I am in the process of fixing my old work, I rushed the first time I did my route and alot of work was sloppy. But now I am taking my time and redoing the line all 150 baseboards, not staiting from scratch but redoing stations, track, Catenary, you name it i'm redoing it making release ready. So as I have been doing for the last four months, update shots time. So can you guys please say something I hate just having the only say in my route, I know it it my route but I like to know what you guys think, so as I said before make it a great commuter route, for the people.:)

I love the reskin of the ACS-64 or the look alike. I know it is not the look like but it looks good (to me)

I am still working on the new transfer station/terminus. I have no names for any of my stations(as of yet), so this is a no name station. But it is about 70% complete(the station). Also I am in the process of constructing the Catenary, ​ similar to the one that Amtrak constructed north of New Haven. So there I give you, my commuter/inter-city route. A work in progress. So guys tell me what you think?

Thanks

This is a fictional Commuter route, and also can some of you guys help me. CAn you suggest ideas, that I can try to make this route better. Thank you.

I suggest getting rid of all the non-speedtreez.

Use all DLS assets also.

It looks like I could have some fun with that route.
 
Update but no screenshots
so to the news because of copyright issues I am constructing a brand new corridor. Not route but a new extension to replace the copyrighted section. So work has begin but dont expect screenshots for about two weeks.
 
Ok, I have a news update. Since I cannot. Contact the orginal authors, instead of uploading it to the dls I am going to after completion, I am going to have a window open to take request for a file. I dont want to infringe on copyrights but I still want people to enjoy. So that is my plan of action. Tell me what you guys think.
 
A single update shot, now that I am taking my time it is taking me a long time to do a baseboard, so here an update shot, NEC inspired.

I have a question guys, what are some attributes of a good looking town? PM me or just put it in the tread.
Also I have permission from neuman706 to release the route, Thank You very much neuman706! means alot! That is all today see you guys later!
 
Update, I finished I would say about 1/3 of the route, trackage, stations, but I still have to still have to add those extra things like signals and stations extras. I took some pics of a session I did, it is 60 miles as of 2/3/13 the completed part. The first half. So were looking at a 90 mile route.

I made this yard about two months age, my old yard was so ugly so I remade it and this is what I got. It is about 30-35 tracks in the main yard and 5-7 in the maintenance area. It is huge and I have no idea when i'm going to install overhead wires, but I will do it before release.

I make a station a union station. This station is where all trains stop, commuter, regionals, and expresses(Acela), Amtrak also serves here.

When I tripled track and this station was on the ballot for reconstruction,. But this station needs lights and an invisible station installed
amtrak2041864_20130203_0003_zpsaaea72f7.jpg

Also this station, this is where triple tracking ends, and some trains terminate here. Most locals, expresses start up the line at Milburn. This station is about 40 somewhat miles away from Penn Station. Amtrak out.
 
Guys I have an update but in a from of words, well I have been thinking about it and guys I want to extent the line by more then 100 miles, the reason for this is after Amtrak trains leave Or break from the main route they just go into portals. Which I think sucks so. I will be developing a new line branch. But I need some help, the line is way too long to do by myself. So I was wondering if route creators can create 20 mile sections, then later join them. I know it is alot but I think by adding this extention it can benafit the route. If you would like to help P.M. Me if you can, and thank you for your time. Amtrak out.

Also, the line will be based off Amtrak line from New Haven to Boston. I really like that section of track and I think It would be a great model. Ideas are very much loved. And thank you again. Amtrak out!
