I would love to see more Conrail EMDs Like the SD40, GP locos, and old GEs

Okay, after my rant, I studied more about WABSIM and ESS, especially their purpose of built. So it was tp make a historical replica of old day's loco and their control systems, so no coupler connetion for ESS and DPU, which is well recognized and understood now.

However, the biggest problem even with this is that your DPU control panel has "none" for the DPU control, which makes in unable to send DPU signal over radio, which made me think "if then the DPU signal should be wired too, that doesn't make sense because DPUs should/could be placed all over the trains". Nevertheless, it was clearly my misunderstanding, so I aplogize.

Another minor improvement would be set the engine room door to open in the opposite direction, so not toward cabin but the engine room. Much better and easier to get in and out.

I mean you can just put 2 electric connectors on the coupling arm, and set one to carry the ESS signals, so you don't need to hook up cables. Also, the rolling stocks don't need to process nor do anything with the ESS signal, so they just can directly relay the signal back and forth with the secondary electric connector. I just modified all of them right after leaving my comment.

ESS is meant to go through cables, not couplers, and the couplers carry WABSIM brake signals. I have no idea what a multi-functional coupler is and that's not how this locomotive works in real life. As for double headers that isn't possible without a second crew or DPU controls in real life either. The other electric cables are for decoration. As for the rest of the feedback, I'll take it into account on my next build! :)

I ... I just discovered that the electric cable anchors that aren't red are not even connected to the battery. They're stupidly redundant and serve zero function, when you don't have the single connector to relay the most relevant signal. I'm speechless.

> Not having an actual ladder, only decorative ones so you can't properly enter your loco
> Spawns with only "individual brake" on, which doesn't even work without turning on the system, so even harder to get in.
> Even worse, you have a totally functional "emergency brake" to prevent this.
> You can't even really get out of the engineer seat, because of too tight space

However, with all the "interesting" decisions made, the single biggest problem is, why the hell didn't you put a 2nd connector on the coupler to relay ESS?? I precisely have 0 idea why I need to hook up extra cables when I already have the multi-functional coupler is on, but that's not even the most important issue. Your rolling stocks don't even have the stupid red electric cable anchor to even relay the ESS signals, so you can't even make a double headed train. I would've been okay if this was due to some proper technical difficulties or too much effort needed. Da fuq, you wasn't even able to put 2 connectors?????

Is there a horn?
luckymario8910 2 Aug, 2023 @ 7:38pm 
if you are struggling with reversing, you can go into the trailing locomotive, turn 'engine run' on and set the reverser to forward, it should work then

Also if you can add a horn for the train that would be awesome. I love the train, it's awesome.
Jayed 5 Jun, 2023 @ 9:53am 
I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but when I connected all the cars that you had to this train, it only moves at 7.23 mph. I followed all the instructions and also turn all the cars lights on. I even turn on the gens for the double deck cars.
evanstab0918 24 Mar, 2023 @ 2:31pm 
i followed the steps in the description but it still only goes 5mph

no b unit?
poopupupu 10 Nov, 2022 @ 5:09am 
nevermind...
poopupupu 10 Nov, 2022 @ 4:54am 
It will not reverse
it simply will not
Wolfy 3 Nov, 2022 @ 3:59pm 
i got the hole train going 100+
Enzocats  [author] 3 Nov, 2022 @ 12:30pm 
The train hasn't been set up properly if it's only going 10, it should go around 65 mph
cheezbocks 2 Nov, 2022 @ 6:26pm 
Is there any way to make this go faster? The thing is struggling to go 10MPH with the whole train
Wolfy 30 Oct, 2022 @ 11:15am 
what is it then?
Enzocats  [author] 29 Oct, 2022 @ 3:29pm 
Definitely not this one
Wolfy 29 Oct, 2022 @ 3:27pm 
what is your most powerfull train?
Enzocats  [author] 29 Oct, 2022 @ 9:56am 
The bridge is a modified version of this https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2158115925 and unfortunately the signals are just props i made for screenshots
toasteyes 29 Oct, 2022 @ 5:46am 
Wow, those bridges and signals look so good! Could you tell us if they can be gotten on the workshop?
Wolfy 28 Oct, 2022 @ 2:32pm 
i treid it but it dous not work
Enzocats  [author] 25 Oct, 2022 @ 6:26pm 
Each car has a key switch to release its brakes located at the end outside near the stairs if it continues to be a problem
Enzocats  [author] 25 Oct, 2022 @ 6:26pm 
Assuming only one loco has the automatic cut in valve on then idk because i didnt make the brakes. https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2879114743&searchtext=
CaptElijahIrelandYT 25 Oct, 2022 @ 4:24pm 
It happens above 30 MPH which isn't normal for a train.
CaptElijahIrelandYT 25 Oct, 2022 @ 4:21pm 
@Enzocats How to control the wheelslip, always one set of wheels on the coaches goes off, it's always a different car.

thank you

what is that bridge in the background?
Enzocats  [author] 24 Oct, 2022 @ 3:27pm 
Yeah it still works for me, can you describe what you are doing- like all the buttons you press and stuff?
Enzocats  [author] 24 Oct, 2022 @ 3:21pm 
Nope, I haven't changed anything since yesterday afternoon, ill take a look
ølkongen 24 Oct, 2022 @ 7:09am 
Nice
HurricaneRocker 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:27pm 
all of them are on including fuel switch and even infinite fuel and electricity
still won't start
Enzocats  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 6:18pm 
If it wont start the engine's not getting fuel or it has no throttle, make sure all the flip switches are turned on on each engine control panel as well as the fuel pump switch in the cab
HurricaneRocker 23 Oct, 2022 @ 5:16pm 
RPM won't go above 154.12 so it won't start
Enzocats  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 3:32pm 
You need to connect the MU cables between the locomotives.
