So as their player numbers plummeted, they increased DLC cost. Yet the same weird rushed look to the details remain everywhere in everything they release. Makes you wonder what kind of 3rd world sweatshop that they outsource their route development to. I've seen better quality out of well known crapware peddlers in the Microsoft Flight Simulator marketplace. Their margins of markup must be astronomical. $60 for this? Yikes. I really hope your excellent and entertaining RUclips videos at least pay off enough to cover these extraordinary costs.
4:59 Petition for Boston North - Lowell & Haverhill. This would also give an option to run the select trains that run on the lowell line until Wilmington before taking a branch line connecting back up with the Haverhill Line.
i just discovered that a lot of the earliest train sim world youtube channel videos are of routes and locomotives we got now in tsw dk if that means anything just found it interesting
MBTA also acquired some more CTC/BTC-5 as an option for the current fleet with numbers 1828-1866. All of em are in service, along with 1800-1827. Also, the CP AC4400CW from Searchlights Simulations for TSC has that feature as you mentioned about the autostart and shutdown.
8:25 The acceleration on the HSP is amazing IRL, much better than the F40PH-3C/GP40MC (because of it's 4600 HP compared to 3000). That's why they prioritize the use of the HSP on the longer/heavier trains IRL.
4:20 What is odd is that they did not include the 2022-2024 order of BTC-4D and CTC-5s. They are basically the same, except for a few minor details, such as a different horn, the cab door not being painted, and the vestibule door window being in a different spot
As someone who often rides sounder, I don't think it would make a good addon for TSW. It's very infrequent especially on the N Line. If it was included with the Amtrak Cascades and BNSF freight services it would be well worth it, but I can't see Dovetail putting in that much effort.
So an alright route i guess, though i never really play US routes or any others except the UK because i can never seem to start up the trains outside of the tutorial. And i just mostly enjoy uk stuff overall.
Dovetail routes (and some others) are always sub-par there are only like 2 developers that I actually like, if they didn't make content there would've been no way I would've bought TSW5
While the route certainly looks nice and I do love seeing more of the T (common nickname for the MBTA), I'd love to have seen one of the North lines that operates out of Boston's North Station on the former Boston and Maine lines.
Another reason why the route appeals to me somewhat is that it's a modern portion of the B&A route that's in Train Sim Classic, made by G-Trax, in the New York Central era.
TBF this route has very realistic scenery, even the high way exits sign was the same as IRL. I90 is not that busy IRL due to it is a tolled highway many avoid it due to the toll.
ps2 GO Transit in Ontario Canada is kinda existing in the TSW as the Oakville subdivision route however there is no first party timetable for GO train. But there is a good timetable mod on train sim community
I certainly like it, and it is one of the best US Routes in terms of overall quality, yet not without problems, there was some stuttering I encountered between Framingham and Worcester for example. I did download the patch to fix the wrong numbering. Overall, decent, I'd say!

Ladies and gentlemen, we gather again for another review! 🚂

I've heard of Searchlight's AC4400CW, but I haven't got it.
13:29 Mimicking an LED sign we have on the highways IRL. Provides various information/important news/etc.

Savin me money. Well done review.
Yet WCML Preston to Carlisle has a high download size of 17GB

Just like how other countries think the US is entirely Texas I think in DTG's head the US is just California and Massachusetts
That's where the license is
Not even a minute into the video and I'm dying of laughter. Good old DTG ineptitude on full display 😂
I thought I'd just let the crossing issue play out without me mentioning it.
@@DC4260ProductionsIt certainly was a nice touch. Let the image speak for itself. You're a true showman 👍

Fun fact. The Term "Tram" in America is only used in San Francisco. Californians sometimes call their streetcars "Trams"
TBF this route has very realistic scenery, even the high way exits sign was the same as IRL. I90 is not that busy IRL due to it is a tolled highway many avoid it due to the toll.
Ps I think the quality of this route deserve at least 8/10 as it is a really good route with realistic scenery, good locomotives and signaling
ps2 GO Transit in Ontario Canada is kinda existing in the TSW as the Oakville subdivision route however there is no first party timetable for GO train. But there is a good timetable mod on train sim community
my flight was cancelled, so let’s watch a review to calm down
