UP Livonia monroe Sub doesn't get too much attention from scenario writers
So I decided to fill the gap.

Two-part scenario is about UP QLINL northbound manifest train, powered by NS Dash 9-40CW and UP SD60M

Thanks for making scenarios! This is a difficult but necessary job.

Nice for a start. Technically 4152 is an AC44C6M rebuilt from a Dash 9.

True, someone should replace it with that AC44C6M rebuilt from a Dash 9 model that DTG put out a while back

Lets not pick the scenarios to death for a detail like that already. This route is a pain to make scenarios for, so lets be thankful that Awaken1977 put the time in to do so.

Don't know of any actually AC44C6Ms in Horsehead out yet as of now but the Dash 9 definitely works as a stand in. Thanks Awaken for the scenario, can't wait to run it sometime.

looks like Dash 9 not available anymore? the link to DLC for me goes nowhere. Or it's because BNSF-related add-ons banned outside US?
I think it should be re-done to "unbranded" package, because the package also contains NS and CN versions.

Despite it's very dated add-on, I love this model for scenario traffic and yards, because it is low-poly and doesn't adds much load to CPU. For example, I added 8 or 10 HiLine ES44DC to the Havre Yard,
and scenario became barely playable. Then I replaced it all with Dash 9, and there's huge difference in framerate.

The D9 pack is USA only but PennCoal has an NS D9 that's available worldwide
