Yet another new US route on the way

[thecanadianrail]

the only hard fact we have is that it will not be an Amtrak, BNSF, or UP route.

Show me proof that it cant be?

If the clue is Amish country, there's a pretty strong Amish presence in Indiana, could be the South Shore Line/Metra Electric, though that includes some Amtrak. There's also a pretty important/famous freight line through there isn't there?

[Ericmopar]

My guess is the Milwaukee line.
Little Joes were built in Erie PA. One is in a Museum in PA.
Queen Elizabeth II visited PA in July 1976...
The movie Witness was centered in PA, used a train and Philly station...
The windmill could be a dutch reference and the Amish are what? The Pennsylvania Dutch!

Either that or a famous PA line... NERWs ?

[thebigroyboyski]

Dutch County PA has a few Norfolk Southern lines going through it.
There is also Strasburg Railroad in the area.
Elizabethtown is also close by.

common Milwaukee road, Milwaukee road, Milwaukee road!

I just can't think of where the brick wall comes into things.
I used to go on holiday to the area when I was a kid so I'll ask my parents next time I see them and see if there is a famous wall in the area.

[johnmckenzie]

The wall?

How about this?

MILL - WALL - KEY (or QUAY - depends on next clue) - ROAD

[thebigroyboyski]

We have a pair of clogs this morning. I'm still going with a PA route.
The New Holland secondary is also in the Lancaster area.

Im thinking its not going to be a US based route now.

In agreement. Let's remind ourselves that the statements "the next US route that DTG releases" and "the next route that DTG releases" are in fact different statements.

Has everyone forgotten of the clue from May 10th?
The Queen or royal or...

Yep, the Queen visited PA back in the 70s. I still think it's going to be a PA route. Maybe out of Philly.

I still think these hints are for a non-American route.... Why would Dovetail include the realistic braking system if they are not going to bother including a mountainous route? Or am I wrong about eastern PA not having any grades?
