Ah guess I'll release my video as a railfan one then. It's way past due haha, still got to film the last scene. Curse you Run8.

I don't know if is it me or not I've been playing with this new NEC route and I've noticed I can't play freeroam and I can't get to Grand Central Station. !*don-know!*

I know Amtrak doesn't go through GCS, but however I've seen rarely Amtrak with P32AC-DM going through GCS before. *!rolleyes!*

Oh another thing we do need Amtrak P32AC-DM and Metro-North P32AC-DM and rolling stocks

Maybe DTS will put it up for steam market with skins if they ever plan on making P32AC-DM since both are Amtrak and Metro-North! !*cheers*!

Are you trying to say that there are no free roam scenarios or that the editor won't allow you to make a free roam?

There are several scenarios that run into Grand Central in the Workshop, albeit with the incorrect equipment, so it is possible to use the editor.

What I am talking about is making a free roam from scratch? Is there anything preventing that?

Nope. I'm perfectly able to make free roams.
I think he was referring to no included scenarios going into GC or quickdrive not listing GC as a destination (I didn't check that)

You might be capable but the question wasn't directed at you. As far as your comment, so what? So if there aren't any make some. I don't have the route but I can't imagine that it's not a destination.

Indeed, GC Station is not included among the available Quick Drive destinations.

But YES, it is possible to create scenarios from / toward there.

The reason that this area is still "unexplored" is because DTG will create specific scenarios for the Kawasaki M8 (I think).

PS: There are also some scenarios for that area in steam workshop (with fictitious rolling stock):

"I don't know if is it me or not I've been playing with this new NEC route and I've noticed I can't play freeroam and I can't get to Grand Central Station."

Look I'm not trying to start an argument here. I am just trying to understand the problem. This is the quote from Amtrak's post. It didn't say from quick drive it merely said he can't play free roam. Then he said he couldn't get to GCS. What I was trying to ascertain was whether he didn't know how to create a free roam or whether this route was preventing it.
!!**sorry**!!

Idk if anyone has noticed this but, it doesnt rain under station platforms shelters, or under bridges, which as far as i know is unique to this route.
