Hey guys. so yeah, I'm an old hand at Trainz... and now kinda need your help to track (no pun intended) down some prototype info on a rare locomotive. I know, at some point in the past, another user was working on making a model of this particular locomotive, but abandoned the project due to not...

So, I took a test the other day to get hired on with Trax, Utah (well salt lake city's) Rail Transit authority. When I showed up to take the test which you have to pass to be hired. So I wander into the room, seeing all number of people that look nervous and such, though I have this big grin...

Well... that's different. Note, the axles are still on it, and it looks like the wheels are actually supporting some of the weight. Dunno bout you, but this is just BEGGING to be modeled.

I kid. As I understand it, blown turbo led to a runaway engine that started to eat its own lubricating oils.

Also titled, how NOT to get the forum members angry at you, or your route removed from the DLS. I have, in all honesty, been thinking about posting this for some time now. Years in fact. However, I worried that by doing it, I would in doing so anger some of the newer members of the forum...

Noticed this recently, and it only seems to apply to a few models, so I figured I'd post it here. When trying to download models from the DLS (in particular the Plymouth) I find that it gets to the full content of the download, and then stops. Even tried through .ftp, and I still can't get the...

It's going to cost them a good bit to fix this, talking with some of the public relations guys, but for now it's rather amusing to railfains and historians alike. When creating their new streetcar line, they decided to pay homage to the railroads that built the area. This particular streetcar...

What do you get the railfan that has everything? Why not stay here: http://www.gn441.com/ GN 441 is the only known locomotive to have been converted into a luxury living quarters for a hotel...

Ran across this while looking for photos of coal operations.

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865589969/TRAX-train-collides-with-detached-car-from-another-train.html Some notes on this, as I am working on a donation ware route based on the Trax transit system. This accident occurred at a point where the Trax service comes around a long sweeping...

Why is TS12 listed when far as I know I've never actually had it?

Had to pick up my paycheck today from Ogden Utah, and ended up getting lost and wandering around. I did see something that intrigued me, which I'm going to note here. In ogden, there's this HUGE Farmer's Co-op grain mill. Emphasis on huge. In any case the bus stop I needed was next to this...

Hey guys. Just some notes. Computer imploded, lost all my work, and then some things changed. In less than a week, I will be on a bus to Utah for a job, and at the end of that tenure I plan on returning to Trainz with a vengeance. I'm poking around in 2006 to kill some time, but expect to be...

Enjoy!

While fighting with getting my second HDD working (I think I know what's wrong with it) I decided that I'd take a break from modeling. I do have a promised route to finish, but it's on hold till I can get that drive working. While looking around, I decided to find cars and locomotives that...

Just a note guys. My computer fell apart. Power supply went out, and then one of the HD's died. I've got to rebuild things, so It may be a while before I get back to work with trainz. Just an fyi.

You know that's a question we tend to face. Now, as I rebuild one of my own old payware routes to freeware, I have to wonder if I'm putting too much detail in the thing.

Just looking for a particular, if unique type of car. I know there are TTX flats floating around, but I was wondering if there was a set that allowed for the cross car loading. What I mean is three trailers distributed over two flats.

Hey guys. This has been bugging me for years now, and I finally decided that maybe I'd take it to the forums here. Maybe someone might have photos or know what I'm talking about. Here's the deal: Several years ago while looking at photos of logging routes, I happened across a curious photo...
