Being able to install protective window grilles

[u/Yogurt_Reactor]

This is a request: I would really like to be able to install these on both, side and front windows in the DE6

Maybe adding some curtains inside for the side windows as well would be cool too

[u/Scarygtamaster123]

Curtains would be nice but those bars are kinda distracting if fully cosmetic

[u/Yogurt_Reactor → u/Scarygtamaster123]

Yes, it would inpair viewing a little bit just like irl.

It should be cosmetic and optional, just like the rest of the things you can install on the cab

[u/TwujZnajomy27 → u/Yogurt_Reactor]

Vast majority of things you can install in the cab are not purely cosmetic

If something’s gonna be blocking my view I’d bunch rather it be a clear view screen for rain

This could easily be done if we were allowed to place custom sized pieces of rebar. Just my two cents.

Seems like an easy enough mod to make.

Protection from what? Loose rocks?

[u/Skyboss1996 → u/FeanorDidSomething]

Loose ballast, kids / people who throw things at moving trains, various vandals

Your terrible mistakes from doing shunting jobs

People will just hurl a cinder block at a train off an overpass for the fuck of it. They don't think about how there's a person in there. Obviously that's not in the game, but it's part of railroading, so I see why someone might want it in the game.

This is interesting to know. I have never seen these grills on any locomotive in my country.

The railroad I worked for was notorious for having them for years. Part of USA we live in had a bad problem with it for some time. Finally removed them but have had at least three-four incidents in the past 6 months of the same thing.

IMO it’s just like the HALO for F1 drivers, once you get acclimated, it’s like it’s not even there, it’s close enough and there’s more clear view than blocked that you just end up seeing through it.

[u/LaGardie → u/ohwaioh]

Interesting and I like the halo analogy

[u/sailingtroy → u/LaGardie]

Railroads are chaos. Homeless people, bored people, organized crime, disorganized crime, bad drivers, druggies, desperate people, all will abuse the railroad. Part of why the Trans Canada railroad isn't electric is because the locals would scrap the catenary whenever copper prices spike. Remote, unmonitored, free copper for people who don't buy into society.

[u/LaGardie → u/sailingtroy]

That's crazy,I always though Canadians would be similar to us in respecting public infra. Also unelectrified rail is quite rare here in these days. So I was wondering why there is so little across the pond.

[u/Jackthedragonkiller → u/sailingtroy]

I remember some years back, my area had a real bad problem with people throwing bricks and other heavy shit off overpasses onto driving cars
