Got it, thanks. I thought the O scale might play into it some how. Got it now. Thanks again

...and that's where the problems start. At this point, the track should be 14" above the table which is zero height. 1 inch = .0254 meters 14inches x .0254 meters = .3556 meters I put .3556 into the track height field and this is what I get... maybe an inch! So, where am I going wrong?'][/URL]

A while ago I brought up the topic of converting Trainz height to something usable. I was told the Trainz height is in Meters. So far, so good. So... I have a model railroad track plan to varies 44" to 58" (14" difference) My math... If 1 inch = .0254 meters I would raise the track 14 x .0254...

Colorado71 has his Georgetown Loop route. Nice route with nice textures

I know I read often of people doing that, so I know it can be done, but myself have no idea how. A lot has changed with the newer Trainz, so I'm not even sure if it's still possible. Hopefully someone will stop by who can help you/

Looks fantastic!

I couldn't agree more... The mines to M.U. with the mines, tunnels and bridges will be a lot more interesting. I'm 67 and have been riding the tourist train longer then I can remember. First with my parents, then on my own as an adult. To be honest. I've riden it so many times, it falls into the...

If I have a physical layout in my basement and build a structure for it, that structure will be unique to my layout. There's nothing wrong with having the same mindset in the digital world. It does "get old" seeing some little station used over and over again, Especially if that station is...

I always use imgbb, then chose bbcode , full linked, then just paste that link into your message field. After you do it once or twice, it's quick.

Thanks everyone. I think I'll just stay in '19. I just don't see it would be worth the jump. I can't believe they haven't revised those 10m dig holes. I rarely use cab mode, so I just drop a black plane in the portal and forget it.

I'm too old to learn new tricks, so the new surveyor is of no interest to me. It looks way too complicated and real life issues has my head in a tiolet swirl right now anyway. but I am interested in the small grid function. Is this ability a frame killer that needs to be used sparingly? Does it...

I thought this was going under the USA sub-forum. Feel free to relocate if desired...thanks

I just thought I'd share a couple shots of a layout I've been playing with for the last year or so. It started life from the Hungry Horse trackplan and morphed into this, Carrizo Gorge Narrow Gauge Located deep in Southern Californa, near the Mexican border , the railroad provides services...

Radu closed down his site and moved all his stuff to the DLS. I'll contact him and ask him to check in. Done...email sent.

Well, I did clone the truck and renamed it unique to these cars. After a little fiddling with the coach down .2 and trucks up .2 seemed to hit the nail on the head! Thanks for the tip. "Teach a man to fish, and he can feed himself!" '][/URL]
