Australian screenshots

Thanx Muliebuck, I have also done some 2foot cane stuff that I sent out for testing and haven't heard a thing, so I should release them then.:hehe:

I sent you some feedback in an email a long time ago, did you not get it?

I haven't been able to do much Trainz wise for awhile, too much work.
from memory i got some of it into TRS04, the cane bins, the red loco failed
none of the bogeys went across to '04. :'(

If you do release them, if it's not too much to ask

Please consider a TRS'04 release so everyone could use these beauties
Maybe put it to a vote.

Torana:)
 
something a little different.
how many of you out there know why Evans Set 26 was painted green?



1488 sits at the head of Evans Set 26 at Roma St

Answer: it was painted green for the Annual Brisbane Exhibition, it retained this colour for several years until an accident forced replacement cars to come in and the set reverted back to original colours.

cheers

ghosty

and yes i have dreddmans approval to try this project.
 
Probably going off topic, but I want to ask a question of mainly people who've been living in Brisbane since the 70s.

I remember as a kid Ascot Taxis of Brisbane had a green and gold livery. To this day, I still remember seeing green and gold HQs, XBs etc. The livery was sort of in triangles, green with a yellow triangle down the side, on the bonnet and boot.

I was a toddler when these things were around, I think they were gone by early 80s. Ascot changed to a blue and white livery on the XD, XEs etc.

Ascot Taxis was taken over by Black and White.

Off topic, but I make cars so it is something that I would consider making, will make some taxis if I can get some god pics. Need to some how take pics of a stationery cab while the owner isn't around. Front, side rear shots would be good.:)

Sorry I have only done these for 06, as I get the best results from 06 onwards.
 
I think I woke a sleeping dragon Norm *chuckles* nah, seriously, glad to see Bruce back :)
Well I have a lot of nearly finished models here and some finished, just trying to work out a few small issues to get them just right. Got to work out how andi06 get's those bogies to change and an update of my emu's will come too.
And I have a lot of 3 foot 6 stuff too.
 
Hi Col,

Those cars are looking really nice. I'm glad your selecting several 1960's vintage too.

PS this is a 'test' post in disguise; to see if Craig gets it.:)
 
I get bored, I get creative (ten minutes work)

Its very simple to do - two 'hill' displacements opposing each other to form the valley, make a small river 'cutting' at the bottom, lay the track in a sort of 'bending' type way (basically, it skirts the edges of the hills), add some trackside scenery and such (grass, telegraph poles, etc), texture it with some random textures that look nice, and put a 'forest' spline about 1/3 the way 'up' the hill and there you have it :)
 
Hi all... here's a screenshot of my newest creation for the Cranbourne line... it needs a few little flaws fixed...namely the roof...but appart from that...it's gorgeous!! :)

Xtrap is seen departing Cranbourne platform 1. Renovations of the station are apparent, as the chairs and bins are missing from platform 2.

Cheers!
Ausrail.
