    Aston Heights - Small Switching layout

    I like that it has a waterway and some street running.

    2 Hours of continuous mountain climb with zig zags and tunnels

    There at 8:16, that kind of narrow ledge on the mountainside train running and car driving make me nervous. I'm quite happy to currently live in rolling hills instead of mountains! Which is kind of funny since 2 of my 3 freelance railroads are set in mountains and one even has mountain in its...

    This was not a nice weekend! I replaced two hard drives and a power supply...

    Hmm, can't say now if I did or not. This defective body was being a bit difficult to get along with yesterday afternoon and night after doing okay in the AM, might have read that 2013 as 2023. Lightning is powerful stuff.

    Glad it eventually got solved and fixed.

    Can they fix the CM search?

    Won't work with most if not all 2-8-0 because the cylinders sit very close to the leading driver and on a 4-8-0 or a 4-anything with outside cylinders (inside cylinders are sometimes a bit of a different ballgame) there needs to be a gap between drivers and cylinders to allow space for rear axle...

    Can they fix the CM search?

    Without that text it looked to be snarky mocking.

    Can they fix the CM search?

    Another factor in searches by steam locomotive wheel arrangement is that not everyone on planet Earth used/uses the same system. Some counted the wheels, for a 4-8-0 Some counted the axles, for a 2-4-0 (which a search would lump in with the wheel counters' 2-4-0 which would be a 1-2-0 in the...

    Can they fix the CM search?

    Have you looked? Why are you asking us instead of taking 23 seconds to look for yourself? But, hey, it is the Christmas season so I'll be generous and do your work for you. This time. And this highlights a huge problem with searches - the item names and detailed descriptions both say nothing...

    In limbo, but maybe found a new interests

    Oh, talking about that -- I live in a midwestern farm burg which has 2 truck stops along the nearby interstate. I wanted to find something, somewhere, with the light green color desired for my On30, aka O16.5, locomotives: a light green somewhere in the neighborhoods of NY Central's jade and...

    In limbo, but maybe found a new interests

    Sounds like a plan. :) I'm a many decades builder of plastic model kits but never could get a showroom finish on an automobile so I stuck to stuff which is okay with mud being stuck to it, THAT look I could do and do well. :LOL: Also build/built balsa and tissue planes, scale model trains...

    Game minimum requirements

    Hmm, ❓ I wonder if "TS New age" is a translator rendering of Trainz A New Era, TANE, since googling train simulator new age is getting results but not that result, and is showing TANE instead. But anyway, I still use Trainz A New Era on a computer which is about 8 years old and TANE does enough...

    Have they fixed the steam locomotives yet?

    Although some health things have made my extra sensitive to sounds, seems I've luckily avoided this with the steam engines I'm using in TANE. ❓ Question - what is the potential it could be a sound effect for the turbo-generator on steam engines which have electric lights? I've run in to videos...

    Route Thumbnail

    Hmm, hadn't ever had that thought. :unsure: Might have to try it. Now, granted, I'm using TANE on a something like 8 year old PC but the last few months I've been frequently changing route thumbnails as several WIP each get a little more done on them, and that function is functioning well as...
