applegathc's work


P55 trundles up the connection from the CP transcon main to the PMNR to Garland jct,
where it will run around its train and head south on the Steel Pit branch.













​
 

Work on the downtown Lancer industrial spur that CP serves, reaching a scrap metal location,
a general manufacturing location, as well as a petro-chem facility.

Yes. The track is a little bumpy. ;)

Hi,

Just got back into trainz, so it's been a while I have visit this thread --- Looking great -- I don't spend much time on Earth, but if you ever upload your route, I might have to take shuttle back to Earth! :wave: --- It looks so clean, not much cluster!!! :D

King regards

CP #272 heads downhill into Monroe with 6067, NS 6778, DME 6359, DME 6081, CP 6027 enroute to Bedford Park Yard in Central City.
The NS and DME combo are returning to Bedford Park to be put on 281/282 to Muskaugee and back. They were sent out on #275 to Paloma City and have returned a week later.

a) CP M74 fetches late cars that were sitting in Julianna for the past week
and brings them back to Monroeville for the RailNet to pick up.

b) The UP frack sand train hurtles down the Farnham Sub with an SD60M/SD40 combo.

c) An older shot, CP 502 heads east with the class leader SOO SD60.

stunning work as usual.

2 things though:
Those fields need a fence! Don't know when to stop shooting at the neighbors live stock (Or your daughters boyfriend) without a fence! Helps keep said live stock off the rails (And you from tying said boyfriend to the rails). Also keeps the Accountants and the IRS happy, they like boarders....

2: Was this based on a specific place in Real Life? Or is this protolanced/Fiction? Apologies if you've answered this before, I just can't seem to remember ^^;.

Maybe not in Michigan, but all over eastern WA and Oregon they do...... Though I suppose this would get back down to my second question regardless.

Based off of rural Illinois/Iowa with a taste of South Dakota bluffs around the Lennox area. I hope I'm doing this right.

Well, that depends, doesn't it? Some places have updated their real estate and some older folks leave up fences/other infrastructure from generations past...especially out in the country. Not everything is to-date out in the bush. :)
 
I took he meant it as needing "new" fence, there's all kind of old fences here. Our farm still has some left from when my grandpa would turn the cows out, but a lot of today's farmers here in the mid west remove it due to the risk of getting machinery caught in it.

As a person from Illinois, I can confirm there are very few fences around fields. Everywhere around my city is basically a corn field. There is your road, or rail, a few feet of grass, and then a field. You've captured that pretty well, I think!

Awesome stuff, man!

Cheers,
SM
