It would have been nice when MSTS first came out with the train-sim to include it to NYC; also I cannot understand why they didn't include the Amtrak AEM-7 ; it is symbolic of the NEC when one thinks of the NEC, after all its been around for almost 25 years and still going strong. Also could have added an E-60 as well. Why did they include those 2 Japanese routes and the Austrian one? They could have included at least 2 or 3 other famous U.S.A. routes.......

There is an E-60 in there....and it's possible to make it drivable, look in the downloads section of this site.As for the comment about the "other" routes....you know, there are railfans (and indeed, people in general) in places other than the U.S.Dan
They did include an E60, but as shipped with the game it's not a drivable engine. If you search the file libraries you can find the files needed to make it drivable, as well as different paint schemes (NJ Transit and Amtrak Phase IV come to mind).Edit: D'oh!!! beat to the punch......Mr. F
