We'll need them to auto number..because will need 100's

This might help anybody who cares to skin up some stock for the LS&I.

Plant about 1 million more trees :hehe: .....another mine to build a few more industries. Lumber Mill, Wood chips. ect...ect.

One thing that really surprised me is when I closed in the track with woods the loco's seamed to be on fire, even at 40 mph....looked like a Nascar race...so speed limit is down to 35...big heavy freights on steep grades don't need to be in a hurry anyway..

If you download the dem from the download station you can see smooz had marked out the old Tracks back into Marquette to the Lower Harbor Ore Docks and over to the east to Harvey, MI. I put all that rail back into this route...so the setting in time would be not today. Looking at maps that rail looked like it belonged to our beloved CNR a route up from Escanaba.

So a lot of that beefing up the yard in Marquette, a new interchange to the east....will help with traffic...ie it gives this route 3 portals....Autrain, Escanaba, & Michigamme.
