This mod changes a few things on the Boston to Worcester route to improve the driving experience.
F40PH pak (BOW_F40PH_EP)
Fixed headlight brightness.
Bi-Level cab car pak (BOW_BiLevel_EHCFix)
Remaps the hold brake lever to the indy brake on Raildriver, rather than bail off.
Release history
11.13.24: First Release.
11.17.24: Fixed the Bi-Level cab car Raildriver config.
12.10.24: Removed the engine audio fix as it's now fixed in the base game (quicker than I would've expected it to be fixed...).
Requirements
Take charge of passenger traffic in dashing MBTA Purple and run through the commuter suburbs of Central Massachusetts. Operate the sleek HSP46 on the bustling rails out of Boston South and out onto the busy Framingham/Worcester Line in Train Sim World 5!

Spacey, do you think you could make a patch for the single level coaches for Boston-Worcester? They are all numbered wrong. They are currently in the 1800s for the cab cars and 800s for the coaches while they should really be in the 1500s and 500s
Specifically, 1500-1533 for the cab cars and 500-532 for the coaches
Nevermind, looks like somebody else just got around to doing it
Thank you, this is a must have to fix the F40's atomic bright headlights!
Do you think it would be possible to change the brightness of the indicator lights in the cab? I mean the lights like the doors closed, brake release, ACSES box lights, etc. They're so bright that the text on them cannot be read at all.
Is there a reason why they didn't give this to us? Is there any aspect that's unfinished? Seems very strange to have it in the files, but just not release it.
Because they do not match SimuGraph. Matt Peddlesden has explained this here:

do you think you'd be able to make the headlight casting the correct colors. the f40 casts an incandescent yellow and the hsp46 casts an led white, when it's supposed to be the complete opposite.
Thank you so much for doing this. Is there any way to apply this to the Boston Sprinter version? I hate hearing the old sounds from the the old ones layered in. Thanks
It would be easier for me to fully replace the BPE one with the BOW one. Currently I have no plans to do this though.
I would love to just replace the Boston Sprinter version with the new one all together.. Is there a way to do that? I'm a complete noob with the editor.
Along with what CullenTrain said, can you also make it so the HEP is louder like it is in real life?
If I ever update this mod in the future, I'll look into that.
Is it possible to make the MBB Cab car horn louder (CTC-3) it is much quieter than the BPE version
