I agree that the maps are set in the mid 1990's and that the policy has been to keep the connections as such. This I all agree with. However, how does this affect rolling stock and locomotives? Does this mean no more BNSF engines? No engines built after 1994? I don't think such a policy is enforceable. That is why I voted for both. Keep the connections as they were in 1994, but allow newer engines and rollingstock. This is essentially how things are now as I see it.Steve

Steve,The Maps department has no control over how people operate trains; this issue only pertains to the exit labels on maps. It has long been perfectly acceptable for people to run whatever power they want.-Dave

Yes the labels are for 1994. I assume everyone knows which lines mergered into what? Maybe Conrail is ambigiuos but the others are pretty clear...Jim
