A long awaited update to Train538's New Jersey Transit Revamp route on the Steam Workshop for Train Sim Classic featuring nearly 300 miles of track and 6 NJ Transit rail lines with a plethora of services to be operated between New York Penn or Hoboken Terminal to New Jersey's western suburbs. We decided to temporarily start uploading updates here on Train Sim Community because of issues with uploading updates on the Steam Workshop that Train538 kept running into. Enjoy from Badsport_215 :)
EDIT 6/3/24: I accidentally uploaded this with standard & timetabled scenarios that were not supposed to be released with the route. If you have the standard scenarios with your copy of the route you should probably delete them because they're unfinished & I intended on releasing them as their own separate pack when I did finish them.
Requirements
America’s busiest, most historic, and legendary commuter railroad – the Long Island Rail Road – now comes to Train Simulator Classic! A trio of iconic New York City terminals (Penn Station in Manhattan, Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, and Long Island City), across “The Island” to Hicksville, New York.
The sprawling Big Apple and the bustling city of New Haven come together in the exciting new NEC: New York-New Haven route for Train Simulator, featuring many of New York’s famous landmarks and advanced signalling throughout.
Essential requirement as this is the base route for the revamp.
Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor is America’s busiest passenger railroad and among its most vibrant and captivating. Across the Corridor, Amtrak carries more than 11 million passengers each year, the Corridor hosts America’s fastest trains, and it is home to many of Amtrak’s busiest and most famous stations, including classic New York Penn...
Train Simulator’s Peninsula Corridor route delivers dynamic and modern American commuter railroading on the renowned commuter rail line operated by Caltrain along California’s vibrant and bustling San Francisco Peninsula!
Widely known as the “Windy City”, Chicago has now been brought to life in Train Simulator, in the famed route The Racetrack Aurora - Chicago. The route begins under the skyscrapers of Chicago at Union Station, making its way through the urban landscape and out into the western suburbs, journeying along past yards, stopping at 24 commuter...

Hey, ive down some flying around and this is awesome! Are yall considering swapping the tracks and a couple textures?
Would you be able to upload a photo of the route map into the description on the mod?
I thought showcasing a pic of each individual route with an accompanying pic of a train running on the respective routes would be enough.
The six routes included in the revamp are: 1. - NEC, 2. - Raritan Valley Line, 3. - Morristown Line, 4. - Montclair-Boonton Line, 5. - Gladstone Branch, 6. - North Jersey Coast Line.
I use this map at the New Jersey Transit, site for reference: https://content.njtransit.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/maps/RSM_Geographic_110123.pdf
BTW: The Pascak Line is available in the route section of this site and the Bergen Line is available on the Steam Workshop.
What are all the "RouteProperties.xml.to_install" files in the archive for?
Also, one edit you could possibly make manually: dump all the Workshop tags from the actual RouteProperties file (basically, "<WorkshopTags d:type="cDeltaString"></WorkshopTags>", change the number to "0" in the two entries above that, and it will remove the Workshop tag from the route since it's no longer in the Workshop. =)
Just wow ! Boys, never give up !
how do u install this
Drop the route file in C:\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks\Content\Routes and you should be good to go.
Im having trouble finding the folder as shown above^
Nevermind, everything works now.
I have all the dependencies but some tracks are missing, help?
Can I see a screenshot of the missing tracks?
Im not sure how to attach images to a reply but i've sent it in a new comment. This is just one example, im doing a run down the Raritan Valley line now, but more tracks are missing down by Newark Penn and when the Raritan line turns away from the main NJT track.
I forgot about this comment thread, we used the North Jersey Coast & Morristown Line & the Chicago Racetrack for the tracks so if you have those 2 DLC's that you claim you have then they should be there bc I wouldn't know how that would otherwise happen -.-/
After a nice file-cleanup, this is what the route folder should look like on your end.
I wonder in the future will NJT Atlantic city line be added to this route
We don't plan on it since there's already a WIP ACRL route that needs to be released
on the Boonton Montclair line bewteen Wayne Route 23 and Little falls theres a piece of track missing
I was about to mention the same thing. I saw 94 miles to Hackettstown on my HUD and got confused
Yeah, I will release a mini update & fix all those bugs for youse
am i the only one who gets a out of memory crash when im near woodbridge station?
I'll check sometime but I don't believe I get that OOM crash near woodbridge
sorry i was still playing on the steam version i downloaded the trainsimcommunity one and the crash is gone
I have all the required packs but I still get this for most of the scenarios, anybody else?
Those scenarios weren't supposed to be released with the route. I was gonna originally release them as their own independent packs but I accidentally forgot to delete them one time. I would just delete those for now
oh ok thanks, I was just clicking f2 and driving the routes anyways. do I also need to download the original version from steam before this one? I like these scenarios you have so i dont want to delete them lol
Any changelog for today's update?
Yeah i'll post those in the FB groups I promote the route in.
Decemeber changelog includes scenery & tree lines on the Lehigh Valley Line, additional housing & other buildings in New Brunswick, Hightstown, & Trenton. I also put in the buildings for Kean University.
Thanks 👍
Looks like quite the extensive route! One question, why is the LIRR needed for the route to work? According to the map posted above, the route doesn't go any further east than Sunnyside Yard. Is the LIRR required for any assets/trackwork, or just rolling stock?
I ask because I personally am not interested in purchasing the LIRR route, given the performance issues it seems to have, but I would love to give this route a shot if I can.
LIRR was added for some minor details at Trenton & we were planning on merging LIRR route scenery with the revamp route between Penn & Woodside.
So, it wouldn't really be a big deal if I didn't have the route? Just a few missing scenery objects at Trenton?
Yeah
Thank you, I'll give the route a shot!
where can i find a changelog
NEC Simulation Development FB group here at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/NECSimDevelop
Theres no scenery at Bound Brook, don't know if this intentional or not.
You need the Chicago Racetrack & NJCL routes for the scenery to appear at Bound Brook. Check and see if you have both of those dependencies for it. The surrounding trees require the Washington to Baltimore route as well if you want to see those on the map too.
just saw it was updated today whats the cahnge log
