Ok so im going to get to the point I have a friend on steam and we were talking the other day about a project that as far as me and him know nobody has even attempted to make or has even made it. What we wanted to make was the Northeast Corridor running from New York City to Washington DC circa 2028, now I know for those of you reading this you're probably thinking well why that time period and are you guys insane? Well no were not insane but I'm sure you have all heard about Amtrak's plan to upgrade the Northeast Corridor from Boston to DC by 2030 that on average trains would run between 135 mph (for regional trains) to about 220 mph (for Acela Express trains) so the plan is and I have the route prepped aka the Ny to Philly section of the NEC I've added 3 new stations on the route (Colonia, South Brunswick, and Monmouth Jct) some track work will be redone. Now as you all have heard the NJ Transit North Jersey Coast Line was released so now we have a commuter train we can run from Morrisville Yard to NYC. Now heres where the help will come in. We will need people who are good/great at terrain building, route building, track building, programming, repainting, 3d building/ design, and of course making scenarios. For all of you wonderful fans who are thrilled about this amazing idea this route when it is finished will be released for the steam workshop and on this site. As for the people who want to participate if you have the skills I have listed please get in contact with me thru here or on steam (steam name NEC21292 or CJM21292) and my friend on steam (Ploopy523) thanks and I will be posting pics of the 3 new stations.

Done by Danny Leach. He was going to upload it to the Work Shop but it is too big. I presume this is what you are talking about.
