Just one more... 23 with another Ben Neal gem, the USRA 0-6-0 at the Inglenook engine shed. Best, smyers

Fearing no radius... Best, smyers

Don't we wish! Best, smyers

Here's a couple of variations... 23 is "out of the box" with only texture mods and ARN, 27 has brass bell and whistle, can headlights, pilot mounted light, a shade lighter windows and doors. Also raised lod distances for the windows as they were vanishing way too soon. That's done in the mesh...

Thanks Claus old friend, always a pleasure. In fact, I stand corrected everyone, as there is indeed an ARN position on the oil tank... ...there are, actually, 10 ARN configurations available. Number 3 has a dome position, too. UP5521, you can change headlights, bells and whistles by...

Right, Piere. The route I'm using here was actually put together for that version, which proved to be a disappointment for me, anyway. I never cared for it. This docksider is excellent to the max... Another view. BTW, the number is painted on the tank as there is no ARN there. I just enter...

A quick pic of this outstanding freeware steam engine by Ben Neal... ...on the DLS, a new version of the ever-popular B&O C-16 "Docksider". Superior in every way, including modelling, texturing, ease of use to re-skin and so on. This is a copy of the "Undecorated Weathered" version, lettered...

Good try, Piere old friend. Even though this route is what, 4 years old, it still looks fabulous. Best, smyers

Well, I tried a steam-era street running route for a while but found there were too many obstacles, mainly the lack of a proper track asset. I used RTRAX, which was good for the time, but still would not form switches properly, lacked the girder rail, and couldn't do single point switches. and...

Thought I'd better run a train or two on this Inglenook monstrosity before going any further with it... Thankfully, seems to work OK. Best, smyers

Howdy Piere, The coach is a Hudson & Western model from K&L, relettered for my Norfolk & North Shore. For $8.00 you get the coach, baggage, combine and observation, plus a little H&W 2-8-0 and a few freight cars as well. Best, smyers

Mixed Train Daily... The route de jour for this kind of service. Top drawer. Best, smyers

Big Valley is utterly fantastic, especially for us small engines and short trains enthusiasts... Very nicely done. Many thanks smyers

This seems like a thoroughly enjoyable steam era route, though I do appear to be missing a tree or forest item... The CM says I have no missing assets. Can anyone tell me what this is? It'd be much appreciated. Never mind, got it fixed. It was a Speedtree item. Many thanks, smyers

<kuid2:61109:100001:1 VFUK Textile Mill 01 by captain_scarlet. Shows as built-in. It's old. Or did you mean the foreground building? That's <kuid:439337:104303> MSGSAPPER's Old Drug Store. On the DLS Best, smyers

Lovely shots, Claus. Whodathought I'd actually miss winter. Meanwhile, Inglenook moving along... This is the whole switching layout. Not much to it, but it can be a shunting nightmare. Track in the foreground is the headshunt or switchback. Scenery will not go much further to the left as it...

That's exactly what I've been doing, Forester1. I didn't plan on releasing any routes, so the issue never came up over here. Some assets have rolling built-in, so it's no worry. I almost bought TRS22 yesterday, but they unexpectedly jacked the price back up to full retail so never mind, not at...

Hey evilcrow, Well, I may wrap it up unfinished and send it off to Claus who has TRS22 just to see what would happen. A great idea, Craig. But I do believe that any other TRS19 would show them upright as you said. I'll keep on it, though. Best, smyers

Well, evilcrow, that was the intent originally, but I've made a faux pas that I don't think can be fixed. That is I've assigned rolling abilities to the config file of many of the assets so that they would look more natural resting on a hillside or randomly tossed into a junkpile. So, while a...

Hey Claus!! Yep, that's it. Looks pretty good. I use it just for trainspotting, watch 'em go around, much like the original Norm's layout in O-scale 3 rail. Well, I'll approach the "War Department" to see if she'll approve of TRS22. The Surveyor does have some advantages, and I do have room for...
