Use a ruler? Google Maps and Mapquest both have a scale on them that tells you how far two set points are at the current zoom level.

Using the Google Earth-Tools/Ruler/Metric/Kilometers/Path mode, you can draw lines or paths on a map.

Using the MS Snipping tool you can capture a photo screenshot to your Pictures album of the map.

And Trainz has a ruler that you can place, and measure the same length

for noob's - in SURVEYOR click on the TOOLS tab (looks like a wrench/spanner) and the ruler can be placed and moved with the top tools.

Use distance. Find the distance between towns Wilmington and Newark and in Trainz, place a marker for one town, then use the ruler to place the second town marker at the correct distance.

You will have to find the angle (NSEW) from one to another, and do the same in Trainz. That way you will get correct shadows etc for the time of day.
