Yep, and it is fantastic. Even Newark looks awesome this time around.

Yeap now all we need is some Multilevels, Comet V coaches, PL42ACs, and GP40s.

Though I'm not sure if the bilevels run along the Bergen section, do they? They've gotta really bring as much NJT equipment as they can put out. There's so much that could run on the old NEC alone. I'd love to see it all, really. They've really opened up a can worms with this lol.

Now that I think about it, I'm wondering how come they didn't just model the comet v coaches as well. I mean, I guess I'll just make a consist with all V cabs until they push out the coaches.

Seriously, mate. Wind your neck in.

With a pair of travelers at each windowpane.

Or I may sit elsewhere, never knowing you.
But if fate should mark me to sit by your side,

Looking at this conversation about coaches, I realize how much I like GO transit. Just Bombardier Bi-Levels, designed by GO, and MP40PH's with the occasional F59PH.

I have seen Bi-levels on the Port Jervis Line in Mahawah, NJ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWIgj_gOJ6E
but not on the Bergen.

Idk...maybe it's because Comet V cabs are on all single-level trains. Don't know why they made a Comet IIM (Similar to Comet IV, but lack center doors and numbered in 5300/5400 series)

Multilevels are seen on the majority of trains at least that I've seen on the North Jersey Line. A few hours ago I was stopped at a crossing in Red Bank and saw a consist of an ALP-45DP with bilevels. Although they may be a DLC down the line, I believe that they are an essential part of this route.

I have to agree with you 100%. I can see them coming in a forthcoming DLC product, probably an ALP-46 and/or PL42AC (PL42Pack01 will have a diesel-configured CC, while ALP46Pack01 will have an electric-configured CC)

A U34CH might be a nice loco to have :)

Am I the only one thinking how good this route would be if it was set in the PRR 1950's era with GG1's and K4's or DR-6-4-20 passenger shark noses?
