With UP restoring 4014 into working order, I felt that playing around with her on a 7 hour excursion from San Bernardino to Barstow and back was appropriate. The hope is that one day, we will see excursions like this in real life. I know this video is long, so here is a time table of contents so that you can skip to the parts you wish to see:
0:00 - 48:00 - #4014 performs yard shunting and builds her 25 car excursion consist at San Bernardino Station.
48:00 - 2:38:00 - #4014 Fights her way up Cajon Pass via the South track (3.5% grades)making for some nice low speed chugging action before reaching the summit and coasting down to a quick rest at Victorville.
2:38:00 - 3:37:00 - After sitting at Victorville for a few minutes, #4014 departs and makes with due speed up to Barstow Station.
3:37:00 - 4:03:00 - #4014 uncouples from the majority of her excursion set (taking 8 cars with her) and proceeds to wye at Barstow.
4:03:00 - 4:36:00 - A pair UP EMD F7s already at Barstow run 5 cars around to the rear of the excursion before running back up to the front to assist #4014 on her way back down to San Bernardino.
4:36:00 - 5:24:00 - #4014 and her F7 helpers lead the now 30 car excursion back down to another short layover at Victorville.
5:24:00 - 6:30:00 - #4014 takes the excursion back through Cajon pass on the North track this time and down to San Bernardino Station. Running speed in this segment maxes out around 90 mph.
6:30:00 - 6:54:00 - #4014 uncouples from the excursion set and allows the F7s to shunt the set back onto the station platforms before they come to a rest on the outer track.
6:54:00 - 7:01:00 - #4014 backs herself up to her original position at the start of the day where she will rest and pose for photos after a long day of work.

Thanks for watching =) Hope you enjoyed this video (movie).

PLEASE READ BEFORE WATCHING:
With UP restoring 4014 into working order, I felt that playing around with her on a 6 hour excursion around her home base of Sherman Hill (Cheyenne to Laramie) and back was appropriate. The hope is that one day, we will see excursions like this in real life. I know this video is long, so here is a time table of contents so that you can skip to the parts you wish to see:
0:00 - 22:00 - #4014 pulls out of the roundhouse via the turn table and performs yard shunting to build her 27 car excursion consist at Cheyenne.
22:00 - 38:00 - #4014 Backs out of Cheyenne Yard with her consist onto the mainline track 1.
38:00 - 48:00 - #4014 pulls her train from the switch junction into Cheyenne Depot to pick up passengers, where she poses for a few photos before departing.
48:00 - 1:34:00 - #4014 departs Cheyenne and beings the battle up Sherman Hill on the mainline train 1, which has a grade of 1.5%.
1:34:00 - 1:41:00 - #4014 pulls into Granite siding to take a breather, and allow local railfans to snap more pictures of her.
1:41:00 - 2:07:30 - After a brief stop at Granite siding, #4014 starts her 27 car train from a dead stop on the 1.5% grade, demonstrating her power as she continues up towards the summit of Sherman Hill.
2:07:30 - 2:33:00 - #4014 finally reaches the summit of Sherman Hill and begins her high speed (65 mph) decent towards Laramie.
2:33:00 - 3:12:00 - #4014 arrives at Laramie, unloads passengers, and poses for pictures before proceeding to wye her train for the return run back to Cheyenne.
3:12:00 - 3:47:00 - #4014 backs her train into Laramie Depot to pick up her passengers before departing for the march back up Sherman Hill via track 3 which has a slightly more gentle grade of about 0.8%.
3:47:00 - 3:58:00 - #4014 rejoins the mainline at Hermosa, and continues over the Summit before splitting from the mainline again past Dale.
3:58:00 - 4:34:00 - #4014 continues downhill on track 3, cruising at 65 mph until she reaches Speer, where she takes advantage of the water tower for a quick drink.
4:34:00 - 4:48:00 - After refilling her tender with water, #4014 departs and continues towards Cheyenne.
4:48:00 - 5:00:00 - Arriving at Cheyenne, #4014 drops off her passengers.
5:00:00 - 5:51:00 - #4014 spends the remaining hour switching her passenger cars back to their exact original positions (using the balloon track [5:12:00]) before coming to a rest on the refueling track.

Thanks for watching =) Hope you enjoyed this video (movie).

All of the video that you post are amazing and Interesting. I also got the Train Simulator 2014 game. But there is a question i would like to ask you. How do you create a train schedule for a line? There has been no tutorial for that. Also why in some of the scenario where you drive a route in the night dark? Is that suppose to happen :)

It's dark simply because of the time of day. The sun ain't gonna b out at 3 in the morning lol. I don't know very much about developing in TS yet, so you're better off running to the RWA forum and digging around there.

Most are at the steam store as DLC. The Chinese stuff I have linked to elsewhere in this thread already. Obtaining DLC for free would be a crime, although there is freeware available if you know where to look for it. A good place to start would be the RWA forum, or even a Google search. However,  a good amount of freeware is DLC dependent; ie, it requires that you own some DLC for the freeware to be 100% functional. Other than that, yes, I would wait for a steam sale, where you'd be able to pick up what you really want for much cheaper than the normal list price ($20 for new rolling stock, and $40 for new routes).

In other "news," I've been working on modding the EMD F59PHi:
Train Simulator 2014 HD: Amtrak EMD F59PHi Physics Adjustment and Speed Test Along the NEC (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE8SmuWQlGE#ws)
^Changed mass from 104 to 120 tons to improve adhesion, tweaked dynamic brake curve to more accurately simulate DC dynamic braking; set maximum braking amps to 760 (rating of resistors), and set maximum traction amps to 1500 (limit of the ammeter). Also adjusted fuel capacity down from 4800 gallons to 2000 gallons.

List of mods I have made so far:
1. Change RPM range to 468 - 1047 and adjusted fuel consumption rates based on information here: http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287 (http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287).
2. Adjust Tractive Effort down to real world values.
3. Adjust Braking Effort curve to simulate realism.
4. Adjust amp limits so that the in cab ammeter displays properly.
5. Increased weight from 121 tons to 130 tons to simulate fully loaded locomotive
6. Increased fuel capacity from 1800 gallons to 2200 gallons.
7. Increased air brake application and release rates. Original rates are painfully and unrealistically slow.

Honestly, I like the P42DC, and I would say that aside from the sound issue (inaccurate prime mover sounds), it is definitely one of the better DLC being offered. It's up to you whether or not you want to wait for a sale to mass purchase. I'm going to be uploading a physics mod (for both the F59PHi and the P42DC) soon for download at RWA forums, and there will also be a sound mod soon by another user over there. I'll keep you guys posted.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCk4exfsR5Q# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCk4exfsR5Q#)

This is the P42DC Physics Upgrade and HEP Version Addition pack.

In order to utilize this freeware physics upgrade, you must have purchased the Amtrak P42 DC 'Empire Builder' Loco Add-On pack avaliable at Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/222627/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/222627/)

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

THIS IS NOT A SOUND UPGRADE PACK. Physics adjustments made around the existing sounds

The purpose of this pack is to correct some physics errors in the original P42DC pack.

Parameter Change Log:
1a. Change RPM range to 200 - 1047 and adjusted fuel consumption rates based on information here: http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287. (http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287.)
1b. Lowered RPM change rate from 40 to 30.
2. Adjust Tractive Effort down to real world values. Default TE ratings are too high.
3. Adjust Braking Effort curve to simulate realism.
4. Adjust amp limits so that the in cab ammeter displays properly.
5. Increased weight from 121 tons to 130 tons to simulate fully loaded locomotive
6. Increased fuel capacity from 1800 gallons to 2200 gallons.
7. Increased air brake application and release rates. Original rates are painfully and unrealistically slow.

This pack also converts the NC locomotives (the locomotives that do not have crew members in the cabs) into HEP running versions.
The parameter changes for those locomotives are the same as the ones for the non-HEP versions except for the following:
1. Change RPM range to 900 - 901 and adjusted fuel consumption rates based on information here: http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287. (http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?4,1871287.)
2. TE Ratings for the HEP versions are lowered realistically, since power is reduced by HEP draw. Calculations for non-HEP locomotive are made with 3850 wheel HP, while calculations for HEP locomotive are made with 3000 wheel HP.

IMPORTANT; Install Instructions

1. Open the "P42Pack01Assets.ap" pack file with .7z
2. Proceed to open folders until the .7z directory reads "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\P42Pack01\P42Pack01Assets.ap\RailVehicles\Diesel\".
3. Then open the "Railworks_P42DC_HEP_Addition_and_Physics_Mod.rar" file.
4. Take the file folder named "P42DC" and drag it into the .ap file.
5. Click "OK" when it asks you to Confirm File Copy.
6. The installation should be complete. Run TS2014 to check.

Thank you for downloading and installing.
Enjoy =)

Train Simulator 2014 HD: Amtrak PRR GG1 Departs Edison with 14 Car Amfleet Northeast Regional Set (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hG60h-nBZ4#ws)

This is the GE PRR GG1 Tractive Effort Upgrade pack.

In order to utilize this freeware physics upgrade, you must have purchased the PRR GG1 Loco Add-On avaliable at Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/65242/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/65242/)

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

The purpose of this pack is to correct the blaring tractive effort curve errors in the GG1 locomotive as it was originally released.
Specifics about the TE values can be found in the first few posts of this thread: http://railworksamerica.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=10728 (http://railworksamerica.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=10728)

I am not responsible for any damage that installing this pack may cause your machine. ALWAYS be sure to back up original files in case you need to revert back to them.

Parameter Change Log:
1. Created passenger-geared version's TE curve.
2. Created freight-geared version's TE curve.
3. Lowered maximum traction amps to 2800.

IMPORTANT; Install Instructions

1. Open the GG1 asset pack until the directory reads "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\GG1Pack01\RailVehicles\Electric\GG1\Simulation"
2. Then open the "Railworks_GG1_Tractive_Effort_Mod.rar" file.
3. Drag both file folders named "Passenger" and "Freight" from the .rar file and into the directory you opened in step one.
4. The premise of this pack is that you can only run one version of the GG1 at one time.
5. Before playing TS2014, choose the version you want to run (passenger or freight), then proceed to copy the contents in the respective folder into the directory from step one. DO NOT DELETE THE FOLDER afterwords.
6. The installation should be complete. Run TS2014 to check.
7. If you wish to change the version you are running at any time, exit out of TS2014, and repeat step 5.

Thank you for downloading and installing.
Enjoy =)

Title: TS2014: Amtrak EMD F40PH HEP and Physics modification preview
Post by: Fan Railer on February 19, 2014, 09:20:00 pm
Here is my first highlight of progress on the Amtrak EMD F40PH HEP and Physics modification pack. The modification is actually progressing much more quickly than I had anticipated, and I should have a pack ready for download by the end of the week (watch in 720p or higher for the player to work):
Train Simulator 2014 HD EXCLUSIVE: Amtrak EMD F40PH HEP Addition and Physics Modification Preview (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3db_7ozxto#ws)

Parameter Change Log (so far):
1. Change RPM range to 260 - 893.
2. Adjust Tractive Effort to EMD F59PHI values. Original Tractive Effort values are all messed up
3. Adjust Braking Effort curve to simulate realism.
4. Adjust amp limits so that the in cab ammeter displays properly.

This pack also converts the No-Conductor locomotives (the locomotives that do not have crew members in the cabs) into HEP running versions.
The parameter changes for those locomotives are the same as the ones for the non-HEP versions except for the following:
1. Change RPM range to 893 - 894.

I have not yet decided whether to lower the tractive effort ratings for the HEP version, and I may very well leave the two TE curves identical. Other than that, I think this is 98% complete.

Title: TS2014: ACS-64 Boost Mode vs Continuous Mode Acceleration Test
Post by: Fan Railer on March 07, 2014, 12:05:39 am
Here are the two different acceleration profiles of the Amtrak Siemens ACS-64 (physics dropped into the existing AEM-7). First up from start to 4:50 is the boost mode (6400kW) profile. From 4:55 to the end is the continuous mode (5000kW) profile. Note that I have adjusted amp ratings to reflect tractive effort in kN (1 amp = 1 kN). You can see that the different acceleration profiles follow the tractive effort curves as seen here: http://www.mobility.siemens.com/mobility/global/SiteCollectionDocuments/en/rail-solutions/locomotives/customspecific-solutions/amtrak-acs64-en.pdf (http://www.mobility.siemens.com/mobility/global/SiteCollectionDocuments/en/rail-solutions/locomotives/customspecific-solutions/amtrak-acs64-en.pdf)

Note the difference in time it takes for the locomotive to accelerate the 8 car Amfleet train while in the different modes.

If you really need to ask something like this, then it is pretty clear that you are unable to simply Google search this and decide for yourself whether it's worth the risk that the file you are torrenting may or may not be what you want it to be.

That being said, none of us here are going to advocate torrenting a program (or any program) of sorts that the rest of us shelled out our hard earned money for. That's all I have to say.

Title: TS2014: ACS-64 Traction Physics Mod Released
Post by: Fan Railer on April 12, 2014, 09:41:11 am
Train Simulator 2014 HD EXCLUSIVE: Amtrak ACS-64 Traction Physics Mod Pack Released (4/11/14) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqIx75IBzwk#ws)
This release video showcases the testing of boost mode (6400kW) and continuous mode (5000kW). Regenerative braking remains at a rating of 5000kW in both modes.
Take note of the time and distance differences between the modes during acceleration. Both tests conducted with 8 car Amfleet train and focus on time and distance to reach 125 mph and also regenerative brake only distance and full service brake distance.

README:
This is the Siemens ACS-64 Traction Physics Upgrade Pack.

In order to utilize this freeware physics upgrade, you must have purchased the NEC: New York - New Haven Route Add-On available at Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/258643/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/258643/)

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

THIS IS NOT A SOUND UPGRADE PACK.

The purpose of this pack is to allow the player to run the ACS-64 in either Boost Mode (6400 kW) or Continuous Mode (5000 kW).

Parameter Change Log:
1. Three different "tractive effort vs speed" files included; one for boost mode, one for continuous mode, and the default text file that the game engine reads.
2. Maximum sustainable speed increased to 125 mph via changes to .bin file parameters.
3. Regenerative brake adjusted to operate down to 1 mph. Maximum effort (34,000 lbs) available from 75 mph down to 3 mph.
4. Ampere parameters adjusted so that 1 amp is = to 1 kN; maximum tractive amps/kN = 320, maximum braking amp/kN = 150.


IMPORTANT; Install Instructions; REMEMBER TO ALWAYS CREATE BACKUP FILES TO REVERT TO INCASE THE INSTALLATION DOES NOT WORK AS PLANNED!

1. Open the "NewYorkNewHavenAssets.ap" pack file with .7z
2. Proceed to open folders until the .7z directory reads "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\NewYorkNewHaven\NewYorkNewHavenAssets.ap\RailVehicles\Electric\ACS-64\Default\Simulation\".
3. Then open the "Railworks_ACS-64_Traction_Physics_Mod.rar" file.
4. Highlight all files in the .rar file and drag them into the .ap file directory.
5. Click "OK" when it asks you to Confirm File Copy.
6. The installation should be complete.
7. Extract the contents of the .rar file into the following directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\NewYorkNewHaven) in order to ease the process of switching between modes as described in the following set of instructions.

Utilization instructions:
1. The premise of this pack is that you can only run the ACS-64 in one mode at any one time.
2. The default mode of the pack is "boost mode."

1. File is in mono.
2. File is 16 bit.
3. File is 44,100 hZ
I have also played around with the volume of the K5LA in respects to the bell, tuning down the originally loud bell and raising the airchime volume.

Mine is a physical copy, but ultimately, there shouldn't be a difference between where you purchased the game, since the steam client on your computer updates the game to the latest version anyway. Can you be more specific about what kinds of bugs and problems you're experiencing? I do experiences crashes and bugs myself, but of course, you wouldn't know if I didn't tell you haha. And thanks for the compliment; I try.

It basically the same problem that other user who play train simulator 2014 steam encounter. Some of the common problem that i have is when i try to leave the station, the train won't won't budge. I try restarting the engine and it still doesn't move. I even try using the emergency brake, and slowly release the brake, and it still won't move. You can tell that i am not the only person that is upset when using this game on steam. When you go to the review section for train simulator 2014, you can see so many users give this game a thumbs down. Don't get me wrong, i do enjoy all of the content that the development team are releasing. It just that they don't want to fix the bug problem. I don't know if this is the steam engine workers who focus on fixing all of bugs fault or the one who makes this game for steam engine.

They are basically using the same as engine as the next train simulator, which is unreal engine 4. Its unbelievable and amazing at the same time. Train simulator need to fix some of the bugs problem on steam in order to get back their star. Also for the next version of train simulator they need to incorporate the idea of multiplayers so that they can still be the number train simulator game still. :)

If I remember right, there is supposed to be a procedure that you need to go through to get the hitachi train to run. Make sure you've gone through that procedure. If you don't know what it is, you can go read the manual that is available on your hard drive and online for this specific train. You can run american diesel trains just fine, right?

Driving the American Trains such as Amtrak and other Disels weren't any problem for me, but sometime the game crash on me. Not only that but i also have trouble getting inside the passenger car view. For some reason when i try to go in to see the passenger view on the Amtrak EMD- AEM-7 Amtrak 5, it won't let me. These are some of the problems that i encounter. Hopefully they will be able to fix these problem in their next release of train simulator 2015 version. :) http://www.engine-driver.com/article/show/4681/train-simulator-2015-announced-for-18-september-2014. (http://www.engine-driver.com/article/show/4681/train-simulator-2015-announced-for-18-september-2014.) One of the ideas that i they should incorporate is train announcement in the station and on the train such as the metro north line.  :) :D

I just found out that the Amtrak that i was referring to doesn't have any passenger view at all. They should really make all train have passenger view in the next update, I hope. :) Unfortunately train simulator 2015 is not the one with the new game engine. Everything is going to be the same as ts 2014, except with one new feature and one new route with a high speed train in the UK region. :)

This is the SD80MAC Tractive Effort Curve and Dynamic Braking Effort Curve Modification pack.

In order to utilize this freeware physics upgrade, you must have purchased the "CSX SD80MAC Loco Add-On" pack avaliable at Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/277733/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/277733/)

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

THIS IS NOT A SOUND UPGRADE PACK. Physics adjustments made around the existing sounds

The purpose of this pack is to adjust the TE and Braking Effort values for more realistic operation.

Parameter Change Log:
1a. Adjusted Tractive Effort and Braking Effort curves based on data found here: http://web.archive.org/web/20041114163210/http://www.siemens.cz/extra/msv/cd/TS/Vozidla/Diesel-Electric_Loco_SD80MAC_EN.pdf (http://web.archive.org/web/20041114163210/http://www.siemens.cz/extra/msv/cd/TS/Vozidla/Diesel-Electric_Loco_SD80MAC_EN.pdf)
1b. And here: http://thecrhs.org/Information/SD80MAC-Technical-Information (http://thecrhs.org/Information/SD80MAC-Technical-Information)
2. Increased locomotive weight to 432,101.6 lbs (196 metric tons) for better adhesion characteristics.
3. Modified HUD ammeter readings so that 1 amp = 1000 lbs of tractive or braking effort.
3b. Maximum tractive amps should be 185 from 0-8.5 mph (185,000 lbs of TE); maximum braking amps should be 96 from 17.4 mph down to 0.5 mph (96,000 of braking effort).

IMPORTANT; Install Instructions

1. Locate SD80MACPack01 (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\DTG\SD80MACPack01)
2. Open the .ap file with .7zip and drag all files in the .7zip window into the directory from step one.
3. Highlight all folders in directory from step one, and go to properties, uncheck the read only box and click apply.
3b. If step three is not completed properly, the mod will not install.
4. Open DTG_CSX_SD80MAC_Traction_and_Dynamic_Brake_Physics_Mod.rar
5. Open your directory until you are here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\DTG\SD80MACPack01\RailVehicles\Diesel\SD80MAC\CSX
6. Drag both file folders from the .rar in step four into the directory you opened in step 5.
7. Overwrite when prompted.
8. The installation should be complete. Run TS2014 to check.
9. If installation is botched or does not work, to back up to original files, repeat steps 1 and 2.

Thank you for downloading and installing.
Enjoy =)
