The Amtrak coaches

[DriverK]

Our sim seems do not have the Business class of Amfleet, maybe we should make a Business class Amfleet with Business class interior, and there is no Amfleet Cab car in TS, also the Office cars seems never appear in TS or TSW. As there are some fellas try to make the new coaches of Amtrak, maybe we also need to make some coaches to update the rolling stock of Amtrak in our sim.

Actually, apart from the 1178-1195 series of baggage car, the P42 and the Acela locos. Almost all the Amtrak rolling stocks in TS
are not correspond to the real size.The Amfleet even 2 metres shorter than the real, and the widest part is narrower than Heritage series,
and the Heritage series are longer than the real.The Superliners are shorter and the center coaches of Acela are longer.
Maybe somebody think it doesn't matter, but if the cars are shorter or longer,
it will affect the gameplay. For example, the real Amfleet is 26m long, if the Amfleet is 2 metre shorter,
it is 24m long, then 10 coaches should be 240m. If there is a siding in the sim is 250m long, then the siding
will be able to store the 10 coaches instead of too short for the coaches according to the reality. The deviations of length
make the scenario a distance from the realistic.

I noticed the "nudging" in some of the other suggestions from this person. Not sure if he's picked up the "hint" yet?

What "hint" is it? We are not playing quiz game. It is not wrong to say it directly.
