Railworks America

I like to plan ahead before I decide to buy some american DLC on steam.

So before the next major sale gets here,I'd like everyone's input on some great american DLC (Locos,routes) and see what I should get.Here are my top 5:


EDIT: Debating between E-1 and berk pack for #4
Please leave feedback on what I should get! I prefer the CSX and the Amtrak kind of stuff,but also steam locos...

Personally I like Nickel plate stuff so I went for the berks but if you like the E-1 better, go for it. The berks have some things that need fixing but in railworks what doesn't, (if you get the berks download the physics upgrade V2) I plan on making a big fix for it and releasing it here. the ac6000 though is worth it (I think)

Do you have smokeboxs fef3 and the consolidation,also britkits has some nice steam engines

oh yeah those are very nice and highly worth it and detailed. even if the FEF-3 is not on sale it's still worth the $20

I have both engines,very good models to have! I've been thinking about britkits steam,but I'm not sure what to buy....besides the E7 and E8.

I guess find the locos you want most and if really want them around the same then flip a coin I guess idk (I am not good at helping others make a decision because I usually make the wrong one ) it's what you want. or you can buy one and get money for Christmas and buy the other

I've narrowed down my choices and it's either the ES44DC or the AC6000CW for my $50/$60 plan.I could do some nice repaints on the CSX ES44AC (steerable tucks) since I got that on accident,so I just need the ES44DC.But I heared the AC6000CW is a must....

But if I use my $60 plan,it's the AC6000CW or the ES44DC 1st,then it's the SD75 or the SP SD45......In general,which of these locos in each pair have a better overall rating??
If this didn't make any sense here:
Open with notepad.

Note:I did the math.Based on if it was the christmas sale or a 50% off everything.

Well you said you were waiting for the next steam sale (which will be the thanksgiving sale in three weeks) and if you get the AC6000, ES44DC, SD75 and SP SD45 and they usually go for half-off so that's $40 and you said you have a $60 plan so you can buy a whole two more loco packs if you want If you don't have it I'd go for the NS ES44 and SD70ACe heritage twin pack for $15 and still have $5 left over. (I've been doing this loco pricing tango ALOT)

Well I did plan to but the Miami WPB and New York New Haven to expand my CSX and Amtrak fleet.Plus the diesels are more vulnerable.The Dash-840CW could get a repaint into UP (Not knowing if Up had any like CSX,but hey,it's fun to have some fiction right?),which means another loco in-game.Same goes for the AC6000CW.It could be in fictional NS,BNSF,etc.(MTH and BLI made some,the model railroad co's,not any RW developer)
The only difference is the trucks,yet again....

ok if you want the Miami WPB and NY to NH then go for it. for the sd75 and sd45 just pick which one you want most, but the sd75 is not much different then the sd70m just a new cab control stand is all but a side from that, same sounds, mostly the same outside look but the sd45 is much different then the sd40-2, with opening cab windows and doors, dimmable lighting, a gyro light and more
P.S. UP has mostly D 8-40Cs not CWs but there are some, and yeah have some fun it's your world

Aww krap.It was $70 not $60,there's no $10 wallet cards out there
Which means most of the stuff on my list can be bought,discluding the SD75,since I chose the SP SD45 over it.

That means everything on my updated list can be bought! And I'll have roughtly $1 left!
