-Thanks Pete. Btw, this route is looking great. Not quite my era but I'd still love to drive some trains on it! Thanks again and keep up the good work.

Joe,That's not my era either, I am 51, but when I decided to recreate this proto route, I just realised....what's left today if it is not only the tracks and one station......In the 50's the steam era was ending but you had stations, watertank, coal towers, sidings.......and so one. So this was much more rich in term of ''railway stuff''. I admit, and because I was born after this era as I did not see these things with my eyes, it is much more complicated to build and it takes much more time and research that making a railroad of the 21st century. This is a choice I do not regret but, I did not think it would take so much time.
Cheers,

Thanks Jack,Taylor, STLF.....and all others for your appreciation.

RE Post #268 Rail4Pete,

Again more superb screenshots from your route. Due to that I am becoming most interested in steam age era CN/CP.
An investment with K & L Trainz is in hand!
Many Thanks. evilcrow

Re Post #278 Rail4Pete.

Again excellent shots, Pierre.
Makes one want to build a time-machine and actually be there.

Cheers evilcrow.
