At The Railyard: 1904 New York City

- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- ...New York City has always been well known around the world, but its fame was different at the turn of the 20th Century. The city was still very industrial at the time, and the five boroughs had just been created. Can this Microsoft Train Simulator route, which contains the IRT Subway network and the 3rd Avenue Elevated, take you back over 100 years to the big apple?

Nice use of While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Really brings some of the scenes together. Very nice Nick.
They had steam engines on those Subways? I never knew that, nice review!
mafia 1 City of Lost Heaven
They sure did
That’s elevated
The elevated lines, not the subways.
wow, 2 reviews within a week, good effort Nick, hope we can one day see some Australian stuff. Great job man =D
Cheers
Very nice artistry, Nick. Seamless and engaging
Minor nitpick, but I noticed the steam locomotives are smol saddle tanks. They did work in New York around this time, but not the IRT. I think the steamers were 0-4-4T or 2-4-4 Forney Bogies. They were apparently a favorite among rapid transit lines before EMU sets
But everything else is great!
Nice review Nick. Did you know the push for building subways in Manhattan in the late 1800's was because on the south end of the island the *daily* accumulation of horse manure across the streets was in excess of 9-12 inches? Now that's a real incentive!
oof lol
The elevated cars did get a new lease of life on the Key System who made modifications to them for the transporting ship building workers on the Richmond Shipyard Railway in the Oakland area during WWII.
High noon in the summer was a quieter time in the city and that’s when most vintage photographers were taken
fantastic review as usual =D keep it up!
I was very impressed with the video and the simulations were wonderful.
It would be interesting to incorporate the simulations into a game like RR Tycoon.
Just a little clarification only the Manhattan portion of the El was dismantled in the 50's, the Bronx section (Gunhill Rd to 149th st) operated until the April 1973, when it was replaced with a NYC express bus (The BX55)
Nice review Nick. Sorry I wasn't able to comment sooner.
Very nicely made video.
Cool video
A four year old route gets the seal of approval but not a newer route of the Donner Pass XD
Wow, this route portrays NE cities a lot better than the Northeast Corridor did. All those buildings looked the same, and there wasn't a lot of them.
this was uploaded on my brithday.
Nice!
Saw, could you review the Irish Enterprise South by Making Tracks?
Music?
The Entertainer is in there.
In the credit at the end.
I doubt they had cars on every street lol
