These train bodies were such an iconic part of the early diesel era, they are fantastic and the Santa Fe is the most recognizable and the most used in artwork, toys etc around the globe.

For sure!!
A lot of the whistle boards are for warnings in narrow areas, bridges, tunnels, blind curves to warn anyone that maybe on the tracks. They are not always at crossings.
It would be so cool to have custom consists, I desperately want to have the F7s pull passenger *anything*. Even if it's Amfleets or Bilevels, maybe use the livery editor to make something for the MBTA cars. That would be awesome.

I remember seeing these when I was a child. My grandparents lived next to the tracks in Ohio. I believe they were in the B&O livery. Such an awesome sight.
If you haven't tried any of the San Bernadino to Victorville you need to. The trains are way underpowered and you can't even do above 10 MPH and 1000 amps on the amp meter. This is way too high and too slow for these engines. They really should of tested these activities before they posted them in the game.

I did the route again with the month set to July. I was able to complete the route that time but like you said, the throttle was maxed out with amps pegging the top of the gauge the whole time, and a lot of wheel slippage. Another thing I learned the hard way is, be sure to turn on the overhead light at night. Also, learn where the engine start and run switches are. If the engine goes into a shut down mode, it’s a challenge to find them in the dark. I went to the training module several times and practiced how to locate them until I finally was able to do it. What can I say, I’m hooked!
Amazing visuals. Love the F7!

...as a kid in the 1960s... I used to watch the top Santa Fe passenger trains...Super Chief...Chief...El Capitan...etc...make the run at Raton Pass from the Trinidad Colorado passenger depot behind four or five War Bonnet F7s...a friendly engineer invited my brother and I up to look around the cab once...a memorable day...unfortunately I can't remember the unit number...I have a War Bonnet F7 HO scale engine in my display case that I have owned for at least 60 years...
I'm glad train games are still being made. I'm still hoping for a train sim with essentially true to life physics in pretty much every aspect for cars/engines/weight/movement and good graphics(both). They seem to be getting close, but I'm not sure its quite there. I'd also like to see really long trains, where I can basically match the longest train ever made in real life if I wanted to.

Nice Sim presentation. Just one small problem. Santa Fe Freights were pulled by Blue & Yellow Units. The Units displayed in your simulation were used to pull passenger trains. Other than that, I enjoyed your presentation. My Father worked for Santa Fe for nearly forty years in the B & B Division. My sister and I traveled on the Cajon Route many times with Dad and on our own in the 1950s.
Also that was epic the over under shot around 10:20 perfection.
A 1951 Super Chief consist would totally make this even more awesome! Thanks for the video!
It's funny I've been down that road you are parallel to a million times. That area between Hesperia and Victorville is where I spent most of my life. It really looks like that.

Thank you again for another great video.
Sometimes there are whistle boards in locations with low visibility or in tight quarters where the trains will blow the horn in so people can get out of that area.
So thought I'd chime in a bit about the signal light is also called a Mars Light. It does indeed wobble and traces a kind of infinity loop like path. Was invented by a chicago firefighter who realized that the movement of a light source would aid in catching attention of motorists to be alert of the fire fighters vehicles.
In regards to the F7 sound mod, that has to be ported to the ATSF F7. Both units have the same sounds but aliased under different paths (cause they're different pak files). So that should be done maybe by the end of today? Stay tuned on the TSC for whenever it comes out. I think it was grigggs making it?

11:23 Not sure if this is the answer but I've noticed whistle boards in real life on the Montana Hi-Line in places where there's no longer a need for them and where you won't see BNSF whistling. It's really small towns like Kremlin MT(?) where there's no longer a grain mill so no longer any cross traffic on the roadways and whatnot. The railroad apparently doesn't care enough to pull the sign. It could be that in Cajon there used to be a roadway and a need for a whistle board but since it's remote they just don't care enough to remove the sign.
Very classic loco. Thanks.

I remember the first time I actually saw that train I was I wanna say seven years old and it was in a movie cold silver streak with Richard Pryor and gene Wilder so I would love to see in that simulator that train pulling its passenger cars also when I was seven that was about the time the first Star Wars came out so we're going back some years but thank you for the video
I did this route through the mountains in January and got stuck near the summit with no way to overcome the ice on the rails. I tried sanding the rails, and even waited for the sun to come up hoping it would melt the ice, only for snow to start falling about an hour later. Another approach I tried was dividing the consist in half and park those cars on a side track on the other side of the mountain, and go back to get the other half. That worked, but I soon discovered the switches were locked with no way to manually throw them. Also, I could not back down to get another run at it because another train was sitting several hundred yards behind me! The F7's are not powerful enough to pull the consist up 2.2% slopes in the Winter scheme.

Hesperia to Barstow doesn’t go through the Cajon Pass at all. Was hoping to see the pass. :( lol. If you have never read about it, read about the Cajon Pass train disaster.
If I can give you some gentle advice, next time use first service just before hitting the curve not on it. You could've also bailed out the independent brakes, that's another option as well.
I also wished they added a u.p. skin for the f7
When i drive the CSX Es44c4 on cajon pass, and i put full power, it reduces the amps for some reason. Can someone tell me why?

Hey Blu Games, how do you turn on the flashing red light at the end of the train while driving it? I’m playing on Xbox with a USB keyboard and I can’t figure out how to turn on the flashing red light for the end of the train while driving my train, it’s very annoying to me that I can’t turn it on before I start driving my train somewhere. Is it a keyboard button or some type of control in the locomotive itself? Please help me on how to turn it on. Thanks! 16:36
