I trust there is a beefy subwoofer in there somewhere.

Everything looks farther apart then it should be... could just be the perspective, but something looks off...

Also there's no way I would sit in front of that control stand unless you paid me haha  :D

I think it’s the perspective, and lack of a seat. And I had the same thought about getting paid!
Also, the fancy snack jar is a nice touch. I’ll have to bring one with me next trip and see what the conductor has to say about it!

It makes an official BNSF simulator seem so sad…

That looks like most of CP's sims too, we do have one that is actually in a GE cab, its kind of neat. Most of them are in tiny closets tho.

I hated the sims, they never felt right to me for some reason.

Here's a couple videos. (Along with lots of cringe worthy manager content)

If that’s an official one, I am disappointed… ours are required to have six degrees of freedom. Couple of years ago we were training and the other guy decided to see how long the steering accumulator would last by taxiing all over the airport. Nauseating experience.

I like the scenery on that CP simulator - flat green ground with random trees stuck in it!  Looks like a beginner's model railroad.
