Hi all. I have lurked here for almost 2 years (is that a record?) and I finally got around to posting, so I'm not a complete newbie. Anyway I am the author of the Camden MARC activity pack. What do you think of it? I aware of the following bugs:-On the southbound path I accidently send you through a fueling track with a 15mph speed zone
-The Camden line is not electrified so diesles and cabcars are usedI am preparing a corrected release of the original pack (using the NALW MN P32 units and horizon cars, as close as I could come to MARC equipment) and am also (finally) adding all PennLine trains to the NEC mainline. At some point I will also do all Amtrak NEC runs (all 86 of 'em) and all SEPTA runs on the NEC. Wish me luck.

Updates:Camden:
I am correcting some errors I made the first time around with the paths and will release Camden v2 within the next week or so with that fix and also more realistic consists, using cabcars and maybe even a MARC diesel I am working with another member on.PennLine:
About 1/2 done with creating the base activities, but I found a path error that may necessetate (sic) me redoing all the timetables thus far. Also still need to make communal traffic file. First Release within a month hopefully.SEPTA and Amtrak:
I need consist info. If any of you NEC foamers keep track of weekday Amtrak and SEPTA consists I would like to know, especially the long-haulers, as I want to make each of those trains unique. In due time we'll have NALW's next masterpiece to finish off the roster with some viewliners and other stock.Please note that I am a student first, railnut second. If the line goes silent for a while, be patient. They will come eventually.

RE: Camden MARC

Marc Camden Line Version 2 is on its way to the FL. It fixes the southbound path and uses push-pull consists with the NALW horizons and David Fischer's new MARC GP40 repaint. I'll be out of touch from now until next week, so I may take a while to get a response back to you if you have a problem with anything. Also Marc PennLine (all 44 trains player drivable with full MARC traffic) is done and will be uploaded after I get back.Sorry for bringing this thread back up, but I thought it was a reasonable follow-on, and besides it is my thread .
