Kawasaki M8

Description
The first Kawasaki M8 cars were delivered to Metro-North in 2011, and in the following decade they have become the railroad's most distinctive equipment. Built for flexibility, these cars have both pantographs and third rail shoes in order to be used both in Connecticut (where third rail power is illegal) and in Grand Central Terminal (where third rail power is mandatory).

This asset for NIMBY Rails features high-quality art rendered from accurate 3D models of the M8, and comes fully featured with 5 liveries, including an accurate Metro-North one. All values except costs are derived from real-world information about the locomotives and cars, and costs are a best-guess for game balance. If these trains don't play right in game, please let me know and I'll adjust the costs until they're right.

@hy/fix8 -

I have no plans to update any of my NIMBY Rails content. You are more than welcome to create your own patch to modernize the asset, and thanks for doing so!

Hi! Would you consider adding more stats to this train to bring it in line with current workshop standards? Things like accurate acceleration, braking, and enabling "allow_player_composition", in addition to updating the multiple unit configuration to the new Schema 2 with extended composition options?
If it's not something you're interested in I'd like to get your permission to make the tweaks myself and publish a "patch" mod, correcting the values but requiring this original mod as a dependency.

Yo, can you make the M7/M9's?

Wonderful model! Hopefully we can see more of your works for this game

Loved your American trains in Cities Skylines. Glad you're making trains for NIMBY rails too!
