    NOT REQUIRED: Metropolitan Line: Aldgate - Uxbridge & Amersham Route Add-On (Error by Steam)

  • *Munich-Augsburg is strongly recommended as so much scenery is dependent on it.

  • Munich-Augsburg: http://steamproxy.com/steamstore/app/208288/

  • New Jersey Coast Line: http://steamproxy.com/steamstore/app/325970/

    Estimated Distribution of Assets

    • Track is Sherman Hill and signaling is UP Style Search Light from Sherman Hill additional Tri-Light Signaling is from the New Jersey Coast Line Route.
    • 25% buildings and 45% roads are from the Munich-Augsburg.
    • 25% Buildings and 40% roads are from Sherman Hill
    • 25% Buildings are from American/European Asset pack.
    • 25% of Truss and Plate bridges are from the New Jersey Coast Line pack.

      We hope this encourages other people to try their hand at route creation. It was a great deal of work. The son had 183 hours in the game when the route started, was at over 530 hours when work started April 3, 2014. As of June 2021 we estimate 11,200 man hours of work. Work consists of building, testing, research and a ton of 'kitbashing'.



      Extra effort was given to topography and elevations. So the grades, while an average between stations,reflect the real - life grades along the route. Extensive use of USGS maps, historical aerials and Google Earth aided in recreating the elevations for hills, mountains and streams. Road and building placement are either dead on or within 20ft. Satellite images where used extensively as some of the buildings and track do not exist today. The large industrial area in Mahwah is the Ford Mahwah Automobile plant which closed in 1980. The way the track is laid west of Hillburn Yard is also circa 1980. What is interesting about this layout is that one could recreate the era between 1955 and 2021 by simply subtracting or adding very few bits of track and structures.



      I am sure the fans of this area and of the Erie-Lackawanna, Conrail, Norfolk Southern, and New Jersey Transit will appreciate the work.

      Carry on!

Are you ever going to extend the route beyond Port Jervis? Abd is there ever going to be station stops added down the true Mai Line? Ie; Paterson/Paterson Yard?
i was wondering if you would connect the lyndhurst portal and complete the line even tho thats not apart of the route, maybe you could complete that part and make it a separate line or js put it in the bergen line route, i was just wondering though if you are ever planing on doing that part of the route

This route is amazing and really shows the history since it dates back to 1979 with the exception of Secaucus Junction. I'd love to see this route focusing on how it looked back in 2000 to 2003 with being able to pass through harmon cove and bergen junction. Great route!

Good day all. I'd like to use AP weather but I'm having trouble finding the assets folder with the time of day. Does anyone know the name of the folder,
Thanks

Have you tried reinstalling Munich-Augsburg
OldAlaskaGuy 30 nov 2023 om 22:30 
The only thing that I can think of is it is in the game settings.
Venturian Fan 30 nov 2023 om 17:29

Venturian Fan 29 nov 2023 om 16:29 
Hey Minerman,
Awesome route, but i have a few questions... Platforms like Plauderville wont load in. I have all DLC required and was wondering if this is known issue. And if there is a fix for it. Please let me know.
Thanks.
