ACS-64 SEPTA

[OpenRailer90]

According to this site (http://septa.org/rebuilding/vehicles/locomotives.html) SEPTA has ordered 13 Siemens ACS-64 electric locomotives for a grand total of $154 million. They will replace the aging AEM-7s and the sole ALP-44 still on service, and the new units are expected to be in service by 2018.

I requested this to do SEPTA services in Train Simulator 2015 between Trenton and Philadelphia. Repaints of the Shoreliner coaches in the P32 pack (3rd rail variants) in SEPTA livery and the San Diego Commuter cars in NJ Transit and SEPTA liveries are also welcome.

An NJT ACS-64 can be done as an ALP-46 placeholder. I saw Bagged Gamer make one on YouTube but it isn't well made.

That's a pretty dope looking scheme for the ACS.. A good look for SEPTA as well. Though I don't think the Bombardier cars will work well because the Doors are a bit too low for the Platforms between NYC and Trenton. I wish DTG or whoever could work something out with some Proper NJT equipment.

The DTG Bombardier bi levels can serve as a substitute, but I'd rather see Shoreliners (P32Pack01) in SEPTA livery.

I started working on this quite awhile ago, but then had to tear down my desktop for 7 months to move overseas. I am now back up and running. just finished the final touches on this and tested it. I am using the DTG Bombardier bilevels from North Jersey Coast, so you will need it and New York New Haven route for the ACS-64.

Now that's called resurrecting a dead subject for a GOOD reason.
