Just a little something to get my skills up for the Mt Barker Junction - Victor Harbor project. :)

Edit: Tried to edit the title for an image size warning, but couldn't.

Did you make that bridge? Anyway, I think the route looks great, and I agree there is such thing as too much detail.....

Thanks.

The bridge is built in to TRS2006, under "NSW Girder bridge" in the tracks menu (there is also various bridges to join up to this track/bridge in the buildings menu). The concrete pylon's are under the track object menu.

I like a lot of detail, but all you really need is enough to make it believable and real.

Considering the large pixels in the screenshot you could argue that there's even 'too little' detail...

Most of it's built in - the rest I got off of a website (which I cannot remember now) :)

I know the feeling about too much detail :) Sadly, I'm told much of this doesn't show on the downloaded version of my route :(
