I tried this map a month or two ago and wasn't able to get the perfect score after way too many attempts. Tried it out today and got the perfect score on my first try. Felt really good to achieve that after struggling so much the first time :)

This is a pretty great map. Definitely a favourite. It's pretty difficult, but an absolute blast to figure out - especially the southern trains going towards and from the Hudson River Tunnels.

Fantastic work. Thanks!

It's been a hot minute but I've just played it again. I want to drop two tips about "A" interlocking (the one for the Hudson tubes).
1. The signals for the westernmost 11/12 crossover can and should both be used for NJT westbounds. This means two important things:
(a) You don't *have* to maintain right-hand running on the two ladder tracks: get an inbound and a westbound crossed over (westbounds to the west ladder track, eastbounds to the east) nice and early, as this will mean they will clear each other's paths nice and early.
(b) In a pinch, you can line two westbounds out until the crossover. This will, again, clear routes early and prevent your second departure just sitting at the platform exit signal sucking its thumb. Not that you should need that extra time given the schedule padding, but it looks cool and might clear a platform in the nick of time.
2. Go crazy aah, go stupid aah, line a signal somewhere else and then do some overriding to enable Amtrak/NJT sawbys

A very good map. One of the best in the game.
Balance between difficulty and fun.
Can you extend the schedule to 24 hours?
Thank you

This is a limitation of the game, the maximum number of platforms is limited to 11

I'm informed elsewhere that prototypical NYP has fully continuous numbering from south to north 1-21. I notice that in your map the numbering rolls over. Is this a limitation of station objects in RR or just a readability thing?
