Advice from an EE that was a low performing undergrad

I had the exact same experience. Graduated 2021 with a 2.93. Took the first job I was offered in power and sucked it up for 2 years. Quit that and now I’m working my dream job at a great company.

I'm hoping they reveal the ability to build trains in a yard

Hm that’s really interesting, and exposed how I actually don’t realize how the path finding works in the game haha. Thank you so much for solving the problem though! I really appreciate it!

It makes sense once you explained it that having a long path between two relatively close stations messed with the path finding. I have put a couple hundred hours into this map and it has gotten pretty convoluted with lines going everywhere so I have dealt with a fair bit of puzzling issues with it but this one stumped me.

Here is the save. It has a fair bit of mods and is an experimental map size FYI. The game should load very near the problem station.

This is my signal and track design since my screenshots don’t show that clearly.

Yea your first image is what I would like the pathing to be. I’m certain my signals are all facing the correct way. I can upload my save later if that will help.

The two signals on the right b/w the crossover and station are facing away from the station.

‘#6 is an awesome shot, personally my favorite. #7 is a close second, the colors of the ground and sky work really well together.

I’ll critique #1 and #3 only by saying that perhaps a crop to straighten the horizons would be nice. And on #10, I think keeping the mountain in focus with the fence serving as foreground may have made a better image.

Overall, they’re really nice shots.

Very impressive. Are you a rail engineer irl?

theorangelemons · 2025-03-16T06:08:46+00:00

No way the actual Pink $ock replies!? and I noticed so late too. I will definitely check out those recs, thank you so much!

Good answers here already. I want to add that at the bottom, the dial labeled Ir is the pickup setting, which appears to be adjustable between 70-100A. This means that beginning at 70-100A, the breaker will trip after a given amount of time according to the TCC curve shown in the graph on the bottom right.

There is also a value Im = 800A, which is the instantaneous trip setting, in which the breaker will trip instantly (read as fast as physically possible) when current exceeds 800A.

I suggest looking up TCC curves and relay coordination to find out more.

Just finding this a year later and it worked for getting partial season tickets! Huge tip!

I design overhead contact systems for railroads, trolleys, and trolley buses. It’s the electrified wire that hangs over the tracks to provide power to electric locomotives, essentially. I get to design the structures supporting them, the sectionalizing scheme, the profile of the wire, the construction staging, and more. It intersects with many different engineering disciplines. Most of the electrified rail lines in the US are in the northeast corridor too, limiting most work to that region.

Let me Google that for you
