they just leave em open, even sittin in the yard overnight etc... feel like some critters would crawl up in there 😄
Can we or someone with me at least try and get them to add the p42 to this?? There about realism and they run both plus misc ones! I live here in Massachusetts I KNOW!
Thank you for doing what you do😀
The ACS-64s replaced the AEM-7 in 2016 and had 8600 hp
Have the new(ish) N.E. Corridor and have never been on it yet.
Idk if you figured this out already but when atc and acses beeps, you gotta go to suppression braking until you reach the lower speed. It says it's overspeeding, but you don't get a penalty.
Does this route have scenarios where the engineer has to be precarious to signal indications?
Amtrak 174 timetable service comes to mind.
Well yes and no, kind of. While there are signals it's more atc/acses based in cab signaling. If its all switched on and youre not paying attn, itll bite ya quick 😉
*writes down 'train 174' on hand for later*
50 miles? Looks like their routes are getting slightly longer.
"old and antique" and "ryzen" said in the same sentence makes me feel old as fuck lmao. and i've only been into computers since like 2014
Same. I grew up w SNES
Im still pretty PC illiterate
Would you look at that, we are getting an Acela boyssssss👏🏻
Can i play this on laptop. Can you name the laptop this will be good for
Why can't the trains have more external glass shine effects effects? It looks so odd when there is almost no texture in the glass.
They still have some problems with UE and overhead wires anti aliasing I assume adding that effect will make everything harder to see
NErd! Love it!
Did the update fix the crossing gates
I take the Boston train alot
Guys I urgently need your help, im on xbox and im missing dlc and its telling me to redownload how do I do it
Go into ‘manage game and add-ons’ and you need to uninstall all of the DLC’s you have and reinstall them and then they’ll work
@@bmill24 seriously why is dovetail doing this to there customers
I'm gonna get this dlc
They did fix the gates yay
Does pineapple go on pizza?
No, pizza goes on pineapple 😬
