CSX Q453 with Warbonnet Dash 9 [CP025]

To the delight of South Florida railfans, not only is the daily inbound CSX mixed freight train Q453 running several hours early—which means a rare daylight arrival—but it also features a BNSF Dash 9 in Warbonnet livery among the power. The early arrival places the train on the South Florida Rail Corridor at the tail end of the afternoon rush hour, so you'll be following closely behind a southbound Tri-Rail commuter train. Be alert for restricting signals!

AI traffic based on regular Tri-Rail schedules. Inspired by the real life Q453 which ran on May 5, 2017.

Diffculty: Medium
Duration: 80 minutes

This scenario requires the following DLC:

- Miami - West Palm Beach Route Add-On
- BNSF Dash 9 Loco Add-On (for equipment)
- CSX Hanover Subdivision: Hanover - Hagerstown Route Add-On (for equipment)
- Miami Commuter Rail F40PHL-2 Loco Add-On (for AI traffic)

Please note that the signal at Deerfield North Main 1 will erroneously display a clear aspect (green/red) when the correct aspect should be approach (yellow/red). Upon passing this signal, a pop up will remind you to slow down to medium speed (30 MPH). This will prevent you from encountering a surprise red signal just past the Deerfield Beach station. All other signals have been verified to be working correctly.
